Ennobling mixture of waste for full low-energy replacement of exhaustible natural resources in building materials output (Low resources Low energy)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2012, Date de fin: 30 juin 2014,
Background
Ceramic tile production consumes large quantities of non-renewable materials, including sand, feldspars, alumina, zirconia, mullite and clay.
