Abstract:Fly ash generation in fluidized bed combustion (FBC) is a critical issue in many countries due to its disposal is becoming increasingly restricted and expensive. Because of this, there is a demand for applications in which these types of fly ashes could be utilized efficiently. One promising use for FBC fly ashes is as a cement replacement material in mortar and concrete. The current concrete regulations do not allow the use FBC fly ash as a supplementary cementitious material, but it can be expected to be inc… Show more
“…A fact that can foresee a positive contribution of particle size reduction on their reactivity. It is possible that the contribution of BFA to the screed mortars strength The satisfactory results obtained in this work with 17 wt.% OPC substitution by as received BFA, are in agreement with other studies that pointed for 20 wt.% OPC replacement as the maximum recommended level [4,6,19,23,24]. Fořt et al [18] suggested 30 wt.% as maximum OPC replacement level.…”

“…The use of BFA1 and BFA2 (as received or pre-treated) as OPC substitute promote, in general, a deterioration of the mechanical properties. The same result was achieved by other authors [4,6,23,24]. The mechanical resistance of the specimens prepared with the as-received ashes is as lower as higher is the ash amount, as reported in previous works [4,6,18,23].…”

“…Ohenoja et al [24] evaluated the benefits of using pre-treated (air-jet classification and grinding) FA as a substitute of 20 wt.% of OPC in cement-based mortars (CEM I 52.5 R-SR5). Three FA types generated from the combustion in bubbling fluidized bed boilers of different mixtures of fuels (peat, wood and wastes) were evaluated.…”
Substitute Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) by biomass fly ash (BFA) reduce the environmental impact produced by cement-based materials, and at the same time, decreased the economic and environmental burden associated with the landfilling of this waste. This study aims to evaluate the recycling of BFA as supplementary cementitious materials (SCMs) in a commercial screed mortar formulation. Two BFA varieties, both resulting from fluidized bed combustion of forest residues, were used to replace 17, 50, and 67 wt.% of OPC. The influence of simple pre-treatment processes of the BFA, such as sieving and grinding, in the fresh and hardened state properties of the mortars, was evaluated. The BFAs were characterized in terms of chemical (XRF) and mineralogical (XRD) composition, particle size distribution (laser diffraction-COULTER) and morphology (SEM). The prepared formulations were characterized in terms of workability, mass loss upon curing, bulk density, sorptivity (by immersion and capillary), flexural and compressive strength and durability to 25 freeze–thaw cycles. Both of the BFAs are potential SCMs. Substitution of 17 wt.% OPC with BFA complied with the product technical requirements for compressive and flexural strength (10 and 3 MPa, respectively), with the ground and sieved and just sieved BFAs perform slightly better than the as-received BFA.
