Abstract

The inorganic residues left after burning samples of paper and sorted domestic refuse in air were examined, and laboratory experiments were carried out to determine their sintering temperatures and electrical resistivity. Paper ash had a higher sintering temperature than that of a typical coal ash, but the ash from refuse had a comparatively low sintering temperature. However, a 3:1 mixture of coal ash and refuse ash had sintering and slagging characteristics close to those of typical coal ashes. The ash from both paper and sorted refuse had high resistivities, and this could lead to poor collection efficiencies in electrical precipitators.
