Utilizing Eggshell Powder and Municipal Solid Waste Ash for Eco Friendly Construction
Keywords:
egg shell powder (ESP), municipal solid waste ash (MSWA), workability, tensile strength and compressive strength.Abstract
With rapid industrialization, the accumulation of industrial by-products has become a significant environmental and economic challenge, particularly due to disposal issues such as landfilling. Among these waste materials, eggshells are a major biodegradable by-product generated in large quantities by chick hatcheries, bakeries, and fast-food restaurants. Improper disposal of eggshell waste can lead to ecological contamination, necessitating effective waste management strategies.
