This paper reports the effect of Rice Husk Ash (RHA) in geopolymer concrete on strength, durability and microstructural properties under ambient curing at a room temperature of 25℃ and 65±5% relative humidity. Rice husk was incinerated at 800℃ in a hot air oven. and ground in a ball mill to achieve the required fineness. RHA was partially added in 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35 percentages to fly ash with 10% of GGBS to produce geopolymer concrete. Test results exhibit that the substitution of RHA in geopolymer concrete resulted in reduced strength properties during initial curing. In the initial stage, workability of GPC mixes was affected by RHA particles due to the presence of dormant particles in it. It is evident from the microstructural study that the presence of RHA particles densifies the matrix reducing porosity in concrete. This is due to the presence of RHA in geopolymer concrete, which affects the ratio of silica and alumina, resulting in polycondensation reactions products. This study suggests that incorporation of rice husk ash in geopolymer concrete is the solution for effective utilization of waste materials and prevention of environmental pollution due to the dumping of industrial waste and to produce eco-friendly concrete.

Sodium hydroxide concentrations were adjusted to 2.0, 2.5, 3.0 and 3.5M by dissolution in seawater. The fly ash was hydrothermally reacted with sodium hydroxide solutions (1:8, W:V) at $100^{\circ}C$ under the closed system. X-ray diffractogram proved that Na-P1 type zeolite was produced from bituminous coal fly ash. It is different from the X-ray of artificial zeolite produced by using sodium hydroxide solution dissolving in distilled water. Solid sieve structure was developed well by hydrothermal reaction with the ash and 3.0M sodium hydroxide. However chinks were observed in the structure of the product by 3.5M sodium hydroxide. CEC of the artificial zeolite was $244.5cmol^+\;kg^{-1}$ at 2.0M, 259.8 at 3.0M, 263.4 at 3.0M and 179.8 at 3.5M after 24 hours hydrothermal reaction; Artificial zeolite having high CEC, above $244.5cmol^+\;kg^{-1}$ could produce by using lower concentration of NaOH prepared in seawater than other production methods.

Geopolymer cements and geopolymer resins are newly advanced mineral binders that are used in order to reduce the carbon dioxide generation that accompanies cement production. The effect of additives on the compressive strength of geopolymerized class-F fly ash was investigated. Blast furnace slag, calcium hydroxide($Ca(OH)_2$), and silica fume powders were added to fly ash. A geopolymeric reaction was initiated by adding a solution of water glass and sodium hydroxide(NaOH) to the powder mixtures. The compressive strength of pure fly ash cured at room temperature for 28 days was found to be as low as 291 $kgf/cm^{-2}$, which was not a suitable value for use in engineering materials. On the contrary, addition of 20 wt% and 40 wt% of blast furnace slag powders to fly ash increased the compressive strength to 458 $kgf/cm^{-2}$ and 750 $kgf/cm^{-2}$, respectively. 5 wt% addition of $Ca(OH)_2$ increased the compressive strength up to 640 $kgf/cm^{-2}$; further addition of $Ca(OH)_2$ further increased the compressive strength. When 2 wt% of silica fume was added, the compressive strength increased to 577 $kgf/cm^{-2}$; the maximum strength was obtained at 6 wt% addition of silica fume. It was confirmed that the addition of CaO and $SiO_2$ to the fly ash powders was effective at increasing the compressive strength of geopolymerized fly ash.

