Green and low-carbon materialization for dredged sediment (DS) is limited due to its low pozzolanic activity. In this study, a novel DS-based non-sintered lightweight aggregate (LWA) is developed by steel slag (SS) and fly ash (FA) activation. Process optimization is performed by the response surfaces, and the basic properties and …
