Industry Success

The Portland cement industry is one of the strategic industries in any country. The basis of an industry success is the availability of raw materials and, the low extraction in addition to transportation costs. The Bahr Al-Najaf region is abundant with limestone rocks but lacks primary gypsum. An investigation had been carried out to identify the source of secondary gypsum as an alternative to primary gypsum. Twelve boreholes were drilled for a depth of 2 m, as the thickness of suitable secondary gypsum layer ranges from 1 to 1.5 m. The mineralogical study revealed the predominance of gypsum followed by quartz and calcite, with an average of 62.9%, 19.6% and 14.35%, respectively. The geochemical analysis revealed that the content of SO3 is appropriate and ranging from 41.92% to 32.89% with an average of 37.73%. The SO3 content is within an acceptable range. The mean abundance of the major oxides of the study area may be arranged as SO3 > CaO> SiO2> MgO> Al2O> Fe2O3. The insoluble residue was at an acceptable rate. The laboratory experiments for milling secondary gypsum with clinker has successfully proven the production of Portland cement that matches the limits of the Iraqi Quality Standard (IQS) No. 5 of 1984. Great care must be taken when using secondary gypsum; secondary gypsum must be mixed well to maintain the chemical properties before blending with clinker and utilizing in the cement mill in the cement plant.

Alkali Activated

Fly ash is a well utilizable secondary raw material for the production of alkali activated construction materials. It is a significant alumina-silicates source suitable for the chemical reaction resulting in hardened composites. Physical and chemical properties of fly ashes as a co-product of coal burning mainly depend on characteristics of coal, burning temperature and combustion conditions. High variability of the properties of fly ash causes an uncertainty in the properties of alkali activated mortars. Time behaviour of the composition of the fly ash produced in a heating plant located in Košice, Slovakia as well as leaching behaviour of both alumina and silica from particular batches during one-year period was documented. Leaching tests were carried out using the distilled water and alkali solutions with three different concentrations. Both compressive and tensile strengths of alkali activated mortars were measured, and the correlation between the mechanical properties of hardened mortars and the chemical composition of fly ashes as well as their leaching characteristics was investigated.
