“…Ordinary bricks in the durability test break in half, but the paper-made bricks in this test were elastic when only half of the force was applied to them, but when they were tested at full-load, the exterior of the brick was broken, so it was concluded that they would not be suitable for main construction, but could be an alternative to additional structures. Therefore, it can be said that bricks containing paper particles can be a new solution for environmentally friendly buildings [16]; − Films of biopolymer cellulose nanocrystalline have high transparency, low weight, biodegradability, and barrier properties that are suggested in packaging. Transparent cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) films, which are made from office waste paper, were used to cover polyethylene terephthalate (PET).…”

Paper waste is a raw material for a lot of products with different added value. The engineering, economic and environmental aspects of paper waste recycling are analysed for production of composite material, cellulose nanofibers and nanocrystals, bricks with paper components, porous carbon, film of biopolymer, enzymatic sugar and bioenergy: bioethanol, hydrogen and biofuel. Through multicriteria analysis, it was possible to determine the most feasible paper waste recycling product in case of four product groups: egg packaging boxes, cardboard, reused paper, cellulose nanomaterials (nanofibers and nanocrystals). The production of cellulose nanofibres and cellulose nanocrystals has an advantage over egg packaging and cardboard production as well as reusable paper.

“…conditional ranking was madefor the concrete's permeability based on the charge that passes through the sample. Finally, in co mpression testing machine the brick was tested for cracking pattern under different loads [11]. 5.2 Results and Discussions A number of tests were carried out to study the properties of the brick as per the given procedure, results of which are as follows - Specific gravity test-on conducting this test on fine aggregates for three different samples the specific gravity was determined as 2.52.…”

In a bid to develop paper bricks as alternative masonry units, unmodified banana fibers (UMBF) and alkaline (1 Molar aqueous sodium hydroxide) modified banana fibers (AMBF), fine sand, and ordinary Portland cement were blended with waste paper pulp. The fibers were introduced in varying proportions of 0, 0.5, 1.0 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5 wt% (by weight of the pulp) and curing was done for 28 and 56 days. Properties such as water and moisture absorption, compressive, flexural, and splitting tensile strengths, thermal conductivity, and specific heat capacity were appraised. The outcome of the examinations carried out revealed that water absorption rose with fiber loading while AMBF reinforced samples absorbed lesser water volume than UMBF reinforced samples; a feat occasioned by alkaline treatment of banana fiber. Moisture absorption increased with paper bricks doped with UMBF, while in the case of AMBF-paper bricks, property value was noted to depreciate with increment in AMBF proportion. Fiber loading resulted in improvement of compressive, flexural, and splitting tensile strengths and it was noted that AMBF reinforced samples performed better. The result of the thermal test showed that incorporation of UMBF led to depreciation in thermal conductivity while AMBF infusion in the bricks initiated increment in value. Opposite behaviour was observed for specific heat capacity as UMBF enhanced heat capacity while AMBF led to depreciation. Experimental trend analysis carried out indicates that curing length and alkaline modification of fiber were effective in maximizing the properties of paperbricks for masonry construction.
