- Abstract
Hydrogen sulphide (H2S) is a common malodorous gas causing many problems of odour and industrial atmospheric emissions potentially harmful to health. Quebec City has mandated the Centre de recherche industrielle du Québec (CRIQ) to determine the capacity of the bottom ash BA produced by its municipal solid waste MSW incinerator for the elimination of H2S. Tests carried out under controlled conditions (laboratory prototype consisting of three reactors containing respectively 10, 20 and 30 cm BA beds) over a total period of 1750 hours (approx. 73 days) established that the elimination capacity (EC) of demetalized bottom ash produce by the Quebec City MSW incinerator varies between 77 13 and 121 20 g H2S/kg dry BA. These results are considerably higher than those published by other authors and demonstrate the potential of this material for various industrial applications (i.e. treatment of landfill gas, pretreatment of biogas produced by anaerobic digestion, etc.) in accordance with the principles of industrial ecology.
