- Abstract
In Malaysia, the current practise in treatment of petroleum sludge (PS) is by using incineration and the ash produce required further treatment for safely disposal into landfill. This process require high cost and treatment of raw sludge by using solidification/stabilization method was introduce. In this study, ordinary Portland cement was used as binder. This study focuses on physical properties (compressive strength, density test and water absorption) of S/S matrices and leaching behaviour (SPLP). Results shows adds up to of 30% PS gives results on strength which comply with minimum landfill dispose limit. Correlation between strength and density in regression coefficient of 80.99% and correlation between strength and water absorption shows strong regression of 93.12%. Leaching behaviours on 28th day of curing showed the similar trend as on 7th day of curing. All heavy metals concentration in leaching test were below the USEPA standard except for Nickel and Chromium. Even though these two metals were exceeded the standard, Portland cement was capable to encapsulate Ni and Cr in mixture and reduce the concentration of 87% and 69% (PS 40%), respectively, compare to concentration in raw sludge. As, conclusion S/S method can be an alternative disposal method for raw sludge.
