  • Utilization of two-stage waste incinerator bottom ash as a cement substitute in concrete
    Kokalj, Filip ; Samec, Niko
    The goal of the presented study is to show the possible uses of waste light fraction inicineration bottom ash as a cement substitute in concrete.The produced incinerator bottom ash, formed in the ... primary chamber of the two stage incinerator, was analysed, tested and compared to other incinerator bottom ashes and cement. High resemblance of the investigated bottom ash to cement was determined and compared to other bottom ashes. Compressive and flexural strength and slump test were performed to characterize incinerator bottom ash and cement mixtures in concrete. It was found that after 28 days the flexural and compressive strengths of the binder gradually linearly decreases. The results show that it is possible to substitute 15 wt% of cement where low strength concrete is required.
