RESULTS AND
CONCLUSION
The methodology of the project includes literature collection and the necessary
documents supporting the chosen technologies. By arriving to a conclusion from
the literature, the materials required for the experimental work are to be collected.
The materials should be checked for their originality. After the necessary
materials are collected and tested, the concrete is casted, cured and checked for
its strength.
The required number of specimens (cubes and wall panels) are casted with
the specified material proportions. The casted specimens are cured under normal
curing conditions. The cured specimens are tested for their respective
compressive strengths. Now Amines were introduced into the zeolite prepared by
wet impregnation. In a typical preparation of 40 (wt. %) modifier 13.3 (g) amines
were dissolved in methanol. Then at least modified Zeolite was dried at 150°C
for 3 hrs. After impregnation with TEPA amine solution. Finally, the mixture was
dried by vacuum oven at 105°C for 3 hrs. Water vapor improves CO2 adsorption
on the amine functional groups which increases CO2 adsorption capacity.
These treated Zeolite are partially replaced with that of cement and fine
aggregate and 1:3 ratio mortar is prepared and are to be plastered on the brick
wall panels and concrete surfaces. Then the samples are kept inside a closed
chamber and CO2 rich gas is allowed to pass through and reduction in amount is
found by testing the samples.
