Abstract

- In current world scenario global warming and green house gas effect is ever-increasing and very concerning problems for humanity. In case of air pollution carbon dioxide (CO2) and oxides of the nitrogen (NOx) are two of the major pollutants which contributes in enhancing the pollution concerns. Every action of the people now needs to be in synchronization with the perspective of countering these vital problems and adopting the measures of minimizing the effect of the rising problem. From the engineering perspective concrete is crucial product which is used in construction sector for development activities of the nation across the world, which makes concrete the second most utilized product after water. If one can implement the pollution reduction concept in the pivotal product like concrete the impact and application of the concept can reach to wider population. The use of supplementary cementitious material (SCM) in the concrete can give the positive outcomes for battling with air pollution problems. The concept such as photocatalytic concrete and CO2 reducing concrete can be introduced in the construction sector. SCMs like Titanium Dioxide, Zeolite, Zinc oxide etc. shows positive outcomes for pollution reduction phenomenon. In this paper multiple literature has been studied for analyzing the role of SCMs in concrete are its pollution reduction aspects in terms of air pollution.
