Comparative study of the use of different biomass from olive grove in the manufacture of sustainable ceramic lightweight bricks
Luis Pérez-Villarejo,Dolores Eliche-Quesada,J. Martín-Pascual,M. Martín-Morales,Montserrat Zamorano +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of the type and ratio of waste on the physical and mechanical properties of waste clay bricks was studied and compared with clay bricks without waste following standard procedures, and the best results were obtained from the samples containing 7.5% olive waste showing that these organic pore-forming wastes have the potential for producing lighter bricks that could be marketed as low density clay masonry units with adequate mechanical properties and higher thermal insulating capacity.
