Sustainable Concrete: Innovative EREF-Funded Research

The new tests will allow for unconventional (i.e. ponded, reclaimed, off-spec) fly ash to be used in building construction, which will enhance concrete quality, and help alleviate the shortage of production fly ash for producers. Such changes will hopefully lead to the improvement of fly ash specifications and the greater use of unconventional fly ashes in construction. Unconventionally sourced fly ash, including that coming from landfills, has positive economic and environmental implications, and will aid in the management of fly ash and other solid waste materials in the US. https://www.waste360.com/c-and-d/circular-economy-more-sustainable-concrete-innovative-eref-funded-research
