Geopolymerization of Coal Fly Ash, Ceramic Tile Waste and Spent Bleaching Earth for the Production of Sodium Aluminosilicate Monolith

In this study, compressive strength, density, porosity, and methylene blue adsorptive intensity of sodium aluminosilicate monolith produced from coal fly ash (CFA), ceramic tile waste (CTW), and spent bleaching earth (SBE) were evaluated. Using simple lattice mixture design, CFA-CTW-SBE blend with m...

Description
Summary:In this study, compressive strength, density, porosity, and methylene blue adsorptive intensity of sodium aluminosilicate monolith produced from coal fly ash (CFA), ceramic tile waste (CTW), and spent bleaching earth (SBE) were evaluated. Using simple lattice mixture design, CFA-CTW-SBE blend with mass ratio of 55.95% CFA, 38.73% CTW, and 5.31% SBE, and an alkali solution containing 80% 8M NaOH and 20% sodium silicate, resulted to a maximum desirability of 12.4MPa compressive strength, 1310 kg/m3 density, 17.03% porosity, and 1.63% methylene blue adsorption intensity. The properties of the product conform to the specifications of ASTM C90-14 for lightweight load-bearing concrete.
