                    [Summary] => Sludge or paper mill solid wastes used to be an environmental problem, particularly its disposal.


Now, the problem has been turned into an opportunity, thanks to a research breakthrough which showed that sludge can be manufactured into cement-bonded board (CBB) for construction purposes.


Sludge, or fiber clay, is the final solid waste or residue recovered after the treatment of paper mill effluent or wastewater.


The headway was chalked up by a research project undertaken at the Trust International Paper Corp. (TIPCO) in Mabalacat, Pampanga.

                    [Summary] => MABALACAT, Pampanga – The country’s low-cost housing industry stands to benefit considerably from a technology using cement-bonded boards (CBB) made from paper mill solid wastes (sludge) as construction materials.


The sludge-derived CBB is a cheap but sturdy material, it was found in a study done by researchers of the University of the Philippines Los Baños College of  Forestry and Natural Resources (UPLB-CFNR).
