In recent years, a scientific shift has been observed towards the use of carbon based nano materials in different composites to enhance their mechanical and electrical properties. However, carbonaceous nano/micro inert particles synthesized through pyrolysis of agricultural and industrial wastes offer a very cost effective alternate to the commercially available carbon based materials such as carbon fibres, carbon nanotubes, graphene and graphene oxide. A comprehensive survey of reported data on the synthesis of carbon particles is presented in this article. The utilization of synthesized carbon particles as reinforcing material has also been explored together with an attempt of proposing future novel applications of synthesized carbon particles in cement based systems. In this paper, meticulous efforts have been made to overview the potential beneficial effects of synthesized carbon particles intrusions to cementitious systems for modifying/improving their mechanical characteristics.
