The flue gases of combustion-type power plants contain small, respirable ash andfume particles which originate from the inorganic species in the fuel. Coalburning power plants, for example, have a notorious reputation for spewing outflue gas particles originating from the mineral mater in the coal. These fluegas particles (10 microns in diameter) must be characterized for two reasons:1) to deter ...

The problem addressed in this project is the need to monitor oxides of nitrogen(NOx, ie NO and NO2) levels in the combustion gases of stationary sources suchas power plants in order to facilitate on-line control of the scrubbers that willbe used to remove those pollutants. Since the measurements are in the parts permillion range, simpler and less expensive instruments than those currently used,su ...

Out of 50 million tons of fly ash generated each year in the United States, only27% is reused or recycled. The remaining 73% is landfilled which presentspotential environmental problems in the future. This projects main objective isto develop a new class of construction material from the Chemically Activated FlyAsh (CAFA) in conjunction with fine and coarse aggregates, and determinepertinent mec ...
