Thermal treatment of asbestos containing materials (ACM) by mixing with Na2CO3 and special clays for partial vitrification of waste

Publication date: Available online 13 August 2018Source: Materials LettersAuthor(s): A.I. Ruiz, A. Ortega, R. Fernández, J.F. Miranda, E. López Samaniego, J. CuevasAbstractThermochemical processes, using special clays as flux, have been developed for a complete mineralogical conversion of ACM waste into non-asbestos materials. This transformation manages to turn these wastes into a secondary raw materials reducing waste generation, principles in which is based on the Circular Economy.
