Abstracts : The amount of solid waste being produced
all over the globe is causing drastic effects on the
environment. The solid waste disposal has been
causing pollution and damages related to it. The
marble mining and production industry creates
masses of solid waste, with no methodical process
for its disposal. Marble slurry is marble fines
suspended in water, generated during the processing
of marble. It constitutes 10% of the total stone
quarried and 5-7% produced during polishing.
Various studies have been conducted on the proper
disposal of the solid waste generated during marble
processing. This study if focused on the use of
marble slurry as partial or complete replacement of
aggregate in cement mortar. It elaborates on the
tests conducted for compressive strength, abrasion
resistance and water absorption in mortar specimen.
