Abstract
The production of eco-bricks using industrial waste (fly ash) has gained attention as a solution to environmental pollution caused by traditional brick production. This paper presents a comprehensive review of research studies conducted on eco-bricks using fly ash. The review examines the properties, manufacturing process, and potential applications of eco-bricks. The paper also highlights the benefits of eco-bricks, including their affordability, strength, and environmental sustainability. This paper is focused on the utilization of waste materials, specifically fly ash and boiler ash, in the production of bricks. The main objective is to investigate the feasibility of incorporating these waste materials in brick-making and to evaluate the properties of the resulting bricks. The study compares the properties of fly ash bricks and clay bricks. The authors used various tests to evaluate the quality of the bricks, including a hardness test, soundness test, shape and size test, compressive strength test, water absorption test, and drop test. The results showed that the fly ash bricks had better properties compared to clay bricks. Fly ash bricks were harder, more sound, and had higher compressive strength. However, the water absorption of the fly ash bricks was higher than that of clay bricks. The authors found that as the weight of the waste materials added increased, the compressive strength of the bricks also increased gradually. However, the water absorption of the bricks also increased due to the presence of pores in the waste material. Overall, the study concludes that using waste materials in brick-making is a viable solution for waste disposal and a sustainable alternative to traditional clay bricks. The fly ash bricks produced in this study had comparable properties, if not better, than clay bricks. The authors recommend further research to optimize the production process and to evaluate the long-term durability of the bricks.
