Trace Metal Analysis of Fly Ash from Combustion of Densified Refuse-Derived Fuel and Coal Bassam S. Attili, Kevin D. Ingram, Chia-Hui Tai, and Kenneth E. Daugherty Department of Chemistry, University of North Texas, Denton, TX 76203

Analysis of the trace metals i n fly ash produced from the combustion of quicklime binder enhanced densified refuse derived fuel (bdRDF) with coal i s discussed. In 1987 a f u l l - s c a l e c o f i r i n g of bdRDF and high s u l f u r coal was conducted at Argonne National Laboratories. About 567 tons of bdRDF p e l l e t s were c o f i r e d with coal at 0 t o 50 percent bdRDF by Btu content and 0, 4, and 8 percent binder. Analysis has continued on the samples acquired at Argonne. The fly ash was dissolved i n a mixture of aqua-regia and hydrofluoric acid i n a Parr bomb using a microwave d i s s o l u t i o n method . The solution was then analyzed by Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) f o r As, Ba, Be, Cd, Cr, Cu, Hg, Ni, Pb, Sb, Se, Τl, V, and Zn. Results indicated that some trace elements decreased i nflyash with the increase i n dRDF percentage while others increased. The disposal of refuse i s an increasing concern of m u n i c i p a l i t i e s and state governments throughout the U.S. Ten years ago there were approximately 10,000 sanitary l a n d f i l l s i n the country. Currently there are less than 5,000. By the year 2000, many e x i s t i n g l a n d f i l l s w i l l become f i l l e d to capacity, and new l a n d f i l l s w i l l be more c o s t l y t o s i t e (1-3). The NIMBY syndrome, or Not IN My Back Yard, dominates peoples minds when i t comes to s i t i n g new l a n d f i l l s .

It is c o l l e c t e d by e l e c t r o s t a t i c p r e c i p i t a t o r s or baghouses, although approximately 1-2 percent of f l y ash does escape t o the atmosphere (3) even with the p o l l u t i o n c o n t r o l devices on-line. There i s a l s o bottom ash which i s a courser m a t e r i a l t h a t drops through the g r a t e s i n the furnace. F l y ash i s the major by-product of burning MSW (7,8). There are about 35,000 tons of f l y ash produced f o r each m i l l i o n ton of waste i n c i n e r a t e d (9,10). Fly ash c o n s i s t s of 70-95% i n o r g a n i c matter and 5-30% o r g a n i c s (3) . There are many c o n s t r u c t i v e ways t o use f l y ash, i n c l u d i n g as an a d d i t i v e t o improve the performance of P o r t l a n d cement and as a s o i l s t a b i l i z e r (11). Since f l y ash is the major by-product of i n c i n e r a t i o n and i n c i n e r a t i o n i s the main a t t r a c t i v e solution to landfills the physical and chemical c h a r a c t e r i s t i c s of f l y ash i s important i n determining i t s method of d i s p o s a l or use (12). Trace metals are important because of t h e i r r e l a t i o n s h i p t o r e g u l a t o r y c r i t e r i a under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) r e g a r d i n g t o x i c i t y (13). Trace metals p l a y a major r o l e i n whether a f l y ash i s hazardous and i s disposed of or i f i t can be used i n a p r o d u c t i v e way. The most t o x i c elements of concern i n ash are a r s e n i c , barium, b e r y l l i u m , cadmium, chromium, copper, mercury, n i c k e l , lead, antimony, selenium, thallium, vanadium and z i n c . I n d u c t i v e l y Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-AES), was s e l e c t e d over other methods f o r determining these t o x i c elements because of the t r a c e nature of the elements i n v o l v e d , the need f o r q u a n t i t a t i o n and the a b i l i t y t o determine a l l of the elements i n the samples s e q u e n t i a l l y . A microwave oven d i s s o l u t i o n method was used t o dissolve the ash i n a mixture of aqua-regia and h y d r o f l u o r i c a c i d u s i n g a P a r r bomb. The s o l u t i o n was then analyzed by ICP. Methodology F u e l P r e p a r a t i o n . The b i n d e r enhanced dRDF p e l l e t s f o r the 1987 ANL study were s u p p l i e d by two f a c i l i t i e s , one a 40 ton per day p l a n t l o c a t e d a t T h i e f R i v e r F a l l s , Minnesota (Future Fuel Inc.) and the other a 470 ton per day p l a n t a t Eden P r a i r i e , Minnesota (Reuter I n c . ) . The dRDF was made with 0, 4, and 8 percent CafOHK b i n d e r . Before each t e s t run, dRDF p e l l e t s and c o a l were blended together u s i n g a front-end l o a d e r u n t i l the m a t e r i a l appeared approximately homogenous.

