Evaluation of rice husk biochar influence as a partial cement replacement material on the physical, mechanical, microstructural, and radiation shielding properties of ordinary concrete

Abstract This study investigated the viability of rice husk-derived biochar (RHB) as a partial substitute for cement in concrete. The used RHB, characterized by a novel chemical composition abundant in silicon and aluminum oxides, was incorporated into ordinary concrete at increasing substitution ra...
