Use of pulp and paper mill residual solids in production of cellucrete
Source abstract
Abstract
Fibrous residuals generated from pulp and paper mills were included in concrete. Carefully proportioned concrete mixtures containing some of the residuals showed higher compressive and splitting-tensile strengths than concrete without the residuals. Overall, a high correlation was observed between density and strength of concrete containing the residuals. By achieving equivalent density, concrete containing the residuals may be produced equivalent in strength to the concrete without the residuals.
