The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of the different types of fly ash on the compressive strength properties of sintered briquettes. Thermal gravimetric (TG) analysis was carried out. The chemical composition and physical properties of the materials used were determined. Particle size distribution and microstructure elemental analyses of the materials used were carried out by a particle size analyzer (Mastersizer) and a scanning electron microscope (SEM-EDS). Following the characterization of the materials, briquettes were prepared by sintering at different temperatures. Compressive strength test results of the briquette samples indicated that briquettes with a compressive strength value of 47.45 N/mm2can be produced. The results obtained exceed the Turkish standard (TS EN 771-1) requirements (9.8–23.54 N/mm2). SEM-EDS results showed that briquette samples made with Tunçbilek (T) fly ash had a higher percentage of the glassy phase than the other briquette samples. Due to this microstructure, it results in higher compressive strength value.

By testing flexural and compressive strength at different ages, the influence of particle size distribution of slag and fly ash on the strength of LCC (low clinker cement) were systematically studied. The SEM (scanning electron microscope) and laser particle size analyzer were used to study the multi-component cementitious and dense-packing effects of LCC. The results show that the strength development of LCC4 with 30% clinker could completely meet the requirements of P.O 42.5R by varying the type, content or fineness of admixtures; based on a higher fly ash and lower clinker dosage, the strength development of LCC9 is also relatively good.

This paper presents the behavior of geopolymer concrete with small and big fibers. The aluminosilicate materials used for geopolymer concrete are fly ash and GGBS. For this study standard cube, cylinder and beam specimens are casted and tested to investigate compressive, split tensile and flexural strengths. The experimental results shows that incorporation of steel fibers for the geopolymer mixes improve the strength properties. Few models are generated to estimate the strengths with alliance of cube compressive strength.

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.

High Calcium Fly Ash

This study evaluates the effect of particle size distribution (PSD) of high calcium fly ash on high volume fly ash (HVFA) mortar characteristics. Four PSD variations of high calcium fly ash used were: unclassified fly ash and fly ash passing sieve No. 200, No. 325 and No. 400, respectively. The fly ash replacement ratio of the cementitious material ranged between 50-70%. The results show that with smaller fly ash particles size and higher levels of fly ash replacement, the workability of the mixture was increased with longer setting time. There was an increase in mortar compressive strength with finer fly ash particle size, compared to those with unclassified ones, with the highest strength was found at those with fly ash passing mesh No. 325. The increase was found due to better compactability of the mixture. Higher fly ash replacement reduced the mortar’s compressive strength, however, the rate was reduced when finer fly ash particles was used.

Plasticizing Admixture

Cement as the binding agent in the production of concrete can be replaced with active mineral admixtures. Biofuel combustion fly ash is one of such admixtures. Materials used for the study: Portland cement CEM I 42.5 R, sand of 0/4 fraction, gravel of 4/16 fraction, biofuel fly ash, superplasticizer, water. Six compositions of concrete were designed by replacing 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% 20%, and 25% of cement with biofuel fly ash. The article analyses the effect of biofuel fly ash content on the properties of concrete. The tests revealed that the increase of biofuel fly ash content up to 20% increases concrete density and compressive strength after 7 and 28 days of curing and decreases water absorption, with corrected water content by using plasticizing admixture. It was found that concrete where 20% of cement is replaced by biofuel ash has higher frost resistance.

This work aims to reveal the effects of zeolite on properties of fly ash based geopolymer under high temperature at 300 °C, 600 °C and 900 °C. The specimens were prepared by alkali activation of fly ash, which was partially replaced by two different types of zeolite at 10%, 20% and 30% by weight. The specimens were analyzed for the maximum compressive strength, weight loss percentage, XRD and SEM. The results highlighted that the percentage of weight loss increased with the ratio of zeolite replacement. The compressive strength of geopolymer with synthetic zeolite and natural zeolite at 7, 28, 60 days were similar. The high-temperature exposure resulted in the reduction in compressive strength in all proportions. At the same temperature, compressive strength of all specimens were not significantly different.
