Use Of Ceramic Waste In Concrete

The evaluation of ceramic waste for use as a replacement of cement material begins with the concrete testing.

Use of ceramic waste in concrete.

Abstract this paper presents the results of an experimental studyto investigate the potential of using recycled ceramic as aggregate in concrete. Ceramic tiles were sieved into fine and coarse aggregates in line with standards. Cwp is characterized by its chemical composition that is mainly composed of silica sio2 and alumina al2o3. The ceramic aggregate used in this study wasrecycled from industrial ceramic tile waste in egypt.

To understand the workability of ceramic waste coarse aggregate concrete and conventional concrete slump test was conducted as per is 7320 1974. For each mix six cubes of size 100 mm six. Concrete contains cement water fineaggregate coarse aggregate and grit. Thus the current study focuses on the mechanical characterization of waste ceramic wall and floor tiles aggregate concrete.

Among the cdws the use of roof tile waste rt for the production of concrete or for the manufacture of other types of building materials such as bricks and ceramic blocks is widespread e g. The disposal of cwp in landfills will cause significant environmental problems i e soil air and groundwater pollution. The global production of ceramic waste powder cwp which is produced during the final polishing process of ceramic tiles exceeds 22 billion tons. The results indicate effectiveness of crushed glass waste and ceramic waste as partial replacement of conventional aggregate up to 40 percent without affecting the design strength.

0 15 20 25 30 and 35 using grade m 20 weight of concrete. Ceramic wastes sourced from construction and demolition wastes were separated from other debris and crushed using a quarry metal hammer. On the one side an economic advantage derived by cutting down on the use of high grade quarry aggregates and reducing distances travelled by the material. The use of aggregates from construction and demolition pursues a twofold objective.

So what is done that the opc cement is replaced with the waste of ceramic powder consequently in various stages. The use of ceramic tile waste as aggregate. Ceramic wall tiles are used as building material in the field of construction. Manufacturing of ceramic tiles require different raw material like clay potash dolomite feldspar talc and different chemicals like sodium silicate sodium tripoly.

With the control concrete i e.
