This research study is for the evaluation of the effect of the burning temperature on the chemical and microstructural properties of Sugarcane Bagasse Ash. The Sugarcane Bagasse Ash (SCBA) is a byproduct of sugarcane which is dumped without proper handling and causing environmental issues because of the burning on dump site and loss of the area due to dumping in the commodity. The current research study is conducted for burning of SCBA on different temperatures and duration for finding the optimum burning temperature and duration of burning. The chemical and microstructural properties of SCBA evaluated at burning temperatures of 800°C for the duration of 01 hour, at temperature of 600° for the duration of 03 and 06 hours by conducting the tests of FTIR, XRD and XRF on the samples. The test results show that the burning temperatures of 800°C for the duration of 1 hour contains amorphous silica and also fulfilling the requirement of pozzolanic material (Composition of Silica, alumina and iron oxide is greater than 70%) as compared to other ash samples of sugarcane bagasse.
