Fly ash from the municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) which contains a small amount of heavy metals becomes a threat to human health and other living organisms once emitted into the environment, and has to be treated before disposal. This study focuses on the characteristics of the MSWI fly ash, which involve mineral composing, granularity distributing, specific surface area, pore diameter and pore volume of fly ash, leaching toxicity and chemical species of heavy metals. The experiment results confirm that the fly ashes are mainly composed of sylvite, halite, portlandite and calcium sulfate hydrate, with the the average particle diameter of 15.082 mu m and the specific surface area of 4.290 m(2)/g, and the heavy metals such as Pb, Cu, Cr in the MSWI fly ash are mobile except Hg. This research provides critical information for appropriate MSWI fly ash treatment technology.
