1.7.2 Coal Bottom Ash in Self-Compacting Concrete Coal Bottom Ash has gained a great consideration as an alternative for replacing fine aggregates. Coal Bottom Ash has physical characteristics are same as that of naturally found sand which makes it suitable for replacing sand in concrete. Coal Bottom Ash represents good pozzolanic element reactivity when it comes in contact with finer elements. Many researchers in their research work claimed that the properties of Self-Compacting Concrete comprised

Chromium in the cement can originate from: 1) raw materials or fuel‚ 2) magnesia-chrome kiln refractory brick‚ if used‚ 3) wear metal from raw mill grinding process‚ if chromium alloys are used‚ and 4) additions such as gypsum‚ pozzolans‚ ground granulated blast furnace slag‚ mineral components‚ and cement kiln dust. The cement process‚ specifically kiln conditions‚ can influence how much Cr (VI) will form. In the kiln‚ oxidizing atmosphere will play the largest role‚ with more

lack of durability and homogeneity. Since cement is the only binding material in concrete and due to recent hike in its price‚ researchers have been looking for apt substitutes. Fly-Ash has been discovered as a suitable supplement. Fly-Ash being a pozzolan reduces the cost of construction and is used for making green concrete‚ so its adoption enables more sustainability in the concrete industry The disposal of fly ash is a serious
