Effect of Glass Powder in Cement Concrete

In a growing country like India a huge amount of industrial waste are polluting the environmental. The utilization of waste glass powder in cement concrete has gained increasing attention as a sustainable approach to recycling glass waste and reducing environmental impact. Waste glass, when ground into fine powder, can act as a supplementary cementitious material due to its pozzolanic properties, partially replacing cement in concrete mixes. Results demonstrate that glass powder incorporation not only reduces cement consumption but also improves the durability of concrete, making it a promising alternative for sustainable concrete production. This research provides insights into effective waste management practices, promotes circular economy principles, and contributes to the development of eco-friendly construction materials.
