Contents:
Introduction -- Methodology -- Sewage sludge ash production -- Sewage sludge ash characteristics -- Concrete-related applications -- Ceramic applications -- Geotechnical applications -- Road pavements -- Environmental assessment, case studies and standards / Epilogue.
Summary: This book is part of a series of five, aims to promote the use of sustainable construction materials. It is different from the norm, with its uniqueness lying in the development of a data matrix sourced from over 600 publications and contributed by 1107 authors from 442 institutions in 48 countries from 1970 to 2016, all focusing on the subject of sewage sludge ash as a construction material, and systematically analyzing, evaluating, and modeling the information for use in cement, concrete, ceramics, geotechnics, and road pavement applications. Related environmental issues, case studies, and standards are also discussed. The book helps users avoid repetitive research and save valuable resources, giving them more latitude to explore new research to progress the use of sustainable construction materials.
