Desempenho térmico de coberturas: Um estudo comparativo entre as telhas de material reciclado, de fibra e betume, fibrocimento e cerâmica

This study aims to compare the thermal performance of tiles made from recycled material (waste packaging cardboard with aluminized film) with the tiles of fiber and bitumen, fiber cement and red ceramic with the aim of verifying the suitability of tile to be used in hot and humid climate of low latitude. The samples were selected according to the availability from Natal - RN market, as they are sold to the consumers. The methodology was based on studies that used experimental apparatus composed of thermal chambers heated by banks of incandescent bulbs, to analyze the thermal performance of materials. The tiles in the study were submitted to analysis of thermal performance, thermophysical properties and absorptance, using chambers of thermal performance, measuring the thermophysical properties and portable spectrometer, respectively. Comparative analysis of thermal performance between two samples of the recycled material with dimple sizes and different amounts of aluminum were made, in order to verify, if these characteristics had some interference on the thermal performance of them; the results showed no significant performance differences between the samples. The data obtained in chambers of thermal performance and confirmed by statistical analysis, showed, that the tile of recycled material have similar thermal performance to the tile of fiber cement. In addition to these tests was carried out the automatic monitoring of a building covered with tiles of recycled material, to verify its thermal performance in a real situation. The results showed that recycled shingles must be used with technical criteria similar to those used for fiber cement tiles, with regard to the heat gain into the building. Within these criteria should be taken into account local characteristics, especially in regions with hot and humid climate, and its use must be associated, according to the literature, to elements of thermal insulation and use of passive techniques such as vented attics, ceilings and right foot higher

Estudo da Resistência Mecânica do Betão com Agregado Cerâmico Vermelho

Os sectores da construção e demolição de edifícios são responsáveis por um elevado volume de produção de resíduos. Estes resíduos são normalmente direcionados para aterros, que se encontram, neste momento, sobrelotados. Esta falta de capacidade de receção de resíduos tem como consequência imediata o aumento dos valores monetários associados ao depósito destes materiais excedentários. Com a elevada produção destes resíduos torna-se importante a sua reciclagem e reutilização. No caso da Engenharia Civil, uma grande produtora de resíduos, seria ainda mais interessante o seu reaproveitamento imediato na área. Nesta investigação, pretendeu-se avaliar o desempenho mecânico de betões com diferentes percentagens de agregados cerâmicos vermelhos. Essa investigação passou numa fase inicial pelo estado fresco do betão, de forma a analisar a sua trabalhabilidade. Na fase seguinte, analisou-se no estado endurecido, a resistência à compressão e resistência à tração por compressão diametral. Para concretização deste objetivo produziram-se três tipos de betões: um de referência (areia fina e brita fina), um betão com incorporação de agregados finos e grossos de cerâmica vermelha, juntamente com a areia fina e a brita fina, e o terceiro, um betão com a substituição total da areia fina por cerâmica fina. A realização desta investigação, demostrou que os betões com a incorporação de agregado cerâmico vermelho apresentam resultados de boa qualidade, sendo plausível a sua utilização em estruturas.

Este trabalho tem como objetivo principal, efetuar um estudo da viabilidade da utilização do rejeito de indústrias de produtos cerâmicos (cerâmica vermelha), como substitutivo do agregado graúdo de rocha, na produção de concreto com características estruturais. O rejeito foi coletado em quatro diferentes indústrias, localizadas no município de Gravataí, região metropolitana da Grande Porto Alegre-RS, sendo posteriormente britado, para a obtenção do agregado, objeto deste estudo. Foram analisadas as principais características do agregado produzido, distribuição granulométrica, massa unitária, massa específica e absorção de água. A seguir, foi feito um estudo para estabelecer o teor de argamassa a ser utilizado nas misturas, sendo efetuado também uma avaliação da resistência à compressão em função do teor de argamassa. Uma vez fixado o teor de argamassa, foram feitos ensaios a fim de estabelecer a correlação da resistência à compressão, com a relação água/cimento, gerando, desta forma, as chamadas curvas de Abrams, vindo a possibilitar o traçado dos gráficos de dosagem. O estudo baseou-se em determinações experimentais da resistência à compressão, da resistência à tração por compressão diametral, absorção de água, o desgaste e o módulo de deformação estática, utilizando-se em referência de comparação um concreto convencional, produzido com brita basáltica. Todas as misturas foram confeccionadas com cimento Portland pozolânico (tipo IV) classe 32, areia natural de rio e água potável. Os resultados obtidos mostraram ser tecnicamente viável, o emprego do rejeito cerâmico, como agregado graúdo, na produção de concreto.

