Abstract: In the developing countries, the number of treatment plants increases and therefore there is a great increase in the amount of waste water treatment sludge. It is the most appropriate and efficient method to use for sludge disposal methods. But due to contains of the heavy metal elements, pathogens and the harmful effects which occur in the amount of the soil, usage, usage phase should be considered and precautions should be taken. In this study, the effect of soil sludge structure, stabilization, composting, usage areas, advantages and disadvantages of sewage sludge, soil treatment of sewage sludge and vegetation sludge was investigated. On the other hand, some of the previous studies on this subject have been investigated and dissuaded with relating our study.
