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...

Utilization of mswi bottom ash as a mineral resource for low-carbon construction materials: Quality-upgrade treatments, mix design method, and microstructure analysis

In recent years, considerable attention has been given to the utilization of municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) bottom ash as a mineral resource for construction materials. MSWI bottom ash is the primary residue discharged after incinerating municipal solid waste. The generation of MSWI bottom ash is increasing dramatically with the wide...
