Foundry sand is generally of two types: Green sand, Chemically bounded sand. Additive in sand depends on type of metal casting. Use of waste foundry sand as full or partial replacement by fine aggregate helps to achieve different properties or behaviour of concrete.

Read MoreIn order to bring a solution to the problem of waste foundry sand (WFS) in the foundry sector and achieve its reuse, geopolymer building material (as a cementless technology) was produced from the WFS for the first time in the literature in this study. The physical and mechanical characteristics of this material were determined. In the first part of the experimental step, the sieve analysis ...

EPA's risk assessment for the beneficial uses of spent foundry sands found that that silica-based spent foundry sands produced by iron, steel and aluminum foundries can be safely reused to save energy, reduce the need to mine virgin materials, and reduce costs for both producers and end users. EPA supports the use of silica-based spent foundry

Read MoreDec 19, 2018 Foundry sand (FS) waste creates a serious solid waste management problem worldwide due to the high volumes produced, necessitating alternatives to landfilling. A possible route is its use in concrete; however, the current consensus is that FS can only be used for modest sand replacements, based mostly on evidence on concrete with clay-bound FS (greensand).
