생활폐기물을 소각한 후 발생되는 바닥재는 토목, 건설 분야에서 골재로서 활용 가치가 높으나, Cu, Pb 등 일부 중금속의 용출량이 환경기준치를 초과하여 바닥재의 재활용을 저해시키는 주요 요인으로 작용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 바닥재의 중금속 용출을 저감시키기 위한 방법으로서 인위적인 탄산화에 의한 생활폐기물 소각 바닥재의 중금속 안정화 특성을 조사하였다. 4mesh를 기준으로 각 입단에 대해 고액비, 온도, $CO_2(g)$ 주입량에 따라 중금속 용출농도를 조사하였다. 중금속용출시험 결과 Pb, Cr, Cd, As는 미량 또는 불검출되었으며, Cu는 4mesh 이상에서 2.21mg/L, 4mesh이하에서 5.12mg/L로 4mesh이하에서 환경기준치를 초과하였다. 4mesh이하에 대해 탄산화 반응을 수행한 결과 $CO_2(g)$ 주입됨에 따라 pH는 초기 12.5에서 8까지 감소하였으며, Cu의 용출 농도는 pH 10에서 1.34mg/L까지 감소되었으며, pH 9-8에서는 불검출되어 탄산화 반응에 의해 바닥재의 환경적 안정성을 증진시킬 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

Due to the population growth and development of industry, waste from household and industries has increased. As the advanced countries experienced these problems, they have already started research on recycling methods of waste incineration ashes. Domestic recycling rate of incineration ash became up to 80 percent as high as the level of developed countries, but the recycling was limited to fly ash for admixture in concrete. In case of bottom ash, most of bottom ash was reclaimed in the landfills. Therefore, basic physical property and mechanical experiments for bottom ash were conducted in this study to evaluate the possibility of incineration bottom ash as an alternative construction materials. Bottom ashes from three different landfills with two different incineration methods were tested. Incineration methods are Stoker type Incinerator and Pyrolysis-Melting Treatment. Bottom ash can be used as an alternative granular material for construction based on the basic physical property and mechanical characteristics similar to those of sandy materials. However, the incineration method should be considered since it can affect the material and mechanical characteristics of the incineration bottom ash.

A large amount of combustible household waste are incinerated on a large scale. Incineration ashes including flooring and scattering materials are generated in the incineration facilities. The incineration materials (flooring and scattering) are generated 16.5% of the total amount ashes brought into the incinerator. The amount of incineration materials decrease the landfill period of existing landfills and increase the needs for the construction of new landfills. This study introduces technical and institutional suggestions to solve increasing incineration ash problem by recycling them. As a technical recycling method, incineration materials can be recycled by producing earthwork materials and concrete products. In addition, the government and local governments will be able to promote recycling by improving related laws such as the Waste Management Act and by preparing active institutional support measures such as incentives for recycling companies for Green New Deal strategies.

About 35 domestic incinerators are being operated currently. There is waste management policy to reuse waste efficiently and reduce waste through incineration which include reuse, recycling and energy recovery. However, there is a critical social issue that some heavy metals(Cu, Pb) were found in bottom ash from incineration of waste. After incineration, bottom ash is treated with chemicals to prevent second pollution of heavy metals from bottom ash and increase efficiency of heavy metal stabilization.

The intension of this study is to produce ordinary portland cement using ash, both bottom ash and fly ash, obtained from municipal solid waste incineration ash (MSWI). We used limestone, waste molding sand, shale, slag from converting furnaces and fly ash as main raw materials and mixed them, setting the lime saturation factor (LSF) within 91.0, the silica modulus (SM) within 2.40, and iron modulus (IM) within 1.80. We conducted tests adding bottom ash alone 1, 2 and 3％ by weight, respectively, and a mixture of bottom ash 0.9％ and fly ash 0.1 ％ by weight. The result of analysis on clinker shows that the more ash is added, the lower the burnability index (B.I.) falls, lowering the mineral evolution of calcium silicate accordingly. From the measurement of compressive strength we have learned that the more ash is used, the lower the strength becomes.

The main consistent materials and main elements of the bottom ash in municipal solid waste incineration ash according to particle size were investigated and the environmental hazards were considered by investigating the content of dioxin and heavy metals in bottom ash and the concentration of heavy metals in its leachate. The main materials of bottom ash are glasses, ceramics, scraps of iron. As the particle size increases, their percentage weight also increases and their percentage weight was over 70% in 4 mesh~25 mm particle size fraction. The main elements of bottom ash are CaO, $SiO_2$, $Fe_2$$O_3$,$ A1_2$$O_3$and the content of CaO decreases and the content of $SiO_2$increases as particle size increases. The heavy metals accumulate in small particle size fraction. The concentration of heavy metals in each leachate by domestic leaching test is almost similar. As the aging period is prolonged, pH of bottom ash lowers gradually and the leached concentration of Cu and Pb diminishes.

The treatment of domestic municipal solid waste has inclined to incineration process instead of disposal in landfills. So, the amount of ash generated by incineration of municipal solid waste is gradually increased. The incineration ash divides into bottom ash and fly ash. The bottom ash which accounts for about 90% of the incineration ash consists of ceramics, glasses and metals. And it can be used as the recycling product by the stabilization process. For example, the bottom ash is used as secondary building material or for other similar purposes such as road sub-bases and noise barrier in USA, Europe and Japan. But, the stabilization-treatment technique of bottom ash sti11leaves much to be desired in Korea. Thus, the domestic study of recycling about bottom ash must be improved through investigation about the chemical property and technique of stabilization.

본 연구에서는 생활폐기물 소각장에서 발생하고 있는 바닥재를 이용하여 각 입도에 대해 자력의 세기에 따라 철/비철선별 하였다. 자력의 세기에 따른 분리량과 분리된 산물의 철함 유량을 조사함으로써 자력 및 비철 효율을 파악하고자 하였다. 또한, 비철 선별기를 사용하여 비철 선별 효율을 조사하였다. 자력선별결과, 자력의 세기가 증가할수록 자력선별에 의해 분리량이 증가하였으나, 분리된 산물의 철함유량은 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 이러한 결과는 자력세기의 증가가 철회수량의 증가보다는 불순물의 혼입량을 증가시키는 것으로 생각된다. 비철의 경우, 입자크기가 커짐에 따라 분리율이 높았으며, 4.75mm이상에서는 대부분의 비철이 회수되었다.

본 연구에서는 생활 폐기물의 소각 바닥재를 사용하여 입도 분리한 후 각 입도별 철 비철 금속이 함유된 바닥재를 자력세기에 따라 분리하였다. 철의 분석결과 4mesh이상의 입자에서 대부분의 철이 회수되었고 4mesh이하에서는 철의 함유량이 적었지만 50mesh 이하의 입자에서는 자력에 의해 대부분 분리되었다. 또한 각 입도에 따른 자력세기별로 철의 회수율을 측정한 결과 $25{\sim}130gauss(30{\sim}150volt)$에서는 낮은 회수율을 보였고 380gauss(150volt이상)의 높은 자력에서만 분리가 일어남을 확인할 수 있었다. 비철은 대부분 4mesh에서 분포하였고 전체적으로 낮은 양이 존재하였다.
