Utilizing marble wastewater in cement pastes and mortars for enhanced physico-mechanical and microstructural properties.

This research explored the potential of marble wastewater (MWW) in cement paste and mortar production, addressing water scarcity, sustainable growth, and resource management. It investigated the physico-mechanical properties and microstructure of cement materials incorporated with varying amounts of MWW. In this study, we utilized tap water and MWWfor mortar quality testing, focusing on parameters including setting times, water absorption, and mechanical strength.
