Incineration is a major treatment process for municipal solid waste in Taiwan. It is estimated
that over 1.5 Mt of incinerator ash are produced annually. This study proposes using thermal …

This research employed two thermal plasma melting systems and vitrification technology to
treat incinerator ash. The melted slag was used for the production of glass–ceramics via …

To treat incinerated ash is an important issue in Taiwan. Incinerated ashes contain a
considerable amount of hazardous materials such as dioxins and heavy metals. If these …

There are 21 Metro-waste incinerators in Taiwan under construction and are expected to be
finished at year 2003. It is estimated that these incinerators will produce about two million …

Aims The thermal plasma treatment is an effective method which can be used to convert
hazardous waste into less toxic or inert glassy products. The aim of this paper is to show the …

Glass–ceramics have been produced from municipal solid waste incinerator (MSWI) fly ash
by melting the ash in dc arc plasma reactor and subsequent heat treatment at various …

This study investigated glass ceramics produced using coal gasification slag (CGS) and
petrochemical incineration fly ash (PIFA) to immobilize hazardous heavy metals such as Cr …

Several fly ash samples collected from different municipal solid waste incinerator plants
were vitrified using thermal plasma furnace at 1400–1500° C. After vitrification, there are …

This study presents a novel thermal plasma melting technique for neutralizing and recycling
municipal solid waste incinerator (MSWI) ash residues. MSWI ash residues were converted …

In this study, glassy slag was produced by melting fly ash samples without any additives in a
thermal plasma reactor, the core of which was a DC double anode plasma torch. After …
