Abstract

Nowadays, the construction cost is very high with the use of crucial material such as cement, fine aggregate and coarse aggregate. This study includes the use of Pulverized fuel ash waste materials as partial replacement of cement and fine aggregate. Industries in India produce a large amount of waste such as fly ash, Bottom ash, Pond ash, etc., that can be useful in the partial replacement of all raw materials due to their different properties. Therefore, we study the number of useful research documents in this field and try to improve with locally available waste material can be proven economical as well. The objective of this study was to determine the environmental impacts of open dumping of pond ash around a thermal power plant.

Highlights

Cement and Concrete: The name Portland cement was given by Joseph Aspidin 1824 due to its similarity in color and its quality when hardens like Portland stone
Pond ash as a by-product of waste material, if the shortage of fine aggregate supplements in mortar and concrete, reduces the demand for elimination of waste from thermal power plants, reduces its environmental impact with due use of large amounts of waste in the construction industry which can be used for alternative material in concrete, as an industrial by-product
LITERATURE REVIEW: Agawam et al presented the properties of the bottom ash as substitution of fine aggregate in concrete

Summary

INTRODUCTION

Cement and Concrete: The name Portland cement was given by Joseph Aspidin 1824 due to its similarity in color and its quality when hardens like Portland stone. It can be defined as the bonding material having cohesive and adhesive properties which makes it capable to unite the different construction materials and form the compacted assembly. At the same time, a number of industrial and agro wastes with inherent cementations properties are produced abundantly.
