Dump ash and slag mixtures and features of their composition and properties
The main sources of thermal energy are thermal power plants and thermal power plants, which annually generate more than 50 million tons of industrial waste in the form of ash and slag, and about 1.5 billion tons of ash and slag waste have already accumulated in ash dumps. This is a problem for the ecology of the region, however, this waste can be a source of raw materials for the construction industry. The article provides an overview of the chemical composition of ash and slag waste from the local industry and their main properties.
