Red Ceramic with Addition of Petroleum Coke

Article Preview

Abstract:

The aim of this work was of evaluate the introduction of petroleum coke in a red ceramic. Petroleum coke is a solid fossil fuel, petroleum derivative, of black color and granular form approximately, obtaining as a byproduct from distillation of petroleum, by the process called "cracking" heat. This product represents from 5% to 10% of the total oil in the refinery. With percentage of 0%, 0.5%, 1% and 1.5% coke added into clay were obtained ceramic pieces. After drying at 110°C and firing at 750°C, 800°C and 850°C, were obtained the mechanical and physical properties and the Weibull distribution, used to evaluate the failure probability of the material. The results show the influence of petroleum coke in ceramics, suggesting introduce 1% of coke at 800oC, when the Weibull modulus reaches value 9 (m=9).
