Atık nihai depolama alanları; tehlikeli atıklar
için 1. sınıf depolama alanları, tehlikesiz atıklar için 2. sınıf depolama
alanları ve inert atıklar için 3. sınıf depolama alanları olmak üzere 3 genel
kategori altında toplanabilir. Bununla birlikte, tehlikeli atık yakma tesisi
uçucu külleri (HWI-FA) 1. sınıf depolama alanlarına bile kabul edilmeyen bir
tehlike düzeyine sahiptirler. Bu çalışmanın temel amacı; bu küllerin tehlike
potansiyelini bir taşıyıcı malzeme kullanarak azaltmaktır. Bu amaçla seçilen
taşıyıcı malzeme geri dönüştürülmüş polietilendir (r-PE). Bu seçimin temel
gerekçesi r-PE'nin ucuz, inert, kolay bulunabilir ve işlenebilir bir malzeme
oluşudur. Deneysel çalışmalarda 45 mikron altı ve 400 mikron altı olmak üzere
iki farklı boyut dağılımında uçucu kül kullanılmıştır. Türkiye'nin ilk
tehlikeli atık yakma tesisi olan İZAYDAŞ'dan elde edilen uçucu küllerin bu iki
alt grubundan küller r-PE yapısına %15, 30 ve 45 gibi 3 farklı oranla ilave
edilmiştir. Karışımların enjeksiyonu sonucu elde edilen kompozit örneklerinin
(HWI-FA/r-PE) süzüntü, aşınma ve çekme dayanımı analizleri
gerçekleştirilmiştir. Süzüntü analizlerinden elde edilen bulgulara göre, 45
mikron altındaki partiküller için tüm HWI-FA/r-PE kompozitleri 2.
sınıf bir depolama alanı için uygun olarak tespit edilmiştir. Benzer biçimde,
400 mikron altındaki dağılım için %45 karışım oranı dışındaki kompozitler 1.
sınıf bir depolama için uygun olarak tespit edilmiştir. 45 mikron altı için,
külden %15 oranında içeren kompozitte aşınma dayanımı saf r-PE'ye göre artmış,
öte yandan kül oranı arttıkça bu dayanım düşmüştür. 400 mikron altı için ise
artan kül oranı, aşınma dayanımını düşürmüştür. Aşınma için elde edilen bu
bulgular çekme dayanımları için de benzer sonuçlar vermiştir.

Effect of recycled polyethylene on storability of hazardous waste incinerator fly ashes: Towards a new composite material

Öz

Landfills can be classified into
three general categories: Class1-type landfills for hazardous wastes,
Class2-type landfills for non-hazardous wastes, and Class3-type landfills for
inert wastes. Besides, hazard
potential of hazardous waste incinerator fly ashes (HWI-FA) is high to be
accepted for Class1-type landfills. The main aim of this study is to
lower the hazard potential of HWI-FAs with the help of a matrix material. For
this purpose recycled polyethylene (r-PE) was chosen as matrix material. Being
cheap, inert, easy to find and ease of processing are main reasons of choosing
r-PE. Two different fly ash sizes were used in the experimental studies, first
group was under 45 µm, second group was under 400 µm. Different amounts (15, 30
and 45 wt.-%) of HWI-FA obtained from the first hazardous waste incinerator of
Turkey, IZAYDAS, were added to the matrix material. Composite specimens were
produced in an injection molder. Standard leaching, wear and tensile tests were
applied to the specimens. According to the findings, for particle size under 45
mm all
HWI-FA/r-PE mixtures found to be suitable for Class2-type landfills. Similarly
HWI-FA with particle size under 400 mm was
suitable for Class1-type landfills except wt.-45% mixing ratio. Addition of
HWI-FA (-45 µm) to r-PE first increases wear resistance of the material but
increased ash content causes a decrease in the wear resistance of the PE. The
increased size of ash particulates (-400 µm) effects wear resistance of the
composite negatively. Similar results were also obtained for tensile tests.
