The fly-ash produced in thermal power plants is a major pollutant to the air and soil. This paper designs a new composite material with the fly-ash as the reinforcement. For the composite, the AA 6061 aluminum alloy was taken as the matrix, Al2O3 as the primary reinforcement, and fly-ash as the secondary reinforcement. The microstructure and mechanical properties of the proposed composite were measured, and compared with those of previous experiments on AA 6061 alloy. The results show that the proposed composite achieves uniform distribution of Al2O3 and fly-ash in AA 6061 alloy; the mechanical characteristics like tensile strength and hardness were improved after adding Al2O3 and flyash; however, ductility and facture toughness were minimized after the addition. The research findings offer a new way to recycle the fly-ash generated in the thermal power industry.

There are various types of reinforcements used in the development of aluminium based metal matrix composites. It was observed that by the use of ceramic particles, mechanical characteristics such as hardness and tensile strength were enhanced. However, density and cost was also increased. Groundnut shell is waste product that produces lots of soil pollution. By utilizing ground nut shell ash as reinforcement material with aluminium, mechanical properties can be improved. Further, density and cost of composite can be reduced. The aim of this review article is to study the influence of various types of reinforcements in the fabrication of composites with enhanced mechanical properties.

Present investigation agreements with the influence of reinforcement on hardness properties of eggshell reinforced AA2014 composite material. Aluminium based composite materials reinforced with eggshell were prepared by electromagnetic stir casting technique (EMS). Experiments were conducted by using Response Surface Methodology (RSM). Uncarbonized eggshell weight percentage, stirring time, matrix pouring temperature, preheat temperature, and stirring current were the selected process parameters. The maximum hardness of AA 2014/eggshell composite are achieved 86.4865 BHN at optimum levels of process parameters i.e. reinforcement weight percentage of 12.5 %, preheat temperature of 600°C, stir time of 3 minutes, matrix pouring temperature at 700 °C, and stirring current of 12 A. Results depicted that uncarbonized eggshell content in AA 2014 alloy had improved the hardness. Confirmation experiment was conducted to verify the result of hardness. It was observed that at optimum level of stir casting method parameter, tensile Strength was also improved. Owing to strengthening of uncarbonized eggshell in AA 2014 alloy, hardness and tensile strength properties was improved by 33.33% and 37.83% respectively.
