RESUMO

Amongst the global problems that most rouse studies and solutions before the environment crisis arise the ones concerning the destination of waste and the sewage system. The sustainable development requires the creation of solutions aiming the reduction or the elimination of the impacts on the environment. The waste may become an Engineering solution. The aim of this work is to unite two problems and find a unique solution that answers both to the environmental question and to the soil engineering one. Considering the present situation of environmental management and rational use of substance, one of the priorities nowadays is the reduction of the industrial waste. The reduction of such waste is possible, although its complete elimination is not and, therefore, comes the necessity of transforming this waste into something useful. The use of solid wastes on the soil treatment (ABNT NBR 5776) is the focus of this work, which has the purpose of demonstrating the rational use of the wastes related to the necessity of their reutilization, the ideal tenor of the wastes for a better performance and low cost, accomplishing the improvement of the physical characteristics and the mechanic performance of the soil of West ParanÃ. The proposed material for this work is the dry sewage sludge (Class I of ABNT NBR 10004). Sewage sludge can be defined as every solid waste extracted during the treatment of residual water to the elimination in water collect. In order to determine the relation waste/ideal soil, the in natura soil was added with waste in four parts of 0%, 8%, 17,5%, 28,5% and 43%. So as to carry out the experiences the samples of added soil and in natura soil were prepared according to the regulations of ABNT NBR 6457. The experiences of the soilâs characterization and performance were accomplished under ABNT rules. After the addition process there was a considerable increase on the maximum compactation level and an excessive decrease on the empty spaces of the soil, generating a hardness of the compounds due to the addition of burned sewage sludge, improving considerably the stabilization and the mechanic resistance of the soil.
