Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS). This volume covers all aspects of sustainable materials engineering on a fundamental and technological level, with focus on the materials recycling related industries. It addresses both technological and sustainability issues related with materials recycling and value adding waste or low-grade materials as well as reinforcing materials for products.

This book contains articles which were introduced at the International Conference on Sustainable Materials (ICoSM 2018, 16 April, 2018, Bangkok, Thailand) and presents to readers the results of the innovative research in the area of the sustainable materials - one of the most dynamics directions of research in the modern materials science. Polymers, Composites, Biobased Materials, Functional Materials, Semiconductors, Ceramics, Alloys, Building Materials, Materials Recycling, Wastewater Treatment Materials Science.

Concrete is a material used widely in building and construction applications worldwide; hence, it plays a significant role in the global construction sector. Cement is a major component of concrete and is used in construction applications, either on its own or as a composite with other materials, to improve workability, durability, strength, weight, and shrinkage. However, cement and concrete production and use have adverse environmental effects. Thus, great efforts have been made to produce eco-friendly concrete. This book examines several aspects of sustainable concrete technologies, including new forms of concrete as well as different approaches for creating sustainable cement.
