The invention relates to a steamed ecological water permeable environmentally friendly brick produced by waste ceramic residues and a manufacturing method thereof. The manufacturing method is characterized by comprising the following steps of: adding a lower brick material obtained by uniformly mixing waste ceramic residue powder, waste glass powder, garbage clinker powder, portland cement, calcium oxide, calcium sulfate, sodium chloride, a rosin hot polymer, calcium sulfonate, sodium aluminate and water to a double-axis mixing stirrer to stir into a wet state, and then vibrating, extruding and molding into a lower brick of the ecological water permeable environmentally friendly brick; uniformly coating a layer of fine material of an upper brick material obtained by uniformly mixing waste ceramic fragment powder, bentonite, talcum powder and water on the upper part of the lower brick by using a secondary spreader to manufacture a water permeable environmentally friendly brick blank under the pressure of 25-30Mpa; maintaining with steam; heating at constant temperature; and naturally cooling to manufacture the steamed ecological water permeable environmentally friendly brick product of the waste ceramic residues. The raw materials of the invention also can be manufactured into vegetation bricks of different specifications. The product has certain water permeability, air permeability and water retentivity, also has various functions of cooling, reducing noise, regulating the climate, eliminating the heat island effect of a city, improving the air quality, maintaining the surface water circulation, and the like and the advantages of high product strength, no pollution, low cost and good benefit and conforms to the requirements on saving energy, reducing emission, protecting environment and developing low-carbon economy.
