Abstract

This review evaluates industrial waste: its definition, components and types, and then its impact on the soil.  the remarkable ‎development in industry in recent times and its progression forward led to more secondary products, which at present ‎constitute one of the most important problems facing the scientist. The researchers discuss the extent to which they can be ‎used in soil stabilization by reviewing most of the research and studies on industrial waste and soil. In addition, the ‎advantages and disadvantages of using industrial waste in treating soil problems at the lowest possible cost without ‎resorting to other alternatives. This paper also presents the role of society in reducing its environmental damage by ‎reviewing researches and studies on recyclable materials and the most applicable at present by the industry, which is a ‎suitable idea to incorporate the best-recycled materials in the construction of roads and engineering facilities. These steps ‎came after taking the processes of recycling and reusing industrial waste in many forms and methods, and according to the ‎nature and type of waste and the purpose of its reuse, in addition to the state and nature of the material with which these ‎wastes are used.‎
