Abstract:
Among several waste reduction strategies, one that is gaining momentum is the development of construction materials that reuses a number of solid wastes. The ‘bottle brick’ is one such invention. Waste Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) bottles packed with other dry solid wastes or sand and earth has been successfully used in a number of countries around the world. This study looked into the strength properties of waste PET bottles filled with fine sand. Five different sizes (250, 500, 1250, 1500 and 2000ml) of waste PET bottle bricks were tested for compressive strength and the largest bricks gave a compressive strength of 17.44MPa. The 1000ml bottle brick filled cubes with 9 and 12 bottles were prepared and tested. The 9 bottle brick filled cubes gave a compressive strength of 35MPa and the 12 bottle bricks filled cubes gave a compressive strength of 33.7MPa. These bottle brick filled cylinders exhibited double the compressive strength of conventional concrete cylinders.Progressive Agriculture 27 (3): 362-368, 2016

Abstract:
This study aims to identify the potential of gold mining waste for CO2 sequestration and its utilization for carbon storage in cementitious material. Samples of mine waste were identified from a gold mine for mineralogical and chemical composition analysis using X-ray diffractogram and scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray. Mine waste was utilized in a brick-making process as supplementary cementitious material and as an agent for CO2 capture and storage in bricks. Carbonation curing was incorporated in brick fabrication to estimate CO2 uptake of the brick product. Results indicated that the mine wastes were composed of silicate minerals essential for mineral carbonation such as muscovite and illite (major) and chlorite-serpentine, aerinite, albite and stilpnomelane (moderate/minor phases). The mine wastes were identified as belonging to the highly pozzolanic category, which has a great role in improving the strength properties of brick products. Carbonated minerals served as an additional binder that increased the strength of the product. CO2 uptake of the product was between 0.24% and 0.57% for bricks containing 40–60% of gold mine waste, corresponding to 7.2–17.1 g CO2/brick. Greater performance in terms of compressive strength and water adsorption was observed for bricks with 3 h carbonation curing. The carbonation product was evidenced by strong peaks of calcite and reduced peaks for calcium hydroxide from XRD analysis and was supported by a densified and crystalline microstructure of materials. It has been demonstrated that gold mine waste is a potential feedstock for mineral carbonation, and its utilization for permanent carbon storage in brick making is in line with the concept of CCUS for environmental sustainability.

Abstract:
This research reports the effects of rice husk ash and brick waste on the properties of construction brick. Clay is the raw material for producing brick. Both rice husk ash and brick waste are waste materials which can be added to clay to produce better quality brick with lower cost. Bricks of size 77mm x 38mm x 26mm were produced by stiff mud process. Three different sized rice husk ash and brick waste were used in different amounts (5%, 10%, 15%, and 20% by volume) as a partial replacement of clay while preparing the bricks. Some properties like drying and firing shrinkage, bulk density, and cold crushing strength were measured. There was decrease in drying and firing shrinkage, slight reduction in bulk density and decrease in cold crushing strength with increasing the rice husk ash and brick waste particle percentages.

Abstract:
The study aims to develop specific lightweight brick units using locally available clay of traditional burned brick units publically used in the south of Iraq using solid wastes. Throughout the study, chemically inaction and difficult to recycling wastes was considered, they were classified into Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) and hardwood solid waste which is used to upgrade lightweight characteristic and maintenance required bricks' characteristics and to be introduced as a smart technical way to recycling solid waste. Solid waste is introduced as additive materials and firing fuel enhanced coefficient in the concept of its energy recovery useful in the production process. An experimental program was considered including five main series of samples, tested and analyzed in the scope of clay bricks units and in the scope of lightweight constructional related to aerated wall construction units. The verified compressive strengths and other properties of tested specimens were found to confirm bricks class C except for specimens of hardwood of 10% although it assigns less dry density (1.18 g/cm3). In general, as light weight bricks, the characteristics of developed units was found to be within the permitted limits of ASTM C 1389.

Abstract:
The most basic and primary building material for construction of houses is the conventional brick. The rapid growth in today’s construction industry has obliged the civil engineers in searching for more efficient and durable alternatives far beyond the limitations of the conventional brick production [1-2]. A number of studies have been made and serious steps have been taken in manufacturing of bricks from several waste materials. However, the traditional mean of bricks production which has brought hazardous impacts to the context has not yet been changed or replaced by more efficient and sustainable one [3], [4]. Most of the researches went through enhancing the clay brick quality and properties by mixing the clay with various recycled wastes as foundry sand, granite sawing waste, harbour sediments, perlite, sugarcane, baggase ash, clay waste and fine waste of boron, sewage sludge, waste glass from structural wall and other different wastes. Compile this state of the art work of manufacturing bricks in the past and the current trend in the bricks industry with respect to the raw materials, ways of manufacturing and the out- comings.This project presents an experimental study on the utilization of waste materials which replaces clay with (Plastic covers, Ceramic Powder, Egg Shell Powder, GGBS, Silica Fume, Rice Husk Ash and Lime Powder) and Fine Aggregate with (Recycled glass, Dry Grass, Dead Leaves, Tree barks powder, Sugar cane powder, crumbed rubber) to produce eco-friendly Bricks. This project is an attempt to fill the gap of the past studies and suggest more sustainable and sophisticated methods of brick manufacturing in the future. 40 percent replacement of fine aggregate with crumbled rubber and dry grass in mortar bricks have given encouraging results, also the replacement of cement by egg shell powder at 20% has given a considerable result