Reúso do resíduo de fundição areia verde na produção de blocos cerâmicos

A areia de moldagem descartada é o principal resíduo da indústria de fundição. Esse resíduo é regenerado e recirculado no processo produtivo, até o momento que deve ser descartado. O emprego em materiais da construção civil tem sido indicado como a principal possibilidade de utilização segura das areias descartadas. Assim, o objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar, com base em estudos de laboratório e industriais, os aspectos tecnológicos e ambientais do reúso da areia de fundição na produção de blocos cerâmicos. A areia verde foi obtida de uma típica indústria de produção de ferro fundido, localizada no município de Erechim, RS, Brasil, que utiliza os processos de moldagem em areia verde e cold box. Em laboratório foram caracterizados as argilas e o resíduo através de análises químicas, mineralógicas e granulométricas. Foram avaliadas as características dos corpos-de-prova produzidos com adições de 0, 5, 10 e 20% do resíduo na massa cerâmica. Estudou-se também o efeito de diferentes temperaturas de queima. As propriedades avaliadas foram retração linear, absorção de água, resistência à flexão em quatro pontos, composição química, periculosidade (conforme a NBR 10004/2004) e emissões gasosas. Os estudos em planta industrial foram realizados na produção de lotes de blocos cerâmicos de 6 furos sem e com 10% de areia de fundição. . Avaliaram-se as propriedades geométricas, absorção de água, resistência à compressão, periculosidade (conforme a NBR 10004) e emissões gasosas. Segundo a NBR 10004, o resíduo é classificado como Não Perigosos – Classe II A - Não Inertes. Os estudos em laboratório demonstraram que os melhores resultados de resistência mecânica foram obtidos com dosagens de 5 e 10% de areia de fundição e temperatura de queima de 900oC. Através dos resultados da indústria comprovou-se a similaridade e conformidade dos blocos cerâmicos, de acordo com a norma vigente, produzidos com 10% de areia de fundição em termos de geometria, absorção de água e resistência mecânica, permitindo a sua comercialização. Esta dosagem de areia verde não elevou a concentração de poluentes nas emissões gasosas e contribuiu para a redução da emissão de CO. Por fim, pode-se concluir que a reciclagem do resíduo sólido de fundição - areia verde mostrou-se perfeitamente possível para fabricação de produtos de cerâmica vermelha para construção civil.

Influência do teor de calcário no comportamento físico, mecânico e microestrutural de cerâmicas estruturais

There are ores of clay in Piauí State that are used for red structural ceramics, which are naturally contaminated with calcareous vein. This is one thing that impedes its exploration in an adequate way, especially for tile production. The present work aims at verifying the influence of the calcareous contents in the technological structural ceramics area, seeking to determine a maximum permissible calcareous proportion/contents in the ceramic mass using the patterns of the local industry production. For the consecution of this paper, it was characterized the clay and calcareous material by FRX, DRX, TGA and DTA. It was also configurated by extrusion and burnt in the temperatures of 850°C, 900°C, 950°C and 1000°C pieces of the corpus with 0, 5, 10, 15 e 20% of calcareous proportion. After that, it was carried out technological samples of linear retraction, water absortion, apparent porosity, specific apparent mass and mechanic resistance. The results showed the possibility of using calcareous in the ceramic mass and in some cases the technological properties got better

Avaliação da conformidade de blocos cerâmicos para alvenaria de vedação produzidas na Região Integrada de Desenvolvimento da Grande Teresina

