Common waste glasses (window, bottle glass or tableware) with fly ash form a glass matrix for chromium waste immobilization. Soluble chromium from residual waters was adsorbed on fly ash; the resulting solid contained 23.7% Cr6+. The three glass wastes, chromium-containing fly ash, and borax were used to make glasses in weight ratios waste glass: borax: fly ash of 1: 1: 1 and 1.5: 0.5: 1. The hydrolytic stability ranged from 18.46 to 28.13 µg g−1 soluble Na2O, qualifying them in the HGB1 class. The chemical stability, characterized by the dissolution rate, was 0.011–0.077 µg cm−2 h−1, depending on the glass composition and the aggressive medium pH. The chromium leachability is influnced by the glass composition and the pH of the leaching solution, ranging between 0–0.015% of the total chromium. Chromium waste vitrification is a viabile solution with multiple economic advantages.

In the present study, the activity concentrations of 226Ra, 232Th, 40K in some building and raw materials used in Croatia were measured by using a gamma-ray spectrometer with the HPGe detector. The average activity concentrations of the studied different building and raw materials ranged from 11.6 ± 1.7 (concrete) to 251.2 ± 25.7 Bqkg-1 (GBFS), 14.0 ± 2.7 (concrete) to 54.4 ± 8.3 (coal fly ash) and 147.2 ± 19.0 (concrete) to 773.7 ± 82.0 Bqkg-1 (tuff) for 226Ra, 232Th and 40K, respectively. Radium equivalent activity, activity concentration index, absorbed gamma dose rate indoor due to the external exposure and corresponding annual effective dose were determined to estimate the exposure risk arising due to the use of these building and raw materials.
