Manufacturing of tiles from sawdust

Abstract

The utilization of sawdust in manufacturing tiles presents a sustainable solution to waste management in the woodworking industry. This study explores the feasibility and environmental benefits of incorporating sawdust into tile production processes. Various techniques and formulations for blending sawdust with traditional tile materials are reviewed, highlighting their impact on tile properties such as strength, durability, and aesthetics. The economic viability and market potential of sawdust-based tiles are also discussed, emphasizing their role in promoting circular economy principles and reducing carbon footprint. Finally, future research directions and challenges in scaling up production are identified to foster innovation in sustainable building materials.
