Abstract
The building industry faces the difficulty of achieving a balance between development and environmental accountability. This study investigates the viability of using bio-blocks made from mussel shells (Perna Viridis) and banana fibers (Musa Paradisiaca Linn) as an environmentally friendly substitute for conventional construction materials. Mussel shells possess properties of strength, rigidity, and fire retardance, whilst banana fibers provide thermal insulation and are derived from the byproduct of banana farming. The study explores techniques for enhancing the bio-block composition and manufacturing process to get specific mechanical characteristics, density, and porosity. The essay examines the extended resilience, environmental friendliness, and possible uses in the construction of these bio-blocks. Ultimately, it tackles obstacles pertaining to economic competitiveness and puts forth methods for broader implementation in the construction sector. By advocating for responsible waste management and minimizing the environmental impact, the utilization of bio-blocks composed of mussel shells and banana fibers is a promising strategy for achieving a more sustainable future in the field of building.
