Abstract :
It is estimated that 60,000 tons solid and 120,000 tons slurry marble waste are produced annually by the 40 processing plants in the Afyonkarahisar Organized Industrial Zone. 45,500 tons solid and 97,500 tons slurry of marble waste are used annually by the Afyon Çimento T.A.Ş, the others used by the unfinished infrastructure plants in the Afyonkarahisar Organized Industrial Zone. Forty per cent of the particles were found to be less than 20 μm, seventy per cent of the particles were found to be less than 100 μm and ninety per cent of the particles were found to be less than 200 μm in diameter. Marble waste contains the chemical compounds CaO, MgO, SiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3, Na2O, TiO2 and P2O5. It can be seen in the chemical analysis of the marble wastes that the highest component is CaO which changes between values of % 49,98 and % 55,93. %90 of the marble wastes is 200 μm while % 70 of them is below 100 μm. The ratio of the marble wastes which are below 20 μm is % 40.
