Leaching Characteristics of Fly Ash from Thermal Power Plants of Soma and Tunçbilek, Turkey 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Use of lignite in power generation has led to increasing environmental problems associated not only with gaseous emissions but also with the disposal of ash residues. In particular, use of low quality coal with high ash content results in huge quantities of fly ash to be disposed of. The main problem related to fly ash disposal is the heavy metal content of the residue. In this regard, experimental results of numerous studies indicate that toxic trace metals may leach when fly ash contacts water. In this study, fly ash samples obtained from thermal power plants, namely Soma and Tunçbilek, located at the west part of Turkey, were subjected to toxicity tests such as European Committee for standardization (CEN) and toxicity characteristic leaching (TCLP) procedures of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA). The geochemical composition of the tested ash samples from the power plant show variations depending on the coal burned in the plants. Furthermore, the CEN and TCLP extraction results showed variations such that the ash samples were classified as `toxic waste' based on TCLP result whereas they were classified as `non-toxic' wastes based on CEN results, indicating test results are pH dependent. 相似文献

Malaysia is in dire need of alternatives to landfilling for solid waste management. Recently, landfills have faced the problems
of overfilling, overflowing of leachates leading to pollution of water resources, and uncontrolled dust emissions adversely
affecting the local environment. With the rising cost of urbanization coupled with the high rate of waste generation, one
possible method of waste treatment that is receiving particular attention by the government is incineration. Incineration
of solid waste is rather new in Malaysia, with limited usage in handling small sources of waste generation such as the municipal
solid waste (MSW) of resort islands; however, its potential in ameliorating the problems associated with solid waste treatment
may make it an attractive alternative to landfill. This article presents the results of test runs conducted to investigate
the performance of a locally designed and manufactured rotary kiln incinerator (RKI). The test runs were conducted using MSW
collected from the Shah Alam municipality. The combustion efficiency was analyzed by looking at the temperature profiles and
chemical species concentrations. To complement the combustion characteristics measurements, predictions of the air flow in
the incinerator during the process were also investigated. The overall performance of the RKI suggests that it is suitable
for treating MSW. 相似文献

Time-lapse resistivity measurements and groundwater geochemistry were used to study salinity effect on groundwater aquifer at the ex-promontory-land of Carey Island in Malaysia. Resistivity was measured by ABEM Terrameter SAS4000 and ES10-64 electrode selector. Relationship between earth resistivity and total dissolved solids (TDS) was derived, and with resistivity images, used to identify water types: fresh (ρ ( e ) > 6.5 Ω m), brackish (3 Ω m < ρ ( e ) < 6.5 Ω m), or saline (ρ ( e ) < 3 Ω m). Long-term monitoring of the studied area's groundwater quality via measurements of its time-lapse resistivity showed salinity changes in the island's groundwater aquifers not conforming to seawater-freshwater hydraulic gradient. In some aquifers far from the coast, saline water was dominant, while in some others, freshwater 30 m thick showed groundwater potential. Land transformation is believed to have changed the island's hydrogeology, which receives saltwater pressure all the time, limiting freshwater recharge to the groundwater system. The time-lapse resistivity measurements showed active salinity changes at resistivity-image bottom moving up the image for two seasons' (wet and dry) conditions. The salinity changes are believed to have been caused by incremental tide passing through highly porous material in the active-salinity-change area. The study's results were used to plan a strategy for sustainable groundwater exploration of the island. 相似文献

Produced water is a significant waste stream generated in association with oil and gas production. It contains high concentrations of hydrocarbon constituents and different salts. In this study, a membrane sequencing batch reactor (MSBR) was used to treat synthetic and real produced water. The MSBR was evaluated in terms of biodegradation of hydrocarbons in the synthetic produced water with various organic loading rates (OLR) (0.281, 0.563, 1.124, 2.248, and 3.372 kg COD/(m3 day)), cycle time (12, 24, and 48 h), and membrane performance. The effects of salt concentrations at different total dissolved solids (TDS) (35,000, 50,000, 100,000, 150,000, 200,000, and 250,000 mg/L) on biological treatment of the pollutants in the synthetic and real wastewater were studied. At an OLR of 1.124 kg COD/(m3 day), an HRT of 48 h and TDS of 35,000 mg/L, removal efficiencies of 97.5%, 97.2%, and 98.9% of COD, total organic carbon (TOC), and oil and grease (O&G), respectively were achieved. For the real produced water, removal rates of 86.2%, 90.8%, and 90% were obtained for the same conditions. However, with increasing salt content, the COD-removal efficiencies of the synthetic and real produced water were reduced to 90.4% and 17.7%, respectively at the highest TDS. 相似文献

