Role of particle size of natural pozzolanic materials of …

 — During crushing of pumice, very fine particles volatilize and disperse into the air next to the grinding machines, then fall to the ground. In addition, less-fine particles fall directly under the machines, forming layers of waste from the crushing process. Quarries are forced to dispose of the waste from the crushing process by transferring it ...
