“…The pore size, pore distribution and their interconnectivity are considered as factors affecting the permeability of concrete (Rana et al, 2015). The previous authors concluded that the addition of marble sludge of fine size than cement to concrete fills the voids present between the cement particles and also between the cement particles and the aggregates and fill the capillary pores of concrete matrix and reduce their connectivity which in turn reduces the permeability of the concrete.…”

“…Rana et al (2015) concluded that more replacement by marble sludge leads to smaller amount of cement available to bind the concrete constituents and negatively affects the concrete microstructure and durability parameters.…”

“…They reported that mechanical strength decreases with an increase in marble content while freeze-thaw durability and abrasive wear resistance increase. Rana et al (2015) have shown that replacing up to 10% of cement with marble slurry achieved the best performance of concrete properties. Rodrigues et al (2015) found that replacing of cement up to 10% with marble sludge in presence of superplastsizers improved the mechanical performance of concrete relative to conventional concrete.…”

“…The apparent density and compressive strength decrease while the porosity increases.These by-products are present in the environment and contribute to pollution [14,15]. The utilization of marble dust reduces the cost of cement-based material production and also decreases the costs of removing it from the environment [16].The possibility of using waste materials such as marble dust as a partial substitution in the production of mortar and concrete has often been investigated by researchers [5,[17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29]. Its mechanical properties are the main aspect of the analysis.…”

The aim of this study is to assess the possibility of utilizing waste marble dust (WMD) as a partial cement substitution in air-cured mortar (ACM). Three different levels of cement replacement were analyzed: 5%, 10% and 15% by cement weight. The specimens were manufactured in a local laboratory at an air temperature of 22 ± 2 °C and a humidity equal to 20 ± 1%. The chemical and physical properties of ordinary Portland cement and WMD has been found to be the most crucial parameters. A variety of macroscopic tests, such as apparent density, porosity and compressive strength, were proposed in order to explain the effect of utilizing the WMD on the ACM. To confirm the results of the macroscopic properties, thorough microstructural analysis using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was performed. The obtained results of this study indicate that replacing cement with WMD affects the physical and mechanical properties of air-cured mortar. The apparent density and compressive strength decrease while the porosity increases.

“…Some recent studies evaluated the possibility of using dried sludge of lime as a substitute to limestone in clinker production and reusing the waste slurry of marble as partial replacement of cement in production of concrete [10,11]. Another study evaluated that integrating sludge less up to 20% by mass may produce quality concrete bricks with satisfactory mechanical properties [12].…”

Water treatment plants (WTP) produce copious quantities of solid waste in the form of sludge that is deteriorating water resources, agriculture lands and human health. It should be discarded properly but a grave issue is finding ecological solution for its ultimate disposal. This study will provide an idea of incorporating sludge into soil-cement bricks that are used for construction providing dual benefits: reducing amounts of sludge and introducing cheaper bricks. A sample of sludge was analyzed for chemical constituents, plasticity value, particle size and content of organic matter. Sludge bricks incorporating 10 % of waste material by weight were prepared. The quality of sludge bricks was evaluated in terms of mechanical and physical properties (compressive strength test, water absorption test and apparent density test). The obtained results have revealed that waste material is mostly composed of plastic and could be utilized for manufacturing of sludge bricks. The compressive strength and density of bricks reduced with increasing amounts of sludge. However, the compressive strength of the bricks could even meet the standard requirement.
