Dissolved feldspar turns into kaolinite, very fine clay used to make porcelain. There is also much more potent "acid water" which is an effect of oxidization of metal sulphides - like pyrite (fools gold FeS2) - in a presence of bacteria - and are a typical waste product in copper mines, where they damage rocks and wooden tools.
The most commonly used fine aggregate is rive sand. Now-a-days river sand availability is very low so an alternative is made. Granite sludge powder (GSP) it is a byproduct obtained from the granite industries while cutting the granite rocks. Then the granite sludge …
Hence the reuse of waste materials has been emphasized. Wastes can be used to produce new products or can be used as admixtures so that natural resources are used more efficiently and the environment is protected from waste efficiently. 2. OBJECTIVES The major objective of this project stand the use of granite
construction industry. Some alternative materials have already been used in place of natural river sand. For example, fly ash, slag and lime stone, siliceous stone powder, rock dust and quarry waste were use dim concrete mixture as a partial replacement of natural sand. …
As one of the world leading producers of natural stones for ornamental purpose, mainly marble and granite, Brazil also generates an increasing amount of corresponding wastes. Several alternatives have locally been proposed for the application of these wastes, including the incorporation into cement matrix concretes. In the present work a granite waste, generated by a sawing system composed of ...
The effect of high temperature and air cooling on the mechanical properties and microstructure of mortars incorporating manufactured sand (MS) and granite powder (GP) waste as river sand (RS) substitutes has been studied. Results of study on one type of each material show that the compressive strength, split tensile strength and flexural strength at room temperature are increased …
Singh et al. (2015a) utilized Granite cutting waste to replace natural sand from 0% to 40% in concrete and observed decrease in the workability of concrete as the percentage of GCW was increased ...
properties of bricks manufactured by mixing sand and waste plastics. This study is expected to provide some information regarding the suitability of such sand plastic bricks for use in construction industry. 2. EXPERIMENTAL 2.1 Materials The plastics used in the experimental program are waste compact disc (CD) and waste water bottles.
Singh et al. (2015a) utilized Granite cutting waste to replace natural sand from 0% to 40% in concrete and observed decrease in the workability of concrete as the percentage of GCW was increased ...
The disposal of plastics is a highly visible global problem – from the highest mountains to the deepest ocean trenches, waste plastic seems inescapable.In natural conditions, plastics are nearly ...
industries from Salem District, as alternative raw materials in the production of concrete. This granite powder waste can be utilized for the preparation of concrete as partial replacement of sand. In order to explore the possibility of utilizing the granite powder as partial replacement to sand, an experimental investigation has been carried out.

In order to bring a solution to the problem of waste foundry sand (WFS) in the foundry sector and achieve its reuse, geopolymer building material (as a cementless technology) was produced from the WFS for the first time in the literature in this study. The physical and mechanical characteristics of this material were determined. In the first part of the experimental step, the sieve analysis ...
Our recycled granite pavers are 3 times stronger than concrete pavers and will NEVER fade or wear. Stay tuned for more sustainably manufactured products including granite fines and aggregates.You can feel safe using natural stone since it doesn't emit any volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Plus, all of our products are created using ...
In recent years, the construction industry has been faced with a decline in the availability of natural sand due to the growth of the industry. On the other hand, the metal casting industries are being forced to find ways to safely dispose of waste foundry sand (FS). With the aim of resolving both of these issues, an investigation was carried out on the reuse of waste FS as an alternative ...
USE OF MARBLE AND GRANITE WASTE- ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECT Rajasthan is being the biggest supplier of construction aggregate in India has abundance of good quality of marble, dolomite and granite. As marble is being used from over many centuries in construction of monuments due to its high compressive strength and availability.
natural river sand has become scarce and very costly. Hence we are forced to think of alternative materials. The Quarry dust may be used in the place of river sand fully or partly. A comparatively good strength is expected when sand is replaced partially or fully with or without concrete admixtures.
in the quarry industries is often considered as waste and is often used as landfills (Rashid, at el, 2013). The construction industries in the developing world is looking for alternative materials that can replace the demand for natural sand, thereby reduce environmental load
The fine aggregates were graded in accordance with BS 812 part 1:1975. The coarse aggregate was crushed granite chippings of 20mm normal size and the cement conformed to BS 12. The river sand and the quarry dust used were those passing sieve 2 I I and retained on sieve 150𝜇 and the coarse aggregate (granite chipping) was passed through
3) The study provides solution for sustainable development, avoiding environmental degradation by minimization of usage of sand as fine aggregates in the building products which minimize the cost of construction. 4) Utilization of granite waste in construction industry produces economical and eco-friendly building blocks.
Several researchers have proposed the use of rice husk ash, silica fume, ground granulated blast furnace slag, fly ash, quarry dust [5,6,7], etc. as the alternatives to the natural river sand. Yet, the use of granite dust nowadays draws the attention of researchers around the world .
To obtain maximum compressive strength, the order of pozzolanic waste material used as a partial substitute of OPC cement can be concluded as: 5% Stone Dust > 10% Granite Powder REFERRENCES [1].

M-Sand. Manufactured sand is an alternative for river sand. Due to fast growing construction industry, the demand for sand has increased tremendously, causing deficiency of suitable river sand in most part of the word. Due to the depletion of good quality river sand for the use of construction, the use of manufactured sand has been increased.
