Mining Waste Remediated For Recycle By Vitrification

For dealing with recycling hazardous waste, a group of US scientists has developed a vitrification process which involves any hazardous substance being atomistically bonded together in a solid glassy matrix, providing for recycle of the end product under certain conditions. This method and its benefits are looked at in this paper through a case study which aimed to develop a way for a US mining firm to get rid of waste water treatment sludge.
