“…Furthermore, the observed reduction percentages in LL, PL, and PI after adding 15% percentage of PWG for group A were 35%, 24%, and 43%, while for group B were 41%, 29%, and 49%, respectively, as shown in Table 4. The gradual reduction in Atterberg limits can be attributed to the larger content of non-reactive silica and smaller content of calcium oxide [39].…”

Bentonite clay is the soil that undergoes high volume changes (swelling) when its moisture content increases. The soil swelling may cause structural damage leading to damage to structural members like cracking in reinforced foundations and borders, curbs swelling, and eventually produces deformation indoors and on floors. In this study, Bentonite clay with expansive characteristics was used and mixed with various amounts of Pulverized waste glass PWG (0%, 5%, 10%, and 15%). Two types of PWG were prepared: fine glass (passing sieve No. 200) and coarse glass (passing sieve No. 2 mm). Laboratory experiments were performed on Bentonite specimens blended with different amounts of PWG. The results showed that the addition of 15% by Bentonite weight of 2 mm of PWG reduces the Atterberg limits considerably. Moreover, a noticeable reduction was observed in the Bentonite samples' free swell and swelling pressure after being treated with different amounts of PWG. The observed advantages of adding the PWG to Bentonite clay soil by decreasing the volume changes and enhancing the overall properties of Bentonite clay reflect the suitability of using PGW as a good soil stabilizer. Besides reducing the impact of waste glass on the environment due to its non-biodegradable nature.

“…The EC sludge obtained after the treatment of antibiotic wastewater was used for soil stabiliza- tion. To find out the characteristics of the BC soil before and after the stabilization, geotechnical lab tests such as unconfined compression (UCC) test, compaction test, Atterberg limit test, specific gravity, and swelling index test were conducted and the results were compared [22,32,33]. The EC process leads to a minimum amount of sludge production, so the admixture composition of sludge added to the BC soil is fixed to 0.2 wt %.…”

Electrocoagulation Technique for Cephalothin Sodium Removal with Effective Sludge Management

et al. 2021

The electrocoagulation technique is applied for the treatment of hazardous cephalothin sodium antibiotic wastewater. The interaction effects of the various parameters on the maximization of removal efficiency and minimization of energy consumption are evaluated through multivariable optimization. The disposal of sludge is effectively performed by soil stabilization. Scanning electron microscopy analysis of soil fused with sludge shows an ordered arrangement with reduced void space. The improvement of soil properties is confirmed by the change in soil expansiveness from low to moderate region and by an increase in compressive strength.

“…Soil stabilization has emerged as an important part of ground improvement technique. The efficiency of additives as physical and chemical stabilizers have been well proven by various past researches [20,29] due to their ability to modify the soil at microstructural level. The initial methods of chemical stabilization included blending of cement [28] or lime [2][3][15][16][17] or both [23,37] with the expansive clays which are now partially or fully replaced by various agricultural and industrial by-products due to high industrial demands and increasing cost of conventional stabilizers.…”

Expansive clays are one of the most widely found soil type across the globe known for their low strength behavior. A number of studies have been conducted in the past few decades to stabilize such soils using various additives. The traditional stabilizers such as cement and lime not only prove quite costly due to their high industrial demands but also result in exhaustion of the available natural resources. This study is based on admixture of a waste originating from leather industry known as limed leather waste which can be utilized as a potential stabilizer and strength enhancer for expansive clays at the construction sites as a replacement to conventional additives. The utilization of the waste besides treating the problematic soil will also solve the dumping issue of the waste itself and will reduce the environmental hazards. It is found from the study that the waste when used in the ash form is capable of improving the compaction and strength characteristics of the expansive soil substantially. A comprehensive increase in soil strength is also achieved through curing. The SEM results are used to explain the microstructural changes in the soil and agglomeration and generation of silicate gel compounds responsible for increase in strength of the soil-ash mixture.
