Definitions

  • the invention relates to the use of active charcoal for binding contaminants in contaminated materials and to a composition comprising active charcoal and contaminated material.
  • a problem with the conventional techniques for improving the quality of residues is that these have a relatively low efficiency. There are often cases where residues remain critical with regard to the leaching standards after treatment.
  • one aim of the invention is to find an alternative and preferably better solution to the immobilisation of one or more contaminants in contaminated material.
  • a composition comprising contaminated material and active charcoal provides a material that, for example, can be used in building and in constructions and that advantageously has a reduced leaching value for heavy metals such as copper.
  • the invention provides a composition comprising contaminated material and active charcoal, wherein the composition contains 0.1-10 wt.%, preferably 0.1 - 4.5 wt.% active charcoal, based on the total amount of the composition.
  • a composition comprising contaminated material and steel slag provides a material that, for example, can be used in building and in constructions and that advantageously has a reduced leaching value for oxyanions like Mo or for instance SO4 2" , Se and Sb.
  • the invention provides a composition comprising contaminated material and steel slag, wherein the composition contains 5 - 20 wt.% steel slag, based on the total amount of the composition.
  • a combination of active charcoal and steel slag can be used to bind contaminants in contaminated material.
  • a composition comprising contaminated material, steel slag and active charcoal, wherein the composition preferably contains 2-30 wt.% steel slag and 0.1 - 10 wt.% active charcoal, based on the total amount of the composition (i.e. including contaminated material, active charcoal and steel slag).
  • the composition contains 2-25 wt.% steel slag and 0.1 - 10 wt.% active charcoal, more preferably 5-20 wt.% steel slag and 0.1 - 4.5 wt.% active charcoal (the remainder being contaminated material), based on the total amount of the composition.
  • An advantage of the use of active charcoal and steels slag together, is that leach out of a number of contaminants can substantially be reduced, whereas the presence of these additives active charcoal and steel slag may not substantially increase the leach out of other contaminants, especially when the above mentioned amounts of active charcoal and steel slag are used.
  • this embodiment not a single contaminant is targeted, but a range of contaminants is targeted. It is known in the art that by solving the problem of leach out of one component, the leach out behaviour of other contaminants may disadvantageously be increased.
  • a more integral solution is provided which surprisingly solves or reduces the leach out of a number of contaminants while not promoting the leach out of a number of other contaminants.
  • an application of active charcoal is provided for the immobilisation of contaminants in contaminated material, in particular for use in building and in constructions.
  • an application of steel slag is provided for the immobilisation of contaminants in contaminated material, in particular for use in building and in constructions.
  • an application of steel slag and active charcoal is provided for the immobilisation of contaminants in contaminated material, in particular for use in building and in constructions.

  • steel slag can be mixed to the contaminated material, with or without the addition of active charcoal.
  • the contaminated material preferably used as lightweight fill material is dredged material and/or residue from the clean-up of soil; bottom ash, contaminated soil, dredged material and residues from the clean-up of soil can be used for the other applications.
  • steel slag can be used in these applications, either alone or together with active charcoal.
  • the invention can, for example, be used for, for example, contaminated materials such as residues which are used as (secondary) building material, where leaching does not meet the valid leaching standards.
  • the materials concerned here are, in particular, residues for which the leaching of contaminants (copper, nickel, zinc, lead, and cadmium) does not meet the criteria. In The Netherlands requirements as specified in the Building Materials Decree apply for these. At the European level work is currently being carried out on the Construction Products Directive (CPD); this will be the European equivalent of the Building Materials Decree.

Abstract

Cette invention concerne l'adjonction d'un charbon actif et de scories d'acier dans des matériaux contaminés tels que, par exemple, des déchets industriels, un matériau de dragage, des déchets provenant du nettoyage d'eaux usées et d'eaux usées contaminées, lesquels, en termes de lixiviation, sont indispensables pour les métaux lourds et/ou les microcontaminants organiques. Le charbon actif et les scories d'acier peuvent être ajoutés à ces matériaux en tant qu'additifs (par exemple, in situ) afin de réduire la lixiviation et le risque d'épandage des contaminants. Curieusement, on a découvert que grâce le mode de réalisation décrit dans cette invention permettait d'immobiliser les contaminants contenus, par exemple, dans des eaux usées contaminées ou du mâchefer.
