Geotechnical properties of biosolids stabilised with lime and cement

Geotechnical properties of biosolids stabilised with lime and cement

Biosolids are a mixture of water and organic material, which are a by-product from domestic and industrial sewage treatment processes. Biosolids for this research were obtained from a wastewater treatment plant located in west of Melbourne, Australia. As part of this research, an extensive suite of geotechnical tests…

Physical properties and compaction characteristics of ETP and WTP biosolids

Physical properties and compaction characteristics of ETP and WTP biosolids

In Australia, over 300,000 dry tonnes of biosolids are produced and millions of dollars expended for their management annually. Biosolids are the end product and the main solid component collected from the wastewater treatment process. In this study, some of the geotechnical properties of two biosolids samples from…
