I am just wondering can I use this powdered clay to build a clay oven?
I will be mixing it with water and sand and I am just wondering will it dry ok with a combination of air drying... and lighting a fire inside the oven dome....
If not could you recommend me a powdered clay for use in making a clay pizza oven.
Thanks,
Christina

Its not ideal to be honest, we have a ready made clay body for making pizza ovens, here is a link:

I'd like to know if this powdered clay can be used to make slip for dipping greenware. If used as slip on a stoneware body how high can it be fired? Thanks!

This powdered body is quite coarse so while you could make a slip from it but it would be quite textured unless you put through a fine sieve.
It should work on most stoneware clay bodies depending on shrinkage, worse case you may experience some cracking.
