M55 Grade Concrete Using Industrial Waste To Minimize Cement Content Incorporating CO2 Emission Concept: An Experimental Investigation

From the present research data the worldwide total production of Portland cement is about 2.6 billion tones, mostly used in the production of concrete. This production may be responsible for 5% of all global man-made CO2 emission, thus its production is responsible factor for global warming and climate-change. As one of the good solution for that problem is to use different types of wastes in concrete as cement replacement to reduce CO2 emission which is very effective way to save natural resources and also helpful to prevent environment by using undesirable quantity in place of cement. Due to increasing steel manufacturing, huge quantity of industrial waste is generated, therefore waste disposal is very challenging task before the industrial world by taking care of preservation and safety of natural resources & environment as well as pollution prevention. Industries are always responsible for the global warming and indiscriminate carbon emission which is very important matter to work and think on by finding better sustainable solutions. To overcome such waste management problem by considering environment safety, the effective utilization of industrial waste in Concrete. Optimum use of waste generated from steel making industry is utilizing in concrete from 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, and 90% of cement replacement. For all dosage compressive strength and tensile strength were checked in mortar at first and then so many trials have done to achieve M55 grade concrete. From these trials optimum percentages of waste of steel making industry is fixed at 50% and for that optimum percentage of that waste product specimen were cast for compression, tension and flexural strength for 3days, 7days and 28 days. From this investigation improved test results were achieved. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
