      More than 15 million tons of aggregates are imported each year to Qatar from neighbouring countries. Large quantities of waste materials (around 20 million tons/year) from excavation waste, demolition rubble and reclaimed ...
    • Recycling of Local Qatar’s Steel Slag and Gravel Deposits in Road Construction 

      Taha, Ramzi; Sirin, Okan; Sadek, Husam ( OMICS International , 2014 , Article)
      Every year, the State of Qatar generates about 400,000 tons of steel slag and another 500,000 tons of gravel as a result of steel manufacturing and washing sand, respectively. The two materials (by-products) are not fully ...
    • Use Of Cement By-Pass Dust In Soil Stabilization 

      Taha, Ramzi; Al-Rawas, Amer; Al-Harthy, Ali; Al-Siyabi, Hilal ( Qatar University , 2001 , Article)
      Cement by-pass dust (CBPD) or cement kiln dust (CKD) is a by-product of the manufacture of Portland cement. It is generated during the calcining process in the kiln. Lime (CaO) constitutes more than 60% of CBPD composition. ...
