Extension of Raw Material Base for Ceramic Building Bricks Production

Abstract

The purpose of the paper is to determine the possibility of using water purification slime as a raw material in the production of ceramic building brick. The spectrophotometric, power dispersing, atomic and absorption methods of research and biotesting were used. The possibility of using the water purifying slime as a pore-forming component is proved by the production of ceramsite brick. The optimum amount of the component of water purification slime to the main raw materials has been established. The small level of heavy metals leaching from the received construction material has been experimentally proved. The article can be of interest to the experts in the field of creating new construction materials using the production wastes and sewage purifying.

Adsorption Activity of Thermally Modified Shell Hazelnut in Relation to Ions Ni²⁺

“…The main selection criteria are: the content of carbon and impurities, the amount of waste generated, the technical and economic efficiency of the developed materials, the reduction of the technogenic load on the environment by economically viable methods of wastewater treatment [7,8]. In scientific research, materials based on rice and buckwheat husks, pulp, peat, waste products -defecate, wood waste are considered as carbon sorbents [9][10][11][12][13]20,21].…”

Research of Mechanisms of Copper Ions Removal out of Sewage of Machine-Building Productions by Combined Reagent Based on Industrial Wastes

“…However, taking into account conditions of formation of sewage, not any method can be considered to be universal. Therefore, development of effective and cheap methods, including the use of industrial wastes is rather urgent [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20].…”
