Utilization of Coal and Biomass Ash
Sustainable utilization of the ash generated from the combustion of coal or biomass is a big challenge for the power industry. Huge quantities of ash are generated and, in general, they are disposed-off in ash ponds. However, recent regulatory requirement

Coal and Biomass: More than just energy resources
Preface
Generation of huge amounts of ash from combustion of coal and biomass in power plants is a major concern for the environmental managers and technologists of the plants. China, India, USA, Japan, and Korea are the major coal producers of the world. Recent regulations in many countries demand 100% utilization of the ashes produced after combustion for generating energy. The heterogeneous nature of the coal and biomass ashes, wide varieties of the utilization options available, and the environmental issues associated with the ash made the subject of ash very interesting and challenging. Our research on coals and
