Characterization of Wastewater Produced Concrete using Selected Mix Ratio of Crushed Waste Glass as Partial Replacement for Sand
Concrete, a fundamental material in construction, comprises cement, aggregates, water, and various admixtures. Its widespread use raises significant environmental concerns due to the depletion of natural resources and high CO2 emissions. This study explores the sustainable integration of waste glass and domestic wastewater (laundry sources) as partial replacements for fine aggregate and potable water in concrete production. The research investigates the mechanical properties, durability, and workability of concrete incorporating varying proportions of crushed waste glass and wastewater. Regression and ANOVA analyses are evaluate the relationships and significance of various factors affecting concrete performance. The findings provide insights into the potential of using waste glass and domestic wastewater in concrete production, aiming to create a database on the effects of impurities in wastewater on concrete properties and promote sustainable construction practices. The results are expected to guide policymakers and construction professionals in adopting eco-friendly building methods, thus supporting global sustainability goals.
