The garbage problem in Malaysia is a serious concern. The vacant land area to be used as a landfill is also limited. This has led the government to apply the incinerator system as a method to reduce the quantity of solid waste dramatically. This system produces two types of waste which is fly ash and bottom ash. In essence, fly ash has been used as an additive substance in cement since it has a few pozzolonic and cementatious properties. While bottom ash, has been used as a replacement material for aggregates in road construction. Some important laboratory testing such as XRF Analysis, Sieve Analysis and AAS (Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry) has been implemented. At the beginning stage, the sample being oven-dried for about 24 hours and then sieve to get the particle size of less than 100μm. It can be classified as sand to silt-clay with high percentage of coarse to medium sand. More than 5% out of every 500 gram are going through the sieve tray with the particle size of less than 100μm. The particles sizes are comply with the required size for cement material. Sieve sample then will be forwarded to the XRF test to determine the chemical composition in the samples. The chemical compositions in the bottom ash are most likely similar to the cement itself and it also has the cementatious and pozzolonic properties. Research sample of bottom ash has been classified as Class C according to the requirement needed in ASTM C618:2013 (edited version). It is determined by the sum of SiO2 + Al2O3 + Fe2O3. Therefore, as a conclusion, bottom ash could be a binder material in cement but somehow need an extra testing to ensure the advantages and the suitability of the sample as binder material. 2015-07-29T03:00:24Z 2015-07-29T03:00:24Z 2013-06 Learning Object http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/40382 en Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP) School of Environmental Engineering
