Abstract

On the basis of analysis of the component of the sludge from Lingzhuang waterworks and the technological process was studied which use the sludge for raw material to produce the sludge ceramsite. Through a lot of experiments, the several factors affecting the nature of ceramsite were developed and the technological parameters were confirmed. A performance test of the ceramsite shows that when the optimized temperature is 1130°C~1170 °C, the optimized baking time is 5 min, strength of tube pressure of the ceramsite is 8 MPa, bulk density of it is 1200 kg/m3compressive strength of concrete blocks is 40 MPa. So the products could meet the demand on high strength ceremsite. It is gained that the way of waterworks sludge for ceramsite is feasible and can bring certain economical profits, social profits and environmental profits. The products can be used widely to load bearing structure in construction profession.
