Abstract In this study, the feasibility of producing eco-friendly bricks by using
geopolymer technology and a waste grinding wheel (WGW) from the grinding
wheel industries was investigated. Nowadays, in order to meet industrial needs,
for instance, in Taiwan, approximately 500,000 grinding wheels are used
annually. That is, a large number of “waste” grinding wheels are produced.
Furthermore, few studies have been conducted on the use of WGWs as raw materials in geopolymer applications. The use of geopolymer technology to form
bricks can avoid the utilization of clay and cement and even prevent the use of
