Recycling of ashes from thermal stations for the production of an ecological mortar: New application in civil engineering

Abstract

The main idea of this work is to investigate about the flexural and compressive forces of the mortar, which was developed from fly ash, hearth ash, and magnetized water with different times of magnetization. The results of this work reveal that the flexural and compressive force of mortars realized with magnetized water is higher than those prepared with non magnitezed water. The best result of increasing the flexural and the compressive forces of the mortar are obtained when the water magnetization time is equal to 20 min. The growth in flexural and the compressive forces of the mortar elaborated with magnetized water is proportional to the magnetization time.
