Abstract- In the current period, researchers and engineers are employing various discarded and non-functional items. These waste materials are derived from agricultural or industrial sources. Rice husk ash, sludge, and fly ash are waste elements that can be added to concrete mix as a supplementary material to replace some of the cement. The inclusion of these waste elements improved the mechanical and physical characteristics of the concrete mixture. Currently, researchers are increasingly focusing on Sugarcane bagasse ash due to its fine texture and its ability to enhance setting qualities, strength properties, and corrosion
resistance. India’s sugarcane production stands at approximately 341.20 MMT (million metric tonnes), placing it in the second position globally, right after Brazil. Sugarcane peel is the residual byproduct remaining after the sugar production process. The author of this review study examined multiple research studies that focused on the applications of bagasse ash in concrete mixtures. Bagasse ash improved the tensile strength, compressive strength, flexural strength, durability, and resistance to chloride ion penetration.

Keywords: Bagasse ash, compressive strength, flexural strength and concrete mix
