Progressive utilisation prospects of coal fly ash: A review
Abstract
The rapid surge in global energy needs has paved way for the development of various alternatives to natural resources every now and then. However, dependence on coal-based energy has not reduced greatly. Thus, massive quantities of coal fly ash (CFA) are generated worldwide, which is a serious threat to ecology owing to constraints associated with its storage and disposal. There exists a pressing and ongoing need to develop new, and green product streams from CFA to reduce the threat to the environment. The present review begins with an emphasis on the generation, physicochemical properties, and potential dangers of CFA. Then, it focuses on impending applications such as synthesis of geopolymers (alternative to cement), silica aerogels (insulating materials), carbon nanotubes (carbon allotropes) for electronic devices, and the separation of radioactive isotopes as well as rare earth elements from CFA. Furthermore, the review analyses factors restraining the motive for effective management strategies that drives utilisation of CFA (either in raw and processed state) for new product streams. Finally, the review elucidates the role of CFA as an emerging input in delivering eco-friendly amenities and future derivatives.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
