Abstract

By utilising MSW fly ash from the Shanghai Yuqiao municipal solid waste (MSW) incineration plant as the main raw material, diopside-based glass-ceramics were successfully synthesized in the laboratory by combining SiO 2, MgO and Al 2O 3 or bottom ash as conditioner of the chemical compositions and TiO 2 as the nucleation agent. The optimum procedure for the glass-ceramics is as follows: melting at 1500 °C for 30 min, nucleating at 730 °C for 90 min, and crystallization at 880 °C for 10 h. It has been shown that the diopside-based glass-ceramics made from MSW fly ash have a strong fixing capacity for heavy metals such as lead (Pb), chromium (Cr), cadmium (Cd) etc.