Abstract:
Pollution and accumulation of waste is one of the major problems that the present world faces. Of the waste materials the non-degradable plastic waste is the major issue. Among the plastic wastes, Styrofoam wastes share the lion's share. Styrofoam wastes are non-degradable also possess the threat of poisonous gas emission when burnt the main challenge is to recycle without the emission of poisonous gases. In this thought we come to the idea of Styrofoam bricks. The Styrofoam brick mainly consists of Styrofoam, acetone and sand. Styrofoam bricks can be manufactured through 4 kinds of process, dissolution of Styrofoam in acetone, mixing with sand, moulding and drying. Why we are preparing this brick is to get high strength and reduced weight also it is not brittle like the ordinary bricks. This will have good load bearing capacity. It can be used to construct partition wall, pavement, roofing etc. Key Words: Polystyrene Foam; Lightweight Bricks; Thermal Insulation; Pore-Forming.

Abstract:
The use of waste clay bricks—which are abundant in the Niger Delta Region of Nigeria – as supplementary cementitious material, would enable the construction industry utilize thousands of tons of brick blocks that would have ended up as waste or landfill materials. This paper establishes the pozzolanic properties of these waste clay bricks in terms of strength and workability. Waste clay brick powders are introduced as partial replacement for cement in this research. All tests were done in accordance with relevant British Standards. It was observed that waste clay brick, as an admixture, increases the workability and consistency of fresh concrete. Also, an 11 percent increase in compressive strength was observed with a 10 percent partial replacement of cement with waste clay brick powders. An equation is developed to capture the marginal increase in compressive strength of concrete produced with waste clay bricks, even after 28 days, for a 10% partial replacement of cement.

Abstract:
Denser population in a city leads to a serious noise pollution problem. In order to control the ambient noise effectively, a sound insulation brick is desired. However, conventional bricks have poor sound barrier system and is made from unsustainable materials that consume high energy. Hence, this paper introduces a feasibility study on rock wool waste utilisation in a double-layer concrete brick (a combination of aerated concrete and solid concrete) as a potential technique to improve the sound barrier system in brick walls. Currently, rock wool waste is one of the synthetic wastes, which are massively dumped into the landfill by the industry or building demolition castoffs every year. However, rock wool waste has the potential to be recycled and reused as a sound insulation material because it still has the fibrous structural characteristic. Aerated concrete is generally known as an acoustic material; hence, this paper reviews on the implementation of rock wool waste in the aerated concrete layer to improve noise absorption performance. The optimum sound absorption and the thickness of aerated concrete were subsequently integrated with the solid media to transmit sound and indirectly improve the overall brick strength to form a double-layer concrete brick and facilitate the invention of sustainable bricks.

Abstract:
Aims: Study the performance of self-compacting mortar (SCM) using waste ground brick as cement replacement material. Background: Large amounts of brick waste are produced in brick manufacturing plants and construction and demolition sites. The use of these bricks as partial substitution to natural aggregates or after crushing as fines for partial cement substitution could contribute to reduce the problem of waste storage and environmental pollution as well as in the conservation of natural resources. Objective: The objective of this paper is to study the effect of adding waste ground brick on the performance of SCM at the fresh and hardened state. Methods: It is an experimental investigation where mortar specimens where cement was partially substituted by crushed recycled bricks fines recovered from a brick plant. The level of substitution was either 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% 20% and 25% by weight of cement. Workability was measured by slump flow and flow time by V-funnel test. Compressive strength and water absorption by capillary were measured on 40x40x160 mm3 prismatic specimens. Results: The experimental results show that self-compacting mortar can be obtained up to 25% of cement substitution by brick powders. The compressive strength was improved at long term for up to 15% cement substitution by brick powder. The sorptivity coefficient is increased by incorporation of brick waste powder. Conclusion: The substitution of cement by waste ground brick powder up to 15% of waste brick powder has little influence on the rheological parameters of self-compacting mortar and the compressive strength is increased at the long term. Further investigations are underway to study the shrinkage, the long term durability and the pore size distribution by mercury porosimetry.

Abstract:
The optimization of the production of fired clay brick is essential for the sustainability of the clay brick industry. While there exist areas for improvement of these bricks’ properties when they are used in severe climates, concerns — including nonrenewable resource depletion, increasing energy costs, and waste management — have become increasingly important in Canadian and global industries. One strategy to address these concerns is to use waste additives as fluxing agents in bricks. Use of these additives can decrease the dependency of the industry on nonrenewable resources and can improve brick strength and durability. The effect nonrecycled waste glass additives have on fired brick durability and mechanical and transport properties was investigated in this study. The variables studied were waste glass particle size and percentage added by mass. Microstructure was investigated using mercury intrusion porosimetry to determine the effect on pore structure. The results yielded an optimal percentage addition of waste glass.

