The environmental fate of heavy metals arising from a MSW incineration plant

Among the various heavy metals, arsenic is frequently found in abandoned mine drainage and the environmental fate of arsenic in real aqueous solutions can be highly dependent on the presence of co-existing ions. In this study, removal of arsenate through adsorption on the reused aluminum oxide or through precipitation was investigated in a single and in a binary system as a function of pH and concentration. Different removal behaviors of arsenate were observed in the presence of different cations as well as a variation of the molar ratios of arsenate to cations. Co-operative effects on arsenate removal by precipitation in solution occurred with an increase of copper concentration, while a decrease of arsenate removal resulted in increasing calcium concentration. It was observed that the arsenate removal in the presence of calcium would be highly dependent on the molar ratios of both elements.

Carry Over

Possibility of sterilization of solid domestic waste filtrate concentrate with incineration plant carry-out ashes containing heavy metals with the consequent immobilization of the resulted pulp into a cement block has been investigated. It has been demonstrated that the humic acids quantity contained in the filtrate concentrate is sufficient to bind heavy metals contained in carry-out ashes into complexes. A possibility of mutual sterilization of the filtrate concentrate and carry-out ashes has been shown.
