Abstract
Cement is considered an irreplaceable and unique concrete building material that is in high demand worldwide. Burning fossil fuels and using electricity to make cement produce carbon dioxide, which contributes to greenhouse gas emissions. To reduce CO2 emissions, we need to use less cement in concrete. Agricultural wastes such as sugar cane bagasse, rice husks, and palm oil play an important role in reducing the CO2 emissions of concrete by substituting some of the cement. Treatment of sugarcane bagasse ash collected from scrap mills by washing and incineration changes the morphological properties of bagasse ash, making it suitable as a pozzolanic admixture. It is clear that sugarcane bagasse ash replacement cements exhibit favorable processability, improved concrete mechanical properties (compressive strength, flexural strength, splitting strength), reduced permeability, resistance to thermal activation, and electrical conductivity.
