Recycling waste from natural stone processing plants to stabilise clayey soil

For the countries with a developed stone industry the waste generated in the natural stone processing plants pose environmental and economic problems. The utilisation of stone waste in various areas is still under research. In addition, there are only a limited number of studies concerning the use of stone waste obtained from processing plants in the stabilisation of clayey soil. Furthermore, none of the studies in the literature investigated the effect of the characteristics of the stone on the stabilisation of the soil. This is the first study that compares the efficiency of the waste calcitic marble, dolomitic marble and granite powder as additives for the stabilisation of clayey soil. Artificial soil samples were prepared in the laboratory using bentonite and kaolinite. Natural stone waste powder was added to the soil samples at different percentages, and the index and compaction parameters of the stabilised soil were analysed. The results showed that the types of waste powder used in this study, like lime, could be used as stabilisers. As the percentage of additives increased, the plasticity index of the clayey soil decreased and the physical properties of the soil changed from clay to silt. In terms of compaction parameters, the use of all types of natural waste powder in the study resulted in a decrease in the optimum water content and an increase in the maximum dry unit weight. The lowest optimum water content and the highest maximum dry unit weight were obtained from the dolomitic marble powder.

“…Many researchers have focused on bricks production using marble waste and studied mechanical performance with varying percentage of marble waste content. The performance of marble waste bricks with varying marble waste content reported by various researchers have been analyzed and summarized below (Table 2, Figure 5, 6, 7).Utilization of granite and marble sawing waste in formation of industrial bricks was studied by [23]. Bricks sample were prepared with 0, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 wt.…”

India is one of the biggest marble producing country in the world (~10%). State of Rajasthan has nearly 85% of marble production capacity. Recently, the massive quantity of marble waste fine particulates generated in marble industry has become a major environmental hazard issue. Major minerals present in marble waste are calcite (CaCO 3) and dolomite (CaMg (CO 3) 2). The particle sizes of marble waste particulates has been found to be 200 µm (D 90). The chemical composition of marble wastes reveals oxides of calcium (CaO), silica (SiO 2), alumina (Al 2 O 3) and alkaline oxides (Na 2 O, K 2 O). Apart from that, iron oxide, mica, fluorine, chlorite and organic matter have also been noticed. Marble waste has been explored for possible utilization in industries, thereby it helps in preventing the environmental problems such as dumping and pollution. This article addresses the efficiency of marble wastes for materials development, leading to create some sustainable green composite materials for construction applications.

“…Granite is one of the natural resources that can be used to support various human needs and widely used as a base material in the industrial sector [4]. The granite mining industry in the last 10 years is the most promising business, with production growth in the world at an average of 6% per year, and sales reaching 6 billion dollars per year [5].…”

South Aceh has abundant natural resources, one of which is granite rock, at Kutablang Village and Lubuk Layu Village, Samadua District. This research discusses about minerals phases using the X-Ray Diffraction method. The results obtained in the phase of the granite constituent minerals from Kutablang Village were C16AlClN16S4, O2Si, and F15Mo5O15Rb15, and the phases of the constituent minerals from Lubuk Layu Village were O2Si, F15Mo5O15Rb15 and La2Mo2O9.
