4. Conclusions
- The results showed that the heat treatment has influenced the pozzolanic potential of FOSA. The effect of the calcination temperature was more preponderant on the XRF and XRD results. The chemical composition of FOSA varied according to the temperature and duration of combustion. All of the ash samples were essentially composed of CaO. The variability in SiO2 and CaO content was a result of LOI variation. All tested samples have an approximately similar chemical composition, and are similar to the raw constituents used in cement production;
- Grinding and calcination were effective in removing organic matter, but they cannot be used as the exclusive method to boost FOSA pozzolanic activity, because even after these treatments the material does not reach an appropriate significant reactivity. The pozzolanic activity of FOSA was observed to be closely correlated to the calcination temperature. The pozzolanic activity of FOSA could not be adequately stimulated via calcination at 550 °C. As a result, the effective heat activation temperature for FOSA was around 850 °C. In contrast, in the SAI with cement test, the difference in the pozzolanic activity between treated and non-treated ashes was greater. This is due to the higher filling effect. The raw ash reached the standard values required for classifying the material as a pozzolan material based on the compressive strength requirements. This opens the opportunity to investigate other types of upgrading processes;
- The results of compressive strength are considered suitable to be used in several construction materials in which low strength is required. The increment in the percentage of replacement reduces the strength of the produced mortar at all levels of treatment. A curing age of 28 days and more improves the compressive strength and solved delays in the activity and the dilution effect. The maximum compressive strength at all ages was recorded at 850 °C calcination temperature for 2 h with 10% replacement;
- The developed model using RSM was effectively used to evaluate the compressive strength of FOSA-based mortar. The ANOVA results confirmed the significance of all investigated parameters. The optimum responses were obtained at 30% cement replacement, 700 °C calcination temperature for 2 h, and 56 days of curing. The developed optimization technique assists in determining the balance for getting eligible properties.