I n d u c t i v e l y Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectrometry ICP-AES. A Perkin-Elmer ICP-5500 Atomic Emission Spectrometer with a 27.12-MHz RF generator was used i n this analysis. The performance c h a r a c t e r i s t i c s of ICP, namely i t s v e r s a t i l i t y , wide Appl.icability, and ease of use are almost u n p a r a l l e l e d among other methods of elemental analyses (14). ICP i s theoretically capable of determining any element i n the sample matrix except argon, which i s used t o form the plasma (15). The Appl.ication of ICP t o simultaneous determination of major, minor, and t r a c e l e v e l elements i n v a r i o u s matrices has been w e l l documented (16-19). ICP o f f e r s s e v e r a l advantages as an a l t e r n a t i v e approach f o r the a n a l y s i s of geochemical and environmental samples (2024). ICP permits the determination of a l a r g e number of elements with h i g h s e n s i t i v i t y and p r e c i s i o n and with r e l a t i v e freedom from chemical i n t e r f e r e n c e s (25-27). Sample A n a l y s i s A f t e r the samples were returned t o the l a b o r a t o r y , they were arranged a c c o r d i n g t o the dates and times they were c o l l e c t e d . To determine the t r a c e metal content of each sample, about 10 grams of the ash was ground t o pass a 75 mesh s i e v e . A 400 mg sample was p l a c e d i n a t e f l o n c o n t a i n e r and t r e a t e d with 1 mL of h y d r o f l u o r i c a c i d and 3 mL of aqua r e g i a . The t e f l o n c o n t a i n e r was then p l a c e d i n the P a r r bomb and the bomb was t i g h t l y capped. The bomb was p l a c e d i n the microwave oven and heated f o r 4 minutes and l e f t f o r s e v e r a l hours t o c o o l . A f t e r c o o l i n g , the t e f l o n c o n t a i n e r was uncapped and 2 mL of s a t u r a t e d b o r i c a c i d was q u i c k l y added. The c o n t a i n e r was then recapped, returned t o the microwave oven and reheated f o r 1 minute, then cooled again (28-30). At t h i s stage some uncombusted carbon remained, so the s o l u t i o n was f i l t e r e d t o remove the r e s i d u e . The r e s i d u e was washed with d e i o n i z e d water and the f i l t r a t e was d i l u t e d t o 50 mL i n a p o l y e t h y l e n e v o l u m e t r i c f l a s k .

