“…In addition, the transport of zinc applied with the sewage sludge to the plant and its concentration in the plant may be higher due to the effect of the high organic matter in the sewage sludge regulating the physico-chemical properties of the soils. Researches have shown that sewage sludge added to soils can increase vegetative production due to the nutrients it contains (Garvanska 2000;Antonkiewicz et al 2020;Abdoli 2022) and that metals chelated with various organic chelates are taken by plants in larger amounts and accumulate more metals from the soil environment (Lombi et al 2001;Boye 2002;Praburaman et al 2020;Pandey et al 2022). However, Hamlin & Barker (2002) found that N fertilizers applied to hyperaccumulator plants increased the phytoextraction potential of Zn.…”

In this study, the possibilities of removing the pollution caused by Zn, which is given to the loamy soil together with sewage sludge and without sewage sludge at increasing levels (0, 75, 150, 300, 600 and 1200 mg kg-1), has been researched with certain hyperaccumulator plants such as Brassica juncea, Raphanus sativus and Silene vulgaris grown in Bafra ecological conditions. During the trial established according to the randomized block experimental design, plant removed the most Zn among the hyperaccumulator plants topic of the study was determined, and also labile Zn soil fractions (water soluble, organic bound, changeable) were defined. In order to clean Zn added to the soil at increasing levels with or without sewage sludge by using phytoremediation technology, S. vulgaris was found to remove the highest amount of Zn in the soil by producing the greatest amount of biomass in the ecological conditions of the region compared to B. Juncea and R. Sativus other hyperaccumulator plants grown in the plots. Significant differences were determined in the development of plants and Zn removal between the sludge treated and untreated plots. Based on the results obtained, it can be said that S. vulgaris may be the most suitable hyperaccumulator plant in the ecological conditions of the region, in addition when there is 300 mg kg-1 Zn in the soil, in order to clean the land by using phytoremediation technology with S.vulgaris, approximately 3 vegetation periods are required and in case of sewage sludge application and 12 vegetation periods are required without sewage sludge application.

As waste production increases and resources become limited, sewage sludge presents a valuable resource with potential beyond traditional land use and incineration. This review emphasizes exploring innovative non-fertilizer applications of sewage sludges and advocates for viewing wastewater treatment plants as sources of valuable feedstock and carbon sequestration. Innovative uses include integrating sewage sludge into construction materials such as asphalt pavements, geopolymer, cementitious composites, and masonry blocks. These methods not only immobilize heavy metals and mitigate environmental hazards but also support carbon sequestration, contrasting with incineration and land application methods that release carbon into the atmosphere. The review also addresses emerging technologies like bio-adhesives, bio-binders for asphalt, hydrogels, bioplastics, and corrosion inhibitors. It highlights the recovery of valuable materials from sewage sludge, including phosphorus, oils, metals, cellulose, and polyhydroxyalkanoates as well as enzyme production. By focusing on these non-fertilizer applications, this review presents a compelling case for re-envisioning wastewater treatment plants as sources of valuable feedstock and carbon sequestration, supporting global efforts to manage waste effectively and enhance sustainability.
