                    [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.
