Clay minerals are critical components for fired bricks because they provide plasticity,
porosity and adequate strength for desired products. Investigations on clay minerals have …

Focused on uncoated ceramics, this tutorial paper is divided into two main sections. The first
section deals with the operational phases required prior to firing (drying, piling, fuel supply) …

In-depth research has been conducted in recent years on novel, environmentally acceptable
adsorbent materials in response to the growing concern over dye contamination in industrial …

Iron sludge produced numerously from drinking water treatment plants can be recycled to
create catalyst for peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation. In this study, iron sludge-derived …

Textile-dyeing sludge reutilization is considered as an effective management scheme in the
transition to low-carbon and sustainable development from the conventional incineration or …

The mineralogical transformation of clay material is critical to the firing process for brick
manufacturing. In this study, a series of in-situ integrated techniques are used to study the …

Vermiculite is a hydrous clay mineral that occasionally occurs in raw materials for
brickmaking. The presence of vermiculite affects the drying and firing processes of brick …

Mycotoxin, as one of the most common pollutants in animal feeds, is harmful and
widespread, which has severely restricted the healthy development of livestock and feed …

Significant research investigations on the characteristics of unexplored clay deposits are
being conducted in light of the growing need for clay in the ceramic industry and the variable …

Geopolymerization was investigated as an alternative to traditional ceramic products by
develo** a more sustainable approach that avoids thermal treatment. The study presents …
