Abstract

In this work, MSWI (municipal solid waste incineration) fly ash is used as a blending in production of ceramic brick by taking advantage of its high contents of SiO2, Al2O3 and CaO. Besides, macro-performance of the product was studied. It is found that when 20% fly ash is added, the product registers a high compressive strength of 18.9 MPa and a low water absorption of 8.9 % after being sintered at 1000°C. These results as a whole suggest that the use of MSWI fly ash in ceramic brick constitutes a potential means of adding value.
