Fly ashes, production

The density of the class C fly ash product is slightly higher than that of class F. This difference may be because class F ash contains more carbon and, hence, is slightly lighter. Since the ash and the binder powders have nearly the same density, the ash loading has hardly any effect on the density. Overall, the ash products are approximately 25% lighter than the corresponding cement products. [Pg.162]

A batch of 150 kg of fly ash was collected at the electrostatic precipitator of a pulverised coal-fired power station in Belgium where the flue gases are directly fed to the precipitator without previous setting or filtering. Using coal with a typical ash content of 25% w/w, the hourly fly ash production is up to 7 tons. The collected quantity of 150 kg represented an output of approximately two minutes. The temperature of the ash at the collection port was about 80°C. The short duration of collection and storage was in favour of the homogeneity of the material. [Pg.457]

A zeolitised fly ash product was successfully used as a low-cost adsorbent for cationic and anionic dyes. Equilibrium and kinetic results obtained in this study may be useful for designing a treatment plant for dye removal from industrial coloured effluents. [Pg.444]

Coal typically contains several percent mineral matter and is a huge source of ash in power generation. The most efficient means of burning coal is to grind it to a powder and blast it into a burner much like oil injected into a furnace. As a result, the fly ash product consisting of metal oxides, silicates, and some unburned elemental carbon is ejected from the furnace and must be collected before... [Pg.228]

Pozzolanic materials such as natural poz-zolans (volcanic origin), fly ash (product of combustion of carbon in thermoelectric power stations) or silica fume (very fine powder obtained as waste in the metallurgy of silicon or iron-silicon alloys) do not contain calcium oxide and thus cannot react with water. Instead, these pozzolanic materials react with the free lime (produced by the OPC clinker) according to the pozzolanic reaction... [Pg.946]

The high temperatures in the MHD combustion system mean that no complex organic compounds should be present in the combustion products. Gas chromatograph/mass spectrometer analysis of radiant furnace slag and ESP/baghouse composite, down to the part per biUion level, confirms this behef (53). With respect to inorganic priority pollutants, except for mercury, concentrations in MHD-derived fly-ash are expected to be lower than from conventional coal-fired plants. More complete discussion of this topic can be found in References 53 and 63. [Pg.424]

Spheres. HoUow spherical fillers have become extremely useflil for the plastics industry and others. A wide range of hoUow spherical fillers are currently available, including inorganic hoUow spheres made from glass, carbon, fly ash, alumina, and 2h conia and organic hoUow spheres made from epoxy, polystyrene, urea—formaldehyde, and phenol—formaldehyde. Although phenol—formaldehyde hoUow spheres are not the largest-volume product, they serve in some important appHcations and show potential for future use. [Pg.308]

Industrial by-products are becoming more widely used as raw materials for cement, eg, slags contain carbonate-free lime, as well as substantial levels of silica and alumina. Fly ash from utility boilers can often be a suitable feed component, because it is already finely dispersed and provides silica and alumina. Even vegetable wastes, such as rice hull ash, provide a source of silica. Probably 50% of all industrial by-products are potential raw materials for Pordand cement manufacture. [Pg.292]

Po22olans iaclude natural materials such as diatomaceous earths (see Diatomite), opaline cherts, and shales, tuffs, and volcanic ashes or pumicites, and calciaed materials such as some clays and shales. By-products such as fly ashes and siUca fume are also employed. In the United States the proportion of po22olan iaterground with clinker has varied from 15 to over 30%, whereas ia Italy, cements with a 30—40% po22olan content are produced. [Pg.294]

The problems with the combustion reaction occur because the process also produces many other products, most of which are termed air pollutants. These can be carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, oxides of sulfur, oxides of nitrogen, smoke, fly ash, metals, metal oxides, metal salts, aldehydes, ketones, acids, polynuclear hydrocarbons, and many others. Only in the past few decades have combustion engineers become concerned about... [Pg.78]

Figure 30-lA presents the integrated environmental control potential for maximum control of particulate matter and SO2. Cooling tower water blowdown and treatment by-products may be used to satisfy scrubber makeup requirements. Fly ash and scrubber sludge will be produced separately. If the catalytic NO, process is required, the integration issues will be increased significantly. [Pg.492]

The chlorine content of the fly ash is 4.9 %, the bromine content 0.065 %. A series of brominated aromatic compounds has been adsorbed on this fly ash and treated for 1 h. with air at 300°C. The extraction and analysis yield mixed brominated/chlorinated as well as completely chlorinated products. This is shown for 5 aromatic bromine compounds in Table 2. [Pg.377]

If tars are formed (which happened in the trial with mixed PVC waste), it is necessary to apply a partial oxidation to convert these tars into gaseous products. Via a quench, HCl is recovered from the product stream which consists of fuel gas and HCl. After purification the HCl can be used for producing ethylene dichloride (EDC) via oxychlorination. The recovery of CI2 is more then 90%, in general 94%-97%. Inert materials in the feed, such as the chalk and metal stabilisers present in a PVC-formulation, are separated from the flue gas as fly ash or will be set free as a bleed from the circulating sand. [Pg.14]

Improved Materials Processing and Recycling Techniques that Reduce Energy Consumption and GHG Production (e.g., reduction of Portland cement use by substitution of industrial waste products such as fly ash, which has several side-benefits). [Pg.66]

The management or disposal of metals and ash, other by-products of the combustion process, also causes concern. Ash is an inert solid material composed primarily of carbon, salts, and metals. During combustion, most ash collects at the bottom of the combustion chamber (bottom ash). When this ash is removed from the combustion chamber, it may be considered hazardous waste via the derived-from rule or because it exhibits a characteristic. Small particles of ash (particulate matter that may also have metals attached), however, may be carried up the stack with the gases (fly ash). These particles and associated metals are also regulated by the combustion regulations, as they may carry hazardous constituents out of the unit and into the atmosphere. Since combustion will not destroy inorganic compounds present in hazardous waste, such as metals, it is possible that such... [Pg.457]

Products that are suited to long-distance transportation usually have a wide range of particle size (e.g., fly ash, d = 1 to 300 pm), and it is difficult to represent adequately such materials by the single diameter required by most models... [Pg.741]

PCDDs are present as trace impurities in some commercial herbicides and chlorophenols. They can be formed as a result of photochemical and thermal reactions in fly ash and other incineration products. Their presence in manufactured chemicals and industrial wastes is neither intentional nor desired. The chemical and environmental stability of PCDDs, coupled with their potential to accumulate in fat, has resulted in their detection throughout the global ecosystem. The number of chlorine atoms in PCDDs can vary between one and eight to produce up to 75 positional isomers. Some of these isomers are extremely toxic, while others are believed to be relatively innocuous. [Pg.1023]

Sealosafe A family of processes for encapsulating inorganic and organic wastes in a cementitious material suitable for landfill. The product, known as Stablex, is made from a cement and an aluminosilicate and may incorporate pulverized fly ash. Developed by C. Chappell in the United Kingdom in the 1970s and now operated in a number of countries. Offered by the Stablex Corporation, Radnor, PA. The environmental acceptability of the product has since been criticized. [Pg.239]

A source of fly ash particulates is the mineral matter in the biomass feedstock. As material is gasified, the inorganic matter from the feedstock may be either retained in the gasifier bed or entrained in the product gas and swept out from the reactor. The mineral concentrations in clean wood are typically 1 to 2%, and herbaceous crops may contain up to 10% or more. Crop residues such as straw or rice hulls typically contain 15 to 20% inorganic material. Mineral matter... [Pg.127]
