Course content
|
With the thinning of natural resources of raw materials, inorganic wastes gain more and more in importance. The course involves presentation of the main types of inorganic materials, arising mining and quarrying, by industrial production of various types (iron metallurgy, base-metals metallurgy, chemical industry), in energy production and processing of municipal waste (cinders, slags, ashes), by landscaping and building of transportation infrastructure. Key features from the viewpoint of their utilisation, Contents of potentially hazardous elements, possibilities of revealing their form of occurrence, leaching tests, ecotoxicity tests. Possibilities of the modification of toxic elements´ bonding, stabilisation, solidification, reprocessing to environmentally acceptable materials. Utilisation of inorganic wastes as secondary raw materials in building industry, production of cement, composite materials, plastic materials, rubber, chemicals. Application of inorganic wastes in landscaping and remediation of old loads. Mining wastes as and resource for advanced technologies.
