Ceramic Waste Recycling

Managing industrial waste is one of today's most important global challenges. Non-biodegradable waste is particularly challenging to recycle. Ceramic waste belongs to this group. Due to ceramics' very long biodegradation time (up to 4,000 years) and the significant proportion of waste produced by the ceramic industry, recycling ceramic waste has become a priority as a result of increasing environmental awareness.

Ceramic waste must be crushed before it can be reused. Although the initial investment and energy consumption required for crushing and grinding the waste is high, there are examples of economically viable recycling plants. MEKA offers a highly efficient technology with a wide portfolio of machines that provides economic, technological and environmental advantages, with the ultimate goal of reducing the cost of raw materials and the use of chamotte in the mix without lengthening grinding cycles.

Applications

MEKA has developed various types of plants for the recovery of the following types of ceramic waste:
  • Wastes emerging from different stages of the production process, including forming, firing, glazing, grinding and polishing,
  • Wastes coming from the disposal of broken ceramic pieces,
  • Discarded wastes from sanitary ware industry, deemed inappropriate for sale, the defects in rejected wares include imperfect shapes, cracks, and visual damage to the glaze,
