Roles of chlorine and sulphate in MSWIFA in GGBFS binder: Hydration, mechanical properties and stabilization considerations

In this study, municipal solid waste incineration fly ash (MSWIFA) was first washed (pretreatment) with pure water with liquid to solid (L/S) ratio of 2, 3, 6, 10, to understand the removal efficiency of chlorine and sulphate, as well as its consequent ability as alkaline activator for granulated blast furnace slag (GGBFS). Washed MSWIFA was blended with GGBFS at a fixed ratio of 3:7 to examine their impact on mechanical properties, reaction mechanism, microstructure and leaching behavior. The results showed that chlorine in MSWIFA (>70%) can be washed out easily, while the removal of sulphate was largely depended on the L/S. GGBFS can be better activated by a low L/S (e.g. 2) washed-MSWIFA with attaining the compressive strength of 45.2MPa at 28 days. The higher chlorine and sulphate contents retained in the washed-MSWIFA, the higher the total heat release in the activated GGBFS system. Calcium silicate hydrate (C–S–H), ettringite (AFt) and Friedel’s salt were the main hydration products of the activated binders. The rapid formation of AFt was mainly responsible for the 1-day strength development. Large amounts of Friedel’s salts were formed from 1 day to 3 days associated to the inhibition of sulphate, and the presence of C–S–H played the key role in long-term strength development. The leaching test of heavy metals and soluble ions also demonstrated that washed MSWIFA activated GGBFS binders were harmless to the environment.
