Abstract

In this study, physical and chemical characteristic of the treatment sludge obtained by
Bergama- Ovac1k treatment plant and the possibility to evaluate them in glass industry were
investigated, In this treatment plant, 277,882 tons of sludge is annually produced. The
chemical composition of the waste sludge's is determined by gravimetric method and it is
examined by X-Ray diffraction (XRD), X-Ray fluorescence (XRF) and Fourier Transform
Infrared Spectrophotometer (FT-IR) equipments. The chemical composition of the treatment
sludge showed that it is potential to be used in a glass industry to produce Borosilicate glass
and Flat glass with the addition of chemical substances. In order to examine the composition
of the samples, their analyses were made by (FT-IR) and (XRF) equipments,
