Fly ash is a by-product from the combustion of pulverized coal, and is widely used as an ingredient in hydraulic-cement concrete. Because it improves many desirable properties of concrete, it is introduced either as a separately batched material or as a component of blended cement. Fly ash reacts with the hydrating hydraulic cement to …
Fly ash in concrete contributes to a stronger, more durable, and more chemical resistant concrete mix. The main benefit of fly ash for concrete is that it not only reduces the amount of non-durable calcium hydroxide (lime), but in the process converts it into calcium silicate hydrate (CSH), which is the strongest and most durable portion of the ...

Fly Ash provides a significant contribution to sustainable construction and can contribute to the achievement of LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) points. Its use in concrete production consumes less energy and offers improved efficiency and building performance.
Fly ash is considered as one of the largest generated industrial solid wastes or so-called industrial by-products, around the world particularly in China, India, and USA. ... concrete with fly ash ...
This study investigates the use of considerable volume of groundnut shell ash as the partial replacement for cement in concrete production. A total of 100 specimens of the GSA/OPC concrete was cured in cubes of 100mm dimension for 7, 14, 21 and 28 days and the compressive strength and density determined. The percentage replacement of Ordinary …
The highway construction industry's utilization of coal fly ash has made many of our concrete pavements and bridges more durable and reduced landfill waste. However, with the shuttering of more and more coal-fired electric power plants, fly ash from coal-fired utilities is in increasingly short supply. Yet high-quality fly ash remains ...

To deal with both of those problems, the construction industry had the clever idea to start formulating concrete out of fly ash, substituting fly ash for Portland cement (the primary ingredient in most concrete).Surprisingly, fly ash has several characteristics that make it a perfect ingredient for concrete: It has great strength and durability …
Certain fly ash can be used to keep the temperature from rising too high (less than 45 degrees). However, concrete with fly ash can set up normally or even rapidly, since many other factors control the set and strength development. Freeze-thaw durability may not be acceptable with the use of fly ash in concrete.
The replacement or substitute of Portland cement with fly ash is considered by its promoters to reduce the greenhouse gas "footprint" of concrete, as the production of one ton of Portland cement produces approximately one ton of carbon dioxide (CO 2) as compared to zero CO 2 being produced using existing fly ash.
The fly ash pozzolanic properties render it beneficial for the replacement of cement in concrete (Nonavinakere and Reed, 1995, Yao et al., 2015). The FA silica reacts with calcium hydroxide released by CaO hydration producing Ca 2 SiO 4 hydrate ( González et al., 2009 ).
