Abstract: In the manufacturing industry among the primary producers of carbon dioxide, cement industry plays one of the important role. Hence if we reduce the amount of usage of cement in concrete preparation, it will be helpful for a healthy environment. Upon consider the environmental pollution, in the concrete preparation mineral admixtures are used as a partial substitute for cement. Here in this paper, ultra-fine ceramic powder is using as a mineral admixture which are procured from used or broken tiles in 5%, 10% and 15% as level of replacement and also carbon black powder from rubber industry in 1% both by weight of water to made a high strength concrete of M50 grade Concrete. In severe environments like industrial and marine environments, a concrete with high strength may not perform because they are characterized by high chloride content, sulphate content or combination of both. Hence in order to provide such an environment in the laboratory, the specimens are subjected for curing in H2SO4 acid (industrial) and NaCl base (marine). To find the performance of the use of ceramic powder, black carbon powder, compressibility strength and split tensile strength, flexural strength, porosity, corrosion resistance tests are performed.
