Abstract
Environment is one of the greatest assets of human kind for its survival but due to pollution and environmental damage from anthropogenic activities, human race has caused greater damage to it. Hence it is need of the hour to transform these pollutants and waste products into environment friendly products to ensure their negative impact is reduced. One of these products from burning of fossil fuels and Kilns is fly ash. The research aimed with developing potential of the fly ash from the Sargodha city brick kilns and then transform it into a sustainable green product i.e. fly ash cement block. With exploration of amount produced from multiple kilns, the waste was collected to form four different compositions of sample blocks which were produced and further tested for compressive strength and water absorption tests. Results showed that 10% fixed cement proportion with 60-70% fly ash delivered a competitive product against the local bricks produced which are neither green nor sustainable. The samples were also taken to the local market of Sargodha city to potentially evaluate the economic value addition. People were willing to use fly ash cement block as it has the capacity to compete with the local available non-green products if produced on commercial large scale.
