This paper experimentally examined the recycling of combustion by-products emitted from a combined heat and power plant using lignocellulosic biomass fuel. Physical and chemical analyzes were performed on Bio-SRF and three types of wood pellet combustion by-product samples (fly-ash, FA). As a result of the experiment, the compressive strength of mortar substituted with 5, 10, and 20% of FA compared to the cement weight was found to be excellent, and its recyclability was confirmed as a substitute for existing admixtures.

2012년부터 도입된 "신재생에너지 의무할당제(RPS)"로 인하여 500MW이상의 설비 용량을 갖춘 발전소의 경우 총발전량에서 일정 비율을 신재생에너지로 공급하여야 한다. 이러한 신재생에너지 중 농업부산물은 목질계 바이오매스의 한 종류로 '탄소중립(Carbon Neutral)' 연료이며 기존 화석연료와 혼소로 활용 할 수 있는 장점을 지니고 있다. 그러나 낮은 발열량, 운송 및 저장비용, 일정하지 않은 연소특성의 문제로 인하여 대부분 노지에 방치되거나 버려지고 있다. 이러한 버려지는 농업부산물을 효율적으로 활용하기 위한 방법 중 하나로 반탄화(Torrefacation) 처리가 대두되고 있다. 반탄화 처리 시, 발열량이 증대되며, 저장과 이송에서의 이점을 갖게 된다. 그러나, 반탄화는 공정 과정중 질량손실에 따른 에너지 총량의 감소한다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 효율적인 반탄화공정을 위한 질량감소모델을 제시 하고자한다. 승온 속도(heating rate)를 $7.5^{\circ}C/min$, $15^{\circ}C/min$, $22.5^{\circ}C/min$의 조건에서의 열중량분석 결과를 토대로 속도모델식(Arrhenius method, Ingraham & Marrier method 등)을 적용하여, 반응속도상수를 도출하였다. 이 반응속도상수를 이용하여 질량감소 모델을 정립하였고, 이를 실험결과와 비교, 검증하였다.

Recently, the treatment of coal ashes produced from thermal electric power plants have been raised as a serious problem in according to the increasing of electric power demand in Korea. This paper deals with a re -use method of coal ash as a fill material. Two domestic coal ashes are mixed with cement and lime to improve the mechanical properties of coal ash. The mechanical properties such as compressive strength, compressive deformation, permeability and frost heaving property are investigated in according to the change of admixture rate, curing temperature and curing time. In this study, it is found coal ash (fly ash+bottom ash) and fly ash with 2%~3% cement can be used as a fill material, respectively. It is also found the frost heaving properties of coal ash is effectively improved by the mixture of 6%~9% cement.

In this study characteristics for reclaimed ash was studied to enlarge the usage of reclaimed ash which is reaching to 72 million ton producted from whole thermal power plants in South Korea. Fly ash and bottom ash are reclaimed separately at some of thermal power plants. However, typically bottom ash and fly ash are mixed when they are buried at most of the thermal power plant, as a result the engineering characteristics of ponded ash are not investigated properly. In order to investigate the engineering characteristics of the ponded ash, laboratory tests were performed with ponded ash and fly ash from youngheung and samcheonpo thermal power plants. Specific gravity, unit weight, and grain size analysis test were fulfilled to evaluate the physical characteristics and triaxial permeability test, direct shear test, unconfined compressive strength test, compaction test were performed to evaluate the mechanical characteristics. And also engineering characteristics of coal ash from anthracite and Bituminous thermal power plants were compared and studied respectively. As a result of the study, it was confirmed that using coal ash from Bituminous thermal power plants can be effective in the place where lightweight materials are required and using coal ash from anthracite thermal power plants can be effective as backfill material which require higher permeability. Finally, it was confirmed that fly ash from youngheung thermal power plants which has the lowest permeability among the tested material is suitable for a field requiring impermeable material.

In this study, asphalt paving filler, which satisfies the KS standards, were prepared from industrial by-products, such as fly ash generated from thermal power plants, cogeneration ash generated from cogeneration plants, and desulfurized gypsum generated from the flue-gas desulfurization process. The properties of the prepared mixed filler and the existing limestone filler were compared through laboratory tests for preparing asphalt mixture using each filler. In addition, asphalt pavement field tests were conducted using the limestone filler and mixed filler. The dynamic stability, Marshall stability, tensile strength ratio, saturation, porosity, and flow value of the asphalt mixtures used in the field test were evaluated, as was done in the laboratory test. The laboratory and field construction test results revealed outstanding tensile strength ratio, Marshall stability and dynamic stability when using the prepared filler than for the existing limestone filler. Through optimization of the mixing design, the possibility of developing fillers, which the characteristics of the existing limestone filler, was confirmed.

The purpose of this study is to expand the use of coal ash and coal slag in thermal power plants. In addition, controlled low strength materials was developed to prevent mine settlement. Bottom ash and KR slag are mixed at ratio of 7:3 to expand the use of industrial by-products through carbonate reaction and inhibit the exudation of heavy metals. In order to efficiently fill the abandon mine, workability and physical properties were evaluated according to flow. As a result of elution of harmful substance experiment, it was confirmed that the carbonation reaction inhibited the elution of heavy metals. It was confirmed that the difference in water ratio was the difference in specific surface area of the controlled low strength materials. It was confirmed that the working efficiency is excellent when the flowability is 300mm compared to 260mm. compressive strength measurement result was relatively high at 260mm compared to 300mm because the number of pores due to decrease of water ratio was small.

In this work, various wood biomasses were used to determine the combustion characteristics for the fuel of cogeneration plant. Combustion characteristics of four types, i.e., (i) forest products, (ii) recycled wood, (iii) empty fruit bunch, and (iv) palm kernel shell, were examined via thermal gravimetric analyzer (TGA) in air atmosphere and coal was used as a comparison group. From the TGA results, the combustion of the wood biomass was occurred in the range of 280 to $420^{\circ}C$, which was lower than that of coal. Forest product showed the lowest activation energy (0.4 kJ/mol) compared to that of other wood biomasses (about 6 to 14 kJ/mol) and coal (64 kJ/mol). In addition, the reaction rate constant of the wood biomass was lower than that of coal. These results indicate the higher combustion initiation rate of wood biomass due to the high content of volatile matter, which had a low boiling point.

Non-refining fly ash and bottom ash, the byproducts generated from the coal-fired power stations, have usually been disposed of in onshore ash disposal sites. With an increase of power consumption due to industrial development, the generation of coal ash has been growing tremendously. Current insufficiency of disposal sites and environmental concerns over newly-built disposal sites have also led a growing need to utilize the coal ash. Accordingly, this paper compares and analyzes the fundamental properties of the coal ash collected from each disposal sites in order to increase the usability of the coal ash generated from coal-fired power stations. The results of the study indicate that coal ash shall be separately applied by the properties for each intended use as the ash greatly differs in its properties depending on the site of disposal. In particular, it is shown that the overall evaluation on the ash shall be necessary as the quality might be varied by the change of absorptance when applied as an aggregate for concrete. From the examination on the salt content, it has been observed that the ash can be applied as an aggregate for concrete only after more than 3 times of washing process.