This research presents an outlook of the industries of red ceramic in the region next to the city of Teresina and an analysis of the ceramic products producted in this pole. The microregion investigated possesses 13 boroughs where were identified 32 ceramic in operation, being that 24 are located in Teresina, the ceramic region more important of Piauí, 1 is located in the city of Miguel Leão and 7 is located in Timon city that belongs to the state of Maranhão. The majority of ceramics are pulverized in these two cities, Teresina and Timon , responsible by a largely production independent of distance between fabric and consumer market. Furthermore, there is an artisanal production realized in other boroughs, mainly manual conformation bricks, where are producted diverse types of handicraft and ceramics utilitarian. The objective of this research is to evalue the conformity of ceramic blocks for brick of obstruction made by red ceramic industry of microregion at studying, verifying their pontentialities and adequacy in terms of production. In this research universe made a search of ceramic industries related to the Foundation CEPRO (Foundation Center of Research Social and Economic of Piauí). For the analysis of the ceramic products , were colected 60 crude bricks sample in three industries for their characterization, and 39 burned bricks sample for the Evaluation of Conformity. The results of the characterization made reached a accetptable standard in all formulations and temperature studied. The burned samples were applied to the geometric, physical and mechanical assays according to the ABNT standards (Brazilian Association of Technical Standards). The results of the physical assays showed that all the samples are at the same band recommended by standard. However, through the geometric assays just two industries did not present results according to the standard, due to lack of control in their process such as in their equipments. Taking into account the mechanical properties, only one industry investigated was not according to the standard

Influência da gipsita no surgimento de eflorescência em telhas cerâmicas

The red ceramic industry is recognized as of major importance in Piauí State. The State capital, Teresina, is the greatest producer of this material ( production about 18 million peaces), which is used mainly for masonry sealing blocks. One of the most frequent problems in this kind of products is the efflorescence. This work has the main objective of studying the influence of gypsum addition on non-glazed tiles, by using the local industry production standards. The raw materials were characterized by FRX, DRX, TGA, DTA and AD. Extruded test specimens were made with the addition of 1, 3 and 5% of gypsum in the ceramic paste, burned at 850oC, 950oC and 1050oC and submitted to further technological tests and microestrutural analysis by the scanning electron microscope. In order to accelerate the aging of bodies of evidence, they were immersed in successive water baths and posterior drying. The reference ceramic paste showed tendency to efflorescence formation after drying and consolidated efflorescence after burning, but no affecting the technological results

Avaliação da potencialidade dos resíduos de gesso de revestimento incorporados em formulações de massas cerâmicas

In building, during the implementation process of major or even minor works, there is a considerable waste of plaster in the steps of coating, making it is a negative factor because of the loss of these processes constructive remains incorporated into buildings, as component, whose final dimensions are higher than those projected. Another negative factor is the disposal of waste gypsum in inappropriate places, thus contributing to the degradation of environmental quality, due to the leaching of this waste and may trigger the formation of sulfuric acid. Therefore, based on this picture, processing and reuse of waste coating, combined with the ceramics industry, which is a strong potential in the reuse of certain types of waste, promote mutual benefits. Thus the overall objective of this work is to conduct a search with scientific and technological aspects, to determine the effect of the incorporation of the residue of plaster for coating, from the building, the formulation of bodies for red ceramic. The residue of plaster coating was collected and characterized. They were also selected raw materials of two ceramic poles of the state of Rio Grande do Norte and formulations have been made with the intention of obtaining those with the best physical and mechanical properties, the residue was added the percentage of 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% and 30%, in the best formulation of ceramic industry 1 and, according the properties analyses, 5%, 10% and 15% as the best results of ceramic industry 2. The samples were sintered at temperatures of 850 ºC, 950 °C and 1050 °C, the heating rate of 5 ºC / min with isotherm of two hours. They were submitted to testing technology, such as lineal shrinkage, water absorption, apparent porosity, apparent density and bending resistence. The residue incorporation best results in the formulations of mass in red ceramic, were observed between the temperatures of 850 ºC and 950 ºC, in those formulations that have illite clays and medium plastic in their composition, in the range of 0% to 15% residue incorporated

Estudo da adição do resíduo proveniente da extração de minério de ferro em argilas do Rio Grande do Norte

