Infrastructural developments are inevitable for the developing countries and hence the production of sustainable building materials is promoted worldwide. Sustainable development in the vicinity of tiles is bewildered for more than a decade. Production of conventional tiles such as cement concrete tiles, clay tiles and ceramic tiles is energy intensive approach and levies lot of strain over the adjunct ecosystem. On the other hand there are serious problems related to the disposal of flyash, Rice Husk Ash throughout the world. An approach has been taken to synthesis tiles based on these industrial byproducts as the base materials through Geopolymer technology. In this work, Geopolymer mortar after heat curing is applied as tiles. In this work, Flyash is replaced by Rice Husk Ash in various proportions such as 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100 percent. Tests such as workability, flatness, straightness, perpendicularity, water absorption, modulus of rupture and abrasion are conducted and fair results are obtained. This research also portrays the effect of Rise Husk Ash addition over the flyash based Geopolymer binder in the utility as tiles. The findings of this research work encourages the development of energy efficient tiles using industrial wastes. Keywords: Geopolymer, Rice Husk Ash, Tiles

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.

The paper presents an experimental study on the production of non-fired ceramic tiles from rice husk ash (RHA) and green glass cullet (GGC) composites as a novel eco-friendly material. Eighteen mixture formulations were constructed as compared to control formula, specimens were uniaxially pressed at 10 MPa and then cured at room temperature for 7 and 28 days. Non-fired tiles (formula A4, B11, and C17) containing 20% GGC were mixed with 0%, 5%, and 10% RHA. The modulus of rupture can be increased by 87.23%, 48.8%, and 19.4%, respectively, at 28 days of curing as compared to control formula. These results were also coherent with microstructure characterization by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Furthermore, formula A4 and C17 were selected to compare energy costs with wall tiles fired at 950°C. They were the same amount of energy-saving costs by 5.19 USD/m2. From these results, the new eco-friendly products can produce with a combination of RHA and GGC wastes which can enhance the physical properties due to the pozzolanic reaction. Moreover, the proposed non-fired ceramic tiles can conserve energy and reduce manufacturing costs.

Soil existing at a particular site may not be appropriate for construction of engineering structures. The present study made an attempt to enhance the geotechnical properties of a soil replaced with industrial wastes having pozzolanic value like rice husk ash (RHA) and fly ash (FA). Soil is replaced with RHA in 2%, 4%, and 6% to dry weight of soil. It is observed that soil replaced with 4% RHA is the optimum for the soil used in this study from geotechnical point of view. To know the influence of fly ash, soil is further replaced with 4% FA along with 4% RHA. It is found that results of soil replacement by both RHA and FA proved to be soil modification and not the improvement. Hence, a cost-effective accelerator like lime is used for further replacing the above soil-4%, RHA-4% FA mix. The optimum lime content is found to be 4%.

Geopolymer is a greener alternative cement produced from the reaction of pozzolans and strong alkali solutions. Generally, the cement industry is one of largest producers of CO2that caused global warming. For geopolymer mortar usage, Portland cement is not utilized at all. In this research, geopolymer mortars were prepared by mixing metakaolin, various wastes (fly ash, bagasse ash and rice husk ash) varied as 80:20, 50:50 and 20:80, 15M NaOH, Na2SiO3and sand. The influence of various parameters such as metakaolin to ashes ratios and pozzolans to alkali ratios on engineering properties of metakaolin blended wastes geopolymer mortar were studied. Compressive strength tests were carried out on 25 x 25 x 25 mm3cube geopolymer mortar specimens at 7, 14, 21, 28 and 91 air curing days. Physical and chemical properties were also investigated at the same times. The test results revealed that the highest compressive strength was 20% metakaolin - 80% fly ash geopolymer mortar. When the curing times increases, the compressive strength of geopolymer mortar also increases. The mixing of metakaolin and bagasse ash/rice husk ash presented lower compressive strength but higher water absorption and porosity. For FTIR results, Si-O, Al-O and Si-O-Na+were found. Moreover, the geopolymer mortar could easily plastered on the wall.

By Products

Production of Portland cement causes global warming due to the emission of greenhouse gases to the environment. The need for reducing the amount of cement is necessary from sustainability point of view. Alkali activated and geopolymeric binders are used as alternative to cement. Industrial by-products such as fly ash, ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS), silica fume, rice husk ash etc. are commonly used for the production of geopolymer concrete. This paper focuses on the development of geopolymer concrete from slag (100% GGBS). Effect of different cementitious materials such as lime, fly ash, metakaolin, rice husk ash, silica fume and dolomite on strength properties of slag (GGBS) based geopolymer concrete are also discussed. It is observed that the addition of dolomite (by-products from rock crushing plants) into slag based geopolymer concrete reduces the setting time, enhances durability and improves rapidly the early age strength of geopolymer concrete. Development of geopolymer concrete with industrial by-products is a solution to the disposal of the industrial wastes. The quick setting concrete thus produced can reduce the cost of construction making it sustainable also.

Abstract Thermal comfort of residential buildings has become an important factor for the performance and functional application of materials in constructive systems. In this scenario, it also takes some concepts related to sustainability, such as the recycling of industrial wastes. Many of these materials, such as rice husk ash (RHA), become interesting mineral alternatives for production of structural and/or sealing ceramics blocks with insulating properties. In this paper, ceramic samples of formulated compositions constituted of natural raw materials (clays) and rice husk ash (8 to 20 wt%) as an alternative mineral source, were appropriated prepared, extruded and then, after drying process at 110 °C, fired at 965 °C for 2 h. The results showed the feasibility of adding rice husk ash in the production of ceramic blocks with porosities in the 16 to 32% range, resulting in a considerable reduction of their thermal conductivities (up to 27%).

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.

Sidenreng Rappang districts is one of the rice producing centers in South Sulawesi. Along with the increasing amount of rice production, the waste produced by the production process also increases. Rice husk is a waste from the rice milling industry. Rice husk ash has very high pozzolanic activity so that it has the potential to be used as a substitute material or as a cement additive in a mixture of building materials such as paving blocks. Paving blocks are widely applied for road pavement, such as sidewalks, parking areas, residential streets, harbor areas, parks and others. Through the Community Partnership Program (PKM) efforts will be made to empower the community by involving farmer groups and youth youth groups in Kab. Sidrap in order to improve the economic life of the community. Communities are taught appropriate technology in making paving blocks through the use of press machines to produce paving made from raw rice husk ash which is expected to replace paving blocks from a mixture of cement and sand.
