This paper addresses the issue of the influence of cement consumption, plasticizing additive, and compaction time on the strength and frost resistance of concrete manufactured with bottom ash slags from thermal power plants. The investigation was carried out using the three-factor experiment with variables varied at three levels. There were received response functions, which characterize the correlation between frost resistance and variables: cement consumption, plasticizer additives and compaction time. An analysis of the surface of the response function, where the frost resistance of the concrete was accepted as a response, revealed the optimal correlation between the components of the mixture and the compaction time of the seal. By using the STATISTICA 12 software complex, the values of the factors were specified, when the optimal components ratio with GLENIUM 51 superplasticizer is achieved for the production of concrete with high frost resistance that is greater than F300. The conclusions quantify the results of the investigation.

Process Modification

Thermal power plants are of great environmental importance in terms of the huge amounts of wastes that they produce. Although there are process-wise differences among these energy production systems, they all depend on the logic of burning out a fuel and obtaining thermal energy to rotate the turbines. Depending on the process modification and the type of fuel burned, the wastes produced in each step of the overall process may change. In this study, the most expected process and non-process wastes stemming from different power generation processes have been identified and given their European Waste Codes. Giving priority to the waste minimization options for the most problematic wastes from thermal power plants, waste management strategies have been defined. In addition, by using the data collected from site visits, from the literature and provided by the Turkish Republic Ministry of Environment and Urbanization, waste generation factor ranges expressed in terms of kilogram of waste per energy produced annually (kg/MWh) have been estimated. As a result, the highest generation was found to be in fly ash (24–63 for imported coal, 200–270 for native coal), bottom ash (1.3–6 for imported coal, 42–87 for native coal) and the desulfurization wastes (7.3–32) produced in coal combustion power plants. The estimated waste generation factors carry an important role in that they aid the authorities to monitor the production wastes declared by the industries.

In Vietnam, a large amount of coal bottom ash (CBA) is being discharged from thermal power plants and has been making serious environmental pollution. It is essential to utilize the CBA to reduce environmental pollution. So, this paper presents a series of experimental studies in the laboratory using CBA as a partial replacement of aggregates in concrete pavement for rural roads. In mixing concrete, the CBA is utilized to replace 15, 30, and 100% aggregates. The design of the composition must achieve the technical requirement of M-30 grade of concrete. A total 351 of specimens were tested on workability of fresh concrete, abrasion, compressive strength, and flexural tensile strength in order to achieve the technical requirement of concrete pavement for rural roads. Based on the experimental results, in order to achieve the required compressive strength, An Khanh CBA concrete uses more content of cement and water than control concrete; Cao Ngan CBA is only utilized to replace 15% aggregates, and Cao Ngan CBA concrete also uses more cement and water than control concrete. It also shown that the amount of water and cement content depend on types of CBA and the water amount and cement content of CBA concrete are larger than those of control concrete. The advantage of mixture CBA concrete is abrasion, and flexural tensile strength achieved the value as per the technical requirement.

The paper presents the compressive strength of mortar samples when replacing natural sand by bottom ash of An Khanh and Cao Ngan thermal power plants (TPPs) in Thai Nguyen province. Experimental research is the main method applied in this research. Research results show that replacing natural sand by bottom ash in the two TPPs, the compressive strength of samples reached the required mortar’s strength. The compressive strength of the mortar sample replaced all-natural sand, particularly for masonry mortar and plastering mortar, is 10.9 MPa and 16.4 MPa respectively for An Khánh TTP, and 12.7 MPa and 12.6 MPa for Cao Ngan TTP, while the compressive strength of the motar used all natural sand, reached 13.2 MPa and 8.6 MPa.

Day By Day

Since  the  construction  industry  is  developing  very  fast  the  requirement  of  concrete  and  their constituent  materials are also increasing day by day. Hence the need becomes in evitable to find various alternate means for the aggregate and accordingly the researchers are going on in this way. But the availability of fine aggregate becomes difficult day by day.  Hence the need arises to find alternative for the fine aggregate. The material which is known as bottom ash is available ash waste by-product material from the thermal power plants.  In  India  most  of  the  thermal  power plants  use  wet  system  for disposal of ash. Bottom ash will be generated as a residue after burning pulverised coal at boiler cyclone and collected from bottom ash hopper located under boiler structure. In this project work the material bottom ash is experimentally analysed and studied for its suitability as replacement as fine aggregate up to (0% to 50%). So far few researchers analysed its suitability as FA by finding the compressive strength of concrete. But  in  this  project  work the  split  tensile  strength  of  concrete  and  flexural  strength  of concrete were analysed by replacing bottom ash as fine aggregate.

Stated Problem

This paper brings out the results of experimental work carried out in the laboratory to evaluate the effectiveness of using bottom ash with geogrid for soil stabilization by studying the compaction and strength characteristics for use as a sub-grade material. Bottom ash is a waste material which is obtained from thermal power plants. This waste imposes hazardous effect on environment and human health. This material cannot be disposed of properly and their disposal is not economical. Utilization by exploiting their inherent properties is the one of the way to solve the above stated problem. The effect of mixing different proportions of bottom ash with geogrid in clayey soil on compaction, UCS and California bearing ratio have been studied in this study.

In a recent updating world moves related to automation and its improvements but only thread to pause to its electricity. Because it could not be automated and its need to be generated by using different way of methods. In that the Electricity is one the greatest demands that keeps increasing day by day. To feed its supply the necessity of improved power generation techniques is in need. Combustion of coal is one of the traditional methods of producing electricity in developing countries like India. So, it is necessary to have a good optimized boiler to generate power in thermal power plants. The coal fed in should be completely utilized for combustion as the coal is imported at a high rate. But the amount of un-burnt carbon found in the bottom ash slips down the efficiency of a boiler. Here we are going to analyses the causes for more number of un-burnt in bottom ash and methodology to reduce it thereby the efficiency of the boiler gets increased.
