Waste incineration is the main waste management strategy used in treating hospital waste in many developing countries. However, the release of dioxins, POPs, and heavy metals in fly and bottom ash poses environmental and public health concerns. To determine heavy metal (Hg, Pb, Cd, Cr, and Ag) in levels in incinerator bottom ash and soils 100 m around the incinerator bottom ash dump site, ash samples and surrounding soil samples were collected at 20 m, 40 m, 60 m, 80 m, 100 m, and 1,200 m from incinerator. These were analyzed using the absorption spectrophotometer method. The geoaccumulation (Igeo) and pollution load indices (PLI) were used to assess the level of heavy metal contamination of surrounding soils. The study revealed high concentrations in mg/kg for, Zn (16417.69), Pb (143.80), Cr (99.30), and Cd (7.54) in bottom ash and these were above allowable limits for disposal in landfill. The study also found soils within 60 m radius of the incinerator to be polluted with the metals. It is recommended that health care waste managers be educated on the implication of improper management of incinerator bottom ash and regulators monitor hospital waste incinerator sites.

Municipal solid waste incineration generates large quantities of bottom ash that should be recycled. Current use of municipal solid waste incineration bottom ash (MSWI-BA) in cementitious materials is mostly in Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC). This paper considers using MSWI-BA as sand substitution in Calcium Sulfoaluminate Cement (CSA) as an alternative to OPC. A comparison between OPC and CSA mortars containing 0–2 mm MSWI-BA is conducted. The MSWI-BA used was treated to remove the ferrous and non-ferrous metals in order to obtain a better mineral fraction. Different percentages (0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%) of standard sand were substituted by MSWI-BA based on equivalent volume. Experimental results showed that the compressive strength and porosity of the CSA mortars were superior to OPC after substitution at 1, 7, 28, and 90 days. The compressive strength of OPC mortars with 25% substitution decreased by 40% compared to 11% for CSA mortars at 90 days. This is due to the difference in pH between the two cement pastes as OPC in contact with the MSWI-BA leads to a reaction with the aluminum content which releases hydrogen gas, increases the porosity, and decreases the compressive strength.

Dalam penelitian ini dilakukan serangkaian pengujian untuk mengetahui sifat fisik dari material penyusun (agregat), yang kemudian dirancang komposisi rencana beton dengan mutu K250 (normal/kontrol) dan K250 dengan aditif Silica Fume 10% dari berat semen. Variasi campuran menggunakan tiga tipe semen yang berbeda yaitu Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC)/ Semen Tipe I, Portland Composite Cement (PCC) dan Semen Tipe II. Proses dilanjutkan dengan pembuatan sampel uji silinder berukuran 15 cm x 30 cm (karakteristik kuat tekan, ketahanan sulfat), sampel uji prisma berukuran 20 cm x 20 cm x 12 cm (karakteristik permeabilitas) dan sampel uji kubus berukuran 15 cm x 15 cm x 15 cm (untuk penetrasi klorida). Pengamatan dilakukan untuk melihat karakteristik beton K250 dengan penambahan silica fume 10%, dibandingkan dengan beton normal sebagai acuan, serta aplikasinya dalam lingkungan normal maupun asam (Sulfat, Klor). Hasil kuat tekan memperlihatkan, bahwa campuran dengan menggunakan semen PCC memiliki nilai kuat tekan rata-rata diatas semen OPC. Penambahan silica fume pada campuran semen PCC akan menaikkan nilai kuat tekan sebesar 4,2% dibandingkan beton normal dengan produk semen yang sama, meskipun nilai rasio air-semen nya membesar menjadi 0,71 karena penambahan air. Nilai kuat tekan terbesar diperoleh untuk campuran beton dengan semen Tipe II. Campuran dengan semen PCC (2) menunjukkan nilai penetrasi yang lebih kecil dibandingkan campuran lainnya, hal ini mengindikasikan produk beton yang terbentuk memiliki kepadatan yang lebih baik dari produk campuran lainnya dan tidak porous, sehingga dapat dikatakan memiliki tingkat durabilitas yang cukup baik. Untuk ketahanan terhadap serangan sulfat, beton dengan menggunakan campuran semen tipe II mengalami tingkat pelapukan/penggerusan penampang (scaling) yang lebih besar dibandingkan campuran beton lainnya, meskipun begitu hal ini tidak mempengaruhi nilai kuat tekannya. Untuk produk dengan semen PCC, serangan sulfat tidak mempengaruhi nilai kuat tekannya, bahkan cenderung naik bila dibandingkan pada usia 28 hari.Kata kunci: aspek durabilitas, tipe semen, pemanfaatan silica fume

Pozzolanic Properties

Manufacturing of Portland cement consists of high volume of natural aggregates which depleted rapidly in today construction field. New substitutable material such as bottom ash replace and target for comparable properties with hydraulic or pozzolanic properties as Portland cement. This study investigates the replacement of different sizes of bottom ash into Portland cement by reducing the content of Portland cement and examined the mechanism between bottom ash (BA) and Portland cement. A cement composite developed by 10% replacement with 1, 7, 14, and 28 days of curing and exhibited excellent mechanical strength on day 28 (34.23 MPa) with 63 mm BA. The porous structure of BA results in lower density as the fineness particles size contains high specific surface area and consume high quantity of water. The morphology, mineralogical, and ternary phase analysis showed that pozzolanic reaction of bottom ash does not alter but complements and integrates the cement hydration process which facilitate effectively the potential of bottom ash to act as construction material.

Aeration Capacity

Municipal solid waste incineration bottom ash (IBA) has great potential to be utilized for civil engineering applications. This paper is to investigate the characteristic of gas generation from IBA and to study the potential of IBA as aerating agent to replace costly aluminum powder and as silica source to partially replace silica flour/fly ash in the production of autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC). Results show the aeration capacity of IBA used in this study is about 1% that of pure aluminum powder by mass. Finer particles, higher alkali molarity, and higher reaction temperature encourage the reaction and more gas is generated per gram of IBA. Type of alkaline solution does not seem to be an important factor for gas generation from IBA. Several exemplary lightweight mortars and AACs were produced by incorporating IBA as aerating agent. It is highly plausible IBA can be used as aerating agent to replace pure aluminum powder in the production of normal aerated concrete. IBA-AACs with density ranging from 600 to 800 kg/m3 were successfully synthesized by using IBA as aerating agent. For a given density, the compressive strength of IBA-AAC is higher than that of AAC due to the formation of more uniform pore structure with smaller pore size in IBA-AAC.
