Pulp and paper mill industries are always associated with disposal problem of highly contaminated sludge or bio-solids. In countries with large scale Pulp and paper production, the huge amount of waste generated has prompted the government and industries to find new use of these bio-solids. Paper mill sludges have a net environmental advantage over sewage sludges in that they are nearly pathogen free;
