HESCCCC 14 Poster Design Detail

a) Title: _______________________________
[Suggestion:- Sustainable sewerage concrete, Sewerage Green Concrete (SGC),
etc ]
b) Our People:
- Dr. Lau Tze Liang (Advisor) Senior Lecturer, School of Civil Engineering USM
- Chong Kim Wee
- Lau Pi Hung
- Liew Kok Kei
Student,
- Vincent Soh Hang Guat
School of
Design idea: According to Renxins idea.
c) Concretes constituents:
- Silica Fume
- Treated Sewage sludge grain
- Crushed coarse aggregates/ stone
- Uncrushed fine aggregates (Sand)
- Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC)
- Superplasticizer
- Water
Design idea: Real constituents are to be packed and presented.
d) Methodology:
i)
Treat the raw sewage sludge obtained from sewage treatment plant with
furnace at temperature 600 0C and duration of one hour (Excluding the time of
rise of temperature from room temperature to the stated temperature).
ii)
Treated sewage sludge is allowed to cool down to room temperature.
Sewage sludge is retreated in oven by temperature of 120oC and duration one hour
once the treated sludge has attained room temperature.
iii)
Final sewage sludge is hammered into manageable pieces and sieved to a
size of __________ through sieve analysis to remove the unmanageable sizes and
impurities associated with the sludge.
iv)
Raw sand is then sieved to a size of ________ before mixing to remove
the sand of larger sizes and other impurities.
v)
All constituents are weighted and prepared according to the designed
proportion.
vi)
All materials are dry-mixed prior to the insertion of mixing water.
vii)
Optimum amount of superplasticizer is poured into the mixing water.

viii) The constituents are wet-mixed until the mix has mingled evenly and
achieved the desirable workability.
ix)
Concrete mix is poured into mould (100 x 100 x 100) and compacted with
tamper ( 20 tamps per layer and 3 layers are required per cube).
x)
Concrete cube (with mould) is allowed for air-curing as per the instruction
of the organization team.
Design idea: Flowchart with printed procedures or hand sketching.

e) Proposed Mix Design:

f) Remarkable Material/ Performance (If any Pending for the upcoming result):
i) Treat sewage sludge grains
Example: (Source from Wikipedia)
Sludge refers to the residual, semi-solid material left from industrial waste water,
or sewage treatment processes. It can also refer to the settled suspension obtained from
conventional drinking water treatment, and numerous other industrial processes. The term
is also sometimes used as a generic term for solids separated from suspension in a liquid;
this 'soupy' material usually contains significant quantities of 'interstitial' water (between
the solid particles).

In the industrialized world, cities in particular have had a difficult time dealing with
sewage waste. In 1992, a United States ban on ocean dumping of human sewage sludge
went into effect, leaving cities the expensive option of having to dispose sewage waste in
landfills in most land reclamation activities.
