| الملخص: | Kwantas Oil Sdn bhd was incorporated with Kwantas Corporate Berhad were specialized
in palm oil biomass power plant. From the production process, more than 65% bleaching
earth (bentonite earth ash) were produced. Bleaching earth is a waste from bleaching
process of crude palm oil. This factory is producing 15mt of bentonite earth ash per day.
Meanwhile, the actual production of Portland cement contributes 13.5 billion tons of
carbon dioxide per year (1 ton of carbon dioxide for each ton of produced cement) which is
equivalent to 7% of the total global emission of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.
Therefore, research on consuming waste (fly ash) to produce concrete was carried out as
contribution towards greener environment. This concrete was produced from mixtures of
coal fly ash, blast furnace slag, a potassium silicate solution and water, in which the
bentonite ash is the major component. The mix composition using 10-50% of the weight is
bentonite ash to substitute Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC). The reduction of OPC
consumption will produced green concrete because during mixing process of OPC will
release C02 to atmosphere. This concrete can be used as a normal concrete for multi
purposes usage in construction especially as a brick wall because the compressive
strength is more than 7 MPa. |
