- Profile
-
John Provis studied Chemical Engineering and Applied Mathematics at the University of Melbourne, Australia, and was awarded a PhD in Chemical Engineering by the same institution in 2006. He moved to the University of 91直播 in 2012 as Professor of Cement Materials Science and Engineering.
He was awarded the 2013 RILEM Robert L鈥橦ermite Medal "in recognition of his outstanding contribution to the research and development of geopolymers and other construction materials", and was awarded an honorary doctorate by Hasselt University, Belgium, in 2015 to recognise his leadership in the development of geopolymers and other novel cementitious materials.
His research has been funded by the European Research Council as well as other EU sources, UK Research Councils, industry, and international funding bodies.
He is an invited TAC Expert of RILEM, a Voting Member of committees of BSI, ASTM and ACI, Editor-in-Chief of the RILEM flagship journal , Deputy Editor-in-Chief of , Associate Editor of , and Speciality Chief Editor for the .
Prof. Provis has also been appointed as a Visiting Professor at Lule氓 University of Technology, Sweden, in the Building Materials division.
- Research interests
-
John's research centres on the development, characterisation and exploitation of advanced and non-traditional cement and concrete technology. Many projects involve alkali-activated and geopolymer binders, for use in construction, infrastructure and waste immobilisation applications.
The range of topics covered include:
Construction materials
- Geopolymers 鈥 chemical and engineering properties
- Chemistry of alkali aluminosilicate gels
- Other alkali-activated and Portland cement-hybrid concrete systems
- Rheology control
- Waste valorisation by alkali-activation
Waste immobilisation in cementitious materials
- Novel cementing binders for nuclear and radioactive wastes: alkali and alkali-earth silicates, aluminates and sulfoaluminates
- Immobilisation of heavy metals
- Mass transport properties of cemented wasteforms
Testing of cementitious materials
- Synchrotron-based and neutron-based methods for analysis of cements
- Advanced spectroscopic and microscopic techniques
- Durability testing methodologies for novel cements
- Validation of tests and performance prediction
- Performance-based standardisation
Silica chemistry in complex aqueous environments
- Speciation and electrolyte solution chemistry
- Dissolution mechanisms of silicate minerals and glasses

Key projects:
- Development and characterisation of novel cements and concretes, including collaboration with leading producers of geopolymer cement and concrete nationally and internationally
- Durability analysis and standardisation of alkali-activated cements and concretes, including leadership of RILEM Technical Committees
- Innovation and scientific insight related to cementation of nuclear wastes
- Local structural analysis of aluminosilicates via advanced beamline techniques, leading to the first detailed nanoscale understanding of the chemistry of geopolymer binders, and to the availability of novel tools and methodologies for nanostructural analysis
