| ABSTRACT |
|
High temperature viscosity of slag was measured to find the optimum operating temperature in a melting system for the treatment of sewage sludge ashes and municipal solid waste incineration ashes. Effect of calcium oxide as a flux for measurement of viscosity was also studied. Calcium oxide played a dual role on the slag system. It reacted as an oxide donor to break apart the silicate polymers, but at the same time the calcium ortho-silicate which was formed was a higher melting point species which, for high levels of calcium oxide, eventually raised the melting temperature of the system. |
