Strength of Concrete by Partially Replacement of Cement with Marble Powder in Concrete

Leaving the waste material to the environment directly can cause environmental problems; hence the reuse of waste material has been emphasized. Waste can be used to produce new products or can be used as admixture so that natural resources are used more efficiently and the environment is protected from waste deposits, Marble stone industry generates both solid waste and stone slurry. Whereas solid waste results from the rejects at the mine sites or at processing units, stone industry is a semi liquid substances consisting of particles originating from the saving and the polishing processes and water used top cool and lubricate the saving and polishing machines. Stone slurry generated during processing corresponds to around 40 % of the final product from the stone industry. This is relevant because the stone industry presents an amiual output of 68 million tones of processed products. Therefore the scientific and industrial community must commit towards more sustainable practices. There are several reuse and recycling solutions for this by-product, both at an experimental phase in practical applications. These industrial wastes are dumped in the nearby land and the natural fertility of the soil is spoiled. The physical, chemical and mechanical properties of the waste are.
