Original Abstract

Class C fly ash has been receiving increasing attention due to the gradual transition of thermal power plants all over the world to the fluidized bed combustion technology with sulfur dioxide emissions capture. This research investigates the utilization of class C fly ash in fired ceramic materials with simultaneous efficient and novel containment of sulfur dioxide emissions in the flue gas during firing. A number of experiments were conducted by addition of sodium water glass with different molar ratios of SiO2:Na2O, sodium carbonate, and different ratios of sodium carbonate to water glass to the class C fly ash to examine the optimal combination and quantity for the creation and formation of the mineral phase haüyne which resulted in reduction and containment of SO2 emissions. Results revealed that a 12% dose of sodium water glass with a low molar ratio of 1.7 (SiO2:Na2O) combined with class C fly ash was more effective in the formation of haüyne and the resulting decrease of SO2 in the flue gas was more substantial. The newly formed mineral phase haüyne was identified by an X-ray diffraction analysis and scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Outcomes reveal a potential for utilization of class C fly ash in the fired materials by containment of sulfur dioxide into their structure.
