  2. Main Characteristics of Industrial Wastes as to be Used in Sustainable Building Materials

  3. Industrial wastes - generalities • From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia • Industrial waste is the waste produced by industrial activity which includes any material that is rendered useless during a manufacturing process such as that of factories, mills and mines.

  4. It has existed since the outset of the industrial revolution.[1] Some examples of industrial waste are chemical solvents, paints, sand paper, paper products, industrial by-products, metals, and radioactive wastes.

  5. Toxic waste, chemical waste, industrial solid waste and municipal solid waste are designations of industrial waste. Sewage treatment plants can treat some industrial wastes, i.e. those consisting of conventional pollutants such as biochemical oxygen demand (BOD). Industrial wastes containing toxic pollutants require specialized treatment systems.

  8. The industrial wastes represent a huge problem in our days. This simple sentence represents the base problem that makes the starting point of the scientific researches all over the world in all the research fields. Researches in the building material follow this trend.

  9. New building materials having industrial waste into their composition were tested and designed all over the world. These materials can make a big difference into the industrial wastes management.

  10. Speaking about environmental and climate protection, building material industry occupies an important place because it generates about a quarter of the total amounts of wastes. If this industry is to further develop it should take into consideration of producing new sustainable materials.

  11. The fundamental characteristic of a friendly environmental building material is to reduce its negative impact and to enhance positive impact on the environment into its manufacturing procedure as well as into its composition.

  12. Taking into consideration all above mentioned facts, one can state that the future building materials must be made using the existing wastes from all industrial wastes.

  13. One power plant produces annually around 1,170,000 tons of fly ash wastes which are to be deposited on fields near populated areas, resulting in health problems for humans and animals in the same manner, affecting also the surrounding vegetation.

  14. Figure 1. Fly ash deposit

  15. The utilisation of fly ash by the construction industry is regulated by technical standards, such as the EN450 standards in Europe, the ASTM C-618 standards in the USA and their equivalents in Asia.

  16. Various methods have been attempted to improve the quality of fly ash in an effort to make it more suitable for industrial applications. The most simple and commonly applied process is to grade the fly ash by particle size, which categorises it for a range of cementitious applications. This is referred to as Classified Ash.

  17. Additional improvements are made by the removal of some carbon in an effort to bring the overall Loss on Ignition (LOI) content below the 7 per cent demanded by BSEN450 Category A & B for use as a CEM I replacement in ready-mixed concrete.

  18. The XXI st century has a big problem to solve: to reduce the environmental problems that appeared during the big industrial development in the past century. This leads to important problems regarding the design and preparation of the building products and materials, so that finally to obtain an economic cost of the product, on short and long time periods, also a “friendly with the environment” during its fabrication process.

  19. Romania it is one of the world’s biggest fly ash producers, this is because of burning a low quality of coals. In the 1980 year, 15 millions tones of fly ash were produced. • The fly ash it is an important industrial waste that resulted from the burning of powder coal at temperatures between 1.200 – 1.600 °C. From each tone of coal it results 0.15 – 0.6 tones of fly ash.

  20. In our days, in Romania there are recorded 951 industrial waste deposits that cover a surface over 11000 hectares. • Table 1 present the industrial waste deposits as they are presented by Government Department.

  21. The reuse of fly ash as an engineering material primarily stems from its pozzolanic nature, spherical shape and relative uniformity. Nearby Timisoara City at Utvin, there it is one of the biggest air pollution sources from west Romania: the fly ash deposit of Power Plant South Timisoara. This deposit covers 50 hectares and it was started since 1987. In this moment, special equipment is in function which produces dense slurry. This dense slurry is and admixture of fly ash and water in 1:1 proportion.

  22. Fly ash utilization, especially in concrete, has significant environmental benefits including: • - increasing the life of concrete roads and structures by improving concrete durability; • - net reduction in energy use and greenhouse gas and other adverse air emissions when fly ash is used to replace or displace manufactured cement; • - reduction in amount of coal combustion products that must be disposed in landfills; • - conservation of other natural resources and materials.

