THE USE OF MWI FLY ASH IN ASPHALT FOR ROAD CONSTRUCTION

This paper discusses the application of fly ash produced as a result of municipal waste incineration (MWI), in filler for asphalt used in road construction in the Netherlands. The technical requirements for Dutch filler types are discussed, which are laid down in the Dutch draft standards "Ontwerp NEN 3975 up to and including 3984". Mean values of the relevant properties of several MWI fly ashes, such as bitumen binding capacity, air void, and particle density, are listed. From an environmental point of view reference is made to some leaching tests describing the leaching behaviour of asphalt tablets containing fillers with and without MWI fly ash. A calculation performed on a theoretical filler with 35% of MWI fly ash showed, that no problems are to be expected for such a filler according to the Dutch draft Building Materials Decree regarding composition and leaching behaviour. For the covering abstract of the conference see IRRD 869363.
