Effect of Calcination Temperature on the Pozzolanic Activity of Brazilian Sugar Cane Bagasse Ash (SCBA)

Abstract: This study evaluated the feasibility of using sugar cane bagasse ash (SCBA), a by-product of the sugar cane ethanol industry, obtained under controlled calcination as a partial replacement for Portland cement in mortars. Materials with pozzolanic characteristics may be used to partially replace cement in mortars or concrete and are known to provide durability to the products. Initially, TG/DTA curves of the sugar cane bagasse were conducted to define suitable calcination temperatures (500°C, 600°C and 700°C), … Show more

“…At 800°C, some sharp and intense peaks started (quartz and sillimanite) to show up, which implies that the crystallanity increases as temperature rises. Ribeiro and Morell [12] also reported similar observation on SCBA.…”

“…The chemical composition of bagasse ashes and Portland Cement used is presented in Table 1 and their and the crystallography in the diffractogram are shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2. These characteristic values with peaks at angles of 26.5º degrees SiO2 were described by Ribeiro (2014) …”

“…These materials improve the mechanical performance and durability of Portland cement pastes through microstructure control due to pozzolanic reactions that reduces permeability and chloride ion diffusion [21][22][23]. It is known that SCBA contains quartz but there are reports in the literature that this material exhibits pozzolanic activity [23][24][25][26][27]. Some works have been conducted to study the properties of C-S-H, Portland cement phases and pastes prepared with materials pozzolanic materials [28][29][30].…”