Abstract:
The background to this research program was the need to investigate novel technologies and their application to fired ceramic processes that would facilitate the return to profitability for a small size brick maker. The company, Gasser Brick Company. Ziegel Gasser Mattoni GmbH S.r.l., in Natz-Schabs (Naz-Sciaves) in the north of Italy, is a relatively small manufacturer producing < 20,000 metric tons of brick per year. In this thesis the economic, environmental and social advantages consequent to a complete review of the approach to the company’s manufacture of cored clay bricks are discussed, including energy saving measures and the use of novel fuel and clay body supplements. A number of wide ranging novel technical modifications to the production processes of the Gasser Brick company have been tested, evaluated, reviewed, compared, and critically evaluated. The approach includes the utilization of a substantial percentage of various wastes as part-substitution of, or as an addition to, quarried raw materials and also the use of renewable and alternative fuels as a substitute for fossil fuels. A number of these modifications have resulted in beneficial changes to the product and the efficiency of the production process and considerably reduced the environmental footprint of the operation. Process modifications and the technological improvements to production equipment are explained and discussed along with detailed information about the measures that enabled the Gasser Brick company to return the profitability. The modifications resulted in a substantial increase of income. Revenues from waste gate fees are about 30% of the total turnover of the company. Costs for thermal energy dropped by 2/3: A ton of boiler oil commanded a price of 220 - 245 €/ton versus the around 80 €/ton of rendering fat.

The volume of solid waste produced is increasing disorderly and harmful to nature, since they are not given him proper purposes. As waste that can be used in the manufacture of concrete bricks is the waste tire rubber, which is a major cause of environmental problems, and the cementitious waste generated in concrete plants, called Concrete Sludge Waste (CSW). The overall objective of this study will then be to determine a concrete trait for brick production, containing the highest percentages of concrete sludge waste and tire rubber granulate together. To do so, the applicability of the residues was analyzed separately in Studies 1 and 2, and later jointly in Study 3, that the Central Composite Delineation of Rotational was used as experimental planning and the data evaluated through Response Surface Methodology, and Study 4, being the waste tire rubber granulate replacing the aggregate and the Concrete Sludge Waste in its dry state (CSW-S) to the cement. The physical-chemical characterization of the aggregates and the test of resistance to compression and water absorption of the bricks were performed. The results showed that it is feasible to use CSW-S and waste tire rubber granulate, but the higher the rubber percentage, the lower the compressive strength and the higher the water absorption, the rubber substitution limit is dependent on the aggregate used and the molding conditions, as well as the trace used. However, the CSW-S did not present significant effects when compared to those of the rubber, thus, replacements of higher percentages could be made. There is then an optimal trace with about 4% rubber aggregate substitution and approximately 15% LRC-S, replacing the cement. However, it can be affirmed that the use of concrete bricks with residue for sealing is technically feasible, in order to reduce the volume of discarded waste, obtain a cheaper product and still meet the criteria required by the standards.
O volume de resíduos sólidos produzido vem aumentando de modo desordenado e prejudicial à natureza, uma vez que não são dados a ele fins adequados. Como resíduos passíveis de se utilizar na fabricação de tijolos de concreto se tem a borracha de pneus, que é um grande causador de problemas ambientais, e o resíduo cimentício gerado em usinas de concreto, denominado de Lama Residual do Concreto (LRC). O objetivo geral deste estudo será, então, determinar um traço de concreto para produção de tijolos, que contenha maiores porcentagens de resíduos de usinas de concreto e de borracha de pneu, conjuntamente. Para tanto, foram analisadas a aplicabilidade dos resíduos separadamente, nos Estudos 1 e 2, e posteriormente de forma conjunta no Estudo 3, que foi utilizado o Delineamento Composto Central Rotacional como planejamento experimental e os dados avaliados via Metodologia de Superfície de Resposta, e Estudo 4, sendo o granulado de borracha em substituição ao agregado e a Lama Residual do Concreto em seu estado seco (LRC-S) ao cimento. Foram realizadas a caracterização físico-química dos agregados e ensaio de resistência à compressão e absorção de água dos tijolos. Os resultados mostraram que é viável se utilizar a LRC-S e o granulado de borracha de pneu, porém quanto maior a porcentagem de borracha, menor será a resistência à compressão e maior será a absorção de água, sendo que o limite de substituição da borracha é dependente do agregado empregado e das condições de moldagem, bem como do traço utilizado. Já a LRC-S não apresentou efeitos significativos se comparados com aqueles da borracha, podendo ser feitas, assim, substituições de maiores porcentagens. Tem-se, então, um traço ótimo com cerca de 4% de substituição do agregado por borracha e com aproximadamente 15% de LRC-S, em substituição ao cimento. Contudo, pode se afirmar que a utilização de tijolos de concreto com resíduo para vedação é viável tecnicamente, de forma a diminuir o volume de resíduos descartados, obter um produto mais barato e ainda atender aos critérios exigidos pelas normas.

