Abstract:
At 'Afval Verwerking Rijnmond' (AVR or Waste Processing Rijnmond) in theNetherlands solutions are sought for the environmentally acceptable and
economically justified treatment of fly ashes from municipal solid waste
incinerators and hazardous waste incinerators, collected in electrostatic
precipitators of the AVR facilities. One of the solutions studied is the
vitrification of fly ash to lead to a glassy product. For this purpose a
European tender was called, in which vendors were invited to produce test
material for evaluation on a sufficiently large scale to be able to judge a
full scale operation. Kvaerner in Norway was selected to carry out a test run
on sample materials, supplied by AVR companies. For the testing of vitrified
material, prepared in the cooperation between AVR and Kvaerner, ECN Soil and
Waste Research was invited by AVR. A series of vitrification runs was
identified and after preliminary discussions a testing program was agreed
upon. Results are presented. 25 figs., 5 tabs., 13 appendices, 14 refs.
