The Class F fly ash has been subjected to high energy ball milling and has been converted into nanostructured material. The nano structured fly ash has been characterized for its particle size by using particle size analyzer, specific surface area with the help of BET surface area apparatus, structure by X-ray diffraction studies and FTIR, SEM and TEM have been used to study particle aggregatio...

To study effects of several factors on the properties of fly ash based geopolymer concrete on the compressive strength and also the cost comparison with the normal concrete. The test variables were molarities of sodium hydroxide(NaOH) 8M,14M and 16M, ratio of NaOH to sodium silicate (Na2SiO3) 1, 1.5, 2 and 2.5, alkaline liquid to fly ash ratio 0.35 and 0.40 and replacement of water in Na2SiO3 s...

-The simple replacement technique of cement by fly ash in concrete does not produce a concrete with desirable early strength which is a significant parameter of present day emphasis of speedier construction. Increasing the amount of flyash replacement slows down the strength development at early ages. For effective mix proportioning of fly ash concrete, cementing efficiency factor has to be tak...

This research was conducted to develop flowable slurry containing fibrous residuals from pulp and paper mills. Two types of flowable slurry containing ASTM Class C fly ash were produced: fly ash slurry and sandy slurry. Often, the fly ash slurry made without fibrous residuals showed a tendency to set rapidly, and become unworkable. When the cement-to-fly ash ratio was increased to extend the ti...

A comparative analysis on the physical nature of the fly ashes, obtained from three thermal power plants, situated in West Bengal, India is presented in this work. The particle size of the fly ash samples are estimated, and their morphology and compositional analysis are made. These samples are crystalline, and the major components are mullite and quartz. Quantitative magnetic characterizations...

In hybrid alkaline fly ash cements, a new generation of binders, hydration, is characterized by features found in both ordinary portland cement (OPC) hydration and the alkali activation of fly ash (AAFA). Hybrid alkaline fly ash cements typically have a high fly ash (70 wt % to 80 wt %) and low clinker (20 wt % to 30 wt %) content. The clinker component favors curing at ambient temperature. A h...

As we know the road development is one of the major parts of growing infrastructure & Pune, which is expanding at a very fast rate, the construction of roads is of major concern. Fly Ash is one of the abundant forms of Solid Waste produced at thermal power plants. Its disposal is a big problem keeping both these concerns in mind it was tried to come out with a project which will integrate Road ...

in this study, the chemical characterization of solid residues, i.e., bottom ash, fly ash, and filter cake, produced from the izmit hazardous and Clinical waste incineration Plant (izAyDAS) was investigated. the izAyDAS is located in the city of kocaeli in turkey and it has been in use since 1997. Several parameters were measured, including AoX, Cl-, CN-, So4 2and selected heavy metals includin...

Self compacting concrete (SCC) is an innovative development of conventional concrete, which requires high binder content to increase its segregation resistance. This paper presents a comparative study on the use of different materials as binder content in SCC and their effects on the workability and strength properties are checked. Different combinations of Fly ash, Metakaolin and Saw dust ash ...
