This study investigated the use of two waste products, black rice husk ash (BHA) from biomass power plants and calcium carbide residue (CCR) from acetylene gas production as an alkali-activated binder to solidify and stabilize the heavy metal plating sludge (PS) from electroplating plants. Optimum strength of the alkali-activated product was obtained using a weight percentage ratio of CCR to BHA of 60:40. CCR-BHA compacts containing 50 wt % PS developed strength after 3 days, but the addition of 2 wt % Na2SiO3 or 4 wt % Na2CO3 developed strength in all the samples after 1 day. The CCR-BHA paste containing 50 wt % PS developed a 7-day strength >0.35 MPa in the sample containing 4 wt % Na2SiO3 and the same strength was developed after 3 days in the sample containing 4 wt % Na2CO3. The Cr concentration of leachate from all the samples was greater than the regulatory limit except for the CCR-BHA paste containing 50 wt % PS and 4 wt % Na2CO3. After contacted all samples with synthetic acid rain, less corroded surface was observed from sample containing Na2SiO3 and Na2CO3.
