Characterization of Clay Ceramics Based on the Recycling of Industrial Residues – On the Use of Photothermal Techniques to Determine Ceramic Thermal Properties and Gas Emissions during the Clay Firing Process

Using mixture design of experiments to assess the environmental impact of clay-based structural ceramics containing foundry wastes

“…Particularly, the potential use of industrial wastes in ceramic processes has been widely investigated by various authors, demonstrating that products showing good technological properties could be obtained [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. Nevertheless, just like at the end of its useful life and landfill deposition, compliance leaching tests are used to assess the environmental impact of the alternative product that incorporates the upgraded waste.…”
