Investigating the use of zinc production wastes as filler in asphalt mixtures
This study aimed to evaluate different types of zinc production wastes for using as filler in asphalt mixtures. Four different types of waste, namely, leach cake, nickel cake, cobalt cake and zinc ash have been chosen along with limestone powder as the control filler for evaluation. Elemental analysis of the fillers, the rheological properties of the mastics and some mechanical properties of the mixtures using Marshall and indirect tensile strength (ITS) tests and their environmental effects using Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) and Synthetic Precipitation Leaching Procedure (SPLP) tests have been investigated. Results show that, except the nickel cake, for which the cadmium concentration exceeds the legal limit, rest of the fillers can be used as filler in asphalt concrete. The zinc ash filler results in much better performance than the other fillers. Leach and cobalt cake are found to be hydrophilic with low resistance against moisture damage.
