TLDR
Chemical analyses revealed that magnetite, hematite, and, to a lesser extent, quartz and mullite were the crystalline minerals dominating the non-magnetic fractions of coal fly ashes from SE US electric power plants.

Leaching behaviour of elements from coal combustion fly ash: An overview

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide an extensive look at the extent to which major and trace elements are leached from coal fly ash and give an insight into the factors underlying the leachability of elements and addresses the causes of the mobility.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fly ash characterization by SEM-EDS

TL;DR: In this paper, the surface and internal structure of fly ash particles were analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) to characterize twelve Class F fly ash samples from nine PC power plants in PA, WV, MD and TN.

Abundances and distribution of minerals and elements in high-alumina coal fly ash from the Jungar Power Plant, Inner Mongolia, China

TL;DR: The fly ash from the Jungar Power Plant, Inner Mongolia, China, is unique because it is highly enriched in alumina (Al2O3>50%). The fly ash mainly consists of amorphous glass and mullite and trace amounts of corundum, quartz, char, calcite, K-feldspar, clay minerals, and Fe-bearing minerals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mobility of trace elements from selected Australian fly ashes and its potential impact on aquatic ecosystems

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed batch leaching tests on fly ashes collected from four Australian power stations fuelled by chemically different coals to assess the influence of pH conditions on element mobility from the acidic and alkaline fly ashes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fly ash for soil amelioration: A review on the influence of ash blending with inorganic and organic amendments

TL;DR: In this paper, the impact of fly ash (FA) on plant species and soil quality is investigated. But, the effect is minimal in the case of weathered FA and the results reflected the heterogeneity of ash characteristics, soil types, and agro-climatic conditions.

Environmental impacts of coal combustion residues

TL;DR: A review of the information available concerning the environmental impacts associated with the disposed or utilization of coal combustion residues is presented in this paper, where the majority of the literature focused on fly and bottom ashes; other coal combustion wastes have not received much attention.

Trace elements in coal and their behaviour during combustion in a large power station

TL;DR: In this article, the role of anhydrite (CaSO4) in the sorption of trace elements such as As, B, Ge, Se, Pb, Mo, Zn and Tl from flue gas and in the reduction of emissions of potentially toxic elements was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trace element behavior in coal-fired power plants

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the relationship between the elements in different process streams and established the collection efficiency of the new generation of high-efficiency cold-side electrostatic precipitators in relation to their collection both of total particulate matter and of each individual element.
