Ceramic Materials from Coffee Bagasse Ash Waste [electronic resource] /
Acchar, Wilson.author.
J. V. Dultra, Eduardo.author.
This book proposes the use of coffee bagasse ash (CBA) waste as raw material to be used in ceramic formulations. The approach presented here is a solution to a current ambiental problem as CBA waste is discharged in high amounts in agriculture. The authors analyze the potencial of CBA as a material to substitute feldspar in tile production.
Description based upon print version of record.
Includes bibliographical references.
Introduction -- Porcelain Tile -- Solid Waste Materials -- Coffee Industry in Brazil -- Using CBA in Ceramic Formulations -- Theoretical Analysis of Crystalline Phases -- Physical and Mechanical Properties of CBA Incorporated Materials -- Mullite and Leucite Formation.
