Abstract

The triboeconomics of ceramic manufacturing is based on the contact interactions in the line: raw material—technology—product—application. The growing share of recycled and synthetic raw materials in comparison to natural raw materials closes the production cycle. The calcinated at 1000 °C (1 h) water granulated blast-furnace slag is comparable to calumite, grinded glost-fired faience waste to the SLS glass (soda-lime-silica glass), but the ceramic tiles with calcinated water granulated blast-furnace slag to the Life Ceram tiles. The synthetic diopside is a suitable component mass for speedy firing.
