Abstract
Diatomacea land is a material formed mainly by siliceous skeletons of microscopic aquatic algae, sedimented in the tertiary and quaternary period. The diatomite, another name given to this material is used as an abrasive, filter material, inert ingredient of explosives or as insulating of boilers and pipes. As filter material, is employed primarily in the brewing and wine industry, where after filtering it becomes a waste of the process. In this work the diatomite land, waste from a brewing industry, was characterized using X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Infrared Spectroscopy with Fourier transform (FTIR), Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA) and thermogravimetric analysis (TG), and Electronic Microscopy of Transmission (MET). Considering the potential use of this industrial waste, for example, as a cementing material, the chemical and thermal effect on the microstructure of diatomacea land is studied.
