MATERIALS SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING RESEARCH GROUP (MASERG)
The main areas of research include: the development of new materials for energy applications; stabilization/solidification of hazardous industrial solid waste, soils and sediments; the preparation of concrete and geopolymer materials based on fly ash, blast furnace slag, foundry slag, slag from the incineration of municipal solid waste. Other research lines deals with the durability of the products obtained through the formation of calcium silicate and hydrated aluminum trisulphate, even in the presence of chlorides and sulphates; ine
