ABSTRACT
Stabilizing/Solidifying cadmium in residue is a great challenge to the treatment of solid waste. In
this work, a new stabilization process was proposed to dispose of simulated cadmium-bearing-residue
(CBR) by using magnesium slag of the same high-hydration and gelling properties as a binder. A sharp
decline in cadmium leaching contraction from 1415 mg·L-1 to less than 1 mg·L-1 was obtained in this new
process. The XRD, FT-IR and XPS results indicated it was hydration products and silicates produced
by magnesium slag that could promote cadmium (Cd) to take place of calcium (Ca) and immobilize
cadmium in the residue. The European Community Bureau of Reference (BCR) experiment also
discovered that more reducible, oxidizable and residual fraction in favour of restrained environmental
availability was produced in the process.
