Research of Properties and Rational Composition of Ecosafe Building Materials with Ash-and-Slag Waste from Masute Fuel And Coal Combustion

Abstract

The study evaluates the method for determination of the rational technical and economic indicators, namely the rational composition and flexural strength, of building materials containing ash-and-slag obtained from heat-and-electric power plant as waste from the combustion of masute and coal. Results of method application were obtained. The study is aimed on reduction of the negative technogenic impact on the lithosphere by developing an appropriate environmental protection technology for utilization of the mentioned above waste as a replacement of sand in building materials made of cement-sand mixture. The rational composition of the building materials containing ash-and-slag waste granules was selected basing on the results of two stages of experimental research – mechanical bending tests of straight two-support beams on a rupture machine. It was proposed to provide a complex index for assessment of the efficiency of ash-and-slag waste disposal in the building materials, which refers to relation of the strength limit to the density of the material per unit value. The results of calculation of the index magnitudes were obtained.
