Statistical Analysis of the Chemical Composition of Concrete Slurry Waste: A Case Study of Sedimentation Tanks from Concrete Batching Plants in Manaus-Brazil
Abstract:Concrete slurry waste is a material removed from sedimentation tanks that receive water used to wash concrete mixer trucks and patios of concrete batching plants (CBP). The objectives of this study were to determine the chemical composition of this residue from three different producers, in three consecutive months and at different collection points using wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence, investigate the inconstancy of content through analysis of variance, compare the qualitative and quantitative resul… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
