“…Furthermore, all sample groups demonstrated physical properties that exceeded ISO 10545-3 [44] standard and ISO 10545-4 [45] standard (i.e., modulus of rupture greater than 35 MPa and water absorption rate less than 0.5%). It is worth noting that, consistent with Erdogmus et al's findings [51], increasing the molding pressure within a certain range can enhance the physical properties of ceramic materials; however, exceeding a critical value will lead to performance deterioration. The data presented in Table 12 indicate that the apparent porosity of the ceramic tile sample initially decreased and then increased with increasing molding pressure.…”

Steel slag and waste clay bricks are two prevalent solid waste materials generated during industrial production. The complex chemical compositions of these materials present challenges to their utilization in conventional alumina silicate ceramics manufacturing. A new type of ceramic tile, which utilizes steel slag and waste clay brick as raw materials, has been successfully developed in order to effectively utilize these solid wastes. The optimal composition of the ceramic material was determined through orthogonal experimentation, during which the effects of the sample molding pressure, the soaking time, and the sintering temperature on the ceramic properties were studied. The results show that the optimal ceramic tile formula was 45% steel slag, 35% waste clay bricks, and 25% talc. The optimal process parameters for this composition included a molding pressure of 25 MPa, a sintering temperature of 1190 °C, and a soaking time of 60 min. The prepared ceramic tile samples had compositions in which solid waste accounted for more than 76% of the total material. Additionally, they possessed a modulus of rupture of more than 73.2 MPa and a corresponding water absorption rate of less than 0.05%.

“…Research has indicated that incorporating zeolite tuff into fired ceramic brick production can yield remarkable improvements in their physical and mechanical attributes [25]. Erdogmus et al, who studied the effect of compaction pressure and sintering temperature on the compressive strength of the produced bricks based on natural zeolite, found that increasing the firing temperature from 900 • C to 1100 • C significantly boosted the compressive strength of zeolite bricks molded at 15 MPa pressure, escalating it from 7.1 MPa to an impressive 51.2 MPa [26]. Despite the recognition zeolitic tuffs have obtained as construction material, their potential as raw materials for the manufacturing of brick has largely remained untapped.…”

The use of waste materials has gained attention as a sustainable approach in various industries. Cigarette waste, which is typically discarded as a non-recyclable material, poses a significant environmental challenge due to its toxicity and slow decomposition rate. However, by incorporating this waste into ceramic bricks, new approaches for waste management and resource utilization are explored. This research work provides a detailed evaluation of the possibility of utilizing natural zeolite tuff incorporated with cigarette waste to produce sustainable ceramic bricks. Uniform powders are produced by milling various combinations of zeolitic tuff and cigarette waste using a planetary ball mill. The substitution ratios ranged from 0% to 12% by weight of the zeolitic tuff, with increments of 2%. Ceramic discs were formed by dry pressing and then subjected to sintering at different heat treatment temperatures (950–1250 °C). The impact of the inclusion of cigarette waste on the microstructural and technical features of zeolite tuff-based ceramic bricks has been thoroughly investigated. The results of the experiments demonstrate that incorporating cigarette waste into the development of ceramic bricks leads to improved thermal insulation properties, with thermal conductivity ranging from 0.33 to 0.93 W/m·K. Additionally, these bricks exhibit a lighter weight in a range of 1.45 to 1.96 g/cm3. Although the inclusion of cigarette waste slightly reduces the compressive strength, with values ranging from 6.96 to 58.6 MPa, it still falls within the acceptable range specified by standards. The inclusion of cigarette waste into zeolite tuff is an innovative approach and sustainable practice for reducing energy consumption in buildings while simultaneously addressing the issue of waste disposal and pollution mitigation.
