A BRIEF REVIEW OF THE SUGARCANE BAGASSE ASH AS PARTIAL REPLACEMENT OF CEMENT WITH SINTERED EARTHEN BLOCKS OF FIBER-REINFORCED CONCRETE

This review article will examine how solid waste may be utilized, which is formed from the production of sugar factories, as well as how sintered earthen blocks can be used to replace coarse aggregate, which is made in large amounts in India. These materials are the ones that are generated in vast numbers in India. It has a very high silica content, which enables it to perform the essential function of an efficient pozzolan material, which in turn leads to an improvement in the cementitious materials and makes them appropriate for use as binding materials in the construction of buildings using a variety of mixes of concrete. Ash from sugarcane bagasse, which is a waste of product, is used for solutions in waste management that are both viable and cost efficient. According to a number of studies that were conducted, increasing the replacement percentage of cement in a mix while also increasing the amount of coarse aggregate resulted in a stronger end product that was also more durable. In today’s world, waste materials are frequently used into the process of preparing ordinary concrete that is suited for use in mass building. In the study that is being presented, this category of waste materials is being deemed to be the third largest material utilised by human beings, after only food and water. In addition to the destruction of forests and the combustion of fossil fuels, the production of cement by industry is a source of carbon dioxide emissions. In conclusion, sugarcane bagasse ash has not only enhanced performance in the majority of the cases, but it has also decreased the cost of the material. This leads to the conclusion that sugarcane bagasse ash is acceptable for mass concrete, which is a true and incredibly valuable option for waste management as well as cost economy.
