BIBLIOMETRIC REVIEW OF INDUSTRIAL WASTE RECYCLING IN THE PRODUCTION OF FACING BRICKS

In recent years, factories producing clay-based construction materials—such as blocks, tiles, and bricks—have increasingly utilized industrial waste fromvarious sources as part of their production processes. To explore the incorporation ofindustrial waste in the manufacture of ceramic bricks, a bibliometric analysis wasconducted using the Scopus database. This analysis offers a current overview of thesubject, with a particular focus on the environmental benefits and performanceenhancements of ceramic bricks that incorporate waste materials. The results showeda current panorama regarding the topic, especially about environmental gains and theimprovement in the performance of bricks compared to sight with incorporated waste.
