Eficiência energética na fabricação de placas cerãmicas mediante a utilização de óleo térmico
(APICER -(Associação Portuguesa das Indústrias de Cerâmica e de Cristalaria), 2014)
O processo de fabricação de placas cerâmicas consome uma grande quantidade de energia, maioritariamente energia térmica, que se obtém da combustão de gás natural. O aumento do custo deste combustível, assim como a situação ...
Effect of particle size distribution on the sinter-crystallisation kinetics of a SiO2-Al2O3-CaO-MgO-SrO glass-ceramic glaze
(Elsevier, 2020-05-20)
Sinter-crystallisation kinetics of a glaze with an average particle size of 9.6µm, 4.0µm and 0.65µm, which devitrified anorthoclase and diopside, were studied by non-isothermal techniques. It was confirmed that the ...

(2015-07-03)
This paper analyses how environmental issues have affected and are continuing to affect the evolution of European manufacturing industries based on the example of the Spanish Ceramic Tile Industry (SCTI).1 The Ceramic Tile ...
Reduction of CO2-emissions in ceramic tiles manufacture by combining energy-saving measures
(German Ceramic Society, 2014)
Ceramic tile manufacture requires a great quantity of energy, mainly in the form of heat.
The heat is principally used in the kilns and dryers, and it is obtained by natural gas
combustion.
The increasing cost ...

Preparation of feedstocks from nano/submicron-sized TiO2 particles to obtain photocatalytic coatings by atmospheric plasma spraying
(Elsevier, 2014-12)
Atmospheric plasma spraying (APS) has been proved useful in obtaining TiO2 coatings with effective photocatalytic activity. However, the influence of feedstock characteristics on photocatalytic activity has hardly been ...
Effect of particle size on processing of bioactive glass powder for atmospheric plasma spraying
(Elsevier, 2016)
The work addresses the effect of the particle size of a bioactive glass feedstock on the processing and microstructure of the resulting coatings obtained by atmospheric plasma spraying (APS). It was observed that the ...
Application of plasma-sprayed TiO2 coatings for industrial (tannery) wastewater treatment
(Elsevier, 2015-12)
Fine-structured photocatalytic TiO2 coatings were deposited by atmospheric plasma spraying (APS) on austenitic stainless steel coupons. One commercial spray-dried nanostructured TiO2 powder and five spray-dried powders ...
