Influence of mineralogy and firing temperature on the porosity of bricks 02-Apr-04 The changes in brick porosity upon firing (700 up to 1100 C) and its relation to the mineralogical composition were examined using two types of raw clay, one containing notable amounts of carbonates, with a grain size of under 1 mm, and the other being predominantly quartzitic and lacking in carbon
Energy from biomass in brick production 01-Aug-03 The high energy costs in brickmaking can be reduced through the production of biogas by means of the anaerobic digestion of biomass, a renewable energy resource..
Goodbye, Reduction Flashing 02-Feb-03 There is high demand for flashed brick products due to the variegated colours and highlights.
Kiln Temperature Profiling With Telemetry: A New Development By Datapaq - News Item 01-Mar-02 Datapaq have developed a Kiln Tracker Telemetry system for monitoring temperature profiles in tunnel kilns. The system is able to accurately measure temperatures and correct firing problems, save energy and save money by optimising the process. Posted March 2002
