Abstract Globally, fly ash (FA), generated in huge quantities from coal fired power plants is a
problematic solid waste. Utilization of FA as an ameliorant for improving soil quality has …

Coal-fired power generation is a principal energy source throughout the world.
Approximately, 70–75% of coal combustion residues are fly ash and its utilization worldwide …

Coal fly ash (CFA)-an industrial solid waste-has tremendous potential to be used as a
starting material for development of valuable porous catalysts and adsorbents because of its …

Abstract Background, Aim and Scope Historically, built areas were ignored in soil mapping
and in studies of soil formation and behaviour. It is now recognized that these areas, and …

The chemical stabilization, or immobilization, of trace elements (metals and metalloids; TE)
in contaminated soil has been studied for decades. A vast number of scientific publications …

Ashes resulting from the combustion of fuels can contain mobile compounds that may give
rise to significant pollution on disposal or during use. Source reduction has limited potential …

Growing dependence on coal-fired power plants for electrical generation in many countries
presents ongoing environmental challenges. Burning pulverized coal in thermal power …

Coal fly ash was converted into two types of porous materials, MCM-41 and SBA-15 (both of
hexagonal structure), using the supernatant of the fly ash. It was found that most of the Si …

The present study reports a green synthesis method for preparing pure (free of fly ash) and
ordered MCM-41 materials from coal fly ash at room temperature (25° C) during 24h of …

Soils formed in technogenic parent materials are proliferating, and their pedogenesis
remains inadequately understood. On investigation of soils formed in various technogenic …
