| Abstract Scope |
Boron mining is carried out as opencast mining in Turkey. Boron containing wastes generating from production facilities are suitable raw materials for sectors when environmental impacts are taking into consideration, too. In this study, the effect of various amounts of boron waste added to the ceramic body on forming, firing processes have been analyzed. This study has been carried out in order to provide information for bringing in this inert potential resource to the advantage of the country's economy. The waste sample added into hard materials to form masse in the ratio of 3.5% and 7%, respectively to ceramic factory production line. Hard materials were minimized and homogenized with stamp mill before crushed in ball mill while plastic materials pretreated in blunger. Depending on the input ratio of wastes, an increased in viscosity was observed. Increase in cooking derogation and improvements in structural properties resulted in low water absorption |
