Abstract

The composition of a ceramic mixture for production of brick using excess activated sludge from municipal sewage treatment works is developed. The properties of the samples obtained meet the requirements imposed on ceramic construction products. Assessment of the environmental safety of the suggested material was carried out and the efficiency of utilization of activated sludge in production of construction materials was demonstrated.
