Abstract
This research aims to study the effect of sludge from water treatment plants on the properties of pottery such as density, compressive strength, water absorption, and porosity.The composition of sludge from water treatment plants added to the clay varies, at percentages of 0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, and 50%, controlled by weight. The results showed that the composition of 10% by weight of sludge from the water treatment plant yields the ultimate pottery properties, with 12.63 MPa of compressive strength, 1.85 g/cm3 of density, 14.24% of water absorption, and 26.34% of porosity. © (2014) Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.
