“…This is because control brick contains a larger amount of water and more clay minerals. In addition, the amorphous form of some volatile compounds is undergoing a transition toward the crystalline form [44,57].…”

The European Green Deal, which emphasizes zero-waste economies, and waste recycling in construction and building materials, has arisen due to significant worldwide needs for solid waste recovery and usage. This ambitious study focuses on recycling mixed construction and demolition (C&D) waste into burnt bricks and investigating the influence of firing temperature. While pursuing its objectives, this is dependent on raw material characterization and burnt-brick product quality assessment. The recycling of mixed C&D waste is explored by mixing the waste into two soil types (alluvial and laterite) in ratios ranging from 5% to 45% at three firing temperatures (700 °C, 850 °C and 900 °C). The utilization of mixed C&D waste in amounts of 10% at 700 °C and 25% at 850 °C and 900 °C fulfilled the Indian standard. Although a fire at 700 °C results in less optimal waste utilization, it is beneficial and recommended for reducing the carbon footprint and energy use. Additional mineralogical and microstructural analyzes are performed on the optimal fired samples. The study’s findings are promising for sustainable resource usage, reducing carbon footprint, and reducing waste disposal volume. This research is a big step toward the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations and a circular economy.

“…Brick is one of the oldest materials for construction and is widely used for its durability, strength, reliability, low cost, and easy to make. A study from [16] reported that the global annual brick supply currently stands around 1391 billion units, and demand for bricks is expected to grow continuously. Bricks are obtained by moulding clay in standardized rectangular blocks, then by drying and burning the blocks [17].…”

“…Conventional bricks are produced from mud with kiln firing at elevated temperatures. Therefore, contain high embodied energy and deliver excessive carbon footprint [16]. The firing of high-temperature kilns consumes not only significant quantities of energy but also produces massive amounts of greenhouse gases.…”

Malaysia has been recognized in recent decades as one of the world's leading palm oil producers and exporters. The number of palm oil mills multiplies each year, increasing the capacity of fresh fruit bunch waste or effluent discharged. Countless numbers of research and development, as well as implementation, have been dedicated to advancing the pollution control technologies. Most of the research is to treat and manage liquid and solid waste generated from palm oil mills. The main reason for such tremendous efforts is that the waste coming from palm oil mills has been declared as one of the pollution sources in the world. Thus, the purpose of this study was to utilize treated palm oil mill effluent (POME) sludge from the electrocoagulation process to produce bricks. Here, three different dilution rates, which was 60%, 90% and 100% of POME concentration have been analyzed in the electrocoagulation process, respectively. After the electrocoagulation process, the characteristics of POME effluents were evaluated, and the treated POME sludge was collected. Instead of being discarded after the treatment, the treated waste sludge from the electrocoagulation process was used to make bricks. Three different bricks labelled (A, B and C) from treated POME sludge from the electrocoagulation process (60%, 90% and 100%) were fabricated. These bricks have been analyzed based on the JKR Standard Specifications for Building Works. Data obtained showed that the compressive strength for the bricks (A, B and C) after seven days were 6.076, 8.233, and 6.344 N/mm2. Meanwhile, the bulk density of the bricks (A, B and C) were 2247.92, 2233.95, and 2094.33 kg/m3. The results showed that the compressive strength for these brick samples had met the JKR Standard Specification for Building Works of 5.2 N/mm2. It can be deduced that the bricks from treated POME can be a greener product compared to the traditional bricks. Moreover, the concept of a circular economy is adapted in this study to eliminate waste for a long-term sustainable environment.
