“…The compressive strength loss in HCl solution was 19.44% and 13.14% for the control and 20% for the replacement samples. The compressive strength losses in H 2 SO 4 solution were 27.88% and 12.82%, respectively, indicating that granite waste aggregate effectively improves the acid resistance of concretes [36,37]. The water absorption of concretes was tested using magnetized water with higher water molecular activity, and it was found that concrete with granite waste had a reduced water absorption and significantly improved compressive strength and acid erosion resistance [38].…”

Quarrying and processing of granite produce large amounts of waste residues. Besides being a loss of resources, improper disposal of these wastes results in pollution of the soil, water and air around the dumpsites. The main components of granite waste are quartz, feldspars and a small amount of biotite. Due to its hard and dense texture, high strength, corrosion resistance and wear resistance, granite waste may be recycled into building materials, composite materials and fine ceramics, effectively improving their mechanical properties and durability. By using the flotation process, high value-added products such as potash feldspar and albite may be retrieved from granite waste. Also, granite waste has the potential for application in soil remediation and sewage treatment. This review presents recent advances in granite waste reutilization, and points out the problems associated with its use, and the related countermeasures, indicating the scale of high value-added reutilization of granite waste.

“…The influence of sand quality on the tensile strength and thermal distortion of chemically bonded sand cores is investigated (Gyarmati et al, 2021). Material testing and XRD analysis to examine the sulfate resistance behavior of granite sand as fine aggregate in concrete (Arivumangai et al, 2020). This research concentrates on testing concrete using XRD analysis, but the natural materials in sand have not yet been analyzed.…”

In the Talang siring tour of the Pamekasan district, numerous illegal mining operations along the coast for sale and personal use produce building materials with low economic value. However, if the sand is processed further, it will produce materials with high technology utilization and economic value. This research is a preliminary investigation into converting sand into high-value minerals to be utilized economically. Using X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) experiments, this study aims to determine the sand's mineral content in the Talang Siring tourist area in Pamekasan Regency. Initial identification is the XRF test function for analyzing sand's chemical elements and composition. The purpose of XRD is to analyze the crystal structure and correlate the results with Macth and origin software based on the XRF results. The results of the XRF test indicated that Silicone had the highest concentration of minerals at 63.8%, followed by Calcium at 29.4% and Iron at 2.45%. The XRD test results indicated that the sand's mineral composition was qualitatively SiO2 90%, CaCO3 8%, Iron 1%, and the remainder 1%.

“…As a glimpse from the literature review, we have observed that the use of recyclable materials can be effective in achieving both the goals: strength requirements and thermal conditioning. It is reported that the concrete experiences higher compressive and flexural strengths by replacing 10% of sand with granite fine powder (GFP) [5]. In another study using three different foam-binder ratios (0.025, 0.05, and 0.1) by Ravalet al [6], the results of the experiments revealed that the foam-binder ratio has a greater impact on bleeding capacity, flow ability, strength, absorption, and permeable voids when compared to the GFP-binder ratio.…”

The demand for sustainable building materials is increasing day-by-day pertaining to the challenges in meeting the cost, reliability and climate adaptability. In addition to the structural requirements, improvements in the building technology are also trending towards eco-friendly, comfortable and economic housing solutions. The present study deals with the usage of two industrial waste materials (bagasse ash and granite powder) to prepare lightweight and heat resistant concrete panels (M25 grade). The replacement of aggregates was accomplished sequentially by varying the mix proportioning (10%, 15%, 20% and 25%) using granite powder and bagasse ash balls (~10mm dia.). In addition to the weight reduction, coconut fibres and paraffin were also applied in intermittent layers to enhance thermal insulation properties. The temperature profiles were monitored using thermocouple sensors fitted onto the panel surfaces. The physical, mechanical and thermal properties of the casted panels were studied after 28 days of curing. A comparative study was made for solid and hollow light panels in terms of strength and weight. The results indicated that significant temperature reduction is achieved between the surfaces by using the phase changing materials (3%) while the compressive strength of the hollow lightweight panel is satisfactory (23.48 N/mm2). Hence, the prepared concrete panels can be suitably employed in building construction where thermal comfort and reduced weight are in demand.
