Use of enameling wastewater in the wet milling process for ‘monoporosa’ tile composition

Water is becoming scarce for ceramic processing, even in certain regions of Brazil. In the wet milling process, the ceramic slips are formed by 30 wt% water to achieve the adequate density and viscosity for an efficient milling. Wastewater from other ceramic processes, as enameling, could be used fo...

Use of enameling wastewater in the wet milling process for ‘monoporosa’ tile composition
description Water is becoming scarce for ceramic processing, even in certain regions of Brazil. In the wet milling process, the ceramic slips are formed by 30 wt% water to achieve the adequate density and viscosity for an efficient milling. Wastewater from other ceramic processes, as enameling, could be used for milling. The aim of this work was the study of the milling process of a ceramic tile composition using wastewater without treatment in place of clean water. The raw materials forming the ‘monoporosa’ composition and the wastewater were characterized (XRF, particle size) as well as the monoporosa composition (STD) (XRD, residue at #325 ASTM sieve, flow time viscosity, density).
