Physical Characteristics of Cement Mortar Containing WPS Ash and PF as Partial Replacement of Cement and Sand

The Waste Paper Sludge WPS discharged from paper mills is creating environmental pollution, like, air pollution and land pollution. Hence it is suggested to reuse the paper sludge in the form of ash after incinerating at high temperature for the replacement of cement and sand in cement mortar. In this research works, it is planned to ascertain the physical performance of the cement mortar containing paper sludge. On the basis of the results obtained by conducting several tests, it is concluded that when the sand and cement replaced by waste paper sludge ash, the flow properties of the cement mortar containing paper sludge are improved by adding the Superplasticizer. The water absorption and weight reduction of the cement mortar containing paper sludge are enhanced by adding Polypropylene Fibre. R.
