The disposal of biomedical waste (BMW) ash presents a growing environmental concern due to its potential contaminate ecosystems and causes health hazards. This study explores an innovative solution by utilising BMW as sustainable stabiliser enhance the geotechnical properties soft soil, which exhibits low strength high plasticity characteristics. Through application Taguchi method, influence concentration curing period on soil such compaction, pH, electrical conductivity, unconfined compressive (UCS) were evaluated. experimental results show that adding significantly reduces increases UCS, achieving gain more than 180 kPa within 14 days. optimal combination was determined be 20% with 14-day period. Analysis variance (ANOVA) revealed time is dominant factor, contributing 90.86% early development. Microstructural analysis using SEM EDX further reveals formation ettringite, promotes gain. research demonstrates dual benefits in mitigating while improving performance, offering viable for both management stabilisation challenges.
