The Use of Ornamental Stone Waste (OSW) as Raw Material for Porcelain Ceramic Tiles Production
ABSTRACT Despite the relevant contribution of the ornamental stone industry to the international economy, the large volume of waste generated during the production process is one of the main problems faced by the sector. Currently, the ceramic industry has shown to be a powerful alternative for the use of these wastes.

Effect of nanosilica and nanoboehmite in the pyroplastic deformation of a porcelain tile paste
Abstract Porcelain tiles are low‐porosity ceramic coatings, formed by a mixture of clay minerals, quartz, and feldspars, and fired at temperatures close to 1200°C with formation of a liquid phase that can result in unwanted pyroplastic deformations. In addition, the rectangular formats, large dimensions, reduced thicknesses, and fast thermal cycles ...

Bricks and Concrete Wastes as Coarse and Fine Aggregates in Sustainable Mortars
The total substitution by volume of natural coarse calcareous aggregate by coarse recycled brick aggregate (RBA) and coarse recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) has been investigated to produce more sustainable and environment‐friendly mortars. Aggregates were also partially substituted by their fines at 12.5% by volume.
