Aceite residual automotriz como aditivo en mezclas de hormigón: Si es factible su uso

ABSTRACT Finding a use for Automotive Residual Oil (ARO) is preponderant for society, since one liter of this liquid is capable of contaminating one million liters of drinking water, without counting the damages to agricultural soils and groundwater. The purpose of this work is to study the physical and mechanical properties of concrete by incorporating ARA in dosages between 0.10% and 0.80% by weight of cement. To achieve this goal, settlements of fresh mixtures and resistances of hardened concrete were obtained for different dosages of ARO. From the resistances obtained after 28 days, a poly...
