Abstract
Coals from ten different mines were burned under monitored conditions in three different types of coal fired utility boilers in order to determine the influence of coal composition and boiler combustion conditions on the leaching and sorbent characteristics of the fly ash produced. The leaching and removal exhibited by the fly ashes with regard to pH, Cd, Sn, Ni, Pb, Mo, Cu, Fe, Cr, Zn, Mn, As and organics were examined. Results indicate that the leachable elements are contained to some extent within a water soluble component in low and high fusion fly ashes. The leachable amounts of each element are in general related to the bulk composition of the elements in the coal from which the fly ash is produced and the size of the fly ash particles.
