The role of water-treated municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) bottom ash in microstructure formation and strength development of blended cement pastes

This research explored the microstructure formation and strength development of blended cement pastes prepared with municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) bottom ash. A new sample preparation approach involving water treatment of MSWI bottom ash was developed to prevent sample cracking caused by the presence of metallic aluminum (Al) in...

Advances in using municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) bottom ash as precursor for alkali-activation materials: A critical review

The pursuit of low-carbon binders as alternatives to Portland cement has sparked interest in developing alkali-activated materials (AAM).¹ Using municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) bottom ash as precursor for AAM has attracted increasing attention as it offers a sustainable, resource-efficient solution to mitigate the...