The mining industry is responsible for the generation of waste from their natural process of extraction. The mining impacts in urban areas are of special importance due to the high urban occupation, which are exacerbated due to the proximity of the mined areas and populated areas. Some solutions to wastedisposal have the potential to significantly reduce the environmental risks and liabilities, but represent higher costs in the stages of deployment and operation. The addition of mining waste as raw material in the development of commercial products reduces the environmental impacts, transforming the waste into a positive element in the generation of employment and income. This thesis studies the incorporation of waste iron ore in two clays, one from the ceramic industry of the City of Natal and the other from the ceramic industry of the Seridó Region, both in the State of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. Percentages of iron ore waste of 5%, 10% , 15%, 20%, 25% and 30% were used in the tested ceramic matrix. The two clays and the iron ore waste used as part of this investigation were characterized by X-ray diffraction tests, X-ray fluorescence tests, differential thermal analysis, thermogravimetric analysis and dilatometric analysis. The samples were sintered under temperatures of 850 °C, 950 °C and 1050°C at a heating rate of 5 °C/min with isotherms of two hours. The following tests were performed with the samples: linear shrinkage, water absorption, apparent porosity, apparent density, mass loss in fire and bending resistance in order to obtain their physical and mechanical properties. An amount of 5% of waste iron ore in the matrix clay at a temperature of 850 0C resulted in na increase of about 65% in the tensile strength of the clay samples from the Natal ceramic industry. A linear shrinkage of only 0.12% was observed for the samples, which indicates that the physical properties of the final product were not influenced by the addition of the waste

Estudo do efeito da adição da escória de aciaria no processamento e propriedades finais de telhas cerâmicas

This research presents an overview of the addition steelwork dust of ceramic shingles in order to contribute to the utilization use of such residue. The ceramic industry perspective in the Brazilian State of Piauí is quite promising. Unlike other productive sectors, the ceramic industry uses basically natural raw materials. Its final products are, in short, the result of transforming clay compounds. These raw materials are composed primarily of aluminum oxide, silicon, iron, sodium, magnesium, end calcium, among others. It was verified that steelwork dust is composed primarily of these same oxides, so that its incorporation in to structural ceramics is a very reasonable idea. Both clay and steelwork powder were characterized by AG, XRF, XRD, TGA and DTA. In addition, steelwork dust samples containing (0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 25%) were extruded and burned at 800°C, 850°C, 900°C and 950°C. Then t echnological tests of linear shrinkage, water uptake, apparent porosity, apparent density and flexural strengthwere carried at. The results showed the possibility of using steelwork powder in ceramic shingles until 15% significant improvement in physical and mechanical properties. This behavior shows the possibility of burning at temperatures lower than 850ºC, thus promoting a product final cost reduction

Efeito da adição de feldspato e/ou resíduo de caulin em formulações à base de argila ilítica

The red pottery industry in Piauí state is well developed and stands out at the national context for the technical quality of its products. The floor and wall tile industry, however, is little developed since the state has only one company that produces red clay-based ceramic tiles. This thesis aims at using the predominantly illitic basic mass of the above mentioned industry, with the addition of feldspar and/or kaolin residue in order to obtain products of higher technical quality. Kaolin residue consists basically of kaolinite, muscovite mica and quartz; the feldspar used was potassic. In this experiment, basic mass (MB) was used for experimental control and fifteen formulations codified as follows: F2, F4, F8, F16, F32, FR2, FR4, FR8, FR16, FR32, R2, R4, R8, R16 and R32. All raw materials were dry-milled, classified, formulated and then humidified to 10% water. Thereafter, test samples were produced by unixial pressing process in a rectangular steel matrix (60.0 x 20.0 x 5.0) mm3 at (25 MPa). They were fired at four temperatures: 1080°C, 1120°C, 1160°C, with a heating rate of 10°C/min during up to 10 min in an electric oven, and the last one in an industrial oven with a peak of 1140°C, aim ing to confirm the results found in laboratory and, finally, technological tests were performed: MEA, RL, AA, PA, TRF and PF. The results revealed that the residue under study can be considered a raw material with large potential in the industry of red clay-based ceramic tiles, since the results found both in laboratory and in the industry have shown that the test samples produced from the formulations with up to 4% feldspar and those produced with up to 8% feldspar and residue permitted a reduction in the water absorption rate and an increase in the mechanical resistance while those samples produced with up to 4% residue had an increase in the mechanical resistance when compared to those produced from the basic mass and that the formulation with 2% feldspar and residue presented the best technological properties, lowering the sintering temperature down to 1120°C
