Fly Ash Pelletization.

PB83201889

Publication Date	1982
Personal Author	Fuerstenau, D. W.; Mehrotra, V. P.
Page Count	82
Abstract	The use of pulverized coal for power generation results in the production of vast amounts of fly ash in the United States. This research project has been concerned with the role of the physico-chemical characteristics of fly ash in governing its pelletization and the strength of the product pellets in relation to their potential use as lightweight aggregate. The potential impact of this research is extremely great in that a severe environmental problem may be alleviated by converting a huge mineral waste into a resource.
