The purpose of this study is to propose a 40MPa mortar mixed design model that applies the neural network theory to minimize wasted effort in trial and error. A mixed design model was applied to each of the 60 data using fly ash, blast furnace slag fine powder and thickened rice husk powder. And in the neural network model, the optimized connection weight was obtained by repeatedly applying it to the MATLAB. The completed mixed design model was demonstrated by analyzing and comparing the predicted values of the mixed design model with those measured in the actual compressive strength test. As a result of the mixed design verification experiment, the error rates of the double mixed non-cement mortar using blast furnace slag fine powder and rice husk powder at a height of 40MPa were 3.24% and 3.4%. Mixed with fly ash and rice husk powder had an error rate of 3.94% and 5.8%. The error rate of the triple mixed non-cement mortar of the rice husk powder, fly ash, and blast furnace slag fine powder was 2.5% and 5.1%.

This work was conducted to study the operating characteristics of a grinding system designed to obtain fine rice husk ash powder. To find better utilizing of rice husk, a valuable by-product from rice production, once the rice husk was incinerated and the thermal energy was recovered from the furnace, the ash was fed and pulverized in the grinding system resulting a fine powder to be used as a supplementary adding material to the portland cement manufacturing . The rice husk ash grinding system consisted of a high speed centrifugal fan for the preliminary coarse milling and a dry-type stirred ball mill for the subsequent fine grinding . Total grinding time 9 5, 15, 30, 45 min), impeller speed (250, 500, 750 rpm) , and mixed ratio (4.8, 7.9, 14.9) were three operating factors examined for the performance of a stirred ball mill used for the fine grinding of ash. With the stirred ball mill used in this study, the minimum attianable mean diameter of rice husk ash powder appeared to be 2 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. During the find grinding, the difference in specific surface area of powder showed an increase and the grinding energy efficiency decreased with the increase in total grinding time, impeller speed ,and mixed ratio. For the operating conditions employed , the resulting mean diameter of fine ash powder, specific energy input, and grinding energy efficiency were in the range of 1.79 --16.04${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, 0.072-5.226kWh/kg, an d1.11-12.15$m^2$/Wh, respectively. Grinding time of 30 min , impeller speed of 750 rpm, and mixed ratio of 4.8 were chosen as the best operating conditions of the stirred ball mill for fine grinding . At these conditions, mean particle diameter of the fine ash, grinding energy efficiency, grinding throughtput, and specific energy input were 2.73${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, 3.95$m^2$/Wh, 0.25kg/h, and 1.22kWh/kg, respectively.

The present study aimed to examine the effect of dietary Ptecticu tenebrifer powder mixtures as pet dogfeed ingredients on crude fat and ash digestibility. Three groups of feeds Feed A, Feed B, and Feed C supplied from three farms were fed to a total of 45 dogs. The dietary Ptecticu tenebrifer powder mixture were prepared by mixing 25 g of Ptecticu tenebrifer powder with 100 g of canned food. Feed A, Feed B, and Feed C containing dietary Ptecticu tenebrifer powder mixtures were fed to 15 dogs of each breed of bichon, poodle, and chihuahua that were divided into three groups following a completely randomized design. For measuring the crude fat and crude ash digestibility, manure of each dog breed from each group were collected. Crude fat digestibility was not statistically significant among the dog breeds fed with feed C (p>0.05), but overall there was a statistical difference between the feed and the group by dog breed (p<0.05). In terms of crude ash digestibility, the three types of feed showed differences with respect to dog breeds (p<0.05). However, the group with no significant difference was observed in Feed B by dog breed (p>0.05). In conclusion, feeding Ptecticu tenebrifer powder mixture to dog breeds had no positive effect on the crude fat and ash digestibility and can be used as pet dogfeed ingredients.

In this paper, setting and hydration heat development characteristics with three binder types, type IV cement＋fly ash, type IV cement＋slag powder and type IV cement ＋ limestone powder. were investigate. As results, it was shown that the limestone powder decreased the initial setting time regardless of replacement ratio, especially the range of 20~50% replacement ratio, and the 2nd peak was shifted ahead when the limestone powder replacement ratio increased. But for the f1y ash and the limestone powder, contrary results were obtained compared with the limestone powder.

