Özet

Corresponding to the rapid increase in population, the increase in the number of domestic

wastewater treatment plants, as well as the increase in domestic sludge levels above acceptable

levels, pave the way to utilize sewage sludge in a variety of different applications and usage

areas. Using sewage sludge in agriculture, landscape plant cultivation, and other agricultural

areas has a number of advantages, including the ability to make rational use of waste without

damaging the environment as well as delivering fertilizer benefits to the plant due to the high

organic matter content of the wastewater sludge. Aside from these advantages, the most serious drawbacks of waste sewage are pathogenic bacteria, heavy metal contamination, and the

presence of potentially hazardous compounds. The use of existing waste in the soil in appropriate proportions and in methods that are compatible with ecological life, on the other hand,

will contribute to the fertilization of agricultural areas, providing an alternative to the fertilizer

industry. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), also known as the Global Goals, are a

global call to action to end poverty, safeguard the environment, and guarantee that everyone

lives in peace and prosperity. It is expected that this research will help to promote awareness

about the reuse of waste within the context of a sustainable environment, as well as shed light

on the application of sewage sludge to agricultural fields in accordance with the Sustainable

Development Goals. Furthermore, the support for sewage sludge recycling in agricultural regions for long-term development goals is shown.
