This conference is the eleventh in the series of international conferences that provides a global forum for information exchange on the latest emerging ceramic technologies. Our research activities in the field of glass-ceramics from combination of problematic wastes will be presented. The research is a continuation of our previous work on composite glass-ceramics from industrial residues [1].
