Solidification/Stabilization of Hospital Solid Waste Incinerator Ash for Utilization in Geotechnical Construction
This study is an attempt to explore the possibility of solidification/stabilization (S/S) of hospital solid waste incinerator ash(HSWIA) with an aim to eliminate/reduce the presence of toxic elements with in acceptable limits so that the same may be utilized in the geotechnical construction. To achieve the objectives, hospital solid waste incinerator ash (HSWIA) was mixed with alluvial soil in different proportions and optimum percentage of HSWIA was obtained based on the strength criteria. Leachate tests were conducted on the samples prepared at optimum HSWIA-soil percentage in order to determine the percentage of toxic elements present. Solidification/stabilization was carried out using cement (OPC) as binder. The degree of effectiveness of S/S product was established by strength and leaching tests. The experimental result shows the marked decrease in the toxicity with an increase in the strength of S/S product.
