Pozzolanic Properties

Self-compacting concrete (SCC) is a new concept of concrete mix which flows in a formwork and consolidates itself without the need for compaction. Effectively compacting concrete can be very difficult especially in areas with a high number of reinforcement. Millet Husk Ash (MHA) and Rice Husk Ash (RHA) are agricultural waste materials obtained from farm and burnt to ashes to discard them since they are environmental waste. This research is focused on finding the pozzolanic potentials of MHA and RHA as a mineral additive in SCC to see if it will improve its properties rather than discarding them as environmental waste. Laboratory investigations were carried out on normally vibrated concrete (NVC) and SCC using MHA and RHA as an additive at a 10 % replacement with cement. Workability tests were carried out following the BS specifications. ASTM 293 C was used for the Flexural Capacity test on the beam specimen. The Results of the workability tests using MHA and RHA as mineral additive are within the specified standard values. The compressive strength test also revealed that the SCC using MHA is about 12.8 % higher than the RHA and NVC at 28 days with densities of 2487.5, 2516.5 and 2437.5kg/m<sup>3</sup> respectively. The Modulus of Rupture (MoR) and Split Tensile strength for MHA is 0-19.2 % and 17.2-22.2 % higher than the RHA and NVC respectively. It was concluded that the improvement in the pozzolanic properties of MHA and RHA may be due to the content of Lime (CaO), Silica ((SiO<sub>2</sub>)), Alumina (Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>), Iron oxide (Fe<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>) being greater than 70 % and in an accordance with BS 618 code. It is concluded that the MHA and RHA can find suitable applications in the SCC as a mineral additive rather than discarding them as environmental waste.

Pozzolanic Properties

Abstract Self-compacting concrete (SCC) is an extremely flowable, non-segregating concrete that fills every corner of formwork evenly and completely by its own mass and encapsulates reinforcement without vibrating, all while retaining homogeneity. SSC’s mechanical efficiency can be enhanced by using byproducts or waste materials as cement replacements. Rice husk ash (RHA) & fly ash stay very reactive byproducts. Because of its high silica content, Fly ash and RHA have strong pozzolanic properties, used as complementary cementations material in SSC. The automatic properties and Self-compacting concrete has a high acid resistance determined. Mainly the cement is replace by fly ash & rice husk ash with three different percentages variations (10%, 20%, and 30%). In each percentage of replacement, the fly ash and RHA has equal percentages. For example, in 10% of replacement 5% of fly ash and 5% of RHA is replaced. In frequently fly ash is industrial by-product and having the pozzolanic properties. And the RHA (rice husk ash) is also a pozzolanic reactive material. Compared to the adhesive, fly ash & RHA has more silica ingredient. The self-compacting concrete was calculated for M30, and specimens are cast. Compressive strength and split tensile strength, flexural strength, and durability (acid resistance) tests are performed for 7 days, 14 days, and 28 days.

Rice husk ash (RHA) was used as a mineral additive in concrete and replaced the ordinary cement by 0-30% in this study. The fresh concrete properties, compressive strength, split tensile strength, and elastic modulus as well as the chloride permeability of concretes mixed with different RHA contents was tested. The experimental results reveal that the fluidity, the mechanical behaviors and the chloride ion resistance of rice husk ash concrete decrease with the increasing replacement rate of RHA. The particle size of RHA limits its pozzolanic activity, which indicates that the controlled burning temperature and the fineness of RHA have significant impact on the properties of rice husk ash concrete.

Rice Husk Ash (RHA) is an agricultural waste product which is produced in large quantities globally every year and difficulty involved in its disposal, RHA becoming an environmental hazard in rice producing countries. India alone produces around 120 million tons of rice paddy per year, giving around 6 million tons of rice husk ash per year. RHA can be used in concrete to improve its strength and other durability factors. So we can use RHA as a partial replacement of cement in pervious concrete. In this research (OPC) cement has been replaced by RHA accordingly in the range of 10%,20%and30%byweightofcementforconstant 0.40 water cement ratio. The compressive strength test and water absorption test was carried out for 7, 28 days. So the main aim of the investigation to study the behaviour of PERVIOUS CONCRETE while replaces the RHA with different proportions in concrete. The test results were obtained from the research which are compared with the control mix (CM).

