This paper presents a study of the engineering characteristics of air pollution control(APC) residues from a municipal solid waste incineration plant in Shanghai.

Pollution characteristics of APC residues are analyzed based on the experimental results about heavy metal charcateristics and soluble salts of the APC residues from Shanghai Pudong New Area municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) Plant,together with research results about dioxins and furans in other literatures.

Based on the engineering example, discussed and analysed these following the forming mechanism of flue gas pollutants in the MSW incineration,reducing the concentration of flue gas pollutants through adjust the incineration circumstances,semidry method and bag filter techniques.

Leachate from refuse storage pit(LRSP) of a municipal solid waste incinerator(MSWI) located in Shanghai was treated by vacuum evaporation process.

A mixed culture of Acidihiobacillus ferrooxidans and Acidihiobacillus thiooxidans was used to leach heavy metals from MSWI fly ash (municipal solid waste incineration fly ash) to render them nonhazardous.

Discussion on applying incineration slag of municipal solid waste as one of admixture to prepare masonry cement without clinker;
