Solidifica-tion is not a requirement for the stabilization of many traceelements, but does offer advantages in waste handling and inreduced permeability of the stabilized waste.1.1.1 Solidification is an important factor in treatment ofwastes and especially wastewaters. Solidification/Stabilizati
5、on(S/S) technology is often used to treat wastes containing freeliquids. This guide addresses the use of CCPs as a stabilizingagent without the addition of other materials; however, stabi-lization or chemical fixation may also be achieved by usingcombinations of CCPs and other products such as lime,
6、 limekiln dust, cement kiln dust, cement, and others. CCPs usedalone or in combination with other reagents promote stabiliza-tion of many inorganic constituents through a variety ofmechanisms. These mechanisms include precipitation as car-bonates, silicates, sulfates, and so forth; microencapsulatio
7、n ofthe waste particles through pozzolanic reactions; formation ofmetal precipitates; and formation of hydrated phases (1-4).2Long-term performance of the stabilized waste is an issue thatmust be addressed in considering any S/S technology. In thisguide, several tests are recommended to aid in evalu
8、ating thelong-term performance of the stabilized wastes.1.2 The CCPs that are suited to this application include flyash, spent dry scrubber sorbents, and certain advanced sulfurcontrol by-products from processes such as duct injection andfluidized-bed combustion (FBC).1.3 The wastes or wastewater, o
9、r both, containing theproblematic inorganic species will likely be highly variable, sothe chemical characteristics of the waste or wastewater to betreated must be determined and considered in the selection andapplication of any stabilizing agent, including CCPs. In anywaste stabilization process, la
10、boratory-scale tests for compat-ibility between the candidate waste or wastewater for stabili-zation with one or more selected CCPs and final waste stabilityare recommended prior to full-scale application of the stabi-lizing agent.1.4 This guide does not intend to recommend full-scaleprocesses or pr
11、ocedures for waste stabilization. Full-scaleprocesses should be designed and carried out by qualifiedscientists, engineers, and environmental professionals. It isrecommended that stabilized materials generated at the full-scale stabilization site be subjected to testing to verify labora-tory test re

Utilization ofCCPs in this manner conserves land, natural resources, andenergy.1.6 This guide applies only to CCPs produced primar

It does not apply to ash or othercombustion products derived from the burning of waste;municipal, industrial, or commercial garbage; sewage sludge orother refuse, or both; derived fuels; wood waste products; ricehulls; agricultural waste; or other noncoal fuels.1.7 Re

Chemical stabilization may beaccompanied by solidification of the waste treated. Solidifica-tion is not
40、 a requirement for the stabilization of many traceelements, but does offer advantages in waste handling and inreduced permeability of the stabilized waste.

41、e wastes that contain metals since they cannotbe destroyed by other means (2).4.1.1 Advantages of Using CCPsAdvantages of usingCCPs for waste stabilization include their ready availability inhigh volumes, generally good product consistency from onesource, and easy handling. CCPs vary depending on th
42、ecombustion or emission control process and the coal orsorbents used, or both, and CCPs contain trace elements,although usually at very low concentrations. CCPs are gener-ally an environmentally suitable materials option for wastestabilization, but the compatibility of a specific CCP must beevaluate
43、d with individual wastes or wastewater throughlaboratory-scale tests followed by full-scale demonstration andfield verification. CCPs suitable for this chemical stabilizationhave the ability to incorporate large amounts of free water intohydration products. CCPs that exhibit high pHs (11.5) offeradv
44、antages in stabilizing trace elements that exist as oxyanionsin nature (such as arsenic, boron, chromium, molybdenum,selenium, and vanadium) and trace elements that form oxyhy-droxides or low-solubility precipitates at high pH (such as lead,cadmium, barium, and zinc). Additionally, CCPs that exhibit
45、cementitious properties offer advantages in solidifying CCP-waste mixtures as a result of the hydration reactions of theCCP. These same hydration reactions frequently result in theformation of mineral phases that stabilize or chemically fix thetrace elements of concern.4.2 Chemical/Mineralogical Com
46、positionSince CCPs areproduced under conditions of high temperature, reactions withwater during contact with water or aqueous solutions can beexpected. Mineral formation may contribute to the chemicalfixation and/or solidification achieved in the waste stabilizationprocess. One example of this type
47、of chemical fixation isachieved by ettringite formation. Reduced leachability ofseveral trace elements has been correlated with ettringiteformation in hydrated high-calcium CCPs typically from U.S.lignite and subbituminous coal, FGD materials, and ASCby-products. These materials are the best general
48、 candidatesfor use in this chemical fixation process. Lower-calcium CCPsmay also be effective with addition of a calcium source thatmaintains the pH above 11.5. Ettringite forms as a result ofhydration of many high-calcium CCPs, so adequate water mustbe available for the reaction to occur. The miner
49、al andamorphous phases of CCPs contribute soluble elements re-quired for ettringite formation, and the ettringite formation ratecan vary based on the mineral and amorphous phase compo-sitions.4.3 Environmental Considerations:4.3.1 Regulatory Framework:4.3.1.1 FederalIn 1999, EPA completed a two-phasedstudy of CCPs for the U.S. Congress as required by the BevillAmendment to RCRA. At the conclusion of the first phase in1993, EPA issued a formal regulatory determination that thecharacteristics and management of the four large-volume fossilfuel combustio
