Ecological Soil-Cement Bricks from Waste Materials
by Wilson Acchar and Sheyla K. J. Marques
This book proposes the use of waste from oil drilling and
sugar cane bagasse ash in the production of ecologically friendly soil-cement
bricks. It offers a viable alternative to the traditional bricks available on
the market, which use wood as fuel: manufacturing bricks from waste is less
costly and does not require the consumption of trees and forests. It also
proposes an alternative to the current discharging of the above-mentioned types
of waste in sanitary landfills, avoiding additional environmental problems.
