■ Low-Carbon Emission Ceramic Materials Recycling Process Design
▣ Aluminum Dross Recycling
• The main composition of stabilized aluminum dross is Al2O3, which can be used as a ceramic raw material for various applications
• Through composition and process design, stabilized aluminum dross could be made into refractory bricks, porous ceramics, or tiles
▣ Low-Carbon Emission Concrete
• A novel low-carbon emission concrete without clinker could be produced by using Industrial wastes under low temperature
• Combining artificial intelligence and theoretical calculations, the concrete product with excellent workability and mechanical properties meets the application specifications
■ Powder Surface Modification by Dry Coating Methods
• Various coating techniques such as atmospheric plasma, vacuum plasma, ALD, and PVD are adopted to modify the surfaces of ceramic powder
• Tailoring the surface of ceramic powders can enhance their water resistance, sinterability, or heteromaterial bonding properties as per specific requirements
■ Value-Added Product of Structural Ceramics
• Optimizing additives and sintering parameters to adjust the microstructure of ceramics, making them suitable for refractory, thermal insulation, or high-strength structural applications
• Promoting cross-industry collaboration and assisting conventional manufacturers in developing exquisite ceramics for cookware or cultural creative products
