Introduction
Crockery ware are being manufactured in earthenware, stoneware, vitreous china and bone china. This project profile is prepared for the manufacture of tableware, which comprises crockery items and some other articles made of stoneware. Under the group of tableware cups, saucers, plates, bowls, tea sets, dinner, sets jars, barnels etc. are covered. They are impermeable to most of the liquids and water absorption is less than 0.5%. Ceramic crockery ware have their own place in the field of kitchenware due to their outstanding properties over melamine and stainless steel wares, as these are more hygienic, easily cleanable, heat resistant etc. The main uses of these items are in houses, railway, defence, canteens, restaurants, hotels etc.
Market Potential
Stoneware tableware and other items are used in houses, hotels, restaurants, tea stalls, railway canteens, defence canteens etc. The installed capacity of the industry located mostly in the Northern parts of the country is estimated around 1,40,000 M.T per annum. However, in the southern region, production of these product is less than the demand. On the national level demand of the product is greater than the supply. This product has good scope in international markets, mainly in Gulf and South African Countries. It is estimated that demand of this item is increasing steadily at the rate of 10% per annum. The demand which was subdued in the past 3-4 years due to the use of substitute items made of melamine and steel have again shifted to ceramic rockery. There is a good scope for encouraging new units in this line of activity especially in the southern part of the country.
Basis and Presumptions
Technical Aspects
Process of Manufacture
The raw materials like quartz, felspar, ball clay, fire clay etc. are charged in ball mill in desired proportion with 30- 40% water and ground to the fineness of 100-120 No. mesh. China clay and other plastic clays which are white burning are blunged in blunger with 30- 40% water. The slurry from ball mill and blunger is mixed and passed through fine mesh and electromagnet in order to remove the iron particles from the slurry. It is mixed properly in agitator tank from where it is passed through filter press for dewatering to make filter cakes. These cakes are fed into de-airing pug mill to extrude the compact body. While the round shaped articles are made by this body on Jigger and Jolly, other shapes are made by slip casting process. For casting,slip is made and poured into the moulds of plaster of paris. The articles are finished, glazed, and fired at the temperature of 1250- 1280ºC. Tunnel Kiln is proposed for firing in this project profile. Use of D.D Kilns and shuttle Kilns is also in practice but not economical. The articles taken out from the kiln are sorted and packed for selling.
Quality Control and Standards
The Bureau of Indian Standards has formulated and published IS 11475:1985 Stoneware Dinnerware for carrying out
various tests and control of the quality of the product.

Pollution Control
For the purpose of pollution control, it is advisable to provide dust collecting system and necessary retrofitting with the kiln to reduce waste gas pollution. The unit may seek NOC from the concerned authority.
Energy Conservation
Crockery stoneware industry needs energy conservation in fuel as well as electricity. Ceramic fiber lined tunnel Kiln is proposed in the project profile which conserves around 30-35% fuel when compared with conventional DD Kiln.