Abstract:
Steel industries consume refractory materials on a large scale. High temperature resistant refractory materials are essential for linings of the steelmaking vessels, to protect them from corrosive environments, high temperatures, molten steels and slags during transportation and steelmaking operations. Furthermore, with the increasing demand in steel production the usage of refractory materials has substantially increased, resulting in an increasing demand for refractory raw materials. However, with the hike in prices and abundancy for raw materials there is a need for recycling and reusing of spent refractory materials, which are otherwise sent to landfill. Nowadays the environmental as well as economic aspect regarding the recycling of spent refractories are of interest for the steel industries for achieving a solution towards zero waste. Several projects have been launched to investigate and generate new ideas with different ways to recycle refractory materials, but there is much more research and planning that needs to be done in order to find a large scale solution towards achieving zero waste. One of the simplest solutions to avoid landfilling of spent refractory is to introduce and manage a good sorting of the breakout scrap refractory, which can later be recycled or reused depending on their condition. The thesis work was carried out in collaboration of KTH – The Royal Institute of Technology/ Stockholm/ Sweden and Jernkontoret – The Swedish Steelmaking Association / Stockholm / Sweden. The work includes a collection of information regarding the current refractory waste management situation within some of the Swedish steel producers as Ovako AB, Uddeholm AB and SSAB. The information were collected on the basis of their refractory usage and practises. The thesis as well provides some suggestions for recycling and reusing of spent refractory waste materials collected from literature. Additionally some experimental work was carried out on whether an MgO-C refractory brick made of recycled materials can perform similarly against slag as a brick made from virgin materials. Experimental corrosion trials with one industrial slag composition were carried out using a hot-finger test apparatus for bricks with different amounts of recycling content in comparison to a brick made of virgin materials. After experiments, the samples were analysed using a Light Optical Microscope (LOM). A similar performance of all bricks against the slag composition was observed. Additional laboratory tests with different slag compositions, holding times and stirring rates are required to reach more profound conclusions. Industrial trials are essential with bricks containing recycled raw materials to reach a final performance status.
Stålindustrin konsumerar eldfasta material i stor skala. Högtemperatur resistenta eldfasta material är nödvändiga för att fodra skänkugnen, för att skydda den från frätande miljöer, höga temperaturer av smält stål och slagg, samt transport och blandning av smält stål under ståltillverkning. Vidare har användningen av eldfasta material ökat avsevärt med den ökande efterfrågan inom stålproduktion, vilket har resulterat i en ökande efterfrågan på eldfasta råvaror. Men i och med prishöjningen och avhållsamheten för råvaror behövs en idé om återvinning och återanvändning av eldfasta material som annars skickas till deponi. Numera är den miljömässiga och ekonomiska aspekten av återvinning av förbrukade eldfasta ämnen av intresse för stålindustrin för att kunna nå en lösning mot zero waste. Flera projekt har påbörjats för att undersöka och generera nya idéer med olika sätt att återvinna eldfasta material, men det finns mycket mer forskning och planering som behöver göras för att hitta en storskalig lösning mot netto noll avfall. En av de enklaste lösningarna för att undvika deponering av använt eldfast material är att införa och hantera en bra sortering av använt eldfast avfall, som senare kan återvinnas eller återanvändas beroende på dess tillstånd. Avhandlingsarbetet utfördes i samarbete med KTH – Kungliga tekniska högskolan / Stockholm / Sverige och Jernkontoret – Svenska stålföreningen / Stockholm / Sverige. Informationen samlades in angående användning och praxis av eldfasta material. Avhandlingen innehåller också några förslag för återvinning och återanvändning av använt eldfast avfall som samlats in från litteraturen. Dessutom utfördes experiment för huruvida en eldfast infodring av återvunnen MgO-C kan motstå reaktioner mot slagg som en infodring tillverkad av ny utvunna råvaror. Experimentella korrosionsförsök med en industriell slaggkomposition utfördes av en ugn designad för hot finger test för eldfasta material gjorda av olika mängd återvunnet material samt inget återvunnet material alls. Efter experimenten analyserades proverna med ett ljusoptiskt mikroskop (LOM). En liknande prestanda för alla tegelstenar mot slaggkompositionen observerades. Ytterligare laboratorietester med olika slaggkompositioner, hålltider och omrörningshastigheter krävs för att nå en djupare slutsats. Industriella försök är väsentliga med eldfast tegel som innehåller återvunna råvaror för att kunna nå en slutlig prestandastatus.

Currently we have been sought new constructive solutions involving environmental sustainability through the reduction / elimination of waste of raw materials and final products. The reduction of waste has been granted by the rational use of materials and various forms of reuse, for both are studied and developed technologies capable of absorbing this waste. Under the basic sanitation is highlighted waste generated in water treatment plants during the process of purifying plants of water intended for human consumption. This residue is commonly called sludge. For environmental issues, frequent studies point to the incorporation of this waste in construction materials such as conventional bricks and soil cement. Laboratory analyzes were: Fluorescence Xray (XRF) , Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) , Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), Particle size , Plasticity Index and resistance to simple compression. This the following study aims to evaluate the incorporation of the waste generated in the Water Treatment Plant - Gramame in soil-cement bricks type. The concreteness of research leads to consideration of the incorporation of the waste generated in the Water Treatment Plant - Gramame in low percentages do not affect the strength of soil-cement bricks.

