Abstract

The present industry scenario focuses on green manufacturing, in terms of effective reuse and recycling of the industrial wastes generated in enormous amount while preparing the product. The wastes also act as a threat to the society by causing various kinds of pollution. Therefore, the proper safe disposal of the same is a very critical factor. Most of the industries struggled with the enormous disposal of these wastes and finding ways for reuse and disposal. In this chapter, one such way of reuse of these wastes for making composite product is explored. Industrial wastes such as flyash and ricehusk used as fillers of varying weight percentages, 6%, 8%, 30%, 40%, and 50%, wt%, respectively, are reinforced with matrix. The prepared composites were subjected to flexural studies to know the load withstand ability. Results show that the incorporation of both fly ash and rice husk industrial wastes as filler into the polymer matrix increases the flexural strength. In addition, a low-cost product with high strength and good performance is obtained by adding this waste.
