REVIEW ON THE EFFECT OF BOTTOM ASH IN PERFORMANCE OF PORTLAND CEMENT MORTAR

摘要

Utilization and suitability of bottom ash in Portland cement have been increasing significantly in recent year. Bottom ash has substantial effects on mechanical properties with different composition of replacement in mixture of bottom ash and Portland cement. Bottom ash was used to determine the feasibility of the substitution as recycling product from industry depending on the percentage of the bottom ash. On the other hand, bottom ash offers a better solution for maintaining materials characteristic of Portland cement mortar and also provide beneficial mechanical performance. The result of using bottom ash in Portland cement mortar showed that it could make better the mechanical properties and hence disposed bottom ash wastes safely in technical, economic and environmental methods.
