Abstract: An artificial soil for growing vegetation includes a mixture of biosolids from a wastewater treatment plant, at least one of synthetic gypsum and a gypsum-depleted by-product, and a calcium compound from at least one of a lime kiln dust, a fluidized bed ash, and a ball mill lime. The calcium compound is present in an amount sufficient to heat the mixture to at least about 132° F. following mixing. The mixture may include at least one of silica and alumina. The artificial soil may include hydrated lime. The mixture may include at least about 1/9 by volume of biosolids and/or from about ? to about ½ by volume of the calcium compound. A method of manufacturing the artificial soil includes mixing biosolids with at least one of synthetic gypsum and a gypsum-depleted by-product and at least one of a lime kiln dust, a fluidized bed ash, and a ball mill lime.

Abstract: Compositions and methods for producing a manufactured product, a method for making a liquid absorbent, and processes for disposal of flammable liquids with a flue gas desulfurization by-product. The compositions for the manufactured products combine a binder and the by-product. The composition contains a greater percentage by weight of the by-product than the binder. The methods for producing manufactured products include dewatering the gypsum-depleted waste stream to reduce a water content, and forming the manufactured product. The method for making a liquid absorbent includes dewatering, granulating, drying, heating, and packaging a granulated gypsum-depleted composition as the liquid absorbent. The processes for disposal of flammable liquids include distributing a by-product into contact with flammable liquid, absorbing the liquid, transporting, and igniting the flammable liquid. The artificial soils are a combination of by-product and animal waste, human waste, or another bio-solid.
