Preface

The book entitled Advances in Sustainable Materials & Technology is a
conglomerate of the research work and studies highlighted by different authors
and researchers, with a clear focus on the core issues of sustainable
development and the best of the materials with lesser environmental impact.
It focuses on numerous relevant areas and innovative technologies, such
as key construction materials and production, materials with lower energy
impact, production processes encouraging lesser use of ever-depleting natural
raw materials, minimization of the generation of Green House Gases (GHG),
development of new environmentally friendly materials and agents,
characterization of the properties of construction materials, and methodologies
applied in the building of structures.
The construction industry, and the materials consumed by it, have a huge
global environmental impact that spreads across all sectors and walks of life.
Researchers and academicians working in Science and Technology sectors
have always strived and worked hard to lessen the impact on the environment
through many breakthrough innovations. This book will definitely help in
achieving environmental, economic, and social benefits for all stakeholders of
the construction industry.
