Description
Summary:Palm Oil Fuel Ash (POFA) is a waste product from oil palm industry. POFA is detected with high silica and alumina, which makes it an excellent binding material similar to cement. This research project aims to produce an alternative patching material known as PROPATCH, which promotes innovative and straightforward technique in patching pavement using green and sustainable material. PROPATCH offers dual reaction that comes from POFA as binder and PET treated by Sulphuric Acid, which acts like fibre. The product is another innovation that resulted from industrial collaboration with United Oil Palm Industries Sdn. Bhd. and it also capable of being a multi-purpose patching material for a solid structure, wiiich benefits industrial construction players and give an excellent impact to sosio- economic.
