Resumen

El artículo presenta los resultados de una investigación sobre las propiedades físicas y radiológicas de la cerámica de construcción a partir de residuos mineros. Los desechos de la minería se pueden emplear como áridos en la construcción de carreteras. Sin embargo, esto por sí solo no es suficiente para eliminar la totalidad de los residuos generados. Otro método prometedor para utilizar los desechos mineros es la producción de cerámica para la construcción (ladrillos). Sin embargo, algunas propiedades (p. ej., el contenido de radionucleidos naturales) de los desechos pueden limitar la posibilidad de dicho uso. En el ámbito de este trabajo se examinaron las propiedades de los ladrillos fabricados a partir de residuos mineros - esquistos recogidos de vertederos. Se ha demostrado que las propiedades de los ladrillos preparados así cumplen los criterios establecidos en diversas normas y documentos legales, y pueden utilizarse para la construcción.
