Abstract

This sector represents one of India’s oldest and most widely dispersed economic activities. Most of the metal casting processes in this business used a method called sand-casting molding, which resulted in a substantial amount of sand waste. Sand dust that has been reclaimed is produced in the industry as part of the reclamation process. These take place in the cyclone separator and the bag filter. The waste produced due to the sanding process is disposed of at landfills and other disposal sites. The disposal of waste sand dust causes the poisoning of the surrounding environment. As a result, it has developed into an issue for the environment. This paper presents a complete examination of the use of industrial waste as a construction material that is ecologically acceptable. The topic of the inquiry is offered. In place of fly ash, recycled sand dust waste, also known as RSDW, was used to produce fly ash bricks (FABs). Various percentages of RSD waste are used in place of fly ash, including 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100%, respectively. The paper devotes considerable space to analyzing and discussing the results of compressive strength and water absorption testing.
