Abstract:

Sewage sludge is a by?product of wastewater treatment,which is increased with the more sewage treatment capacity and rate.However,the scale and level of sludge treatment and disposal are difficult to match with the level of sewage treatment.Sludge treatment focuses on harmless disposal at present,and the resource utilization rate is insufficient.The composition of sewage sludge was compared with raw materials of ceramsite.The feasibility,basic process and conditions of preparation ceramsite from sewage sludge were introduced and analyzed.And the research and application of ceramsite or modified ceramsite from sewage sludge were comprehensively discussed,reviewed and prospected.The results showed that because the sludge contained a large amount of organic matter,as well as inorganic components such as silicon and aluminum,and the proportion of each component was appropriate,it could be prepared into ceramsite at high temperature,which could be used as light aggregate,cultivation matrix or water treatment filter material for subsequent use.Because sludge ceramsite had certain adsorption capacity,it could be modified to strengthen its adsorption performance.The future research direction of sludge ceramsite was to optimize the strength of sludge ceramsite and its adsorption of specific pollutants from three aspects:raw material configuration,preparation conditions and functional modification.

Key words: sewage sludge, ceramsite, application, modification, adsorbent
