Characteristics of chromated copper arsenate-treated wood ash

Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2002
The combustion of recovered wood from construction and demolition waste as biomass fuel is a common practice. When chromated copper arsenate (CCA)-treated wood is present as part of the wood fuel mix, concentrations of arsenic, chromium, and copper become elevated in the ash.

Limited effect of wood ash application on soil quality as indicated by a multisite assessment of soil organic matter attributes

GCB Bioenergy, 2022
In Canada, the combustion of forest biomass for bioenergy production has been increasing with an associated increase in residual wood ash. Wood ash is typically landfilled as waste but there is growing interest in applying wood ash to the soils of ...

Solubilisation and colonisation of wood ash by ectomycorrhizal fungi isolated from a wood ash fertilised spruce forest [PDF]

FEMS Microbiology Ecology, 2001
In Sweden application of granulated wood ash has been suggested as a method to supplement nutrient loss resulting from harvesting of forest residues for bioenergy production. Mycelia of two ectomycorrhizal fungi Piloderma sp. 1 and Ha-96-3, were commonly found to colonise ash granules in a wood ash fertilised spruce forest. Thirty-eight fungal isolates

Magnetic properties of wood ash

, 2023
Magnetic enhancement of soils attracts for decades attention in environmental magnetism. Mechanisms of this enhancement have been discussed since sixties of the last century, when this effect was recognized mainly in archeological surveying. At present, the attention is paid mostly to topsoil magnetic enhancement.

Integrated management of ash from industrial and domestic combustion : a new sustainable approach for reducing greenhouse gas emissions from energy conversion [PDF]

, 2017
This work supports, for the first time, the integrated management of waste materials arising from industrial processes (fly ash from municipal solid waste incineration and coal fly ash), agriculture (rice husk ash), and domestic activities (ash from wood
