Comparative LCA of an innovative aggregate production method from incineration waste and CO2 - Etienne LEES-PERASSO - 2015

The incineration process is currently used in many countries thanks to its ability to reduce the weight and the volume of domestic and industrial waste, as well as to sanitize many hazardous waste. This process also generates heat that can be used in households and industries, or to generate electricity. Although, environmental impacts generated by this process remain an issue, and the residual waste (clinker and ashes) need to be either used in roads or landfilled when their material composition is hazardous.