In many rice producing countries of the world, including in Vietnam, various research aimed at using rice husk ash (RHA) as a finely dispersed active mineral additive in cements, concrete and mortars are being conducted. The effect of the duration of the mechanoactivation of the RHA, produced under laboratory conditions in Vietnam, on its pozzolanic activity were investigated in this study. The composition of ash was investigated by laser granulometry and the values of indicators characterizing the dispersion of its particles before and after mechanical activation were established. The content of soluble amorphous silicon oxide in rice husk ash samples was determined by photocolorimetric analysis. The pizzolanic activity of the RHA, fly ash and the silica fume was also compared according to the method of absorption of the solution of the active mineral additive. It is established that the duration of the mechanical activation of rice husk ash by grinding in a vibratory mill is optimal for increasing its pozzolanic activity, since it simultaneously results in the production of the most dispersed ash particles with the highest specific surface area and maximum solubility of the amorphous silica contained in it. Longer grinding does not lead to further reduction in the size of ash particles, which can be explained by their aggregation, and also reduces the solubility of amorphous silica in an aqueous alkaline medium.

The utilisation of rice husk ash (RHA) as an aluminosilicate source in fire-resistant coating could reduce environmental pollution and can turn agricultural waste into industrial wealth. The overall objective of this research is to develop a rice-husk-ash-based geopolymer binder (GB) fire-retardant additive (FR) for alkyd paint. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to design the experiments work, on the ratio of RHA-based GB to alkyd paint. The microstructure behaviour and material characterisation of the coating samples were studied through SEM analysis. The optimal RHA-based GB FR additive was formulated at 50% wt. FR and 82.628% wt. paint. This formulation showed the result of 270 s to reach 200 °C and 276 °C temperature at equilibrium for thermal properties. Furthermore, it was observed that the increased contents of RHA showed an increment in terms of the total and open porosities and rough surfaces, in which the number of pores on the coating surface plays an important role in the formation of the intumescent char layer. By developing the optimum RHA-based GB to paint formulation, the coating may potentially improve building fire safety through passive fire protection.

Abstract The present project proposes to utilize rice husk and maize cob husk ash in the cement to mitigate the adverse impact of cement on environment and to enhance the disposal of waste in a sustainable manner. Ternary concrete / MR concrete was prepared by using rise husk and maize cob ash with cement. For the present project, five concrete mixes MR-0 (Control mix), MR-1 (Rice husk ash 10% and MR-2.5%), MR-2 (Rice husk ash 10% and MR-5%), MR-3 (Rice husk ash 10% and MR-2.5%), MR-4 (Rice husk ash 10% and MR-2.5%) were prepared. M35 concrete mix was designed as per IS 10262:2009 for low slump values 0-25mm. The purpose is to find the optimum replacement level of cement in M35 grade ternary concrete for I – Shaped paver blocks.In order to study the effects of these additions, micro-structural and structural properties test of concretes have been conducted. The crystalline properties of control mix and modified concrete are analyzed by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscope (FTIR), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). The results indicated that 10% Rice husk ash and 5% maize cob ash replaced with cement produce a desirable quality of ternary concrete mix having good compressive strength. The results of SEM analysis indicated that the morphology of both concrete were different, showing porous structure at 7 days age and become unsymmetrical with the addition of ashes. After 28 day age, the control mix contained more quantity of ettringite and became denser than ternary concrete. XRD analysis revealed the presence of portlandite in large quantity in controlled mix concrete while MR concrete had the partially hydrated particle of alite.

<p>Agricultural waste such as rice straw, rice husk and rice husk ash have not been utilized properly. This waste of agricultural produce can actually be used as an alternative to bionanofiller because it contains an excellent source of silica. The silica content contained in the rice waste when combined with the polymer matrix can produce composites having high thermal and mechanical properties. Characterization of bionanofiller from this rice waste is done by SEM, XRF, FTIR, XRD and particle density. The result of SEM analysis from this rice waste is feasible to be used as filler because it has size 1 μm. Likewise with the results of XRF analysis that rice waste contains a high enough silica component that is 80.6255% - 89.83%. FTIR test results also show that bionanoparticles from rice waste have the same content of silica. In the XRD analysis the best selective gain of rice waste is found in rice husk ash which is characteristic of amorp silica at a range of 2ϴ = 22<br />. The largest density analysis of paddy waste was found in rice husk 0.0419 gr / cm , followed by rice straw by of 0.0417 gr / cm 3 and rice hulk ash 0.0407 g / cm 3</p>
