This paper reports an experimental procedure of producing geopolymer mortar using petroleum sludge ash (PSA) and fly ash. Replacement levels of PSA were 0 � 20 by the weight of fly ash, 8 � 16 molarity of NaOH, 1.5 � 2.5 ratio of Na2SiO3 to NaOH were used. The 28 days compressive strength of geopolymer mortar made with 10 PSA was found to be the highest (31 MPa). Using variance analysis, the influence of NaOH concentration, the ratio of Na2SiO3 to NaOH, and PSA on the behavior of geopolymer mortars was acquired. The defined models were found to be significant for p-values < 5. The concentrations of the targeted heavy metals were found to be within the permissible level of USEPA. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd date: 2021 publisher: Elsevier Ltd official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85098093738&doi=10.1016%2fj.conbuildmat.2020.121939&partnerID=40&md5=3517117737fa2de815ffcf28b01207d4 id_number: 10.1016/j.conbuildmat.2020.121939 full_text_status: none publication: Construction and Building Materials volume: 272 refereed: TRUE issn: 09500618 citation: Usman Kankia, M. and Baloo, L. and Mohammed, B.S. and Hassan, S.B. and Haruna, S. and Danlami, N. and Affiana Ishak, E. and Nurliyana Samahani, W.