Evaluation of chemical stability of heavy metals in industrial waste slag by infrared spectroscopy 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0

Our aim was to clarify the chemical bonding type and stability of heavy metals in industrial waste slag (IWS) by using Fourier
transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy. The chemical composition of the IWS sample used in this study was an Al/Si ratio
of 0.50 with Fe, Pb, and other minor heavy metals present. The IR peak position of the Si-OSi( M) band (M: Al, Pb, or Fe)
was lower for IWS (971 cm−1) than for synthetic Si-Al glass with an Al/Si ratio of 0.5 (1029 cm−1). This implies the formation of covalent Si-O-Pb and Si-O-Fe bonds in the IWS, which caused a shift in the peak position
toward a lower wavenumber. FT-IR spectra of synthetic Si-Al-Pb and Si-Al-Fe glasses with various Pb/Si and Fe/Si ratios with
a constant Al/Si ratio of 0.5 showed that the peak position of the Si-O-Si(M) band continuously shifted toward lower wavenumbers
with increasing Pb/Si and Fe/Si ratios. This suggests that covalent Si-O-Pb and Si-O-Fe bonds are formed in IWS. The comparison
of peak positions of the Si-O-Si(M) band between IWS and Si-Al-Fe glass indicated that not only Pb but also other minor heavy
metals such as Cu and Cr were included by covalent bonds into the structure of IWS. Therefore, we concluded that most of the
heavy metals in IWS formed covalent Si-O-M bodings and were chemically stable. 相似文献

Many studies have been conducted to investigate thephysicochemical behavior of pure clay minerals and predicttheir engineering performance in the field. In this study, thephysicochemical properties of an artificial mixture of differentclay minerals namely, 40-50% montmorillonite, 20-30% illite and 10-15% kaolin were investigated. The mixture was homoionized with sodium, Na+; calcium, Ca2+; andaluminum, Al3+. The engineering properties studied wereconsistency limits, sediment volume, compressibility behavior,and hydraulic conductivity. The results revealed that theliquid, plastic and shrinkage limits of soil increased withincreasing cation valence. The hydraulic conductivity of thesoil also increased with an increase in the valence of thecation at any given void ratio. Aluminum and sodium treatedclays had the highest and the lowest modified compressionindex values, respectively. Furthermore, trivalent cationsaturated clayey soil consolidates three times faster thanthat of monovalent and two times faster than that of divalent.These properties of the soils determined were, in general,similar to those of kaolinite rather than those ofmontmorillonite. The comparison of the results obtained withthe published data in the literature revealed that thephysicochemical behavior of the tested clay soil was, ingeneral, similar to that of kaolinite. 相似文献

Use of lignite in power generation has led to increasing environmental problems associated not only with gaseous emissions, but also with the disposal of ash residues. In particular, use of low quality coals with high ash content results in huge quantities of both fly and bottom ashes to be disposed of. A main problem related to coal ash disposal is the heavy metal content of the residue. In this regard, experimental results of numerous studies indicate that toxic trace metals may leach when fly and bottom ashes are in contact with water. In this study, fly and bottom ash samples obtained from thermal power plants, namely Yenikoy, Kemerkoy and Yatagan, located at the southwestern coast of Turkey, were subjected to toxicity tests such as the extraction (EP) and toxicity characteristic leaching (TCLP) procedures of the US Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and the so-called 'Method A' extraction procedure of the American Society of Testing and Material (ASTM). The geochemical composition of ash samples showed variations depending on the coal burned in the plants. Furthermore, the EP, TCLP and ASTM toxicity tests showed variations such that the ash samples were classified as 'toxic waste' based on EP and TCLP results whereas they were classified as 'non-toxic' based on ASTM results, indicating test results are pH dependent. When the extraction results were compared with the chemical composition of water samples obtained in the vicinity of the thermal power plants, it was found that the results obtained using the ASTM procedure cannot be used to predict subsurface contamination whereas the EP and TCLP procedures can be used. 相似文献
