Abstract: In this study, the possibility of evaluating sludge from domestic and urban wastewater treatment plants was investigated. In Turkey, a large part of the sludge is sent to landfill. However, these muds can be used with organic matter content. The results of the analysis of the seasonal variation of nitrogen, phosphorus, pH, conductivity, organic carbon parameters of the plants covered in the study were examined and its usability in the agricultural activities of the regions where these treatment sludges occurred took place.
