  • Abstract:
  • Noise pollution is a type of pollution which is a serious issue of concern. In the entire world, every living thing like human beings, domestic and wildlife animals has a certain frequency of hearing. Also, the constant noise affects the hearing ability and causes severe problems to the health. To address this problem and to replace the sound absorbents which are made of harmful materials causing harm to the environment a solution is tried to be introduced by using agro waste in the bricks. The bricks cast using agro waste absorb the sound and convert it into thermal energy. The specific formulations of the mix ratio are done by mixing all the used agro waste in equal ratios as per calculations with the cement of the same quantity and sand. It was also focused on to replacing the sand with some percentages to find whether the agro waste works as a replacement of sand. The goal of the research paper is the investigate the sound absorption property of brick using agro wastes like rice husk, sugarcane bagasse and coconut shell.
