The consumption of natural sand taken from the river was too high due to its excessive use in concrete. The demands for this natural sand were increasing from time to time, especially on developing countries, for instance, Malaysia. Thus, the construction industries are in stress to identify alternative methods and materials to reduce the demand for natural sand. Sewage sludge has been seen as one of the alternative that can replace sand in concrete mixture production and therefore could reduce the excessive production of sewage sludge. It has been reported that Malaysia produce about 3 million m³ of sewage sludge per year and it has been estimated to rise to 7 million m³ in the year of 2020. These situations have contributed to increasing of solid waste generated and have led to environmental issues.