A redução dos desperdícios vem sendo conferida pelo uso racional dos materiais e as diversas formas de reutilização, para tanto são estudadas e desenvolvidas tecnologias capazes de absorver estes resíduos. No âmbito do saneamento básico é destacado o resíduo gerado nas Estações de Tratamento de Água durante o processo de potabilização das águas destinadas para o consumo humano. Comumente este resíduo é chamado de lodo. Para as questões ambientais, estudos frequentes apontam para a incorporação deste resíduo em materiais de construção civil tais como tijolos convencionais e solo-cimento. Desta forma, o seguinte trabalho visa avaliar a incorporação do resíduo gerado na Estação de Tratamento de Água – Gramame em tijolos do tipo solo-cimento. Para que os objetivos pudessem ser alcançados foram determinadas as análises laboratoriais de: Fluorescência de Raio-X (FRX), Demanda Química de Oxigênio (DQO), Demanda Bioquímica de Oxigênio (DBO), Granulometria, Índice de Plasticidade e Resistência a Compressão Simples. A concretude da pesquisa leva a conclusão de que a incorporação do resíduo gerado na Estação de Tratamento de Água – Gramame em baixas porcentagens não prejudica a resistência dos tijolos solo-cimento. Sendo este resultado associado a uma considerável concentração de Matéria Orgânica.

The search for sustainable, economic, social and technological development has intensified the study of the use of recycled materials or wastes in order to minimize environmental impacts and also to reduce production costs. In this sense this work aims to develop a methodology for the production of mortars optimized from the point of view of properties and cost, from particulate clay bricks waste (CBW) of red ceramic, as partial replacement of Portland cement. The first part of the study deals with the characterization of the as-prepared ceramic clay masses (CCM) and CBWs from four industries of the northern region of Santa Catarina: Ceramic A and B (Joinville/SC), Ceramic C (Garuva/SC) and Ceramic D (São Bento do Sul/SC). The characterization of ceramic clay masses included XRD, XRF, FTIR, DSC and SEM analyses. The characterization of CBW also included techniques to determine the pozzolanic activity, particle size, surface area (B.E.T.) and density. The consumption of calcium hydroxide (CH) of the cement paste formed with CBW was also measured. After analyzing the characteristics of the CCMs and CBWs it was possible to determine which of the researched sources has the greatest potential for use as a substitute for Portland cement. The results indicated that the CBW from industry B (CBW-B) has greater potential to react with CH, followed by CBWs from industries A, C, and D. Fractional factorial design techniques for the design and analysis of experiments were used to evaluate the performance of each CBW in properties such as consistency and compressive strength (CS) of mortars and determine the influence of these three factors on properties: CBW content in replacement of cement (10, 25 and 40% by weight), water-cement ratios (W/C of 2.50, 2.85 and 3.2) and fineness of the CBW (125, 75 and 45 μm). It could be concluded that the CBW-B had the best performance to compressive strength (4.28 MPa) starting from a consistency index of about 260 mm. This result was obtained for a 14 replacement of 15% of cement by CBW-B, and a W/C of 2.5 (75 μm fineness). It was also possible to identify mixtures with minimized financial costs through numerical optimization. To give sequence to work, the CBW-A was chosen (since it presents results comparable to those of the CBW-B, because the industry A generates the largest amount of waste, and because it leads to a larger usage of waste, which is also interesting from the environmental point of view) to a series of other tests, to evaluate the effect of CBW-A on properties such as: consistency; setting time; water retention; porosity and water absorption; water absorption by capillarity; compressive strength at 28 and 90 days (CS28 and CS90); resistance to sodium chloride and sulfate; natural carbonation and tensile bonding strength. Unlike the factorial design, in the mixtures in this next research stage only the CBW-A content was varied (0, 10, 25 and 40% by weight).The W/C and CBW fineness factors were kept constant. The use of the CBW-A revealed positive effects on several physical properties such as increased water retention, increased CS28 and CS90, and decreased porosity and water absorption. However, it had a negative effect on the durability of the mortars (attack by sulfates), tensile bonding strength and setting time, but not so far as to make it impossible to use. The microstructures of mortars and pastes were also analyzed by SEM images and EDX. The mortars containing CBW-A showed a denser cement matrix due to CH consumption and additional formation of calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H), evidencing the pozzolanic effect of the waste. Thus, the methodology followed in this work, aimed at identifying optimized mortars containing brick waste, in terms of cost and properties, provided the criteria for the selection of waste and its effects on the properties studied, from the origin to the final product.
A busca pelo desenvolvimento sustentável, econômico, social e tecnológico tem intensificado o estudo da utilização de materiais reciclados ou rejeitos na tentativa de minimizar impactos ambientais e também de reduzir custos de produção. Neste sentido este trabalho tem o objetivo de desenvolver uma metodologia para a produção de argamassas otimizadas, do ponto de vista das propriedades e custo, a partir de rejeitos particulados de tijolos (RPT) de cerâmica vermelha, em substituição parcial ao cimento Portland. A primeira parte do estudo trata da caracterização das massas cerâmicas argilosas in natura (MCA) e dos RPTs de quatro empresas da região norte de Santa Catarina: Cerâmica A e B (Joinville/SC), Cerâmica C (Garuva/SC) e Cerâmica D (São Bento do Sul/SC). A caracterização das massas cerâmicas argilosas in natura foi realizada através das técnicas de DRX, FRX, FTIR, DSC e MEV. Na caracterização dos RPTs utilizaram-se ainda técnicas para determinação da atividade pozolânica, granulometria, área superficial (B.E.T.) e massa específica. O consumo de hidróxido de cálcio (CH) da pasta cimentícia formada com RPTs também foi medido. Após a análise das características das massas cerâmicas argilosas in natura e dos RPTs foi possível determinar qual das fontes pesquisadas de rejeito possui o maior potencial para uso como substituto ao cimento Portland. Os resultados indicaram que o RPT da empresa B (RPT-B) possui maior potencial para reatividade com o CH, seguido pelos RPTs das empresas A, C, e D. Foram utilizadas técnicas de planejamento fatorial fracionado para o projeto e análise dos experimentos para medir o desempenho de cada RPT em propriedades como resistência à compressão (RC) e consistência de argamassas, visando avaliar a influência de três fatores nessas propriedades: teor de RPT em substituição ao cimento (10, 25 e 40 %, em massa), relações água-cimento (W/C, de 2,50, 2,85 e 3,2), e finura do RPT (125, 75 e 45 μm). Pôde-se concluir que o RPT-B obteve o melhor desempenho para resistência à compressão (4,28 MPa) considerando um índice de consistência de cerca de 260 mm. Esse resultado foi encontrado para uma substituição de 15% de 12 cimento por RPT-B, e para um fator W/C de 2,5 (finura de 75 μm). Foi possível também identificar misturas com custo financeiro minimizado a partir de otimização numérica. Para dar sequência ao trabalho, foi escolhido o RPT-A (por apresentar resultados comparáveis com os do RPT-B, porque a empresa A gera a maior quantidade de rejeitos, e porque a sua utilização requer um maior consumo de rejeito, o que também é interessante do ponto de vista ambiental) para uma série de outros ensaios, visando avaliar o efeito do RPT-A em várias propriedades, tais como: consistência; tempo de pega; retenção de água; porosidade aparente e absorção de água; absorção de água por capilaridade; resistência à compressão aos 28 e 90 dias (RC28 e RC90); resistência ao cloreto e ao sulfato de sódio; carbonatação natural e resistência de aderência à tração. Diferentemente das misturas do projeto fatorial, as misturas desta outra fase da pesquisa tiveram apenas o teor de RPT-A variado (0, 10, 25 e 40 %, em massa). Os fatores W/C e finura do RPT permaneceram fixos. O uso do RPT-A revelou efeitos positivos sobre várias propriedades físicas como o aumento da retenção de água, aumento da RC28 e RC90, diminuição da porosidade e da absorção de água. Entretanto, causou um efeito negativo na durabilidade das argamassas (ataque por sulfatos), na aderência e no tempo de pega, mas não ao ponto de inviabilizar o seu uso. As microestruturas das argamassas e pastas também foram analisadas através de imagens MEV e EDS. As argamassas contendo RPT-A apresentaram uma matriz cimentícia mais densa devido ao consumo de CH e a evidenciando o efeito pozolânico do rejeito. Assim, a metodologia desenvolvida neste trabalho, visando a obtenção de argamassas contento rejeitos de tijolos, otimizadas em termos de propriedades e custo, forneceu os critérios para a seleção dos rejeitos e seus efeitos nas propriedades estudadas, desde a origem até o produto final.

