“…After colored impurities are removed, granite waste can be used to produce architectural glass-ceramics in order to improve its added value. To explore the utilization routes, granite waste can be used as the substitute for feldspar minerals, marble processing abrasives [82,83], and soda lime glass raw materials [84]; and so on. Such lines of research favor the scalable and value-added utilization of granite waste.…”

Quarrying and processing of granite produce large amounts of waste residues. Besides being a loss of resources, improper disposal of these wastes results in pollution of the soil, water and air around the dumpsites. The main components of granite waste are quartz, feldspars and a small amount of biotite. Due to its hard and dense texture, high strength, corrosion resistance and wear resistance, granite waste may be recycled into building materials, composite materials and fine ceramics, effectively improving their mechanical properties and durability. By using the flotation process, high value-added products such as potash feldspar and albite may be retrieved from granite waste. Also, granite waste has the potential for application in soil remediation and sewage treatment. This review presents recent advances in granite waste reutilization, and points out the problems associated with its use, and the related countermeasures, indicating the scale of high value-added reutilization of granite waste.

“…All sintered samples between 900 and 1200 °C were quartz scratch-resistant, indicating the hardness was higher than 7 according to the Mohs scale. Considering the natural stones commonly used in the construction industry such as granite and marble and their respective hardness values on Mohs's scale of 5-6 [30] and 3-4.5 [31], all glasses produced presented superior mechanical resistance.…”

Wastes management studies concerning slaker grits, a rich calcium carbonate landfilled residue from the pulp and paper industry, are focused on their application in the construction field due to their calcareous nature. To the best of our knowledge, slaker grits addition in a high calcium content ceramic frit formulation and their behavior as a glaze has not yet been explored, being the aim of this work. Grits were added as a calcium oxide source in 0, 50%, and 100%, and the frits were analyzed regarding their chemical composition, devitrification, sintering behavior, morphology, colorimetric coordinates, and scratch resistance. By means of comparison, the commercial frit was also characterized. The glazes were analyzed by their physical and thermal properties and scratch resistance. Grits did not prevent the vitreous phases obtention and, compared to the commercial frit, presented a similar behavior, although resulted in higher wollastonite devitrification that directly affected glazes' thermal properties, sintering contraction, linear thermal expansion coefficient, among others. A great outcome was the quartz scratch resistance of the glaze containing the highest grits content, revealing an optimized behavior. Grits residue proved to be a promising alternative raw material capable of generating sustainable and economic perspectives for the ceramic coating sector.

“…Their findings showed that granite abrasive particles can have performance comparable to garnet and are able to cut various hard-to-cut materials. In a similar study, Sarici and Ozdemir [15] also underlined the importance of recovering and reusing granite in order to reduce the amount of harmful waste and compared the performance of granite and alumina particles. Granite was proven efficient as abrasive medium, especially for reducing surface roughness.…”

Abrasive waterjet technology is nowadays a well established non-conventional method with significant capabilities for material removal with high productivity and minimum environmental impact compared to other processes. However, in order to be in line with the green transition directives, further steps are required to ensure the sustainability of manufacturing processes and reduce the risk of material depletion by employing recyclable materials. For this purpose, an eco-friendly abrasive material such as walnut shell is employed for pocket machining of a titanium alloy workpiece. Due to the relatively low hardness of this material, compared to common abrasive materials such as garnet or alumina, it is required to determine the appropriate range of process parameters in order to obtain high-quality pockets with high productivity. Thus, in this work, a comprehensive experimental study is conducted in order to determine the effect of various process parameters on pocket depth, pocket width, material removal rate, flatness and parallelism error of produced pockets. The results prove the feasibility of using walnut shell as abrasive material for pocket milling, although MRR is almost an order of magnitude lower than the values commonly obtained for usual abrasives. Moreover, it is not recommended to use jet pressure values over 250 MPa so dimensional accuracy, flatness and parallelism error are maintained in acceptable values.
