Descripción: | Faced with the need to generate strategies for the use of organic solid waste in small spaces that mitigate their pollution to the environment, this research evaluated the feasibility of using organic waste in the production of non-structural ecological bricks, by analyzing the behavior of physicochemical parameters under different mixtures of organic solid waste. In the first stage of the investigation, six were mixed in aerobic and anaerobic composting processes, of which the two that took the longest time in the biodegradation process with the pH established by the regulations were selected. In the next phase, the two selected mixtures were encapsulated inside the earthen bricks and analyzed for 45 days, after which the mixture with the lowest mass loss was selected to be re-encapsulated in the brick for three months. The resulting biomass was subjected to physicochemical analysis finding that the use of organic solid waste encapsulated in non‑structural bricks is viable. |
