This paper shows the possibility of reutilize paper sludge waste as supplementary cementing material for the cement manufacture. This industrial waste consists essentially of a mixture of organic matter (30%) and inorganic compound, such as calcite and clay minerals. The raw paper sludge does not present pozolanic properties, but once calcined at 650°C during 2 hours, exhibits a good pozolanic activity. Calcined paper sludge was used as partial Portland cement replacements of 0 and 10%. It was a sligth increment in compressive strength for 10 % of substitution from 7 days on. Furthermore, calcined paper sludge reduces the initial and final setting times of cement paste.

Civil construction materials such as brick, concrete and mortar have been incorporated with compatible wastes aiming at both reducing costs and providing an environmentally correct destination for the waste. In the present work, a sludge waste from a paper industry was added in different amounts, up to 20 wt%, into the lime used to produce mortar in mixture with sand and cement. Standard consistency tests of the pasty, as-prepared, mortar as well as flexural and compressive tests of the solid, as-cured, mortar were performed. The results indicated that the addition of up to 10 wt% of paper sludge waste into the lime increased the mortar consistency and up to 20 wt% addition also improved the mechanical strength of the cured mortar.

This investigation is focused on the physical and mechanical properties of Alccofine (AF) incorporating silica fume (SF) on M20 grade concrete. Normally, these industrial wastes (SF) are disposed off in landfill. The use of these industrial waste in concrete could reduce waste in the environment as well helps the environment against pollution as it is known that one ton of cement manufacture released one ton of carbon dioxide to the environment .Alccofine is a new replacement material on which very limited research has been done, its effect with flyash has been studied. The current study is a new experimental research undertaken to study the effect of alccofine on SF based concrete. Alccofine was varied in percentages of 0, 5, 10 and 15%, Silica fume was varied in percentages of 0, 5, 10, 15 % The aim of the investigation was to see the effect of alccofine on compressive strength of concrete and do a comparison on 7, and 28 days strength.The results showed that the cement replacement by 10% of alccofine gives higher values when compared with all other mix. The cement replacement by 10% alccofine gave a good improvement in compressive strength. Alccofine has the better performance when compare to the other slag material. It is helpful to make concrete workable

The replacement of natural materials by industrial by-products has given a variety of new construction materials that are economically viable and ecologically beneficial. Blast furnace slag is one of these industrial by-products. Its beneficial proprieties and characteristics have led to rapid growth of production in Algeria and worldwide. This research deals with the effect of alkaline activation of slag cement with clinker. Various agents that activate the process were used for testing, and it showed that compressive strength at 28 d, which reached 150% with respect to compressive strength obtained from slag cement at different percentages of slag (50%–80%), increased considerably. Alkaline activators accelerate hydration and stimulate the hardening process. The results also show the efficacy of steam cured treatment on the compressive strength.Key words: slag cement, activation agent, hydration, hardening, steam curing.

Abstract In recent years, there has been a lot of attention paid to the use of textile sludge waste-based products in the building industry to develop ecologically friendly construction materials. An experimental examination of the characteristics of bricks incorporating textile sludge waste and fly ash is presented in this work. In fly ash bricks, fly ash is used to replace textile sludge waste in the following proportions: For the blend percentage of cement, fly ash, and quarry dust, a 230mm × 100mm × 75mm sample size was used. For varying amounts of the components indicated previously, the findings indicate how compressive strength and water absorption fluctuate with curing age. Then we can cast bricks with various mixed proportions of cement, sludge waste, fly ash, and quarry dust using the 230mm × 100mm × 75mm specimen size. After that, the weight, compressive strength, and water absorption of textile sludge with different concentrations of fly ash bricks were compared. This inquiry is primarily concentrated on maximizing the compressive strength of newly produced bricks while limiting weight density and water absorption through extensive laboratory work. The recognition of elements influencing the diverse qualities of bricks is a clear purpose of pursuing this issue as project work.

Material consumption of production of building materials is determined by the amount of raw materials used for their production, to the total output. One of the ways to reduce material consumption is the use of industrial waste as the main raw material for the production of new construction products. Most of the waste generated as a result of the activities of enterprises are man-made raw materials for the production of products such as brick, lime, cement, etc.Given that man-made raw materials are similar to the natural composition and physical properties and even has a number of advantages (heat treatment, increased dispersion, etc.), the manufacture of building materials from it is usually profitable and justified [4, 5].

Industrial wastes mostly dumped into the soil or water sources which will pollute the environment. As a mitigation measure now a days the industrial wastes are used as a construction materials. In this project, industrial waste material such as Glass bottle, Illuminate sludge were used in varying percentage as fine grained substitution and Metakaolin is used as a binding material substitution. M30 concrete mix is used to test the compressive and split tensile strength of the concrete specimens. Cement is replaced with metakaolin in 4, 8, 12, 16 and 20%. Fine aggregate is replaced by illuminate sludge in 25, 50, 75 and 100% and beer glass bottle waste in 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50%.The Glass material does not pollute the environment but storage of waste glass material results wastage of land. Thereby glass powder can be used as a substitution in construction. Then the Illuminate sludge and Metakaolin are the waste from the Titanium Product. The materials to be used for the experiment are collected and the physical properties tests were done as per codal specifications. The experiment is conducted to determine the strength of concrete specimen by adding different industrial waste in various proportions. For every industrial wastes each ratio, three specimens were prepared to find out the compressive and split tensile strength of concrete at 7, 14 and 28 days and finally it was allowed to curing for obtaining the optimum strength of concrete. The substitution of Glass bottle powder waste up to 30%, Illuminate sludge 20% and Metakaolin 8% will give the optimum compressive strength. bottle powder waste up to 30% Illuminate sludge 20% and Metakaolin 8% will give the optimum compressive strength.

This research work assesses the influence of a chromium-rich waste (from potassium dichromate manufacture) on the hydration and hardening processes of two types of Portland cements with limestone filler and slag additions. Therefore, mixtures of Portland cement and chromium-rich waste, corresponding to 0.5% wt. and 1% wt. Cr, were prepared and tested. The analyses performed on cement pastes with chromium waste content, showed that chromium immobilization is mainly due to the formation of Ca6Al2Cr3O18�32H2O (CrEt); this compound results by the substitution of [SO4]2- groups from ettringite lattice of with [CrO4]2-. CrEt crystals growth on the surface of clinker particles forms a diffusion barrier which explains longer setting times for cements with chromium content. The increase of chromium content in the studied systems decreases the compressive strength values but these remain above the lower limits imposed for this type of materials. The chromium content in leachates prepared according to the method described in SR EN 12457-2, was well below the legal limit of 70 mg/Kg established by Romanian legislation. A better chromium immobilisation was achieved in the cement with slag content, in good correlation with the nature and amount of formed hydrates.

In this study, early hardening and strength gain of mortar samples with prehydration have been studied and effects of prehydrated cement amount and duration on the compressive strength of the mortar have been examined. The compressive strengths and ultrasound pulse velocities, resonance frequencies, bending strengths, and setting times of prepared samples have been determined by conducting tests on 4 cm × 4 cm × 16 cm samples prepared for this purpose at 2, 7, and 28 d. When the setting times are evaluated, the heat released as a result of hydration declines, and the initial heat is reduced. A significant increase in the early compressive strength as an effect of prehydration method has been observed. It is evaluated that prehydration is an economical and practical method that can be enhanced and used in the production of the ready-mix concrete and prefabricated construction materials.
