Abstract

Due to the enormous land destruction and excessive consumption of resources, such as materials and energy in the clay brick manufacturing, it is important to study its overall sustainability, i.e., in terms of impact on the environment, services, and economy. Our Goals is to seek out innovative environmentally issues friendly opportunities in the manufacturing process and for the end use of clay brick and also to achieve sustainable aspect which lead to meet present need without compromising the ability of future generation's needs. Among these environmentally friendly opportunities in the manufacturing process, the use of waste Aluminium as a substance in the fabrication of clay bricks. Aluminium is the most consumed nonferrous metal in the world and is one of the most abundant materials in the Earth's crust of the advantages of aluminium is that recycling does not damage the structure of the metal and can be recycled indefinitely without detracting from its qualities Obtaining waste aluminium presents a series of advantages. The use of aluminium waste in brick-making accounts for most carbon emissions and pollutants like $SO_2$ and nitrous oxides. Switching brick-makers to technologies proven to be more energy efficient will reduce total $CO_2$ emissions and improve air quality.