In Taiwan there are 21 Municipal Solid Waste Incinerators (MSWI) built to treat 80% of the MSW nationwide. Approximately 2,000 tons of incineration ashes of municipal waste contain reaction ash and fly ash (3:1 by weight)will be produced daily, and this may cause a serious waste problem. According to EPA regulations, reaction ash and fly ash produced after incineration should be properly treated. Landfill capacity barely meets the general demands. More efficient actions should be planned and taken. The study found 'reclamation' should be the optimal solution to this problem. Only limited research and previous successful experiences are available among other countries. An incinerator in Northern Taiwan is chosen for this study to make environmental bricks from the reaction ash and fly ash. From the previous tests, the results of strength test were measured. From the previous test results, the fly ash products have not reached the desired strength; hence, reaction ash is chosen for further pilot study. In the experiment, incineration ashes, cement and gravel are mixed in the ratio of 1:1:1(by weight), to ground concretization aggregate and pelletization aggregate, the concrete products made from the aggregates were of the strength of 108 $kgf/cm^2$ and 142 $kgf/cm^2$ individually. For the purpose of making nonstructural walls which met the State Building Standards. In the study, 50 tons of concrete products was yielded from aggregate and environmental bricks. Further observation and supervision are recommended to ascertain the resource recycling and reclamation. EPA has planned to build three 'Recycling Plants' in northern, middle and southern Taiwan to develop efficient techniques to produce concrete products, sub-base course, soundproofing wall, gravel, artificial fishing reefs, tiles, drainage, bricks and etc. This experiment of the demonstrative plant solves the problem of the incineration ashes and opens another opportunity to reclaim them.

The characteristics of filter/adsorber granular activated carbon (F/A GAC) were investigated by measuring various parameters, which include surface area, pore volume, abrasion number, floater, and water-soluble ash. The correlation between parameters was also evaluated. Moreover, rapid small-scale column test (RSSCT) was conducted for adsorption characteristics. Thirteen F/A GAC were tested, and the average values of abrasion number and water-soluble ash were 88.9 and 0.15%, respectively. F/A GAC with the larger external surface area and greater mesopore volume had the lower abrasion number, which indicated that it was worn out relatively easily. Water-soluble ash of coconut-based GAC (about 2.6%) was greater than that of coal-based GAC (less than 1%), and the pH of solution was increased with GAC, which had the higher water-soluble ash. On the other hand, floater of thirteen F/A GAC was divided as two groups, which one group had relatively higher floater (2.7~3.5%) and the other group had lower floater (approximately 0.5%). The results of RSSCT indicated that coconut-based GAC (i.e. relatively higher water-soluble ash) had less adsorption capacity. Moreover, adsorption capacity of coal-based GAC with larger surface area and greater mesopore volume was superior to others.

1997년의 국내 플라이애쉬 발생량은 약 300만톤에 이르고 그 중 약 50만톤이 콘크리트 혼화재료로, 약 30만톤이 시멘트 원료 및 콘크리트 2차제품의 원료로 재활용되었지만 외국에서 재활용율이 높은 지반개량재로는 거의 실적이 없다. 따라서, 본 연구의 목적은 화력발전소의 부산물인 플라이애쉬로 부터 초미분말을 분급하여 부가가치가 큰 초미립자 주입재로 적용할 수 있는지 가능성을 확인하고자 한다. 본 연구를 위해서 블레인 비표면적 6,000$cm^2$/g, 8,000$cm^2$/g의 2수준과, 플라이애쉬 첨가량 30%, 50%, 70%의 3수준 등 총 6가지 조합의 시제품을 만들었으며, 각각에 대해서 시멘트 특성, 주입재 특성을 평가하였다. 시멘트의 물리적 특성, 주입재의 작업시간확보, 주입재 고결체의 내구성 측면에서 분석한 결과, 플라이애쉬계 초미분말 주입재의 플라이애쉬 첨가량의 한계는 50%이하로 하는 것이 요망된다. 또한, 플라이애쉬에 함유되어 있는 미연카본에 의해서 현탁액의 표면에 탄소피막이 형성되고 계면활성제의 소요량이 증가하므로 가급적 미연탄소 함유량이 적은 정제된 플라이애쉬를 사용하는 것이 필요하다. 본 연구를 통해서 화력발전소의 폐기물인 플라이애쉬를 고부가가치 제품인 초미립자주입재로 적용이 가능함을 확인하였으며, 국내의 기술여건에서도 폐기플라이애쉬로 부터 고분말 플라이애쉬를 분급하는 것이 기술적으로 가능하기 때문에 본 연구성과는 현장적용성이 매우 높은 것으로 평가되었다.
