The purpose of this paper is to review the present knowledge on ash formation, ash particle
transport and deposition during solid fuel combustion, with emphasis on particle sticking and …

Thermal processing of sewage sludge (SS) has received increasing attention in recent
years. Thermal processes valorise the carbon rich organic fraction of SS, while effectively …

Ever increasing volumes of biosolids (treated sewage sludge) are being produced by
municipal wastewater facilities. This is a consequence of the continued expansion of urban …

The paper starts by reviewing the increasing production of waste and the growing
importance of its thermal treatment, which aims at volume reduction of the waste, at the …

Ashes resulting from the combustion of fuels can contain mobile compounds that may give
rise to significant pollution on disposal or during use. Source reduction has limited potential …

Ashes produced by thermal treatments of sewage sludge exhibit common properties with
cement. For example, major elements present in SSA are the same of major elements of …

The fate and emission behavior of heavy metals (As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, Se, and Zn) from
a hazardous chemical waste incinerator were systematically explored. The results show that …

Zhundong coal (ZDc) with a very large reserve is faced with severe problems of slagging
and fouling during combustion in boilers because of the high-Na content. Sludge, the by …

The pyrolysis residue (SP) of sewage sludge (SS) produced at 500° C was subjected to
batch and column leaching tests to investigate the release of its organic and inorganic …

During combustion of wastewater treatment sludge, the inorganic constituents are converted
into ash which contains the major fraction of the heavy metals present. The behaviour of …
