Abstract

Within the Moroccan natural resources valorization scheme, new porous ceramics have been prepared by mixing abundant Moroccan clay minerals and oil shales. We aim at studying the use of Moroccan oil shale as a porogen for ceramic membrane manufacturing and investigating the effect of oil shale loading on the microstructure and mechanical properties of clay based porous ceramic supports prepared by uniaxial compaction.
