Physicochemical and index properties of loess stabilized with lime and fly ash piles

The existence of irrigation canals greatly supports the production of rice produced, where irrigation channels will be equipped with embankment to protect irrigation channels. Existing soil must certainly be able to withstand shear strength to withstand embankment, while the soil in the South Sumatra region, especially the swamp area has a low shear power so it cannot hold back the shear strength from the embankment. For this reason, it is necessary to research the shear strength of the soil in the swamp area by adding fly ash and petrasoil in order to get the effect of increasing the value of the soil shear strength in the swamp area. The tests consists of the seive analysis, index properties, atterberg limits, soil compaction, and shear strength testing, based on SNI and ASTM. Mixed variations consist of 5, namely: (i) soil + petrasoil; (ii) soil + 10% fly ash + petrasoil; (iii) soil + 15% fly ash + petrasoil; (iv) soil + 20% fly ash + petrasoil; (v) soil + 20% fly ash; all variations without ripening. The test results are obtained that addition of 10% fly ash + petrasoil could be increase the soil cohesion value that is 21.56 Kpa, while the variation of the addition of 20% fly ash + water was obtained the highest value of the shear angle, that is 32.31 Kpa.

As an effort to improve the subgrade, some construction projects use petrasoil material to increase the carrying capacity of the soil, for example in the construction of the "Improvement of the Tabarfane-Hokmar Soil Road (Chemical Petrasoil)” in Aru sub-district. Previous research on increasing the carrying capacity of the soil have been done using petrasoil, but the results indicated no soil carrying-capacity increase. On the contrary, another study successfully used fly ash on swamps to increase the soil carrying-capacity. Based on these two studies, the current research combined the two additives, namely, fly ash and petrasoil, to increase soil carrying-capacity and get an optimal additive composition. Some tests have been carried out, i.e. the index properties test, compaction test, and CBR test using AASHTO and ASTM standards. Fly ash mixtures were prepared in several composition percentages, i.e. 0%, 10%, 15%, 20%, while the mixture of petrasoil and water is 1 kg: 1000 liters. The results showed that there was an increase in soil bearing capacity based on the largest CBR value in the variation of mixed soil with petrasoil and fly ash by 20% which is equal to 19.7% of the CBR value of original soil without additives.

Municipal waste combustion typically involves both energy recovery as well as volume reduction of municipal solid waste prior to landfilling. However, due to environmental concerns, municipal waste combustion (MWC) has not been a widely accepted practice. A primary concern is the leaching behavior of MWC ash when it is stored in a landfill. The ash consists of a finely divided fly ash fraction (10% by volume) and a coarser bottom ash (90% by volume). Typically, MWC fly ash fails tests used to evaluate leaching behavior due to high amounts of soluble lead and cadmium species. The focus of this study was to identify specific lead bearing phases in MWC fly ash. Detailed information regarding lead speciation is necessary to completely understand the leaching behavior of MWC ash.
