| Abstract: | Current annual production of fly ash, a by-product from coal based thermal power plants (TPPs), is 112 million
tonnes (MT). Some of the problems associated with fly ash are large area of land required for disposal and toxicity associated
with heavy metal leached to groundwater. This review presents different ways of using fly ash and policies of Govt of India
regarding utilization and disposal of fly ash. Environmental and occupational health hazards associated with fly ash are also
discussed. |
