Abstract: Revisions in municipal solid waste management has resulted in increased waste incineration
for heat and energy recovery, producing bottom and fly ash residue. The fly ash is regarded as
hazardous and in theory remains an unexploited resource. It could potentially be utilized as a
resource for making cement based materials, similarly to fly ash from coal incineration. To use
the MSWI fly ash in cement based materials pre-treatment could be required, to reduce the
hazardousness. Potential treatments could be electrodialytic remediation or solvent extraction.
The goal of this project is to investigate if MSWI fly ash can be a resource for cement based
materials, by partially replacing the cement, and analysing the resulting material properties.
