Abstract

This research studied the possibility of the use industrial waste Porcelain (which contain 56% SiO2) as alternative material to each Portland cement and Aluminum cement separately to take advantage of this material in Portland cement manufacturing, and together to get rid of environment pollution. The industrial waste Porcelain added to the mix Clinker - Gypsum in Portland cement and to the finished Aluminum cement by percents of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, and 35% w/w and it was compared with reference sample that does not contain industrial waste Porcelain to figure out the affect of adding industrial waste Porcelain on the properties of cement. It was concluded that the industrial waste Porcelain could be added to each Portland cement and Aluminum cement without affecting significantly the cement properties.
