Presentation title: Analysis of oleic acid water repellent status coated on fly ash from incinerated municipal waste
Presenters: HASHIZUME Shunsuke, SEKINO Rina, SHIRATA Hibiki, KASEDA Taiga, HONDA Takayuki, KOIKE Yuya
Research description: In this study, the oleic acid status in fly ash from incinerated municipal waste treated with oleic acid water repellent was investigated by X-ray diffraction analysis and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. From the analytical results, it was indicated that the insoluble coating layer was formed by the reaction of oleic acid on the surface of fly ash from incinerated waste. This is a useful outcome for the elucidation of the elution control mechanism of heavy metals by water repellent treatment, and the challenge is highly evaluated.
