Recently, Stabilization/Solidification (S/S) method has been focusing on the usage of agricultural waste as an alternative towards environmental friendly and low cost material to substitute cement. The aim of this study is to determine the leachability of lead contaminated soil by using sugarcane bagasse as partial replacement of cement in S/S method. In this study, different percentages (2.5%, 5% and 7.5%) of treated and untreated sugarcane bagasse have been utilized as a partial replacement to cement. Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) and Synthetic Precipitation Leaching Procedure (SPLP) have been conducted to determine the leachability of lead contaminated soil. The results indicate that with 7.5% of treated sugarcane bagasse replacement in cement resulted significant reduction of lead contaminant in soil up to 99 % after 28 days. As a conclusion, treated sugarcane bagasse could be an alternative low cost material in the S/S method as it can significantly reduce the remediation cost normally incurred by the usage of cement. |