Portland cement is a material used in large scale in Brazil and worldwide. However, its manufacturing process is attached to impacting environmental problems. Thus, the use of recyclable materials with pozzolanic characteristics has been studied to partially replace cement in applications such as mortars and concretes. Therefore, this work aims to study the effect of partial replacement of Portland cement with clay brick waste (CBW) on properties of lime-cement mortars (cement and hydrated lime) for building applications. A statistical study using a fractional factorial design 33-1 considered three factors and three levels for each factor, which were the residue content for cement mortars (%CBW of 10%, 25% and 40%), his particle size (PS of 125μm, 75μm and 45μm) and water/cement ratio (W/C of 2.50, 2.85 and 3.20). The properties measured were the consistency index for fresh and the compressive strength at various ages for hardened properties. The physical, chemical and microstructural characterizations of mortars with and without RPT were performed in order to correlate their mechanical and microstructural properties. Thus, the CBW has been shown to act as a pozzolanic material, with an addition of up to 40% could be performed without the physical and mechanical properties were impaired. The particle size was found to be important in the pozzolanicity of the waste, being more efficient at lower values than 75μm, inclusive. Through the characterization of the mortars was observed the consumption of calcium hydroxide, caused by the pozzolanic reaction of the CBW, forming the calcium silicate hydrate gel, increasing the density of the cementitious matrix and improving the cohesion between the elements of the mixture.
O cimento Portland é um material consumido em grande escala no Brasil e no mundo. Porém, seu processo de fabricação é ligado a problemas ambientais impactantes. Com isso, a utilização de materiais recicláveis, com características pozolânicas, vem sendo estudado para substituir parcialmente o cimento em aplicações como argamassas e concretos. Portanto, este trabalho tem como finalidade estudar o efeito da substituição parcial do cimento Portland por resíduo particulado de tijolo (RPT) nas propriedades de argamassas mistas (cimento e cal hidratada) para aplicação na construção civil. Um estudo estatístico utilizando um projeto fatorial fracionado 33-1 levou em consideração três fatores e três níveis para cada fator, os quais foram o teor de resíduo em substituição ao cimento (%RPT de 10%, 25% e 40%), o tamanho de partícula do resíduo (TP de 125μm, 75μm e 45μm) e o fator água/cimento (W/C de 2,50, 2,85 e 3,20). As propriedades medidas foram o índice de consistência para o estado fresco e a resistência à compressão em várias idades para o estado endurecido. A caracterização física, química e microestrutural das argamassas com e sem RPT foram realizadas a fim de correlacionar suas propriedades mecânicas e microestruturais. Com isso, o RPT se mostrou capaz de agir como material pozolânico, sendo que uma adição de até 40% pôde ser realizada, sem que as propriedades físicas e mecânicas fossem prejudicadas. A granulometria mostrou-se importante na pozolanicidade do resíduo, sendo mais eficiente em valores menores do que 75μm, incluindo este. Através da caracterização das argamassas foi observado o consumo do hidróxido de cálcio causado pela reação pozolânica do RPT, formando o gel de silicato de cálcio hidratado, densificando a matriz cimentícia e melhorando a coesão entre os elementos da mistura.

