Mineral trace elements (MTE) constitute an environmental restriction on the recycling of municipal solid waste incineration-bottom ash (MSWI-BA). The study of the speciation of MTE and the factors that control their release allows to predict their behavior under different environmental conditions and, consequently, suggest different actions to expand the management of MSWI-BA.A geochemical modeling led to a better understanding of the speciation of MTE. In this study, target elements were barium, copper, lead, nickel and zinc and the factors that control their release were identified.The results show that the leaching of metals as a function of pH mainly depends on the mineralogical phases. On the other hand, the organic matter has an influence in the leaching of MTE (for Ni, Cu and Pb notably); organic matter presents adsorbent or complexation properties. Les éléments traces métalliques (ETM) constituent une restriction environnementale pour le recyclage des mâchefers d'incinération des déchets non dangereux (MIDND). L'étude de la spéciation des ETM et des facteurs qui contrôlent leur mobilité permet de prédire le comportement des MIDND dans différentes conditions environnementales et de suggérer ensuite des actions pour élargir leur gestion. Une modélisation géochimique des MIDND a permis de mieux comprendre la spéciation des ETM. Dans cette étude, les éléments ciblés étaient le baryum, le cuivre, le plomb, le nickel et le zinc et les facteurs qui régissent leur mobilité ont été définis. Les résultats montrent que la lixiviation des métaux en fonction du pH dépend principalement des phases minéralogiques ; la matière organique joue également un rôle en tant qu'adsorbant ou complexant dans la lixiviation de certains éléments (Ni, Cu et Pb, notamment). Mots-clés Mâchefers d'incinération des déchets non dangereux (MIDND), éléments traces métalliques, capacité de neutralisation acide, modélisation géochimique, PhreeqCI.

In order to study the effect of organic matter on the heavy metals leachability from municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) bottom ash. In the project, the composted sewage sludge (CS) rich in organic matter was mixed with MSWI bottom ash in a certain proportion. e exudation test, determination of the leaching liquid pH, dissolved organic carbon and humus concentration, and the concentration of heavy metals. And the combination of CS and BA in organic compounds and metal content, calculate metal leaching rate. According to the experimental results, analysis of dissolved organic matter and humic acid concentrations and Cu and Cr leaching concentration, showed that when CS mixture ratio of 20%, organic matter and humic substances concentration and Cu and Cr leaching concentrations are highly linear correlation.

Waste management is a vital environmental issue in the world today. Municipal solid wastes (MSWs) are discarded in huge quantities on a daily basis and need to be well controlled. Incineration is a common method for reducing the volume of these wastes, yet it produces ashes that require further assessment. Municipal solid waste incineration bottom ash (MSWI-BA) is the bulk byproduct of the incineration process and has the potential to be used in the construction sector. This paper offers a review of the use of MSWI-BA as aggregates in cementitious materials. With the growing demand of aggregates in cementitious materials, MSWI-BA is considered for use as a partial or full alternative. Although the physical and chemical properties of MSWI-BA are different than those of natural aggregates (NA) in terms of water absorption, density, and fineness, they can be treated by various methods to ensure suitable quality for construction purposes. These treatment methods are classified into thermal treatment, solidification and stabilization, and separation processes, where this review focuses on the techniques that reduce deficiencies limiting the use of MSWI-BA as aggregates in different ways. When replacing NA in cementitious materials, MSWI-BA causes a decrease in workability, density, and strength. Moreover, they cause an increase in water absorption, air porosity, and drying shrinkage. In general, the practicality of using MSWI-BA in cementitious materials is mainly influenced by its treatment method and the replacement level, and it is concluded that further research, especially on durability, is required before MSWI-BA can be efficiently used in the production of sustainable cementitious materials.
