On the production of fired clay bricks from waste materials: A critical update
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed works on the firing method, published since 1987, were related to wastes incorporated into clay ceramics and concluded that at least for the next decades, clay ceramic incorporation seems to be the most realistic solution for recycling industrial wastes in countries, such as Brazil, with vast clay resources.
