Stabilization/solidification (S/S) of organic pollutants in contaminated soils and sludges is a promising technology, especially for wastes also containing heavy metals. A petroleum contaminated sludge was S/S using adsorbents and pozzolanic materials. The effectiveness of the treatment was evaluated based upon the Toxicity Characteristics Leaching Procedure (TCLP) total petroleum hydrocarbon content, oil and grease measurements and the ability to attain solidified compressive strength.
