The utilization of industrial waste produced
by industrial process has been the focus of
waste reduction research for economical,
environmental and technical reasons.
Sugarcane bagasse ash (SCBA) is a fibrous
waste - product of the sugar mill industry.
Sugarcane bagasse ash (SCBA) mainly
contains silica, ion, calcium and aluminium.
In this paper, bagasse ash has been
chemically and physically characterized,
and partially replaced in the ratio of 0 %, 5
%, 10 %, 15 % and 20 % ash by weight of
weight in Clay brick. The samples were
fired at temperatures between 800 C and
1100 C.
With the ever increasing demand and consumption
of natural resources and in the backdrop of waste
management, scientists and researchers all over
the world are always in quest for developing
alternate binders that are environment friendly and
contribute towards sustainable management.
Sugarcane bagasse (SCB) which is a voluminous
by-product in the sugar mills when juice is
extracted from the cane. It is, however, generally
used as a fuel to fire furnaces in the same sugar
mill that yields about 8-10% ashes containing high
amounts of un-burnt matter, silicon, aluminum, iron
and calcium oxides. The ash, therefore, becomes
an industrial waste and poses disposal problems

Low firing shrinkage, varying within a
range from 2.14 to 2.85 %
Bulk density ranged from 1,400 kg/m3
Increase in the weight loss on ignition (9-
13%). It is assumed that in the clay is
7.5%.
The compressive strength test results on
the brick indicated that the strength is
greatly dependent on the amount of
SCBA in brick.
on the basis of dry weights in a mixer on
two rolling of jar mill for 15 min in order
to keep the mixture of all batches nearly
the homogeneity. The SCBA-CS powder
mixtures were homogenized for 15 min in
a cylindrical dry mixer . then prepared in
batches and then uniaxially hydraulic
pressed at about 100 MPa to prepare

dimension. Plain Brick was prepared as a
reference specimen.
The molded specimens were air-dried at
room temperature for 24 h and then oven
dried at 105+5 or 105-5 degree C for
another 8 h to remove the water content,
each of the molded mixture 0, 10, and 20wt.
