The aim of this study was to quantify the properties of sludge from iron and steel industry with high content of heavy metals, which has been solidified/stabilised by coal fly ash and Portland cement. The mixtures of sludge and coal fly ash and/or cement after of curing were used for tests. The porosity and permeability characteristics of solidified sludge were examined. To understand the behaviour of mixtures in the long term, the prepared mixtures were tested after 14, 28, 56 and 120 days.

Deinking sludge and coal fly ash are classified as hazardous wastes that have to be treated before disposed in landfill. Solidification is an alternative treatment to prevent hazardous materials release to the environment. The research was conducted to find solidification combination formula of deinking sludge and coal fly ash that pass compressive strength test (>10ton/m2) and paint filter test so it can be disposed to landfill. The concretes were made from cement and aggregate (50% deinking sludge and 50% fly ash) on range combination 1:11 - 1:20. In addition, based on pozzolanic characteristic of fly ash, concretes without cement was made. The results showed that solidification products with combination 1:11 - 1:20 have compressive strength that exceed the regulation and passed paint filter test. Combination of 50% deinking sludge and 50% coal fly ash without portland cement addition had compressive strength that met requirement for landfill disposal.Key words : deinking sludge, fly ash, solidification, landfill ABSTRAKDeinking sludge dan fly ash batubara termasuk kedalam kategori limbah B-3 yang harus diolah terlebih dahulu sebelum ditimbun di landfill. Proses solidifikasi adalah salah satu pengolahan untuk mencegah tersebarnya kandungan limbah B-3 ke lingkungan. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah menentukan formulasi solidifikasi kombinasi deinking sludge dengan fly ash batubara yang memenuhi persyaratan kuat tekan (> 10 ton/m2) dan uji paint filter sehingga dapat ditimbun di landfill. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan variasi perbandingan semen terhadap agregat (50% fly ash dan 50% deinking sludge) mulai dari 1:11 sampai dengan 1:20 dan juga dilakukan perlakuan agregat tanpa semen. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa komposisi 1:11 s/d 1:20 memiliki nilai kuat tekan yang jauh melebihi persyaratan dan lolos uji paint filter. Sedangkan hasil dari perlakuan tanpa semen menunjukkan bahwa kombinasi 50% deinking sludge dan 50% fly ash batubara telah memiliki nilai kuat tekan yang cukup besar dan memenuhi persyaratan penimbunan di landfill.Kata kunci : deinking sludge, fly ash batubara, solidifikasi, landfill

Coal fly ash (CFA), coal bottom ash (CBA) are residues produced in thermo-electrical power stations as result of the coal combustion in the same boiler. Therefore, some characteristics of the coal fly ash (CFA) are comparable with those of the coal bottom ash (CBA). Nevertheless, coal bottom ash size is larger than coal fly ash one. Consequently, it was found that it is necessary to grind the coal bottom ash (CBA) to reach a similar size to that one of the CFA. The objective of this paper is to evaluate the performance of Portland cement mortars made with coal fly ash (CFA), coal bottom ash (CBA) or mixes (CFA+CBA), against sulphate attack. The methodology is based on the expansion of slender bars submerged in a sodium sulphate solution (5%) according to the ASTM C-1012/C1012-13 standard. It has been found that mortars elaborated with CEM I 42.5 N (without ashes) presented the largest expansion (0.09%) after a testing period of 330 days. Mortars made with CEM II/A-V exhibited lower expansion (0.03%). Summing up, it can be established that mortar expansion decreases when the coal ash amount increases, independently of the type of coal ash employed. The novelty of this paper relies on the comparison between the performances of Portland cement mortars made with coal fly ash (CFA) or coal bottom ash (CBA) exposed to external sulphate attack. Doi: 10.28991/cej-2021-03091640 Full Text: PDF

