Wastewater treatment processes produce sewage sludge (SS), which, in line with environmental sustainability principles, can be a valuable source of matter in the production of lightweight expanded clay aggregate (LECA). The literature on the influence of SS content and sintering temperature on the properties of LECA is scarce. This paper aims to statistically evaluate the effects of SS content and sintering temperature on LECA physical properties. Total porosity, pore volume, and apparent density were determined with the use of a density analyzer. A helium pycnometer was utilized to determine the specific density. Closed porosity was calculated. The test results demonstrated a statistically significant influence of the SS content on the specific density and water absorption of LECA. The sintering temperature had a significant effect on the specific density, apparent density, total porosity, closed porosity, total volume of pores, and water absorption. It was proved that a broad range of the SS content is admissible in the raw material mass for the production of LECA.

The construction industry continues to develop and the requirements for cement performance are getting higher and higher. At the same time, in the steel industry, the discharge of steel slag is also increasing. The effective reuse of steel slag has become a prominent problem in the steel industry. . Therefore, it is envisaged to use steel slag as a raw material for the cement production process to produce cement and to produce high-performance cement. The main raw materials of this experiment are steel slag, limestone, sandstone and shale. Through the cement preparation process, the cement is made, and then the cement is made into concrete to test its performance. This experiment mainly studies the sintering temperature and holding time variable. In the experimental test, the analysis and comparison were carried out in five aspects of the degree of macroscopic cracking, particle size, density, microstructure and composition. In the comparison experiment of sintering temperature, with the increase of temperature, the flexural and compressive properties of cement gradually increased. In this test, 1200 °C is the most suitable temperature for the performance of the cement. Through the experimental comparison of different holding time, it is known that with the prolonging of the holding time, the microstructure and actual performance of the cement are continuously enhanced. Comprehensive consideration: the ratio of steel slag in cement ratio is 10%, sintering temperature is 1200 °C, and heat preservation is 2h. The steel slag cement prepared under this condition has the strongest performance.

Using sewage sludge to manufacture green high performance haydite was investigated. Sewage sludge was blended with fly ash and river silt, made into raw haydite pellets and sintered. The haydite properties of different mix proportions and sinter parameters were studied. Then microstructure analysis and toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP) were performed. Results show that reducing sludge percentage of raw pellets decreases water absorption, also makes particle strength and apparent density raise. Increasing preheat temperature enhances particle strength and density while reduces water absorption. Sintered with optimum parameters, density grade of sludge haydite is 700, water absorption is 0.6%, and cylinder compressive strength is 6.6MPa. Microstructure analysis shows enamel surface and internal fine porous structure make haydite lightweight, high strength and low water absorption. And TCLP results show traces of heavy metal content are found in sludge haydite.

The present work has evaluated Kalalani vermiculite as a potential raw material for the production of high strength porcelain insulators. Three porcelain compositions were prepared to contain 0, 20 and 30 wt% of Kalalani vermiculite. Porcelain samples were fabricated using a semi-drying method. The chemical, mineralogical phases and microstructural characterization of the raw materials were carried out using XRF, XRD, and SEM techniques, respectively. Water absorption, bulk density, dielectric and bending strengths were performed on porcelain samples fired up to 1300?C. However, at the sintering temperature of 1250?C, the porcelain sample with 20 wt% of Kalalani vermiculite gave the dielectric strength of 61.3 kV/mm, bending strength of 30.54 MPa, bulk density of 2.21 g/cm3 and low water absorption value of 0.21 % which is the prerequisite properties for high strength porcelain insulators. It was therefore concluded that Kalalani vermiculite has the potential to be used for the production of high strength porcelain insulators

This paper deals with the evaluation of a partial replacement of cement by Czech fly ash in high strength floor screed in dosage of 10, 20, 30 and 40% and the assessment of the physical-mechanical properties such as compressive strength, water absorption and bulk density. Used fly ashes are from power plants Počerady, Opatovice and Tušimice. The experimental study showed that the use of Czech fly ash improves the compressive strength. The bulk density decreases and therefore water absorption increases. Reference samples become clearly the lowest compressive strength at age of 28 days (fc28). A significant increase in compressive strength (fc28) was observed in case of mix design with addition of 10% and 20% of fly ash Tušimice (10%ETU, 20%ETU) and 20% and 30% of fly ash Počerady (20%EPC, 30%EPC). The addition of 20% of fly ash Počerady (20%EPC) has noticeable influence on short-term compressive strength (measured at the age of 24 hours).

During processing of zirconia blocks, where they are used for different dental implants type, most of the loosed material as a powder is subsequently discarded. Besides damage to the environment, waste of material results in financial losses, resulting in higher final cost of treatment. The yttria stabilized zirconia (Y-TZP) has a variety of applications due to it is combination of high strength and fracture toughness. The objective was to reuse zirconia waste analyzing the effects of sintering temperature. The starting materials used in this study were two different powders of ceramic system ZrO3-Y2O3: commercial zirconia nanoparticle and microparticle zirconia waste. The raw material was shaped by uniaxial and isostatic pressing and then sintered at 1500, 1550 and 1600 ° C over 1 hour. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) and dilatometry were used to powder characterization. After sintering density / porosity, flexural strength, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were realized .The waste showed similar values of density, and grain size to commercial material studied, confirming that it can be reused.

The article presents the results of experiments to determine the interconnection between water impermeability and water absorption of ceramic tiles obtained on the basis of argillite-like clays that are widespread in the Southern Russia. It is shown that with a decrease in water absorption, the permeability of ceramics is normally reduced. It is found out that with 5% water absorption, a tile can be considered guaranteed waterproof. In this case, the index is independent of the tile thickness. It has been proved that it is possible to reduce the water absorption and increase the bending strength of tiles based on argillite-like clays by finer grinding of raw material or increasing the burning temperature. It is justified that the production of ceramics with high strength and low water absorption makes it possible to produce tiles with a smaller thickness and weight, as well as with lesser probability of biological corrosion.
