Abstract
The Central Building Research Institute Roorkee (V.P.) India
has developed a lime sludge mortar made from by-products of
sugar mills, paper mills and rice mills.
Basically this type of mortar is made from lime sludge
(sugar - and paper mills) and rice husk (rice mills).
Because of its potential advantages also for Kenya the HRDU
has investigated the availability of the basic materialso
This preliminary investigations showed that limesludge is not
available as a waste material, while rice husk is available
in abundance in some locations.
