Pemanfaatan Limbah Padat Pulp Grits dan Dregs dengan Penambahan Kaolin sebagai Bahan Pembuatan Keramik Konstruksi

Abstract

Research about ceramics from solid waste result from factory of pulp as raw material has been made by addition 0%, 5%, 10%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 40% and 50% (weight) of kaolin Satering temperatur at 1100°C and sample of ceramics has been made by dry pressing method and giving pressure up to 5000kg! The result of analysis obtained that value of compressive strength 23.9MPa-96.28MPa, porosity 37,40%-44.80% and fired shrinkage 1.55% -2.56% This result show that ceramics can be made Som solid waste resul factory of pulp by addition 25%-50% of kaolin
