Abstract
Many past studies have been conducted to promote effective utilization of municipal solid waste (MSW) insineration residue as construction materials. However, utilization of MSW insineration residue is very limited, compared to other recycled materials such as slag materials and coal ash. This manuscript presents a review of the technical guidelines for other recycled materials, and addresses technical requirements and environmental quality control for the promotion of MSW insineration residue recycling, particularly in geotechnical applications. In addition, case histories on recycling of disaster waste insineration ash implemented after the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake are summarized, along with mechanical properties of the waste layer at a coastal landfill site mainly containing MSW insineration residue and recycled MSW insineration bottom ash.
