“…The chemical composition-iron content-and long exposure to high boiler temperatures determine the general characteristics of fly-ash particles (Fisher et al 1976).

These hollow particles imply gas generation in the presence of a molten mineral; indeed, a molten phase and the concurrent release of CO 2 gas occur between 1,200°C-1,400°C during coal burning (Lin et al 1994;Song et al 2011).…”
