TECHNICAL CONTROL OF SULFATE WASTE MATERIALS AT THE TRANSPO '72 SITE

THIS REPORT IS AN IN DEPTH STUDY OF TECHNICAL ASPECTS OF UTILIZATION OF SULFATE WASTE MATERIALS. IT TREATS THE SUBJECTS OF DESIGN OF PRODUCTS UTILIZING WASTE MATERIALS, DETERMINATIONS OF PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF THE COMBINED WASTE MATERIALS, AND CONTROL OF THE PRODUCTION OF THESE PRODUCTS. THE WASTE MATERIALS USED IN THE DEMONSTRATIONS AT THE TRANSPO '72 SITE INCLUDE WASTES FROM POWER PLANTS, CHEMICAL INDUSTRIES, AND MINING INDUSTRIES. THE REPORT DEMONSTRATES THE USE OF WASTE MATERIALS IN SUCH CONSTRUCTION APPLICATIONS AS ROAD BASE AND SYNTHETIC AGGREGATE COMPOSITIONS. THE RESULTS CLEARLY INDICATE THE COMPETITIVE NATURE OF THE PRODUCTS MADE FROM INDUSTRIAL WASTES AS COMPARED WITH THE CONVENTIONAL CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS. /FHWA/
