This research project focuses on the utilization of Municipal Solid Waste Incineration (MSWI) Residues. About 90% of the municipal solid waste is incinerated in Taiwan, producing a huge amount of MSWI residues each year. However, Taiwan is highly urbanized and industrialized, and its disposal landfill area is scarcity. Therefore, the waste minimization is an urgent target for sustainable waste management. The reuse of MSWI residues, including bottom ash and fly ash, should be developed to solve the problems of waste disposal. In this research, MSWI bottom ash was used as a resource again, and its utilization was categorized into four promising ways: sub-base layer, bituminous concrete, controlled low strength materials (CLSM) and permeable brick. This research project also concluded a ‘ reused materials protocol’, as a recommendation for the future legislation and some suggestion about policy and market strategy.
