Municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) has been widely used due to its benefits in reducing waste and recovering energy. However, MSWI fly ash and bottom ash are increasing rapidly, causing harm to human health and the environment. This paper discussed the production process, physical and chemical properties, leaching properties, pretreatment methods, and applications of fly ash and bottom ash. By summarizing the previous literature, it is found that MSWI fly ash and bottom ash have mechanical properties similar to natural aggregate. Many beneficial attempts have been made in cement concrete aggregates, ceramic raw materials, and highway engineering materials. Due to concerns about the leaching of heavy metals in fly ash, its application in highway engineering is limited. The application of bottom ash in asphalt pavement is rare because of the side effect on the performance of asphalt mixture. Considering the solidification effect of cement on heavy metals and the low cost of fly ash and bottom ash, the application in cement-stabilized macadam base has broad application prospects. This is beneficial to reduce the construction cost and promote the process of waste incineration, especially in developing countries.

“…This requires collaboration between government, the private sector and society. Several ways to apply the circular economy concept in urban waste management include developing waste reduction programs, conducting environmental awareness campaigns, facilitating the processing of organic waste into fertilizer, and encouraging the use of renewable energy from processed waste (Liu, et al, 2020). This community service activity lasts for one hour.…”

To implement one of the Tri Dharma of Higher Education, namely Community Service, lecturers in the Environmental Engineering Study Program, Faculty of Engineering, Solo Christian Technology University (UKTS), Surakarta City held community service activities in the form of an on-air talk show on Radio Immanuel 94, 3 FM Surakarta. This activity aims to educate the public about the circular economy concept and its implementation in urban waste management. Two lecturers from the Environmental Engineering Study Program were resource persons in this activity, and one student from the Environmental Engineering Study Program was involved to assist in the necessary technical preparations. This activity is carried out in the odd semester of the 2023/2024 academic year. The implementation of this activity succeeded in providing new information and knowledge to the public about environmentally friendly urban waste management.

“…There are more factors affecting county solid waste harmless disposal capacity. Drawing on the studies of related scholars (Chu et al, 2016;Spoann et al, 2018;Chu et al, 2020;Paulauskaite-Taraseviciene et al, 2022), this paper focuses on macro factors such as the construction of public facilities, regional economic development, population density, urbanization and investment in fixed assets for waste disposal. 1) Public facilities construction.…”

Currently, China mainly adopts the waste treatment model of “household sorting, village collection, town transfer and county disposal.” Determining the spatial and temporal distribution of China’s county solid waste harmless disposal capacity and formulating strategies according to local conditions are of great significance in promoting the construction of beautiful villages in China and realizing the Beautiful China strategy. This paper explores the spatial and temporal evolution characteristics of county solid waste harmless disposal capacity by selecting relevant data from 27 provinces in China from 2006 to 2020, and adopts the Dagum Gini coefficient method to measure the spatial gap of it. In addition, this paper empirically analyses the drivers affecting county solid waste harmless disposal capacity using the spatial Durbin model (SDM). The main conclusions are as follows: 1) In terms of time, county solid waste harmless disposal capacity in China as a whole shows a year-by-year increasing trend, especially after 2018 when the growth rate is faster. 2) In terms of spatial patterns, the solid waste harmless disposal capacity of coastal areas is generally higher than that of inland areas, and the distribution of provinces with low and middle levels of solid waste harmless disposal capacity is characterized by concentrated contiguity. From the perspective of spatial agglomeration, the characteristics of spatial agglomeration in the north are gradually becoming more pronounced, while those in the south are not significant. From the trajectory of the evolution of the spatial center of gravity, the center of gravity of county solid waste harmless disposal capacity as a whole shows a northeast, then northwest, then northeast movement, and the speed of “northward expansion” is greater than the speed of “eastward expansion”. 3) The results of the Dagum Gini coefficient and its decomposition show that the northeast has the smallest average annual rate of change in the Gini coefficient. The reduction of the within-group gap is an important driver towards equilibrium. The contribution of hypervariable density is decreasing year by year. 4) The number of harmless disposal plants, GDP per person, population urbanization, the number of township waste transfer stations and county waste disposal fixed asset investment are important drivers of county waste harmless disposal capacity. Findings provide helpful insights into optimizing rural habitat and promoting the comprehensive transformation of China’s county development.
