Im Rahmen eines ZIM-geförderten Projektes wurde eine nass-mechanische Aufbereitung von Hausmüllverbrennungsasche (HMVA) hinsichtlich der Mengen und der Qualitäten generierter Fraktionen optimiert. Dabei standen besonders die Qualitäten der mineralischen Fraktionen, die mengenmäßig den größten Anteil darstellen, im Vordergrund, da sie für einen möglichen Einsatz als Baustoff nutzbar gemacht werden sollen. Insbesondere die Chlorid- und Sulfatgehalte sollten dafür reduziert werden. Durch die BAM wurde im Projekt u. a. die Freisetzung von umweltrelevanten Stoffen in den mineralischen Fraktionen untersucht. Dafür wurden Schütteleluate als Übereinstimmungstest und Eluate aus Lysimeterversuchen im Labormaßstab zur Bewertung des Langzeitverhaltens auf ihre Inhaltsstoffe analysiert.
In 2011, the German Association of Engineers (VDI) started working on a set of guidelines dealing with the improvement of resource efficiency. These guidelines represent a framework that defines resource efficiency and outlines proposals for the producing industry. A special guideline for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) is included as well as guidelines on methodologies for evaluating resource use indicators, such as the cumulative raw material demand of products and production systems. The work on resource use indicators is still in progress. The evaluation of raw materials expenditure will include water, soil and land use. The model will include the availability of raw materials (criticality). Improving resource efficiency at the end-of-life stage is illustrated in this paper by the example of materials recovery from waste, here from residues out of municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI). With mechanical treatment valuable materials like ferrous and non-ferrous metals and secondary construction material can be extracted from MSWI bottom ash. The potential contribution on the resource efficiency is discussed.
Bottom ash from municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) consists of elemental metals in considerable amounts. The exergy of bottom ash was calculated to be some 100 kJ/mol, mainly as a result of the presence of elemental Fe and Al. From this it can be shown that the recovery of elemental metals Cu, Al and Fe is beneficial. The fine fraction <4 mm additionally contains chemically bound metals (oxides, carbonates, silicates). Separation prospects with techniques as in ore processing (flotation, density separation, bioleaching, hydrothermal solution) are discussed. Although the concentration of Cu compounds in bottom ash is in the range of today’s exploited ores the economic viability of the recovery of metal compounds is uncertain. For sufficient enrichment different concerted treatment steps are required.
