PROVISIONAL SPECIFICATION.
An Improved Means for Utilizing Refuse from Dust Heaps and
other places.
I, CHRISTOPHER CHANDLER, of 19, Derby Road, West Croydon, Surrey,
Auctioneer and Builder, do hereby declare the nature of this invention to be as
follows:-
This invention relates to an improved means for utilizing rubbish from dust
heaps, and factories and spent lime, cinders, ashes, and other refuse or debris,
and has for its object to provide a means whereby such rubbish may be converted
into materials for building purposes without the necessity of burning or kilning.
The refuse to be converted is placed in a pug or mortar mill and reduced to a
fine pressed state and mixed with Portland or other cement. To this mixture is
added water or other liquids until the required consistency is obtained.
This is then moulded into bricks or other similar articles for builders' use such
as tiles, drain pipes, and the like and exposed preferably in the open to dry.
By this means the necessity of burning or kilning is obviated and thus the
making of bricks can be carried on in any town where the process of kilning or
burning is prohibited, thus saving the expense of carriage, etc., etc.
