The growing demand for cement has created a significant impact on the environment. Cement production requires huge energy consumptions; however, Pakistan is currently facing a severe energy crisis. Researchers are therefore engaged with the introduction of agricultural/industrial waste materials with cementitious properties to reduce not only cement production but also energy consumption, as well as helping protect the environment. This research aims to investigate the influence of binary cementitious material (BCM) on fresh and hardened concrete mixes prepared with metakaolin (MK) and ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS) as a partial replacement of cement. The replacement proportions of BCM used were 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20% by weight of cement. A total of five mixes were prepared with 1 : 1.5 : 3 mix proportion at 0.54 water-cement ratios. A total of 255 concrete specimens were prepared to investigate the compressive, tensile, and flexural strength of concrete after 7, 28, and 56 days, respectively. It was perceived that the workability of concrete mixes decreased with an increasing percentage of MK and GGBFS. Also, the density and permeability of concrete decreased with an increasing quantity of BCM after 28 days. Conversely, the compressive, tensile, and flexural strength of concrete were enhanced by 12.28%, 9.33%, and 9.93%, respectively, at 10% of BCM after 28 days. The carbonation depth reduced with a rise in content of BCM (up to 10%) and then later improved after 28, 90, and 180 days. Moreover, the effect of chloride attack in concrete is reduced with the inclusion of BCM after 28 and 90 days. Similarly, the drying shrinkage of concrete decreased with an increase in the content of BCM after 40 days.

“…Rice husk is one of the most widely available agricultural wastes in many rice producing countries of the world (Hossain et al 2018). In every 100 kg of rice processed, ≈ 20 kg of rice husk waste is generated (Ghosal and Moulik 2015). Lack of awareness and capacity to convert rice husk into resource material had diminished its usefulness.…”

Purpose Rice husk is one of the most widely available agricultural wastes in many rice producing countries of the world. Here, we evaluated carrot production under different rice husk-amended media aimed at providing alternative use for rice husk. Methods The experimental design was 2 × 5 × 4 factorial in completely randomized design with six replications. Factor A consist of two production environments—high tunnel and open field while factor B was five growth media—5:0:0, 4:0:1, 3:1:1, 2:2:1 and 1:3:1 (topsoil:rice husk:poultry manure). Factor C was four carrot varieties; ‘Touchon’, ‘Amazonia’, ‘Carrot New Kuroda’ and ‘Touchon Mega’. Data were collected on seedling emergence and yield parameters. The analysed means were separated using FLSD(0.05). Results The biomass yield from plants grown in high tunnel was significantly higher than plants in the open field. Highest root weight, wet and dry biomass yield were obtained from medium 4:0:1 followed by 3:1:1. Harvest index ranged from 32.3% in medium 1:3:1 to 62% in 3:1:1. Days to seedling emergence among varieties ranged from 8.5 to 11.3. ‘Amazonia’ variety produced the highest root weight, wet and dry biomass yield and was followed by ‘Touchon Mega’. Conclusion Carrot seedling emergence and yield differed in rice husk-amended media under high tunnel and open field environments. ‘Amazonia’ variety grown in media 4:0:1 or 3:1:1 gave the best yield. Inclusion of rice husk in media formulation beyond an optimum rate resulted in yield reduction in carrot. Carrot is sensitive to the physio-chemical properties of its growth medium.

“…Conventional materials of construction like cement, sand and granite are highly pre-requisites in construction industry, of which concrete is the basic and widely used cementitious material in civil engineered structures. Since concrete is far more in need and is amply consumed industrially material world-wide, its versatile nature, inevitable dependence and economic feasibility to quench the requirements has placed it as the top most building material [1][2][3]. With the development around the globe, the use, production and the environmental hazardous in making of cement industrially has surpassed an alarming limits which, if other alternative and environmental friendly materials are not made in practice, would be greatly detrimental to the environment, and the living beings as a result; because cement manufacturing contributes over 5% of global CO2 emissions which with more dependence would augment [4].…”

“…Their use can enhances practical and economic benefits in construction industry and can be an easy way forward to waste management. Apart from other alternatives which utilize waste, thus conserving natural resources and safeguarding the essence of life-environment, the rice husk ash is widely used as cement replacement in concrete because it has pozzolanic properties which enhance the strength of concrete [1]. This research focuses on the use of rice husk ash (waste stuff) in concrete to replace cement partially.…”

In present status quo, number of researcher are working on waste materials as potential supplement for any of the constituent of concrete to cope with sustainable development. As, the ingredients which constitute the body and give strength to concrete are natural available limited material and has to deplete one day. Thus, there is desperately need of alternate that may replace the limited natural resources. In this regard, this study focuses the rice husk ash (waste stuff) as partial replacement of cement and its possible impact on strength of concrete. In addition, this research work also this research work is conducted to investigate the effect of water-cement ratio on the strength of concrete at 10% partially replacement of Rice husk ash (RHA) by the weight of cement. RHA is a mineral admixture obtained by burning husk at certain temperature. Since as per pervious researches, the physical and chemical properties of RHA are very reactive Pozzolans and possess binding properties so can be used as cement supplement. Therefore, for laboratory experimental work, total 144 cubical and 72 cylindrical. In this research, number of concrete specimens were cast and tested at 1:2:4 mix ratio with various w/c ratios i.e. 0.45, 0.50 and 0.60. Further, at each specified water-cement ratio, two mechanical properties (compressive and splitting tensile strength) were determined in Universal Testing Machine (UTM). These physical properties of concrete were investigated at 7, 14, 28 and 56 days curing period. The experimental results show that the compressive strength gets increased up to 14.51% and tensile splitting test strength increased up to 10.71% at the w/c ratio of 0.45. The workability of plain fresh concrete at all w/c ratios is slightly greater than the workability of concrete blended with 10% RHA. Thus, RHA improves the properties of concrete when used in specific amount. As a result, it can reduce the overall cost of construction and it will reduce the adverse environmental effect.
