Tile production using wastes from mining industry of the mining District Pachuca and Real del Monte Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • This work is related with the production of tiles using wastes from mining and metallurgical industry of Hidalgo State, as raw material. These wastes present a majority particle size (60%25), minor than 53 m (mesh 270, in Tyler Series) with the following composition; 70.01%25 wt. of SiO 2, 12.82%25 wt. of Al 2O 3, 3.80%25 wt. of Fe, 0.70%25 wt. of Mn, 3.98%25 wt. of K 2O, 3.34%25 wt. of CaO, 2.50%25 wt. of Na 2O, 0.04%25 wt. of Zn, 0.026%25 wt. of Pb, 56 grams per ton of Ag and 0.6 grams per ton of Au. In this work, the partial results and experimental conditions for the preparation of some composites to produce tiles are shown. The composite that offers the best results in productions of tiles was that with 66.67%25 wt. of mining waste, 26.67%25 wt. of red mud and 6.67%25 wt. of black mud.
