It is well known that industrial wastes are considerably hazardous to the environment therefore recycling wastes by merging them into the building materials is an appropriate solution. This research reviews usability of waste casting sand (WCS) and waste boron (WB) in clay based bricks. For this purpose, composite bricks produced by adding appropriate mixtures of wastes and various chemical additives in cement free clay. Firing temperature of the composite bricks was 800ºC. When compared with standard specifications, experimental results showed that with the addition of WCS into the bricks, strength and bulk density improved. Moreover, drying shrinkage and water absorption values decreased. The presence of WCS and WB in clay bricks enhanced the compression strength which is higher than standard bricks.

Endüstriyel Atıkların Kil Tabanlı Tuğlalarda Kullanımı

Öz

Endüstriyel atıkların çevreye belirgin bir şekilde zararlı olduğu çok iyi bilinmektedir, bu sebeple atıkların geri dönüşümü yapı malzemeleri ile birleştirilerek kullanılması uygun bir çözümdür. Bu araştırma atık döküm kumu ve atık borun, kil tabanlı tuğla üretiminde kullanılabilirliğini incelemiştir. Bu amaçla, uygun miktarda atık ve çeşitli kimyasal ilaveler çimento içermeyen kile eklenerek kompozit tuğlalar üretilmiştir. Tuğlaların pişirme sıcaklığı 800ºC’dir. Standart veriler deneysel çalışma sonuçları ile kıyaslandığında; atık fabrika kumu ilave edilen tuğlaların dayanım ve yığın yoğunluk değerleri yükselmiştir. Ek olarak, kompozit tuğlaların hacim küçülmesi ve su emme değerlerinde düşüş görülmüştür. Atık fabrika kumu ve atık borun kil tuğlalarında kullanılması basınç dayanımını iyileştirmiş ve bu değer standart tuğlalar ile kıyasla daha yüksek çıkmıştır.

Anahtar Kelimeler

Yığın yoğunluk, kompozit tuğla, fabrika atıkları, basınç dayanımı
