zeolite was synthesized from coal tailings and coal fly ash sampled from zarand coal washing plant, iran, using h2o2–promoted hydrothermal treatment. samples consisted mainly of sio2 and al2o3 which are the main components for the zeolite synthesis. to perform the experiments, appropriate amount of the starting materials were mixed with 240 ml volume of 30% h2o2 at room temperature with continu...

A new catalyst was prepared by promoting fly ash with hydrogen peroxide. The catalytic activity of H2O2 promoted fly ash (HPFA) was evaluated by synthesis 5(4H)-oxazolone and imidazolone derivatives under solvent free conditions. The possible mechanisms of synthesis reactions were also suggested. These proposed methods benefit in terms of low-cost catalyst, high yields, ease of workup, survival...

An efficient and convenient method for degradation of Acid orange 3 (AO3) dye from aqueous solution by combination of Fly ash/H2O2 and ultrasound irradiation is reported. The effects of the relevant operating conditions (pH value, dye concentration, H2O2 concentration, dosage of Fly ash and different reaction system) on the degradation of AO3 were also observed. The combination method was found...

A study was conducted to evaluate the leaching potential of unpaved road materials (URM) mixed with lime activated high carbon fly ashes and to evaluate groundwater impacts of barium, boron, copper, and zinc leaching. This objective was met by a combination of batch water leach tests, column leach tests, and computer modeling. The laboratory tests were conducted on soil alone, fly ash alone, an...

plants firing fuel oil produce huge quantities of fly ash as solid waste, which needs to becharacterized prior to its proper management. it is worth mentioning that the published literature lackcomprehensive information on the characteristics of such fly ash. characteristics of fuel oil fly ash producedat selected power (pp) and water desalination (dp) plants were determined. the results showed...

Abstract Background: Photocatalytic process is used as a suitable method for o-chlorophenol removal. In this study, the efficiency of a mixture of modified fly ash and TiO2 nanoparticles in photocatalytic removal of o-chlorophenol was evaluated. Methods: After acid washing of fly ash, the absorbent was oxidized with potassium permanganate. ...

the total coal and lignite consumption of the thermic power plants in turkey is approximately 55 million tons and nearly 15 million tons of fly ash is produced. the remarkable increase in the production of fly ash and its disposal in an environmentally friendly manner is increasingly becoming a matter of global concern. studies for the utilization of fly ash in turkey are necessary to reduce en...

This study was carried out to evaluate the effects of blended ash mixture on mechanical properties of concrete. In this study two reference mixtures were used. One of the mixtures was a no-fly ash mixture, and the other mixture contained 35% unblended Class C fly ash. Additional mixtures were composed of three blends of Class C and Class F fly ash while maintaining a total fly ash content of 40...

In this paper, the influence of fly ash content on concrete surface chloride concentration was investigated through periodical tests of surface chloride concentration of concrete by immersing three kinds of concrete specimens in 5.0 wt.% sodium chloride solution. One kind of specimen is common concrete without fly ash, whereas the other two kinds of specimens are mixed with fly ash. The results...
