Abstract
Brick manufacturing is a major global industry employing millions of workers, yet it remains heavily reliant on outdated, polluting technologies. This study aims to categorize the brick kilns according to the way each of them functions. Also, it focuses on the fuel used and its properties. Another goal of the current research is to bring out the effects brick industry has on the environment and the people who work and live near the brick kilns. Conclusively, the current study underscores the urgent necessity for improvement and for the adoption of the strategies outlined to guide the brick manufacturing field toward a more sustainable future.
