A Review Study on Utilization of Copper Slag for Replacement with Different Percentage of Concrete

The continue progression of concrete construction could reducing the utilization of naturally occurring resource and minimize the impact of pollutants on surroundings atmosphere. Recently more quantity of Copper Slag is obtained in processing of production of steel in plants and copper producing industry with an important impact on environment and humans. This project describes the feasibility of using the Copper Slag in concrete production as half substitution of cement. Dumping unwanted substances directly to the atmosphere could increase ecological problem. Therefore recycle this unwanted substances has been focused. This unwanted substances or waste product could be use to obtain another products or it could also be use like admixtures. Thus naturally obtained resources are used more professionally so that atmosphere is safe against waste deposition. And copper slag is an industrial waste that is obtained by manufacturing process of copper. But records analysizing that 1tonne of copper manufacture leads to production of 2.25 tones of copper slag. While copper slag is generally adopted for various purposes like land filling and abbrasive tools preparation, low quality tools and railway ballast materials. Inspite of all these application all over the world only 18 % of copper slag is used remaining 82% comes under wastage. but if We adopted this material as substitute in construction material it will have a promising future. At the same time the remaining 82 % waste copper slag have added value in construction industry and at land filling problem will get solve. Therefore the scientifically or industrial community must commit towards more sustainable practices. There is different reusable or recyclable product for industrial by-product, both are used in new phase or in practical applications. This unwanted substance which is obtain by industry is dump in nearby land so that fertility of soil is spoiled. The chemical, mechanical, physical properties of unwanted substances are examined. In INDIA, copper slag is used as partial substitution in concrete mix and its effects. Slump cone and compressive strengthening test of freshen and hardened concrete were also examined.
