ASH HANDLING IN POWER PLANTS

By:ALOK PRAKASHPG-ICE/136309

BRIEF FLOW OF PRESENTATION

• Sources of ash

• Overview of ash handling

• Types of ash handling

• Main parts of dry and wet ash handling

• Applications of fly ash

• Burning of pulverized coal in furnace results in the generation of large quantity of ash. this ash constitutes of 80-90% of dry ash and 10-20% of bottom ash.

• Fly ash is one of the residues generated in combustion, and comprises of fine particles that rises with the flue gases.
