This research studies the potential for using waste ash from industrial and agricultural by-products as a pozzolanic material. Classified fly ash (FA) and ground rice husk ash (RA) were the materials used. Water requirement, compressive strength and porosity of cement mortar were investigated. Test results indicated that FA and RA (waste ash) have a high potential to be used as a good pozzolanic material. The water requirement of mortar mix decreases with the increases in fly ash content. For ground rice husk ash (RA), the water requirement of mortar mix increases with the increases in rice husk ash content. In addition, the reduction in porosity was associated with the increase in compressive strength.

This study aims to determine the condition of the physical properties of the soil and maize yields given rice husk biochar in Lape Village, Aesesa District. The continuous use of inorganic fertilizers will have a negative impact on the soil such as destroying the physical properties of the soil and reducing maize yields. Therefore, this research is a descriptive study. Determination of soil samples using purposive sampling method with the criteria of land cultivation of corn and rice husk biochar. The variables observed were soil color, structure, texture, porosity, bulk density, moisture content, temperature, humidity and maize yield. The results showed that the criteria for the physical properties of the soil in the maize cultivation area were dusty clay soil texture and categorized as S1 class, soil color was dominated by 10 YR 2/1 Black and categorized as S1 class, and soil structure was dominated by granular criteria. B0 content density value: 1.01; B2: 0.9; B3: 0.87; B4: 0.81; B4: 0.8 and categorized as S2 class, soil porosity value B0: 61.76; B1: 65.91; B2:67,18; B3: 69.41; B4; 69.89 and categorized as S1 class. Value of water content B0: 36.78; B1:41,14; B2: 40.82; B3: 35.06; B4: 39.55 and categorized into class N. temperature analysis results B0: 33.75; B1: 34.00; B2: 32.75; B3: 33.25; B4: 34.00 and can be categorized as class N. Moisture analysis results B0: 67.00; B1: 68.00; B2: 64.50; B3: 66.25; 68.00 and categorized in S1 class. And maize yields. Corn kernels yield tan-1(g) B0: 347.30; B1: 360.40; B2: 380.70; B3: 385.40; B4: 401.35. Yield of shelled corn ha-1(tons) B0: 9.26; B1: 9.61; B2: 10,15; B3: 10.28; B4: 10.70

Abstract: In this developing era concrete and cement mortar are widely used by the construction industry, with this development. Large number of industrial wastes are generated and if these wastes are not properly used it will create severe problems, keeping the environment in mind, concrete engineers are trying to find some alternative materials which will not only replaces the cement content but also improves strength of concrete. As we also know that during the manufacturing of cement large amount of Co2 is released into the environment, but if we use such material that will replace the quantity of cement content therefore indirectly, we are contributing towards the prevention of our planet from global warming and other pollutions. Also, in this research work the Rice Husk Ash is used. the rice husk ash obtained from the rice processing units, by adding this product with concrete, not only replaces the cement content but also increases the strength of concrete like compressive strength etc. The Rice husk ash was incorporated with concrete with varying percentages of 2.5% ,5% ,7.5%, & 10%. the proper codal precautions were followed during the manufacture of concrete cubes of 150x150x150mm. it was concluded that the strength of concrete increased by incorporated the rice husk ash. Keywords: Concrete, RHA, Compressive strength, Industrial wastes, Cement etc
