Microwave incinerated rice husk ash (MIRHA) and used engine oil (UEO): Towards sustainable concrete production
Rice is a primary source of food for billions of people and covers 1% of the earth's surface. On average 20% of the rice paddy is husk, giving an annual total production of 120 million tones. Nowadays, there are two common methods used to dispose the rice husk which is either it is being dump o...
