“…3 and 4 show the ranges of elemental composition for those species, based on the literature. It should be noted that some of these studies correspond to comprehensive analysis, where diverse properties are also indicated (Le Forestier and Libourel, 1998;Alba et al, 2001;Bodénan and Deniard, 2003;Li et al, 2003aLi et al, , 2004. Additional works may also be referred in the context of characterization of the considered residues (Sawell et al, 1999;van der Sloot et al, 2001;Song et al, 2004;He et al, 2004;Geysen et al, 2006;Quina et al, 2007).…”

This work reviews strategies for the management of municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) residues, particularly solid particles collected from flue gases. These tiny particles may be retained by different equipment, with or without additives (lime, activated carbon, etc.), and depending on the different possible combinations, their properties may vary. In industrial plants, the most commonly used equipment for heat recovery and the cleaning of gas emissions are: heat recovery devices (boiler, superheater and economiser); dry, semidry or wet scrubbers; electrostatic precipitators; bag filters; fabric filters, and cyclones. In accordance with the stringent regulations in force in developed countries, these residues are considered hazardous, and therefore must be treated before being disposed of in landfills. Nowadays, research is being conducted into specific applications for these residues in order to prevent landfill practices. There are basically two possible ways of handling these residues: landfill after adequate treatment or recycling as a secondary material. The different types of treatment may be grouped into three categories: separation processes, solidification/stabilization, and thermal methods. These residues generally have limited applications, mainly due to the fact that they tend to contain large quantities of soluble salts (NaCl, KCl, calcium compounds), significant amounts of toxic heavy metals (Pb, Zn, Cr, Cu, Ni, Cd) in forms that may easily leach out, and trace quantities of very toxic organic compounds (dioxin, furans). The most promising materials for recycling this residue are ceramics and glass-ceramic materials.The main purpose of the present paper is to review the published literature in this field. A range of studies have been summarized in a series of tables focusing upon management strategies used in various countries, waste composition, treatment processes and possible applications.

“…In addition, the waste volume will be increased (almost doubled) using this method. Consequently, this method is much more suitable for treating highly toxic waste materials (Alba et al, 2001;Auer et al, 1995). A new integrated stabilization technique was developed in four stages: elimination of alkali chlorides by dissolution; addition of phosphoric acid; calcination; and solidification with cement.…”

“…One option which has received considerable attention is treatment by stabilisation/solidification (s/s) (Alba et al 2001;Dyer et al 2006;Geysen et al 2004b;Kougemitrou et al 2011;Lampris et al 2011;Shirley and Black 2011b). The high level of variability in the mineralogy and morphology of APC residues may have significant implications for the behaviour and properties of s/s products because the properties of freshly blended cements, the process of cement hydration, and the resultant microstructure of cementitious matrices are all sensitive to the chemistry and physical properties of the system (Neville and Brooks 1994;Taylor 1997).…”

Air pollution control residues are a hazardous waste, collected when controlling the flue gas emissions created within modern energy from waste (EfW) incinerators. They are inherently variable with regards to mineralogy and morphology. However, this variability is frequently neglected throughout the scientific literature concerned with their management. This work characterises residues collected from five different UK facilities and highlights the implications of their compositional variability for the performance of products resulting from a stabilisation/solidification treatment. It is demonstrated that the variability is of significance for the mineralogy and several key engineering properties of the products, and links between the properties of the residues and the behaviour of the products are shown. Residue variability should be considered when researching technical management options. Treatments are likely to require modification in order to satisfy performance envelopes for individual batches of residue.
