The present state of the use of palm oil fuel ash (POFA) in concrete

Concrete industry consumes considerably large quantities of natural resources in addition to generating toxic gases, such as CO2, in the atmosphere. In order to achieve more sustainability in the concrete sector, research should focus on using alternative renewable resources such as palm oil waste f...
