Abstract
A ceramic material made from a precursor mixture including bottom ash particles recovered from a municipal solid waste combustor and fly ash particles recovered from combustion residual gases of a municipal solid waste combustor. In a process for manufacturing a technical ceramic from combined MWC ash, bottom ash particles are recovered from a municipal solid waste combustor and fly ash particles are recovered from combustion residual gases of a municipal solid waste combustor. The bottom ash particles are mixed with the fly ash particles to form a precursor combined ash mixture, which is cast to form the ceramic material.
