@article{SchumacherLightweightAC, title={Lightweight aggregate concrete with an open structure and a porous matrix with an improved ratio of compressive strength to dry density}, author={Katrin Schumacher and Nils Sa{\ss}mannshausen and Christian Pritzel and Reinhard Trettin}, journal={Construction and Building Materials}, Utilization of sewage sludge in the manufacture of ,To obtain a lightweight aggregate as the basic material, a clay from the Budy Mszczonowskie deposit was used as well as sewage sludge. Both starting materials were dried at 105 °C and then milled in a ball mill to a fraction with a diameter of <0.5 mm. Then, the sewage sludge in the amount of 10 wt.% (i.e., 10 g) was added to the clay in Study on Characteristics of Lightweight Aggregate ,The lightweight aggregate is light due to the cellular or high internal porous microstructure, which gives this type of aggregate a low density. The lightweight aggregate is lighter due to the presence of air voids, which gives this type of aggregate a low density [9]. 3.2 Water absorption Water absorption of the LBA is 9.7%.
