Experimental Assessment of the Effect of Paper Waste on Improvement of Concrete Behavior

Abstract

India is facing a significant challenge in disposing the waste in landfills throughout the country. The landfill disposal is leading to high disposal costs and potential environmental problems. If the current trend continues, waste production will grow by 5 each year, which will ultimately result in a saturated capacity of landfills by 2020. The use of paper industry waste in concrete formulations was investigated as an alternate to landfill disposal. The cement has been replaced by paper sludge accordingly within the range of fifty to fifteen by weight for the M 20 mix. By using an adequate amount of paper and water, concrete mixtures were produced and compared in terms of slump and strength with the traditional concrete. The concrete specimens were tested for compressive strength. These tests were administered to judge the mechanical properties for up to twenty eight days. As a result, the compressive increased up to 5 addition of paper waste and further increased in waste paper reduces the strengths gradually. The research on the use of paper waste can be further carried out in concrete manufacturing as a new recycled material. V. S. Sherekar | S. K. Patil | G. S.
