@article{Ferraz2011ManufactureOC, title={Manufacture of Ceramic Bricks Using Recycled Brewing Spent Kieselguhr}, author={Eduardo Ferraz and J. Coroado and Joaquim Pedro Silva and Celso S. F. Gomes and Fernando Rocha}, journal={Materials and Manufacturing Processes}, year={2011}, volume={26}, pages={1319 - 1329} }
In the brewing process, kieselguhr performs as a filtration medium and one generated by-product is a sludge containing kieselguhr, which is mainly composed of fragmented diatom frustules associated to organic material retained during the clarification process. The physic-mechanic tests were performed on assemblages with brick composition and brewing spent kieselguhr containing 3, 9, and 15 wt% incorporation levels of sludge, being extruded and dried (105°C) before being submitted to slow firing…