Cold mix asphalt concrete is considered as a sustainable and green pavement, the aggregates and the binder can be mixed, laid, and compacted without consumption of energy. In this investigation, an attempt has been made to prepare cold mix asphalt concrete for base course construction. Two types of liquid binder, named Cationic emulsion Medium Setting CMS and Medium Curing cutback MC-250 have been implemented in preparation of Marshall specimens. Four types of additives, named Portland cement, coal fly ash, limestone dust and hydrated lime have been tried. Mixtures were subjected to aeration, then compacted. However, Specimens were subjected to curing before testing. It was concluded that mixtures with (optimum cutback content + 5% cement and 4 hours aeration and 24 hours curing at 60°C) and (optimum emulsion content +2% hydrated lime +3% cement or fly ash and 4 hours aeration at 25°C and 24 hours curing at 60°C) satisfies the volumetric and Marshall properties requirements for base course. It was recommended that increasing the aeration and curing periods is beneficial for the cold mix asphalt concrete in satisfying the specification requirements for base course.

Granulated blast-furnace slag (GBFS) and coal fly ash (CFA) are two well-known constituents in Portland cements. Ternary Portland cements (GBFS-CFA-K) provide environmental advantages by reducing Portland cement clinker (K) production and, therefore, promote lower CO2 emissions. Nevertheless, both of them cause a delay in the compressive strength gain. Given that, the early compressive strength for both constituents is low, but they improve the compressive strength at medium and later ages as consequence of the pozzolanic reaction. In this paper, a full factorial design with two levels was developed for the mortar compressive strength estimation at 2, 7 and 28 days. Mortar prisms made with 25% and 40% of granulated blast-furnace slag (GBFS) and/or coal fly ash (CFA) were tested. The effects of the interaction between GBFS and CFA on the compressive strength development of ternary Portland cement mortars were reported. Results show that the contribution of both cement constituents to the ternary mortar mix reduces the compressive strength for all the tested ages. Nevertheless, the finer the GBFS, the better ternary cement performance was achieved, showing that the synergistic effect is more effective when the finer GBFS is used, probably due to a more adequate particle size distribution. Finally, a relationship between compressive strength, fineness, GBFS content and CFA content was found for each age.

Worldwide, Portland cement-based materials are the most commonly used construction materials. As the Portland cement industry negatively affects the environment due to the excessive emission of carbon dioxide and depletion of natural resources, new alternative materials are being searched. Therefore, the goal of the paper was to design and develop eco-friendly, low-cost, and sustainable magnesium oxychloride cement (MOC)-based building material with a low carbon footprint, which is characterized by reduced porosity, high mechanical resistance, and durability in terms of water damage. To make new material eco-efficient and functional, silica sand which was used in the composition of the control composite mixture was partially replaced with coal fly ash (FA), a byproduct of coal combustion. The chemical and mineralogical composition, morphology, and particle morphology of FA were characterized. For silica sand, FA, and MgO, specific density, loose bulk density, and particle size distribution were measured. Additionally, Blaine specific surface was for FA and MgO powder assessed. The workability of fresh mixtures was characterized by spread diameter. For the hardened MOC composites, basic structural, mechanical, hygric, and thermal properties were measured. Moreover, the phase composition of precipitated MOC phases and their thermal stability were investigated for MOC-FA pastes. The use of FA led to the great decrease in porosity and pore size compared to the control material with silica sand as only filler which was in agreement with the workability of fresh composite mixtures. The compressive strength increased with the replacement of silica sand with FA. On the contrary, the flexural strength slightly decreased with silica sand substitution ratio. It clearly proved the assumption of the filler function of FA, whereas its assumed reactivity with MOC cement components was not proven. The water transport and storage were significantly reduced by the use of FA in composites, which greatly improved their resistance against moisture damage. The heat transport and storage parameters were only slightly affected by FA incorporation in composite mixtures.

The paper deals with the properties of mixtures on the base of fly ash and sludge from the metallurgical production. The mixture composition of this group is grounded in the knowledge acquired during testing of various mixtures. The mixtures of sludge and coal fly ash and/or cement after of curing were used for tests. The uniaxial compressive strength of solidified sludge was examined. To understand the behaviour of mixtures in the long term, the prepared mixtures were tested after 14, 28, 56 and 120 days.