This study aims to evaluate the effect of incorporation of particles of fired clay brick waste (CBW) in the physical and mechanical properties and their relation to the microstructure of concrete with Portland cement. The mixtures were obtained using the technique of fractional factorial design 33-1 for the design and analysis of experiments. For each factor, three levels were selected: CBW content (10, 20 and 30 wt. % of cement), water-to-cement ratio of 0.37, 0.45 and 0.55, and aggregate-to-cement ratio of 2.36, 3.64 and 4.70. The waste was characterized to evaluate their potential as a pozzolana. Fresh properties (consistency) and hardened (compressive strength at various ages, voids index, water absorption and density) were measured. Characterizations of microstructure and thermal using SEM / EDS and DTA / TG were performed to correlate the effect of waste content on the microstructure and properties of the hardened concrete. The waste presents properties adequate to be used as a pozzolan material. Consistency index decreases with the incorporation of the CBW, but is still possible to obtain concrete with adequate workability. For properties in the hardened concrete, the results show that the compressive strength increases with the increase of CBW content as an addition for concretes of Portland cement. Microstructural characterization reveals that the waste contributes to develop a more homogeneous microstructure with fewer pores and cracks when compared to concretes without waste. There is evidences that metakaolin contained in the waste contributes with the hydration reactions, consuming calcium hydroxide and producing more calcium silicate gel and hydrated phases, which keeps the aggregates more cohesive in the concrete microstructure. These microstructural characteristics improve the mechanical properties and durability of concrete.
Este trabalho tem como objetivo avaliar o efeito da incorporação de rejeitos particulados de tijolos (RPT) nas propriedades físicas e mecânicas e sua relação com a microestrutura de concretos de cimento Portland. Os traços foram formulados utilizando a técnica de planejamento fatorial fracionado 33-1 para o projeto e análise de experimentos. Para cada fator, três níveis foram selecionados: teor de RTP incorporado (10, 20 e 30 % em relação ao cimento), relações água-cimento de 0,37, 0,45 e 0,55, e relações agregado-cimento de 2,36, 3,64 e 4,70. O rejeito foi caracterizado para avaliar seu potencial quanto à pozolanicidade. Propriedades no estado fresco (consistência) e endurecido (resistênca à compressão em várias idades, índice de vazios, absorção de água e densidade) foram medidas. Caracterizações de microestrutura e térmica usando MEV/EDS e ADT/TG foram realizadas para correlacionar o efeito do teor de rejeito na microestrutura e propriedades no concreto endurecido. O rejeito apresenta características que possibilitam seu uso como material pozolânico. Para o índice de consistência observa-se que o mesmo diminue com a incorporação do RPT, porém ainda é possíviel obter concretos com adequada trabalhabilidade. Para as propriedades no concreto endurecido, os resultados mostram que a resistência à compressão aumenta com o aumento da porcentagem de RPT em adição ao concreto de cimento Portland. A caracterização microestrutural revela que o rejeito contribui para desenvolver uma microestrutura mais homogênea, com menos trincas e poros, quando comparadas às misturas sem o rejeito. Há indícios de que a metacaulinita contida no rejeito participa das reações de hidratação, consumindo hidróxido de cálcio e produzindo mais silicato de cálcio gel e fases hidratadas, as quais contribuem para manter os agregados mais coesos no corpo cerâmico. Estas características microestruturais melhoram as propriedades mecânicas e durabilidade dos concretos.

Abstract:
Ferrochrome slag is a by-product from the production of ferrochrome, an essential component in stainless steel. World wide it is known that ferrochrome slags are been used mainly in the road and civil construction industries, and in producing refractories. Slag management at ferrochrome producing companies has been influenced by the limited space available and financial cost implications of the siag dumps. In South Africa, according to the Department of Water Affairs and Forestry's minimum requirements, (DWAF, 1998), ferrochrome slag due to its quantity or volume on the disposal sites has been classified as hazardous, as it leaches Manganese (Mn) (33%) above the DWAF minimum environmental requirements acceptable levels. This rating of the slag has therefore put limitations on the use of slag commercially. This paper investigates the various slag uses proposed which can impact positively on the management of the slag i.e. that would reduce its dumping loads and consequently its impact on the surrounding environment. The uses proposed for are brick and concrete making and road building. The paper provides results for the proposed slag uses leaching potential, performs a risk assessment to determine its potential effect on the environment and human health as weli as discusses the method used to delist the slag through the South African delisting process. Comments on the process from the DEAT are also provided.

