Abstract

Heating plants and power stations using coal as a fuel are employed worldwide as energy sources, consequently generating large quantities of fly ashes. Only a small part of these fly ashes are used as a secondary raw material. Most commonly, fly ash is deposited at sludge bed where it poses substantial ecological risks. Possibilities of utilizing fly ashes are mainly found in the construction industry; however, utilization of fly ash with a high content of unburned coal residues, expressed by loss on ignition (LOI), is limited to 2-5% LOI by the European standard STN EN 206-1. That is why fly ash with a high content of unburned coal residues is deposited at sludge bed. Fly ash deposition, hand in hand with exogenous and biogenous factors, changes the chemical and phase composition of fly ashes so the possibility for their further utilization as a secondary rawmaterial is evenmore diminished.
