امکان فاضلاب به عنوان مخلوط آب در سیمان

This paper presents the feasibility of wastewater from small scale water treatment plants located in residential buildings as mixing water in Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC). Fourteen water treatment plants were found out in the Narasaraopet municipality region in Guntur district, Andhra Pradesh, India. Approximately, from each plant, between 3500 and 4000 L/day of potable water is selling to consumers. All plants are extracting ground water and treating through Reverse Osmosis (RO) process. During water treatment, plants are discharging approximately 1,00,000 L/day as wastewater in side drains in Narasaraopet municipality. Physical and chemical analysis was carried out on fourteen plants wastewater and distilled water as per [1]. In the present work, based on the concentrations of constituent’s in wastewater, four typical plants i.e., Narasaraopeta Engineering College (NECWW), PatanKhasim Charitable Trust (PKTWW), MahmadhKhasim Charitable Trust (MKTWW) and Amara (ARWW) were considered. The performance of four plants wastewater on physical properties i.e., setting times, compressive strength, and flexural strength of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) were performed in laboratories and compared same with reference specimens i.e., made with Distilled Water (DW) as mixing water. No significant change was observed in initial setting time but significant change was observed in finial setting time. No significant change was observed in 90 days compressive strengths in four plants wastewater compared to that of reference specimens. XRD technique was employed to find out main hydration compounds formed in the process.
