Abstract
This research makes a significant contribution to the field of environmental management by elucidating the environmental advantages of producing nanomaterial-modified cement, specifically by incorporating ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) replaced by cement up to 81 %. To achieve this, a total of 58 distinct mixtures were meticulously formulated, with the inclusion of nanomaterials such as nano-calcite, nano-alumina, and nano-silica in small quantities to produce standard cement mortars. The compressive strength of the resulting specimens was tested at curing intervals of 2, 7, and 28 days. The data obtained from these tests were analyzed using the Group Method of Data Handling (GMDH) machine learning model. Additionally, the experimental results were further evaluated through other machine learning estimation models. This study provides eco-friendly strategies to enhance cost-effectiveness and time efficiency in the production of CEM III cement with a high slag content, offering significant benefits for both cement manufacturers and environmental sustainability.
