Abstract:

Today with the increasing cost of construction materials, there is a need to curtail the cost by using cheaper substitutes. This review deals with How Granite Slurry Waste can be used to produce new products or can be used as admixtures. For sustainable development natural resources are used more effectively and efficiently so that the environment is protected from waste deposits. Granite stone industry generates both solid waste and stone slurry. Granite powder is one of the materials which severalty affects the environment and health problems. It is produced from sawing, shaping, and polishing process. Nevertheless, Natural sources are limited that’s why new materials might be able to play a role as cement and sand constituents in the future. It remains to be seen to what extent they could substitute to a significant degree. This review study showing various use of granite slurry waste as replacement of cement and sand in several industrial applications such as mortar, concrete, composite material and bricks.
