Abstract
The study concerns evaluating the physical and chemical properties of sand from sand separators of wastewater treatment plants in terms of requirements for construction aggregates. Thus, an analysis of the physical properties of sand was carried out, i.e. its moisture content, bulk density, and grain density, as well as an analysis of the chemical composition of sand. The intention of the research is to find an alternative to the dwindling supply of this type of raw material, which is essential for the construction sector. It is currently estimated that within 20 years there will be a shortage of sand of suitable quality for use in construction. The article presents the results of physicochemical tests and leachability of selected harmful substances (P, F, N-NH4+, Cl, SO42-) and heavy metals (Ba, Zn, Cu, Pb, Cd, Cr, Co, Fe, Ni) from waste from desanding.
