Manufacturing of Fly Ash Bricks by Using Waste Plastic
Abstract
Fly ash is produced in significant quantities, especially by thermal power plants. Plastics are produced in vast quantities as the population grows. Waste management has become a major concern, especially the disposal of used plastic bags. The house is big and getting bigger. Each has major environmental consequences. Our project's major goal is to use those polymers and fly ash in the production of bricks. The fly ash bricks were cast, and the plastics were powdered and applied up to 20% with a 5% interval in this research. On plastic fly ash bricks, compressive strength tests, water absorption tests, and efflorescence tests are performed. The following are the advantages of plastic bricks made from waste plastics.
