- 10. 3)Drying : Wet unit bricks will be drying in space or room with control temperature to make sure the bricks in complete dry. 10 Brick was compile before bring to the kiln
- 11. 4)Firing : Dry bricks, was compile in kiln to firing process with 600o C. This is for burn the carbon and sulfur that have remain. After that, temperature will increase to 900o C to get a vetrification process. Normally, vitrification process occurred around 800o C. Bricks become hard/strong after vitrification process. 11
