Abstract

The pulp and paper industry increases every year in Brazil, providing an important country position in international market due to its production volume. However, because of this increasing, a large volume of wastes is generated. One of them is a lime mud, resulting from the Kraft chemical pulping production process. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the replacement of hydrated lime by lime mud on laying and coating mortars production, in order to verify its feasibility for possible application in civil construction industry. The 100% hydrated lime replacement mortar reached a 28-day compressive strength of 5.84 MPa. Finally, the results obtained in the experimental program showed that the 100% hydrated lime replacement mortar by lime mud meets the normative requirements for multiple-use mortars.
