Opis

In the present study, the agro-industrial waste sugarcane bagasse ash (SCBA) was identified as a principal raw material and utilized to develop the sustainable and energy efficient construction products. Many of the previous research studies have been optimized the SCBA content (i.e. partial cement replacement) in concrete production. The reviewed optimum replacement range of SCBA showed a large variation. Such a wide range of optimization is due to the variation in physico-chemical attributes of SCBA collected from different industry sources such as its source (origin), silica content, loss on ignition value, its combustion temperature & duration, and cooling temperature & duration. It reflects the need to investigate the true optimum content of SCBA in concrete production. The study shows significant potential and scope for utilizing the agro-industrial solid waste i.e. SCBA for the development of building construction material that is lighter in weight, durable, thermally insulated, non hazardous, energy efficient and sustainable.
