Ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) is a by-product of pig-iron production. The production of 1 t GGBS emits approximately 0.14 t CO 2 (Özbay et al., 2016), accounting for only about 16% of the CO 2 emission from cement production (Wu et al., 2020). Thus, extensive utilization of high volume GGBS to replace cement is an …
