Abstract: The prosperous development of the ceramic industry has made tremendous contributions to China's economic construction. However, the ceramic industry is a high energy-consumption, high pollution industry, and its ecological and environmental problems have become increasingly apparent in recent years. A large amount of waste is generated during the preparation and use of ceramic materials. At present, most of the waste is disposed of by open dumping or landfilling. Therefore, it is important to understand the source of ceramic waste and its recycling method. This paper analyzes the source and harm of ceramic waste, the progress in waste reutilization and the problems in the process of recycling, with the hope to provide a reference for the study on the recycling of ceramic waste.
Key words: ceramic waste; waste hazard; polished waste; resource utilization
