USE OF FLY ASH IN CONCRETE: A REVIEW

Journal of Latest Technology in Engineering & Management (IJLTEM) www.ijltem.com ISSN: 2456-1770 USE OF FLY ASH IN CONCRETE: A REVIEW Abstract: Portland cement concrete industry has grown in recent years. The demand for Portland cement concrete material has increased due to increases in infrastructure. Fly ash concrete has economic and environmental advantage. It also makes concrete sustainable. This paper presents a general review of fly ash derived from the combustion of fossil coal for energy production. Fly ash is generally considered as a waste material and the physical, chemical properties of fly ash are similar to cement, which allows us to use in In India, less than 50% of fly ash is consumed and cement is responsible for 7% of total world carbon dioxide emissions. Carbon dioxide is the main threat in causing global warming and all attempts have been made to reduce carbon dioxide emission in environment but cement has not found a suitable replacement for it till date. Fly ash concrete is an effort in reducing cement content of construction. This paper presents a detailed review about fly ash in The effect of fly ash on compressive strength, tensile strength, surface tensile strength, flexural strength is discussed in this paper.

A Huge quantity of fly ash generated at coal based thermal power plant if not managed pollutes the air, water, and soil but fly ash is also a useful resource material. When pulverized coal is burnt to generate heat, the residue contains 80% fly ash and 20% bottom ash. The ash carried away by flue gas collected at economizer, air pre-heater and ESP hoppers. Clinker type ash collected in the water impounded hopper below the boiler is called bottom ash (Parisarmahiti.kar.nic, 2007). Thermal power plants in India consume about 536.64 million tons of coal and produce near about 145044.80 MW power. This produces approximately 176.74 million tons of fly ash out of which only 63.97% is being utilized for production of cement, construction of embankments and roads, mine filling, agriculture, making bricks, tiles and building materials, etc. (Central Electricity Authority. 2015-16) [12] Besides that, other materials like fertilizers, steel, paper, chemical, etc. A major problem faced by many industries worldwide is the handling and disposal of fly ash which gets generated in uncontrollable volume.

A large amount of fly ash produced if not utilized in the right direction then it will be hazardous to the environment. Table.2. Fly ash utilization during the year (2014-2015) S.Nu.

Since 1996-97 to 2015-16 increase in fly ash production observed so the consumption (9.63% in 1996-97 to 60.97% in 2015-16). Type of ash used (Mihirrathod et.al.)[18]:- i. Fly ash: - This kind of ash is extracted from flue gasses through electrostatic precipitator in dry from. This ash is fine materials and possesses good pozzolanic property. ii. Bottom ash: - This kind of ash is collected in the bottom of the boiler furnace. It is comparatively coarse materials and contains higher unburnt carbon. It possesses zero or little pozzolanic property. iii. Pond ash: - Both fly ash and bottom ash with a large quantity of water to make it in slurry form and deposited in ponds wherein water gets drained away. iv. Mound ash: - Fly ash and bottom ash or both mixed in any proportion and deposited in dry form in the shape of a mound is termed as mound ash. Physical properties of fly ash: - i. Very fine. ii. Light weight (Density: - 1.97-2.80g/cc). iii. Spherical (Specific surface area, 4000-10000 cm 2 /g with diameter=1.0-1.150u). iv. FA is grey to blackish grey and is dependent on coal type and combustion process. v. FA has dielectric property. Chemical properties of fly ash: - i. Fly ash content Sio 2, Al 2 o 3, Fe 2 o 3, Cao, Mgo. ii. Fly ash is classified into two class- class C and class F. This class is based on the amount of lime. a. Class C- Lignite and sub-bituminous coal (>10% Cao). b. Class F- Bituminous (<10% Cao). Oxides of silicon, aluminum, calcium and iron in FA are responsible for pozzolanic activity which decreases by the loss of ignitions. Volume 2 Issue 2 page 30

The effect of fly ash on the properties of (Norshahrizannordin et.al.)[17]:- Property. Effects of fly ash. Fresh concrete 1. Improved workability. 2. Reduced water demands for most fly ash. 3. Produced concrete with more cohesive and segregate less improved pump ability. 4. Reduced bleeding especially at high replacement level. Set time 1. Extended especially in cold water. 2. Can increase or retarded the setting time for the certain combination of fly ash. Heat of hydration 1. Reduced for class F fly ash at a normal level of replacement but class C fly ash at a higher level of replacement. 2. Increased in a reduction by using high levels of replacements. Permeability and chloride resistance 1. Reduced by time Expansion 1. Reduced. 2. Sufficient levels of replacement can completely suppress deleteriously. Resistance to carbonation 1. Decreased when a high level of fly ash are used in poorly curved, low strength Effluent and disposal of fly ash (Manoj Kumar Tiwari et.al.)[19]: - The high disposal cost is a Rs.50-100/MT and large area of land required for disposal of fly ash. This is the major problem with coal based thermal power plant. All elements below 92 atomic numbers are present in coal ash. According to the environmental agency of Japan [JEAN, 1973]. Shows that coal ash satisfies the criteria for landfill disposal. According to the hazardous waste management and handle rule of 1989, fly ash is considered as non-hazardous. Fly ash disposal in ash pond, the total land requires for ash disposal would be about 82,200 ha by the year 2020 at an estimated 0.6 ha per MW. Fly ash can be treated as a by-product rather than waste (Matani, 1982). Fly ash- Hazards to environment and life:- A. Contain toxic metal (U, Th, Cr, Pb, Hg, Cd, etc.) which may have negative effects on human health and plants. B. SO 2, NO 2 released from TPP causes acid rain. C. It may also affect agricultural by causing yellowing of green leaves. Volume 2 Issue 2 page 31
