The disposal of post methanated diluted effluent (PMDE) from the distillery and fly ash from the thermal power plants has assumed a cosmic dimension in India because they are produced in huge quantities. Thus, their gainful utilization is imperative. In the present paper their gainful utilization for sustainable development has been discussed herein. The results have revealed that the electrica...

BACKGROUND U.S. military perception of nuclear warfare led to countless unethical nuclear experiments performed on unsuspecting individuals without their informed consent. As evidenced here, subsequent perception of weather warfare has led to exposing millions of unsuspecting individuals to toxic coal fly ash with no public disclosure, no informed consent, and no health warnings. METHODS Thre...

In this study, the treatment of fly ash and steel making slag in aqueous ammonia chloride has been conducted. These zero-value wastes have distinctively high concentrations of magnesium, calcium and iron. The ammonium chloride has been employed as the leaching reagent to extract MgO out of fly ash and slag, and the dissolved cations in the leachate were subsequently precipitated by carbonation....

： About 500 million tons (Mt) fly ash produces from coal-fired power stations every year in China, which causes severe economic and environmental problems. In this paper, current status and prospect of fly ash utilization in China was introduced in detail. China is a huge country which has many different geographical environments and various level of economic development. So, the level and meth...

Fly ash is one of the surplus products created in the combustion process. In industry, fly ash usually refers to ash produced during combustion of coal and is usually taken from the chimneys of thermal power plants. Currently, in Vietnam burning coal to generate electric energy are necessary. Fly ash discharged occupied huge area and polluting the environment. Thus the study of fly ash recyclin...

In this study, four Class F fly ashes were studied with a scanning electron microscope; the glassy phases were identified and their compositions quantified using point compositional analysis with k-means clustering and multispectral image analysis. The results showed that while the bulk oxide contents of the fly ashes were different, the four fly ashes had somewhat similar glassy phase composit...

Leaching of fluoride from fly ash has been studied at different ash/water ratios and temperatures and also over a broad range of pH. The efficiency of leaching was only slightly dependent on the ash/water ratio, thus revealing a solubilitycontrolled mechanism of the process. The efficiency was also independent of the temperature over the range 20 90°C.

The South African mining industry has been the backbone of the country’s economy for much of the past century. Mining has, however, often caused the degradation of productive soils. The amendment of these soils is often very expensive and often not sustainable. The University of Pretoria in cooperation with Eskom TSI, has over the past seven years conducted a series of trials. These trials have...

Unburned carbon (UC) is the major source of organic contaminants in municipal solid waste (MSW) fly ash. So most organic contaminants can be removed by the removal of the UC from the MSW fly ash. In this paper, we first used a technique of column flotation to remove UC from MSW fly ash. The influences of column flotation parameters on the recovery efficiency of UC were systematically studied. I...

Understanding the mechanisms involved in the formation of dioxins in fly ash is necessary in the control of dioxin emission. Dioxins are secondarily formed in a post-combustion zone, which is considered to occur primarily on and in fly ash, as first described by Stiegltiz and Vogg [1]. According to many studies, copper compounds are regarded as influential catalysts that generate large amounts ...
