Abstract
This chapter covers a comparison between ordinary Portland cement (OPC) and geopolymer concretes against sulphuric acid attack. An intensive introduction to the topic is given. Lack of study about high strength of self-compacting geopolymer concrete (SCGC) against sulphuric acid attack is also one of the problems. In this research, slag and ceramics were used as replacement of OPC. The aim was to study the durability of SCGC against sulphuric acid attack which mainly incorporated ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBFS) and ceramics waste as a binder. Methodology of the experimental program, with emphasis on preparation of materials and mix design is described. Testing procedure of GSCC is given. Durability test for sulphuric acid resistance and cost analysis are briefly explained. In conclusion, the sulphuric acid solution had no effect on the strength of concrete and the weight after being immersed in sulphuric acid solution for 28 and 42 days.
