Utilization of Palm Oil Clinker as Cement Replacement Material

Utilization of Palm Oil Clinker as Cement Replacement Material

The utilization of waste materials from the palm oil industry provides immense benefit to various sectors of the construction industry. Palm oil clinker is a by-product from the processing stages of palm oil goods. Channelling this waste material into the building industry helps to promote sustainability besides overcoming waste disposal problems. Environmental pollution due to inappropriate wa...

Utilization of waste glass as sand replacement in cement mortar

In this study, alkali silica reaction (ASR) expansion and strength characteristics of mortar containing waste glasses are analyzed in terms of waste glass content and glass color. Three different colors of waste glasses (white, green and brown) are replaced with sand at ratios of 10%, 30% and 100% by weight. The mixtures used in this study did not show a considerable ASR expansion. All batches ...

Oil Palm Fibers as Papermaking Material: Potentials and Challenges

The Digestion , Absorption and Utilization of Refined Palm Oil , Palm Olein and Palm

A nutritional evaluation of refined, bleached and deodorised (RBD) palm oil and its fractionation products, RBD palm olein and RBD palm stearin in terms of their digestibility, rate of absorption and food efficiency in rats, shows that RBD palm olein is a better oil by these criteria than RBD palm stearin and the unfractionated RBD palm oil. Nevertheless, the nutritional indices reported for RB...

Rapid Chloride Permeability Test on Lightweight Concrete Made with Oil Palm Clinker

This paper presents an experimental program on rapid chloride permeability test on lightweight concrete produced from oil palm clinker aggregates. Oil palm clinker is obtained from by-product of palm oil milling. Utilising oil palm clinker in concrete production not only solves the problem of disposing this solid waste but also help to converse natural resources. The parameter of investigation ...
