Sun, Yubo (author), Chen, Boyu (author), Zhang, Shizhe (author), Blom, Kees (author), Luković, Mladena (author), Ye, Guang (author)In recent years, the rapid industrialization and urbanization led to the explosive growth of municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) bottom ashes (BA) production. However, most of them are directly landfilled, which not only brings environmental burden but also results in loss of potential resources. Present researches have proved that MSWI BA...conference paper 2021
