Performance the energy dispersive x-ray analysis & x-ray diffraction analysis for R-husk ash
Author(s): Sahil and Sumesh Jain
Abstract: A large portion of the husk created during rice processing is either burned or disposed of as waste in most rice-producing nations. One of the most abundant yet underutilized biomass resources is rice husks, which make them a perfect fuel for producing energy. The author of this communication conducted X-ray diffraction experiments on rice husk ash (RHA) concrete samples heated at 500 °C and 1000 °C. The results were compared, and it was found that the specimen's inner surface exhibits an additional compound at 500 °C. The additional chemical compounds formed at lower temperatures were not present at 1000 °C on the outer and inner surfaces of the sample, according to X-ray diffraction studies of samples exposed to this temperature. This could be the cause of the specimens' poor strengths. These experiments show how RHA can improve concrete's durability qualities and help produce high-strength concrete at a reasonable cost by utilizing waste resources.
