Effectivness of pre-washing of industrial sludge (IS) which contained high concentrations of heavy metals on the immobilisation of heavy metals in the pyrolysis derived char was investigated. IS was washed using five different pH solutions; namely, 2, 4, 7, 10 and 12. Two sets of pyrolysis were cond...
