“…Increasing the binder's contribution raised the Impact According to the literature, increasing in the proportion of binder with stone dust in the compound for agglomeration does not always produce positive results [10,13]. Acceptable bricks were obtained for the 15% addition of cement in a mixture of limestone and compressive strength was greater than 7 MPa [6]. In the case of the production of fine stone cobble cubes the cement content is from 15% to 30% [14].…”

In the paper we discuss the possibility of using stone dust for utilizing as building material. The tested material was amphibolite, found in the Sudeten Mountains and the Tatra Mountains in Poland. The chemical composition of dust was determined by means of spectrometry methods. Moreover, the basic physical properties of the material were designated. Stone dust was mixed with starch or cement binder. The binder addition was from 5% to 20% by weight. The water content was adjusted to about 25% humidity. The mixture was then compressed in a hydraulic press at 50 MPa. The results of the mechanical toughness of agglomerates were shown. On the basis of the results, acceptable toughness of agglomerates was found, with the addition of cement in mass share 20% and seasoning for 48 hours. However, starch was not suitable as a binder for agglomeration of amphibolite.

“…The need of reducing the carbon foot print associated to cement production drove much research towards the study of by-products to be used as supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs). Many previous researches [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] undertaken obtained valuable results to use the industrial wastes in various forms of concrete production. For instance, the use of waste rubber, glass powder, and rice husk ash in concrete mix or cement mortar has received conscribe attention over the past years.…”

This paper presents the comparison of results i.e., (compressive strength of cement) by the experimental study and Regression model to evaluate the possibility of utilizing the hylam powder as a partial replacement in cement mortar. The remarkable increase in the production of hylam and its disposal in an ecofriendly manner is increasingly becoming a matter of global concern. Hylam powder is a waste produced from hylam sheets at the time of fabrication (Cutting, Making holes and polishing process) is used as a partial replacement in cement. A total 63cement cube were casted and tested for 3,7& 28days of seven mortar mix (i.e. 0%, 3%, 5%, 7%, 10%, 13% & 15% of Hylam powder was replaced by weight of cement). The results show that incorporation of the hylam powder yields to the increase of strength at the age (28 days) in comparison with that of a control mortar.

“…Galetakis and Raka have mixed limestone dust with Portland cement for producing artificial stone. The results indicate that limestone can be used and give the acceptable compressive strength [3]. Utilization of limestone dust for brick making has been investigated in Egypt, finding of this research shows that 87% of limestone dust can be replaced on cement in the composition of bricks [4].…”

Abstract. Utilizing crushed limestone dust; the by-product of crushing limestone plant for producing non-fired wall tiles is the objective of this research. The main raw materials of non-fired wall tiles consist of laterite soil, fluvial sand and Portland cement. The crushed limestone dust has been used as the substitute material of non-fired wall tiles for enhancing their bending strength. In this experiment, four groups of formulas have been constructed. Firstly, crushed limestone dust has been mixed into the basic formula for substitution of laterite soil. Secondly, crushed limestone dust has been used for substitution to river soil of the basic formula. Thirdly, it has been substituted to Portland cement in the basic formula. Finally, the best formulas of the first three groups has been selected and mixed up to make the new formulas. After mixing the raw materials of selected formula, forming specimens by uni-axial pressing at 100 bar has been performed. Then, they have been aged for 1 week at the room temperature. After that, testing the specimens' properties has been carried out. They are bending strength and water absorption which comparing with Thailand Industrial Standard (TIS) 614-2529. The experimental results show that adding the crushed limestone dust to the basic composition has an effect on the bending strength and water absorption. The compositions of the best formula are laterite soil 55%, fluvial sand 7.5%, Portland cement 22.5%, and crushed limestone dust 15%. It gives the bending strength by 2.32 MPa, water absorption 3.20%. The water absorption property can pass the TIS standard, but bending strength could not pass. The estimated cost of raw materials is 0.09065 THB/100 g.
