Effect of dE-NOx techniques employed in thermal power plants on fly ash properties

Journal Title: Acta Energetica - Year 2016, Vol 29, Issue 4

Abstract

Coal fly ash, a by-product of coal combustion in thermal power plants, is one of the most complex and abundant of anthropogenic materials. For several years, fly ash has predominantly been used as a substitute for material in the construction industry, especially either as a raw material or as an additive in the cement industry all over the world. The wide implementation of low-NOx combustion technologies in pulverized coal combustion can lead to changes in fly ash properties, which may negatively affect its applicability to the production of building materials. In the study, brief characterization of current deNOx techniques, applied in power plants for efficient NOx reduction, is presented and possible alterations in fly ash utilization in concrete production are discussed.
