Dynamic release of siloxanes in the form of biogas from simulated municipal-solid-waste landfill and the corresponding driving mechanism.

Simulated landfill bioreactors were established and operated for 635 days to investigate the dynamic release of seven siloxanes in landfill biogas (denoted by octamethyltrisiloxane (L3), decamethyltetrasiloxane (L4), dodecamethylpentasiloxane (L5), hexamethylcyclotrisiloxane (D3), octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane (D4) and decamethylcyclopentasiloxane (D5) and dodecamethylcyclohexasiloxane (D6)). In total, 259.45, 252.

Weathering treatment coupled with nano-silica filling to promote the engineering property of municipal solid waste incinerator bottom ash.

A new approach including weathering treatment and nano-silica filling was employed to promote the engineering properties of municipal solid waste incinerator (MSWI) bottom ash. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electron dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) was used to characterize the mineralogical and morphological changes due to the treatment. Changes of chemical stability, compressive strength and heavy metal leaching of MSWI bottom ash were also explored.

Effect of Mass Proportion of Municipal Solid Waste Incinerator Bottom Ash Layer to Municipal Solid Waste Layer on the Cu and Zn Discharge from Landfill.

Municipal solid waste incinerator (MSWI) bottom ash is often used as the protection layer for the geomembrane and intermediate layer in the landfill. In this study, three sets of simulated landfills with different mass proportion of MSWI bottom ash layer to municipal solid waste (MSW) layer were operated. Cu and Zn concentrations in the leachates and MSW were monitored to investigate the effect of MSWI bottom ash layer on the Cu and Zn discharge from the landfill.

Retention and leaching of nitrite by municipal solid waste incinerator bottom ash under the landfill circumstance.

The retention and leaching of nitrite by municipal solid waste incinerator (MSWI) bottom ash could affect its migration in the landfill. In this study, the effect of the dosage of MSWI bottom ash as well as the variation of the landfill environmental parameters including pH, anions and organic matter on the nitrite retention and leaching behavior was investigated by batch experiments. The highest removal percentage (73.

Content and fractionation of Cu, Zn and Cd in size fractionated municipal solid waste incineration bottom ash.

Municipal solid waste incinerator (MSWI) bottom ash was size fractionated into six fractions, with the respective particle size of <0.45 mm, 0.45-1 mm, 1-2 mm, 2-4 mm, 4-8 mm and >8 mm.
