he provided diagram illustrates process of manufacturing bricks from raw materials and further shows how they are processed. Overall, there are 7 main stages, beginning with the clay extraction and ending with the delivery of the final product. Firstly, heavy machinery like diggers are used to extract naturally occurring clay in quarries. Then, extracted materials are filtered through a metal grid to break them into smaller, more even by size particles. Sand and water are later added to form a uniform mixture than can be conveniently cut or moulded. To remove excess water, bricks are put into drying ovens for 1 or 2 days. Then, to enhance hardness and durability of the product, it is transported to industrial kilns, that have various stages of drying. Firstly, to completely dry the product, it is exposed to moderate temperatures of 200-980 degrees. In the next stage, temperatures reach 1300 degrees Celsius, improving structural abilities of clay. Such high temperatures are necessary to reinforce the inner structure of the material. In the last stage of drying, bricks are put into cooling chambers for several days. Finally, product is packaged in boxes and thereafter sent for delivery. Bricks manufacturing is a multi step, technologically advanced process, crucial for any building purposes

The diagram illustrates the multitude of steps olive oil undergoes before being produced. Overall, there are 7 steps olive oil goes through before being packaged then released into the marketplace. The first station is far from the industrial environment and consist on picking the olives from their trees. Second step is to rinse the product with cold water before pushing it in a belt, directly relied to a smashing machine. Thanks to the previous appliance, the olive paste is isolated from the olive stones, which are undesirable for olive oil manufacturing. Afterwards, the pressing moment comes. Indeed, the latter is put in a bag with holes so it can be crushed with a convenient pressing machine. The mixture is then crafted to separate the oil from the water. Finally comes the storage of the final produce before selling it. To conclude, we notice according to the figure that olive oil manufacture requires plenty of work -7seven steps in total - and specific knowledge.
