“…In contrast, Zr does not correlate with the heavy rare earth elements. Th strongly correlates with a number of other elements (Table S2), especially the rare earth element (REE), such as Yb and Ho ( r = 0.91 and r = 0.89), which implies control by clay minerals and/or associated phases (e.g., oxides, hydroxides, and silicates; Mukherjee, ).…”

“…The endothermic peak at 573˚C is related to the transformation of alpha quartz into beta quartz. However, in contrast to the thermograms of the LVG sample, Figure 3(b) exhibits a prominent endothermic peak at approximately 835˚C, which can be attributed to sodium anorthite or K-feldspar [4].…”

“…For this reason, there is considerable interest in using technology to develop a new type of clay brick with improved performance in response to the technological challenges posed by the modern construction industry. However, the production of clay bricks has a high environmental impact in terms of the consumption of non-renewable resources (materials), energy, and water as well as the emission of greenhouse gases and the generation of waste, among other aspects [2]- [4].…”

The objective of this work was to develop a more and better understanding of the strength developing in clay-andesite fired brick. The purpose was to improve the quality of the clay bricks that are handmade in the southern region of Ecuador to make them suitable for more widespread use in the local construction industry. To achieve our goal, we first physically, chemically, and mechanically characterized the "clayey" and "sandy" materials used in the fabrication of handmade bricks in the region. Second, the optimal mixture (OM): the optimal proportion between the amounts of "clayey" and "sandy" material was sought. Third, clay bricks were prepared using the OM, baked at 950˚C, and characterized. In addition, bricks produced by regional artisans were characterized, and the results were compared with the results obtained for the bricks prepared using the OM. Our data reveal that the optimal mixture is 50% "clayey" material and 50% "sandy" material and that with this mixture, an average improvement in brick quality of 300% can be achieved; thus, the use of the OM makes it possible to expand the use of these bricks in the local construction industry and enables an environmentally friendly production process by reducing the intensive exploitation of regional clay deposits. This improvement is achieved by virtue of the anorthite enrichment that occurs in the solid solution, which results from the evolution of andesine. The anorthite contributes to the formation of a stronger matrix among the different grains of the material. Conditions are favorable for this enrichment process to occur when "sandy" materials with high contents of andesite, which is common in Ecuadorian soils, are used.

“…The waste contained (by weight): 25 % of quartz, 18 % of barite, 5 % of calcite, 3 % of dolomite, 3 % of feldspar and 32 % of clay minerals (illite, kaolinite, serpentine). The clay minerals are very good adsorbent of organic compounds [19]. In order to prevent clay hydration and swelling, the quaternary amines are frequently added to drilling muds [20].…”

The oil containing drilling waste is a worldwide environmental problem associated with oil and gas exploration. In Poland, the problem of the drilling waste has become important since starting of shale gas exploration. The results of thermal treatment of drilling waste from shale gas exploration are presented. It has been shown that organic content vaporized completely at temperature up to 500 °C. The main problem is high content of chloride, sulfate, sodium, potassium, magnesium in the waste and its water leachate. Toxicity tests confirmed that high salinity of the samples pose important risk for environment. Due to the high content of barium, the drilling waste may be utilized in production of cement with high chemical and heat resistance and opaque to X-ray. Thermal treatment process is a viable option for remediation of the drilling waste; however, the product of the process needs further treatment in order to remove its high salinity.
