Considerable attention has been focused on regulatory classification of ash from municipal solid waste (MSW) incinerators. Such attention has raised several issues, which range from the applicability of current federal regulations, to the manner of sampling, and the type of test to apply to characterize the ash. When lab tested under the provisions of the 1976 Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) and its subsequent amendments, municipal waste combustion (MWC) residues sometimes exceeded heavy metal limitations. Lacking evidence to the contrary, the public and the media have viewed MWC residue as ""toxic."" Elected officials, similarly, have relied on such laboratory data to shape their perspective. Reliance on just laboratory leachate data has led to state regulations imposing economic burdens on resource recovery projects. On September 18, 1992, Mr. William Reilly, Administrator of the United States Environmental Protection Agency, issued a policy statement declaring that MWC ash should be regulated as a non-hazardous solid waste. The author hopes that the Clinton administration will continue the current policy. This book would serve to defend the current policy. The engineering approach, emphasizing a rational evaluation of peer-reviewed field data, could defuse environmentalists' claims. Should federal policy remain, due to USEPA's recognition of their problems with field data and lab procedures, this book provides a guideline to implement combustion residue beneficial use. The described engineering methodology, advocating end-product performance and reliance on field data, provides a more rational approach than worst-case, risk-assessment models. This book provides a technical assessment of combustion residues' environmentally benign characteristics and a blueprint to achieve their utilization. Readers, representing both sides of the combustion residue controversy, should appreciate the application of the rational, engineering approach aimed at demonstrating environmental compatibility of heavy industrial energy projects. This engineering approach will enable us to achieve a true balance between industrial growth and environmental compatibility.

Originally published in 1989, this report deals with issues surrounding ash residues produced by municipal waste combustors. Spurred by huge disagreements over the environmental risks that these ash residues posed; Managing Ash from Municipal Waste Incinerators attempts to shed light on the debates around the issue and move forward towards an appropriate solution. This title will be of interest to students of Environmental Studies.

This ash study investigates several aspects of Municipal Waste Combustion (MWC) ash utilization to develop an alternative to the present disposal practice of landfilling in a lined monofill. Ash was investigated as a daily or final cover for municipal waste in the landfill to prevent erosion and as a road construction aggregate. Samples of eight mixtures of ash and other materials, and one sample of soil were analyzed for chemical constituents. Biological tests on these mixters were conducted, along with erosion tests and sieve analyses. A chemical analysis of each sieve size was conducted. Geotechnical properties of the most promising materials were made. Findings to this point include: all ash samples take have passed the EPA TCLP testing; chemical analysis of bottom and combined ash samples indicate less than expected variability; selected ash mixtures exhibited very low coefficients of hydraulic conductivity; all but one of the ash mixtures exhibited greater erosion resistance than the currently used landfill cover material; MWC combined analysis indicates this is a viable alternative for landfill cover; MWC ash size reactions and chemical analysis show bottom and combined ash to be a viable alternative for road construction.

In Powering the Future, Nobel laureate Robert B. Laughlin transports us two centuries into the future, when we've ceased to use carbon from the ground -- either because humans have banned carbon burning or because fuel has simply run out. Boldly, Laughlin predicts no earth-shattering transformations will have taken place. Six generations from now, there will still be soccer moms, shopping malls, and business trips. Firesides will still be snug and warm. How will we do it? Not by discovering a magic bullet to slay our energy problems, but through a slew of fascinating technologies, drawing on wind, water, and fire. Powering the Future is an objective yet optimistic tour through alternative fuel sources, set in a world where we've burned every last drop of petroleum and every last shovelful of coal. The Predictable:Fossil fuels will run out. The present flow of crude oil out of the ground equals in one day the average flow of the Mississippi River past New Orleans in thirteen minutes. If you add the energy equivalents of gas and coal, it's thirty-six minutes. At the present rate of consumption, we'll be out of fossil fuels in two centuries" time. We always choose the cheapest gas. From the nineteenth-century consolidation of the oil business to the California energy crisis of 2000-2001, the energy business has shown, time and again, how low prices dominate market share. Market forces -- not green technology -- will be the driver of energy innovation in the next 200 years.The laws of physics remain fixed. Energy will still be conserved, degrade entropically with use, and have to be disposed of as waste heat into outer space. How much energy a fuel can pack away in a given space is fixed by quantum mechanics -- and if we want to keep flying jet planes, we will need carbon-based fuels.The Potential:Animal waste.If dried and burned, the world's agricultural manure would supply about one-third as much energy as all the coal we presently consume.Trash. The United States disposes of 88 million tons of carbon in its trash per year. While the incineration of waste trash is not enough to contribute meaningfully to the global demand for energy, it will constrain fuel prices by providing a cheap supply of carbon.Solar energy.The power used to light all the cities around the world is only one-millionth of the total power of sunlight pouring down on earth's daytime side. And the amount of hydropump storage required to store the world’s daily electrical surge is equal to only eight times the volume of Lake Mead.
