Paving blocks from ceramic tile production waste

This paper presents the use of waste mud from ceramic tile production as the main component in paving blocks. Compressive strength values of the blocks were compared with the standard value as prescribed by the Thailand Industrial Standard. The waste mud was first characterized using XRD, XRF, SEM, Laser diffraction particle size analyzer and sieve analysis. Paving blocks were subsequently prepared by mixing the waste mud with Ordinary Portland cement (OPC) and compacted using a hydraulic press. Water was added to the cement–mud mix to assist compaction and to strengthen the blocks by hydration of OPC. Effects of water and cement content, immersion in water, as well as compaction pressure on compressive strength were subsequently studied. Increasing compaction pressure and also immersion in water for 5 min every 24 h were found to enhance densification and thus compressive strength of the test samples. The blocks containing 15 wt% cement required a long curing period of up to 28 days for their compressive strength to reach the standard requirement while the compressive strength of the blocks containing 25–30 wt% cement exceeded the standard requirement after curing for only 7 days.     

Treatment of phosphorus waste water using crystallization method

Phosphorus is the restrictive factor of water eutrophication and phosphorus removal is the key point to control this phenomenon. It's also important to recover phosphorus resource from wastewater. Crystallization method was used to treat and recycle high concentration phosphorus wastewater, the selection of organic solvent, influence of volume ratio of organic solvent and wastewater, precipitation time and stirring speed on the production of crystal and its structure was investigated. Experimental results indicate that, with ethanol as extractant, under the condition of volume ratio of ethanol to wastewater being 1.5:1 and stirring speed about 200 r/min, crystal precipitated fast with fine crystal shape and purity, phosphorus removal efficiency more than 85% was obtained.     

Cleaner production in the Solvay Process: general strategies and recent developments

The Solvay Process aims at the production of soda ash. The solid and liquid effluents from the soda ash production have been a target of investigation since decades or centuries, often attempting to make use of the wastes. In this paper, all sources of waste from the Solvay Process and their environmental impact are reviewed and possible applications are discussed. It could be shown that, upon disposal into waterways, solid and insoluble wastes have a much higher environmental impact than salt solutions. The results of this study allow the conclusion, that cleaner production in this field can be achieved primarily by the use of cleaner raw materials or by technologies aiming at the avoidance of (solid) wastes or at the increase of the conversion rate of the raw material sodium chloride, whereas the utilization of by-products made from the industrial wastes often faces technical or economical problems.

压力对填埋垃圾产甲烷的影响研究

压实作用被认为是影响填埋垃圾降解过程的一个重要因素,实验通过自制的压缩降解模拟填埋反应器装置,研究了阶梯增加式压力21k Pa→42 k Pa→84 k Pa(分别在垃圾填埋后的第75、103和131 d时施加)对填埋垃圾产甲烷这一资源化重要阶段的影响,包括产气特性、渗滤液性质及固体沉降等的变化.21 k Pa和42 k Pa分别恒定了4周,垃圾最后在84 k Pa恒定压力下降解,实验总共持续了170 d.结果表明,在初始21k Pa的压力作用下,由于接种物跟垃圾接触面积的增大,甲烷日产量从第75 d的1.85 L·d-1增加到了第76 d的2.95 L·d-1,产甲烷速率提高了59.82%,42 k Pa和84 k Pa时均有所增加,但增加程度均不明显.压力还使砾石层上部积留了一定水位高度的渗滤液,渗滤液的COD和含氮量在压力作用下都有了暂时的升高.压实作用还令垃圾体产生了较大的沉降,但压力进一步增大并没有使垃圾继续发生较多的沉降.实验结果有助于更好地了解压力对填埋垃圾降解过程的影响.

Biphasic production of hydrogen and methane from waste lactose in cyclic-batch reactors

The biphasic production of the energy gases hydrogen and methane was possible in a fed batch culture resulting in a volumetric mix of approximately 20% H₂ and 80% CH₄ and an energy conversion efficiency of 95%, based on the measured Chemical Oxygen Demand and theoretical calculations assuming that the substrate (a dairy waste permeate) was lactose. Gas production showed a rapid initial phase over 0–20 h in which the composition was up to 50% hydrogen with the balance mainly carbon dioxide. This was accompanied by the accumulation of volatile fatty acids (VFA) in which butyric was predominant. A slower second phase of gas production produced a mixture of methane and carbon dioxide with a reduction in the accumulated acids. The duration of this second phase depended on the initial load applied to the reactor, and in the experiments carried out lasted between 6 and 12 days. Where the applied initial load led to an acid accumulation such that the pH fell below 5.5, the second phase of gas production was inhibited. Where pH control was exerted to prevent the pH dropping below 6.5, ethanol accumulated alongside VFA as a first phase product, with the gas comprised entirely of carbon dioxide. Despite the excellent energy conversion and the production of biogas fuel elements matching those for hythane (a mixture of hydrogen and methane, with improved combustion characteristics), the overall process loading was considered too low for efficient volumetric conversion of the feedstock to energy. The concept could be further developed based on high rate reactor systems with granular or immobilised biomass either as a single tank biphasic system or in a split tank two phase production process.

大粒径厨余垃圾水热碳化制备炭燃料

开展了不同温度条件（150～300℃）下大粒径（>2 cm）厨余垃圾水热碳化实验,研究了水热炭的理化性质、燃烧特性和关键元素迁移规律.实验结果表明,当水热温度过低,厨余垃圾颗粒尺寸影响水热碳化效果;大粒径厨余垃圾碳化需更高的水热温度;水热温度250～300℃产生的水热炭具有高热值(24.48～26.9 MJ·kg^-1)、高燃料比（0.44～0.56）、高含碳量（59.6%～65.6%）和低含灰量（8.51%～4.35%）的特点.随着水热温度提高,水热炭中碳含量升高、灰含量下降;水热炭的着火温度、燃烬温度、挥发分释放特性指数VI、可燃性指数CI和综合燃烧特性指数CP均上升,提高了燃烧稳定性;同时水热炭中K、Na浓度降低,有利于降低水热炭燃烧结焦;N、S在水热炭中分布比例下降,这将减少水热炭燃烧的烟气污染物排放.因此,水热碳化能实现大粒径厨余垃圾的燃料化利用.
