[Stoves] [DKIM] Re: ***SPAM*** Sawdust, rice husks, coffee husks mixed with clay to make bricks with insulation

[Willem Boers]

Dear Ashok et al, 

 

Is there any mass production of bricks where they use such a mixture, is there any lab testing done on this: ex-factory quality and quality on-site for use with cook stoves? What about complexity to make it and cost? Any pros and cons? 

 

With regards,

 

Willem

Dear Kevin

Rice Husk, by itself, is a very good insulation. Just pack it in the cavity.

To make bricks, replace cementitious material upto 40% by weight by rice husk ash which will provide strength as well as waterproofing qualities.

Or make a brick and just coat it with rice husk ash and a little cement for water proofing.

Regards

Ashok

We want to do this with our brick cookstove?  Does anyone have experiences they can share?

 

Thanks,

Kevin McLean