Abstract:
The clay brick is one of the oldest building materials, and as the use of waste in the bricks can reduce clay consummation and the environmental burden due to the accumulation of waste, the present study was chosen, the addition of mineral and organic waste to the clay brick. The added value of this work, which was carried out within the Institute of Building Materials at VGTU, is that the mixture studied is very special, because the raw materials used are: − Yellow Clay (C) from Fez which is used only in the field of pottery; − Pyrrhotite Ash (PA) which is a mineral waste produced during the manufacture of sulphuric acid from the roasting of pyrrhotite ore. This waste is stored in the open air since 1982 and until now it doesn't have any specific use; − Cedar Sawdust (S) is an organic waste regenerate by the artisanal sector from Fez. The bricks’ technological properties depended on the amount of ashes used. So, adding 5% S to the mixture (20% PA – 80% C) gives rise to a new material that is light, porous with a natural brick red colour. Most importantly, this material exhibits mechanical strength according to the standards of a terracotta brick.

Abstract:
Abstract The construction waste generated annually in India is around 165-175 million tonnes, as per 2019 India's insights. This paper investigates the use of brick waste (B/W) as an aggregate in Oil Well cement and studies it's viability. Bricks are made from calcination of alumino-silicate clay hence they are expected to have artificial pozzolanic material. The addition of B/W significantly influences particle volume fraction, which is further elaborated in this paper. The construction industry in India is booming. Already at 10 percent of the GDP, it has been growing at an annual rate of 10 percent over the last 10 years against the world's average of 5.5 percent per annum and the built-up area is expected to grow 5 times by 2030. This will lead to a subsequent increase in construction waste, including brick waste. As per TIFAC (Technology Information, Forecasting and Assessment Council), a Government of India agency, a new construction generates 40-60 kg of brick waste per sq. meter.

Abstract:
For the refuse-to-energy industry, “Saving Energy with Brick, Refractory, Insulation and Lagging (BRIL)” is as simply as understanding it’s refuse boiler. A refuse-fired boiler has many components to make it do what it is supposed to do. BRIL is a key component of the boiler just as important as the tubes that carry the water &/or steam, the soot blowers that keep the unit free of fly ash or dust, the burners that burn the fuel efficiently, the economizers that recover heat and pre-heat the water, and many more such systems found on, in and around the boiler. They all help keep the boiler operating thermally and energy efficient. Proper BRIL material selection and installation can have an energy savings of 5–7% per year in fuel consumption. That is why experts say, “brick, refractory, insulation, and lagging (BRIL) installed to save energy, saves money at a rate that is essential for efficient plant operation.”

Abstract:
The steam and power generating industries, like most, have to pay close attention to health and safety issues pertinent to its industry components. Each component of the boiler island has some special and unique issues that must be addressed. Brick, refractory, and insulation are no exception. They have very specific health and safety issues on just about every type of refractory and insulation material available on the market today. Not to mention the health and safety issues associated with the materials of products no longer manufactured but still found on existing construction. These industries must know about the health and safety issues associated with the products to be installed at their facilities. They must also familiarize themselves with those products that exist on their boilers. Ignorance is not an excuse and will save them no money when and if someone breaches an area that has a material that presents a health or safety issue. Proper material selection and proper preventive practices will prevent any potentially dangerous and health threatening issues. Paying close attention and following all health and safety requirements will protect the health and safety of those working in and around brick, refractory and insulation materials.

Abstract:
An energy audit can mean many things to many different people. For some, an energy audit or assessment means focusing on processes, operations, or equipment. This particular audit was directed toward the brick, refractory, and insulation, and its direct effect on the boiler’s efficiency, reliability, and energy fuel savings. Compared to most components found on a steam-generating boiler the cost of the materials and the installation of the refractory or brick are very small (less than 1% of the total cost of a new boiler). Yet, when properly designed, specified, stored, installed, cured or dried, refractory will save as much as five to seven percent in annual fuel cost (oil, gas, coal, refuse). Refractory and brick problems are found on most steam-generating boilers. These problems directly affected the amount of fuel used to meet heat and steam requirements. A boiler will always use more fuel if the brick and refractory are not installed correctly. After all the changes and corrections were made it was estimated that there will be an annual fuel savings of approximately $100,000 per year. This is why experts say, “Brick and refractory installed to save energy also saves money at a rate that is essential for efficient plant operation.”

Abstract:
This paper is a report on the results of a feasibility study on the immobilization of municipal solid waste incinerator fly ash by producing a fired clay brick. The main purpose of this work was to test the clay used in the manufacture of a fired clay brick that could incorporate municipal solid waste incinerator fly ash. The raw materials, municipal solid waste incinerator fly ash and clay, were mixed together in different proportions (100:0, 97.5:2.5, 95:5 and 92.5:7.5). Clay brick samples were heated to 1000 °C temperatures for 1 h. The fired clay brick specimens were characterised with respect to compressive strength, porosity, linear shrinkage (after drying, after firing) and density. Leaching tests, in accord with the European Union regulation, was done on fired clay brick made with different additions of municipal solid waste incinerator fly ash.
