Evaluation of Fly Ash Composition from Municipal Solid Waste Incinerators: The Role of the Incinerator Type and Flue Gas Deacidification Process.

ABSTRACT: The resource utilization potential and environmental impact of fly ash from municipal solid waste incinerators (MSWIs) have attracted wide attention. In this study, four MSWIs in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province were selected to systematically evaluate the effects of different incinerator types and flue gas deacidification processes on fly ash's oxide and heavy metal components and their temporal changes as well as conduct risk assessment. The results showed that the contents of MgO, Al₂O₃, SiO₂, and Fe₂O₃ in the grate furnace fly ash were significantly lower than those in the fluidized bed fly ash, but the compressive strength of its fly ash was high. Chemicals added during the flue gas deacidification process such as CaO and NaHCO_3</
