| Popis: | Geopolymerization is a new method for treating water treatment residue (WTR) from water purification plants to reduce the amount of stored land in urban areas. Polymeric bond formation depends on the curing conditions. In this study, the curing conditions suitable for subsequent treatment to save energy consumption and production costs in the future application were investigated. The WTR had a high aluminosilicate content with low alkaline activity, so fly ash (FA) was added to FA and WTR mixtures in the ratio of 40 and 60 weight percent (% in wt.), respectively. The moisture content of the mixtures ranged in 12–15%, suitable for semi-dry pressing to form pellets. After this formation, the geopolymer samples were cured under different conditions (room temperature, microwave oven, in dryer at 110°C, and in autoclave with hydrothermal condition). The experimental results showed that the hydrothermal samples had better properties, such as pH |
