Hazardous fly ash: A discussion on the speciation and treatment of heavy metals
Creators
Description
Fly ash is a fine grained material, with high specific surface, considered hazardous by European legislation due to its heavy metal content. However, the hazardousness of a fly ash is directly dependent on the fuel that is combusted. Normally coal fly ash is considered non-hazardous, while biomass (e.g. wood and straw) fly ash has specific regulation for its reuse in agricultural fields (Danish BEK39, 2002). Heavy metals are found in many fine grained materials in problematic concentrations. (Author)
