Opis

About 120 coal-based thermal power stations are in India and Fly ash is a major issue because electricity generation in the country would remain predominantly coal-based for a couple of coming decades. The coal being made available to thermal power stations has ash content in relatively large proportions. The ash generation has increased to about 131 million tonne during 2015-16 and shall continue to grow. A large number of technologies have been developed for gainful utilization and safe management of fly ash under the concerted efforts of Fly Ash Mission of the GOI since 1994. As a result, the utilization of fly ash has increased to over 73 million tonne in the past few years. Therefore, the book is a study on technology forecasting and technology assessment for utilizing fly ash in constructing embankments in Indian perspective. Then the ISM approach is used to find the relationship between various critical research factors.
