Abstract
Typha australis is a low-carbon, invasive plant in the Senegal River valley, making access difficult for fishermen. Due to its widespread availability in the country, this article explores its potential by combining it with clay to study its influence on the thermal properties of the clay material. Thermal characterisations using hot plate and asymmetric hot wire methods in transient conditions were carried out to evaluate the contribution of typha fiber to the clay material.
