Characterization and mechanical removal of metallic aluminum (Al) embedded in weathered municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) bottom ash for application as supplementary cementitious material

Municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) bottom ash, due to its high mineral content, presents great potential as supplementary cementitious material (SCM). Weathering, also known as aging, is a treatment process commonly employed in waste management to minimize the risk of heavy metal leaching from MSWI bottom ash. Using weathered MSWI...

Characterization, pre-treatment, and potential applications of fine MSWI bottom ash as a supplementary cementitious material

With the development of waste recovery techniques, previous research has revealed that coarse fractions of municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) bottom ash (BA) after proper treatment could be applied in the construction sector, while the fines are seldom recovered in practice and normally landfilled. This study explores the potential...

Potential application of MSWI bottom ash as substitute material in Portland cement concrete: Filler or binder

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...

Pre-Treatments Of Mswi Bottom Ash For The Application As Supplementary Cementitious Material In Blended Cement Paste

At present, most municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) bottom ash, as being disposed of as waste, is directly landfilled, raising concern about the environmental issue and potential loss of resources. Given that the natural raw materials used for cement production are being depleted, the recycling of MSWI bottom ash for the application as...