  23. Experimental programme • Experimental determinations were made on new building materials realized with ultra fine fly ash (from Timisoara Power Plant) classical binders and sand. • There were realized mixtures with the following compositions:

  24. UNIVERSITY POLITEHNICA OF TIMISOARA BUILDING MATERIALS WITH INDUSTRIAL WASTE COMPOSITIONS: For series 1, 3 and 5, the materials structures are: - Water = 20%; For series 2 and 4, the materials structures are: - Water = 15%;

  25. UNIVERSITY POLITEHNICA OF TIMISOARA BUILDING MATERIALS WITH INDUSTRIAL WASTE COMPOSITIONS:

  26. UNIVERSITY POLITEHNICA OF TIMISOARA BUILDING MATERIALS WITH INDUSTRIAL WASTE Physical and mechanical characteristics of building materials with fly ash:

  27. To establishing the blended binders compositions was used the next model: %Blended binders=%(classic binders + UFA) = 100% (1) where: - classic mineral binders=cement (C)+lime (L); - UFA=ultra fine fly ash from Power Plant.

  28. The blended binder compositions were fixed by using 10%, 20% and 25% of lime (L), 5%, 10% and 20% of cement and ultra fine fly ash (UFA) was obtaining from relation: %UFA=100%-%Blended binders (2)

  29. During the compound mixing the superplasticizer (polycarboxylatether) was added in 0.5% from blended binder’s mass proportion. • The prismatic samples have been made with 40x40x160 mm dimensions.

  30. The samples were realized in two steps: ▪first was prepared a manual dry mixture from sand, ultra fine fly ash, lime/cement; ▪second, water was added, the mixture was 2 minutes mechanical mixed, superplasicizer was added and 2 minutes mechanical mixed again.

  31. The compactness was performed on jolting table in two sequences: 30 jolts in 30 seconds for the first half fresh material and 30 jolts in 30 seconds for the steel mould filled with all fresh material quantity. The samples were kept into wet air box until 28 days age.

  32. Experimental results Apparent density, bending tensile strength and compression strength are present into Table 3.

  33. The apparent density at 28 days age for different batches, presented in Table 3, have a value between 1762 kg/m3 and 1987 kg/m3 which framed the materials in medium heavy mortars category or cell concretes.

  34. UNIVERSITY POLITEHNICA OF TIMISOARA BUILDING MATERIALS WITH INDUSTRIAL WASTE

  35. For materials of G1 group • Mechanical strength obtained at 7 and 28 days age, have the optimal behaviour for series 1 L10 C10 and series 3 L20 C10. • Although have obtained high levels of fc to 28 days (> 30 N / mm2), fct presents a decrease for the age of 7 days to 28 days. These characteristics are proper for small items such as paving plates.

  36. For a constant percentage of 10% cement, the increase of the percentage of lime of 10% (series 6 L10 C10) to 20% (series 8 L20 C10) led to lower fct with 0.35 N/mm2, representing 12.0% and to increase fc with 3.74 N/mm2. • For the case of constant quantity of lime (10%) and increasing the proportion of cement to 10% (Series 6 L10 C10) at 20% (series 9 L10 C20) an increase of fct with 0.12 N/mm2 (4.1%) and of fc with 8.82 N/mm2 (46.4%).

  37. The thermal conductivity coefficient was determinate with Almemo 2290-8 device for series 1 L10 C10 and the values obtained was l = 0.70 W/(m●K). This coefficient is the same like brick and less than concrete thermal conductivity.

  38. The technical efficiency, thermal efficiency, economic efficiency and sustainability index are presented into Table 4. • A reference Materials was chosen as an ideal material for comparison with classical as well as with new materials.

  39. The technical, thermal and economic efficiency was express taking into account three coefficients as follow:

  40. From Table 4 and Fig. 1 it can be concluded: • The thermal efficiency b1 as the ratio between the thermal resistance R and the cost C, has the maximum value for Reference Material (25) and for cell concrete (10.8). The new materials are characterized by thermal efficiency between 2.2 to 3.4. The small value were obtained for ordinary concrete b1=1.0 and solid brick b1=1.2.

  41. The economical efficiency b2 expressed by the ratio between the compressed strength and cost has the minimum values are for cell concrete (8) and solid brick (9) due to smaller value of the compressive strength. Economical efficiency for new material with the values between 45 and 62 is very similar with the Reference Material (50).

  42. Technical efficiency, as ratio between the compressive strength and the apparent density is with the maximum value for the Reference Material (33). From the new materials the Series 3 (18.4) and Series 4 (18.2) are characterized with the higher value. The ordinary concrete as well as the cell concrete has obtained the smaller values (11 and 8.9); the minimum value is for solid brick b3=5.9.

  43. Sustainability of new materials The sustainability index was calculated by formula: • This index refers to four components of the sustainability dimensions: ecological (by E=energy), economic (by C=cost) and social (by R=thermal transfer resistance and fc=compressive strengths).