The hydration of cement paste occurs when the cement is miked with water. During the hydration, hydration heat causes the thermal stress depending on the site of concrete and the cement content. Especially in the high-strength concrete, we must give care to the concrete due to its large cement content. In this study conduction calorimeter and concrete insulation hydration heat meter were used to investigation the hydration heat characteristics of cement and concrete. To reduce hydration heat of high-strength concrete, several types of replacement of fly-ash and blast-furnace slag powder were used in this experiment. As a result of this study, it was found that hydration heat of high-strength concrete was reduced by replacement of fly-ash and blast-furnace slag powder. In case of high-strength concrete using blast-furnace slag powder, the max-heat arrival time was delayed but an effect of heat reduction was lower than a case of high-strength concrete using fly-ash, because it was considered that the heat-dependence property of blast-furnace slag powder was higher than that of fly-ash.

Lightweight materials were fabricated using glass abrasive sludge, bottom ash and slag powder in this study. This study tried to draw the correlation between physical properties and internal pore of lightweight material. The content of bottom ash and slag powder was from 10% to 50% and firing temperature from $760{^{\circ}C}\;to\;800{^{\circ}C}$ in rotary kiln. The lightweight material containing bottom ash or slag powder had a specific gravity of $0.21{\sim}0.70$ at particle size $2{\sim}4$ mm. Replacement ratio of the admixture increasing with specific gravity increased. Fracture strength of panel made with various lightweight materials was $32{\sim}55\;kgf/cm^2$ and flexural strength was $11{\sim}18\;kgf/cm^2$. Fracture strength increased by 72% and flexural strength was 63% compared with reference. Thermal conductivities of panel was $0.07{\sim}0.11W/m{\cdot}k$. The water absorption ratios of panel with lightweight materials containing bottom ash were $1.8{\sim}2.8$% and slag powder were $2.65{\sim}2.8$%. Excellent results on resistant of water absorption.

The rich recipe of ultra high performance concrete (UHPC) offers the higher mechanical, durability and dense microstructure property. The variable like cement/sand ratio, amount of supplementary cementitious material, water/binder ratio, amount of fiber etc. alters the UHPC hardened properties to any extent. Therefore, to understand the effects of these variables on the performance of UHPC, inevitably a stage-wise development is required. In the present experimental study, the effect of sand/cement ratio, the addition of finer material (fly ash and quartz powder) and, hybrid fiber on the fresh, compressive and microstructural property of UHPC is evaluated. The experiment is conducted in three phases; the first phase evaluates the flow value and strength attainment of ingredients, the second phase evaluates the efficiency of finer materials (fly ash and quartz powder) to develop the UHPC and the third phase evaluate the effect of hybrid fiber on the flow value and strength of ultra high performance hybrid fiber reinforced concrete (UHP-HFRC). It has been seen that the addition of fly ash improves the flow value and compressive strength of UHPC as compared to quartz powder. Further, the usage of hybrid fiber in fly ash contained matrix decreases the flow value and improves the strength of the UHP-HFRC matrix. The dense interface between matrix and fiber and, a higher amount of calcium silicate hydrate (CSH) in fly ash contained UHP-HFRC is revealed by SEM and XRD respectively. The dense interface (bond between the fiber and the UHPC matrix) and the higher CSH formation are the reason for the improvement in the compressive strength of fly ash based UHP-HFRC. The differential thermal analysis (DTA/TGA) shows the similar type of mass loss pattern, however, the amount of mass loss differs in fly ash and quartz powder contained UHP-HFRC.

Recycling industrial wastes such as fly ash from a coal burning heat power plant and shell from an oyster farming were investigated to prevent environment contamination as well as to enhance the value of recycling materials. In this study, the lightweight aggregates and the red bricks were fabricated from fly ashes with other inorganic materials and wastes. The starting materials of the lightweight aggregate were fly ash powder and water glass, and the compacts of these materials were heat treated at $1100^{\circ}C$. The fabricated lightweight aggregates had low bulk density, $0.9-1.2\;g/cm^3$, hence floated on the water and had the strength of 7.0-11.0 MPa and the modulus of 2900-3300 MPa which indicates it has enough strength as the aggregate. Another type of the light weight aggregate was prepared from fly ashes, shell powders and clays. The bulk density, porosity, and compressive strength of these aggregates were $1.19-1.34\;g/cm^3,\;18.3{\sim}56.1%$ and 5-12 MPa, respectively. The addition of a small amount of fly ash powder prevented hydration of the light weight aggregates. The red brick was also fabricated from the fly ash containing materials. It is suitable for the brick facing of a building as it has moderate strength and low water absorption rate.