Also, the combustion temperatures, residence time i n the combustion zone and a i r flow r a t e i n the b o i l e r along with the e f f i c i e n c y of a i r p o l l u t i o n c o n t r o l d e v i c e s have an e f f e c t on the elements present i n the f l y ash. The f l y ash samples which were i n v e s t i g a t e d i n t h i s study by ICP were the from the economizer which comes a f t e r the m u l t i c y c l o n e i n the p o l l u t i o n c o n t r o l system. The r e s u l t s from t h i s study are summarized i n Table I I . Fourteen metals were analyzed i n t h i s study. They were a r s e n i c , barium, b e r y l l i u m , cadmium, chromium, copper, mercury, n i c k e l , l e a d , antimony, selenium, t h a l l i u m , vanadium, and z i n c . The metals a r s e n i c , cadmium, mercury, l e a d , antimony, selenium and t h a l l i u m are not i n c l u d e d i n these r e s u l t s because t h e i r c o n c e n t r a t i o n s were too low t o be detected by ICP. Table I I I summarizes the ICP d e t e c t i o n l i m i t s under the c o n d i t i o n s of t h i s study of a l l of the elements examined. E f f e c t of dRDF content on t r a c e metals. The p r o c e s s i n g of MSW t o RDF removes much of the unwanted t r a c e metals s i n c e many of the metal c o n t a i n i n g p i e c e s of waste are separated before i n c i n e r a t i o n t o be r e c y c l e d . The metal content of the c o a l and RDF blend ash i s expected t o be a f f e c t e d by the d i f f e r e n t percentages of RDF. Elements such as barium, cadmium, chromium, copper, mercury, l e a d and z i n c are known t o be enriched i n RDF r e l a t e d t o c o a l . However, the l e v e l s of cadmium, mercury and l e a d observed were below d e t e c t i o n l i m i t s f o r a l l of the c o a l and bdRDF mixes examined i n t h i s study. Table I I and F i g u r e s 1-7 show the amount of each metal i n the f l y ash. Each f i g u r e i l l u s t r a t e s the v a r i a n c e of the l e v e l of the given metal based upon the percent replacement by Btu content of RDF f o r c o a l and upon the percent binder used i n c o n j u n c t i o n with the bdRDF. The graphs show an i n c r e a s e i n copper and z i n c c o n c e n t r a t i o n with an i n c r e a s e i n bdRDF c o n c e n t r a t i o n . Since these elements are g e n e r a l l y higher i n RDF, this was expected. The elements barium and chromium v a r i e d g r e a t l y but showed a general i n c r e a s e with an i n c r e a s e i n bdRDF c o n c e n t r a t i o n a t d i f f e r e n t b i n d e r percentages. These i n c r e a s e s are a l s o due t o these elements being more e n r i c h e d i n RDF ash than i n c o a l ash. The elements vanadium, beryllium and nickel g e n e r a l l y were decreased i n c o n c e n t r a t i o n with an i n c r e a s e i n bdRDF percentage. Those elements are b e l i e v e d t o be a t approximately the same c o n c e n t r a t i o n or s l i g h t l y lower i n RDF than c o a l . Obviously the amount of a l l of these metals w i l l d e v i a t e as t h e i r c o n c e n t r a t i o n s vary i n the incoming waste

stream. Care has t o be taken i n the p r o c e s s i n g of the MSW t o remove a l l of the p o s s i b l e contaminants. However, the p r o d u c t i o n o f RDF i s very dependent upon what i n d i v i d u a l s throw away as garbage. The most promising aspect of t h i s study i s t h a t the metal emissions vary l i t t l e from t h a t o f c o a l burned alone. Only copper showed a l a r g e i n c r e a s e i n i t s presence i n the f l y ash. As r e c y c l i n g g a i n s p o p u l a r i t y i n t h i s country, the amount of copper i n the c o u n t r i e s waste streams should decrease and i n t u r n h e l p decrease the amount of copper i n the f l y ash of the combustion of refuse derived f u e l . However, i t should be r e i t e r a t e d t h a t nothing i n t h i s study i n d i c a t e s t h a t the ash from the combustion o f r e f u s e d e r i v e d f u e l must be l a n d f i l l e d as a hazardous waste and not used i n p r o d u c t i v e a c t i v i t i e s . Conclusion The binder-enhanced dRDF i s a promising technique f o r the f u t u r e t o be used as f u e l or as a s u b s t i t u t e f o r c o a l . I t i s an economical way of d i s p o s a l of MSW i n the sense t h a t i t reduces the heavy c o s t of l a n d f i l l i n g , and t h i s technique generates e x t r a income i f s o l d as fuel. According t o the r e s u l t s presented here i t shows promise i n reducing emissions, e s p e c i a l l y the t r a c e heavy metals emissions, which a l s o makes i t s a f e r t o use the f l y ash on a l a r g e s c a l e , including f o r many c o n s t r u c t i o n projects.
