Interests in the reuse and recycling of municipal solid waste (MSW) combustion ash have increased as practical uses for this material improve. Among factors that warrant further investigation as interests rise for ash reuse is the variability of ash and ash leachate characteristics due to seasonal variations in the composition of the waste stream combusted. Since the constituents of MSW can vary by season, a logical assumption is that ash from the combustion of such waste also varies. Montgomery County, Maryland investigated the seasonal variations in the characterization of MSW ash and MSW ash landfill leachate from their Waste-to-Energy facility over a period of eighteen months.
