Engineering And Sustainability Performance Of Self-Compacting Palm Oil Mill Incinerated Waste Concrete Feb 2015

Engineering And Sustainability Performance Of Self-Compacting Palm Oil Mill Incinerated Waste Concrete

Faculty of Engineering University of Malaya

The different stages in the processing of palm oil generate various types of waste by-products, which have to be disposed of appropriately for a cleaner environment and to reduce pollution. In this study, palm oil clinker (POC), one of the by-products of the palm oil mill, was utilized in the production of self-compacting concrete (SCC). SCC has diverse types of structural application due to its own enhanced self-consolidating behaviour. The proportioning of the mixes was based on particle packing, which integrates both aggregate packing and void volume for a mix of aggregates. Combinations of POC and natural aggregate were studied …
