Ceramics recycling is the academic field and applied science concerned with the investigation, development, and implementation of processes for recovering, reprocessing, and reusing waste ceramic materials and products. It encompasses the scientific study of ceramic waste streams, the engineering of technologies for their collection, sorting, size reduction, and transformation, and the evaluation of methods for incorporating recycled content into new ceramic formulations or alternative applications. This field is significant for addressing resource depletion, reducing landfill volume, mitigating the environmental impact of ceramic production, and advancing circular economy principles within the materials sector.
