DRYING OF CENOSPHERES RECOVERED BY THE WET-BASED METHOD FROM COAL FLY ASH FOR THEIR RATIONAL USE

Since slag and coal fly ash (CFA) are major global pollutants produced by thermal power plants (TPPs), special attention should be paid to their rational disposal. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to study the morphology of CFA and it was suggested that the use potential of CFA is high due to the presence of a large number of cenospheres (CSs), that can be recovered mostly by wet methods for the production of the wide range of products with improved properties.
