Application of Waste Bakelite as a Partial Replacement of Fine Aggregate: Review
Keywords:
Bakelite, Fine Aggregate, Cement, Concrete Cubes, Workability, Crushing StrengthAbstract
Bakelite is a synthetic polymer; it poses a disposal challenge and negatively impacts the environment and public health. Numerous researchers have explored converting discarded Bakelite into a useful construction material within the field of civil engineering to address this issue. Waste made of bakelite is usually burnt or disposed of in landfills, both of which are bad for the environment and living things. There is a waste management conundrum because Bakelite cannot be disposed of by open burning or direct landfilling. The purpose of this study is to look into the possibility of using leftover Bakelite to partially substitute natural sand in the making of concrete. Specifically, the goal is to determine whether replacing some of the traditional M25-grade concrete mix with Bakelite can enhance the concrete’s compressive strength. Furthermore, Bakelite waste is being tested as a substitute for certain fine and coarse aggregates in the production of bricks, paver blocks, and solid blocks. The strength of these materials is assessed and compared with conventional alternatives.
