Porcelain formulation in the form of pellets have been studied by substituted fluxing materials with treated FGD sludge at different percentages. In this work, treated FGD sludge was added in percentages from 5% up to 15% uniaxially pressed at 11 MPa, dried and then sintered at temperature 1200 °C for 3 hours. Weight loss, volume shrinkage/expand, bulk density, densification, porosity and flexural strength were investigated on sintered samples. This demonstrated that the treated FGD sludge addition in porcelain formulation has influenced on the sintered samples. It was concluded that the treated FGD sludge waste could be used as a suitable raw material source for production of porous porcelain ceramic due to their organic and inorganic content.
