Abstract	This paper presents an optimization formulation and a computational fluid dynamic study for a new proposal of a rustic oven that uses natural gas instead of highly polluting fuels currently used, addressing in this way a real environmental problem in the Mexican state of Guanajuato. In this study, first, a mixed integer linear programming problem was implemented to determine the optimal location of the burner in the rustic oven, and then the combustion process in the oven is modeled. The results show that the temperature is not homogeneously distributed inside the oven and similarly the reactive chemical species involved in the combustion process for all the possible positions of the burner in the oven. On the basis of these results, it was possible to propose an optimal location of the burner providing the best temperature profile to improve the process in the burning of bricks with a best combustion process and reducing the polluting emissions, and it can be stated that on the basis of the results and the advantages mainly related to the environmental issues, the proposed oven can be scaled to an industrial scale and may replace the currently operating ovens.
