    This document discusses two small-scale industries: brick kilns and edible oil refining. It outlines the key inputs, processes, products, and environmental impacts of brick kiln production. These include using clay, moulding, drying, and baking bricks which can damage the environment through smoke, landscape damage, and flooding. The document suggests solutions like using cleaner fuels, air drying shelters, and machinery to reduce these impacts. It also briefly outlines the oil refining process of extracting, heating, adding water and fragrances to produce edible oil.
