Abstract
Alkali activated material (AAM) is being investigated extensively as a substitute for cement in concrete
mixtures because of its potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by utilising industrial waste. When
producing yellow phosphorous using an electric furnace, phosphorous slag (PS) is an industrial waste
product that can partially replace ordinary Portland cement (OPC). The major goal of this work is to
employ PS as a binder ingredient to create alkali-activated cement. This paper presents a review to
evaluate the strength performance of Alkali Activated Phosphorous Slag (AAPS) mixtures. The specifics
of every experiment carried out during the current inquiry are described in this publication. Results of
preliminary investigations, the design of AAS concrete mixes, the technique used, the production of test
specimens, and the methods of tests carried out on AAPSC mixes, both in fresh and hardened states,
are addressed.
Keywords: Alkali activated slag, Phosphorous Slag, Strength of the materials, concrete mixes.
