abstract = "This work provides a comprehensive overview of the utilisation of magnesium-rich wastes and by-products as precursors in magnesium phosphate cement (MPC), focusing on their influence on the fresh and hardened-state properties of the resulting cementitious materials. The physicochemical aspects of different types of waste-derived precursor sources, as well as the technological aspects of preparing MPC based on them, are summarized. The features of the chemical and mineral composition of magnesium-rich waste and by-products used in MPC are systematized and scrutinized. The reaction-process parameters and the main factors influencing the performance of such MPC are discussed. In addition, the main challenges and future prospects associated with the use of alternative precursors for MPC production-including technological, environmental, and economic considerations-are also presented. Finally, the key issues in this field that require further research are highlighted.",

N2 - This work provides a comprehensive overview of the utilisation of magnesium-rich wastes and by-products as precursors in magnesium phosphate cement (MPC), focusing on their influence on the fresh and hardened-state properties of the resulting cementitious materials. The physicochemical aspects of different types of waste-derived precursor sources, as well as the technological aspects of preparing MPC based on them, are summarized. The features of the chemical and mineral composition of magnesium-rich waste and by-products used in MPC are systematized and scrutinized. The reaction-process parameters and the main factors influencing the performance of such MPC are discussed. In addition, the main challenges and future prospects associated with the use of alternative precursors for MPC production-including technological, environmental, and economic considerations-are also presented. Finally, the key issues in this field that require further research are highlighted.
