Municipal (bottom ash and glass cullet coming from the municipal solid waste incineration and a community glass recycling program, respectively) and industrial (steel fly ash) wastes are particularly suitable to be subjected to a vitrification/devitrification process, leading to the production of alkaline and alkaline-earth silicate differently colored glasses with good chemical properties, capable to be transformed into surface nucleated basaltic glass-ceramics. These materials were investigated by means of differential thermal analysis, durability and release tests, X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy.

• Glass-ceramics: Their production from wastes—A Review (2006, background): “Bottom ash Most studies have concentrated on using incinerator electrofilter fly ash but about an order of magnitude more quantity by weight of bottom ash is produced than fly ash in municipal waste incinerators [151].”
• PROPERTIES OF LIGHTWEIGHT AGGREGATE PRODUCED BY RAPID SINTERING OF INCINERATOR BOTTOM ASH (2005, background): “It has been mixed with glass cullet and a range of other industrial wastes and used as a raw material for the production of glass–ceramics (Barbieri et al., 2000a, 2000b; Ferraris et al., 2001; Romero et al., 2001).”
