What is the purpose of ash drying?

  Fly ash is a solid waste produced by coal-fired power plants after burning coal powder. It is mainly composed of fly ash and bottom ash. Fly ash particles are fine, while bottom ash contains more impurities. Due to its high moisture content, direct use of fly ash will affect its performance, and large-scale stacking will cause environmental pollution. Fly ash dryers convert wet fly ash into dry fly ash suitable for industrial use through drying, thereby achieving resource utilization and environmental protection.

  Purpose of ash drying

  1. Availability of materials

  After drying, the moisture content of fly ash is reduced, and it can be directly used in the production of building materials such as cement, mortar, concrete, etc. to improve its performance and quality.

  2. Improve mechanical properties

  The moisture in fly ash will affect its mechanical properties in prefabricated products. After drying, the negative impact of moisture on material properties can be eliminated

  3. Reduce environmental pollution

  Dried fly ash can replace some natural resources such as clay and reduce damage to the environment.

  4. Promote sustainable development

  The recycling of fly ash helps to achieve a circular economy, reduce waste landfill, and reduce environmental burden.

  Applications of fly ash after drying

  1. Building materials

  Dried fly ash can be used as an admixture for cement, mortar, and concrete to improve its workability and durability.

  2. Agriculture and soil improvement

  Fly ash can be used as a soil conditioner to improve soil structure and soil fertility.

  3. Industrial raw materials

  Dried fly ash can be used to produce sintered bricks, autoclaved aerated concrete and other building materials.

  4. Other uses

  Fly ash can also be used in road paving, dam construction, port construction and other projects.
