The development of coal-fired power plants to ensure energy security and electricity consumption is a matter for the Vietnam economy. However, the huge amount of ash discharged is a major environmental challenge. It is estimated that by the end of 2017, the amount of ash in the country is about 40 million tons and annually emitted over 16.4 million tons. While the quantity of coal-fired power plant is rising, the ash content will increase year by year if the ash doesn't treat well. The ash will be increased from 61 million tons in 2018 to 109 million tons in 2020, 248 million tons in 2025 and 422 million tons in 2030. The difficulties of coal-fired power plants are the problem of ash handling, some plants are at risk of closure because there are not enough dump capacity to storage. Therefore, Vietnam is in need of urgent measures to treat a large amount of waste from coal-fired power plants. The specific objectives of this study were as follows: (1) provide an overview of coal ash situation produced by coal-fired power plants in Vietnam; (2) study about regulations related to coal ash treatment; (3) comprehend the literature review of the cement sector status.

This study dealt with the properties for fly ash of conbined heat power plant and application for concrete industry. For this purpose, fly ash sampled Ulsan conbined heat power plant and analyzed for physical and chemical properties. As analyzed results of fly ash, contents of $SiO_ and Al_O_ $in the fly ash of Ulsan were less than those of Thermo-electric power plant(Boryuing), but contents of CaO were tem times as much as those of Boryung, because of these differences, it is expected that pozzolanic activity of concrete using fly ash of Ulsan will be different from another fly ash. Concrete specimens were tested to evaluate concrete preformance when 10 to 50 percent of the portland cement by weight in the concrete mix was replaced with fly ash of conbined heat power plant. As test results, workability and consideration in the fresh concrete were increased and concrete strength was showed more than 400kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$ for the required age. This study would be provided valuable data for the practical utilization of fly ash(conbined heat power plant). In the future, properties of fly ash concrete including long term strength, elapsed time, pozzolanic activity, modulus of elasticity, sulfate resistance, shrinkage, freeze-thaw durability and so on will be studied.

This paper studied the cement efficiency factor (k factor) of high calcium Class F fly ash. This k factor represents a unit of fly ash with efficiency equivalent to k unit of cement. The high calcium Class F fly ash was used to replace cement in concrete. The modified Bolomey's law with linear relationship was used for the analysis of the result of compressive strength, cement to water ratio (c/w) and fly ash to water ratio (f/w) by using the multi-linear regression to determine the k factor and other constants in the equations. The results of analysis were compared with the results from other researcher and showed that the k factor of high calcium Class F fly ash depends on the fineness of fly ash, replacement level and curing age. While the amount of CaO content in Class F fly ash not evident. Furthermore, necessary criteria and variables for the determination of the k factor including the use of the k factor in concrete mix design containing fly ash were proposed.

The use of ground fly ash in concrete can increase the risk of slump loss due to the drastic surface change of the particles after the grinding treatment and the accelerated reaction compared to the untreated ash. This study is aimed at the early age hydration and time-dependent rheology changes of cement paste containing ground fly ash. An original fly ash is ground into different fineness and the hydration of cement paste containing the ground fly ash is monitored with the ultrasound propagation method. The zeta potentials of the solid particles are measured and the changes of rheological parameters of the cement pastes with time are analyzed with a rheometer. A particle packing model is used to probe packing of the solid particles. The results show that the early age hydration of the paste is strongly promoted by replacing Portland cement with fly ash up to 30 percent (by mass), causing increase of the yield stress of the paste. The viscosity of a paste containing ground fly ash is lower than that containing the untreated ash, which is explained by the denser packing of the solid particles.

Objectives : The research was conducted to confirm the effect of Acanthopanax senticosus harms(ASH) on the anti-tumor activities in AGS human gastric cancer cells. Methods : To examine the potential anti-tumor effect of ASH, we performed many experiments. After processing AGS cancer cells with varying concentrations 80% ethanol ASH extract, analyses by MTT, flow cytometer(FACS) and western blot were used. Results : AGS cancer cells showed decreased cell proliferation and increased contents of S phase when treated with ASH. Moreover, the Western blot experiment showed that ASH affected S phase cell cycle-related molecules(Cyclin A, p21 and p16) in AGS cells. ASH also inhibited EGFR-STAT3 pathway in AGS human gastric cancer cells. Conclusion : Based on these results, we observed that ASH arrested the cell cycle at S phase and inhibited the phosphorylation of EGFR and STAT3 proteins which reduce the cell cycle and the manifestation of the genes that are related to inhibiting cell growth in AGS cells. It can be concluded that ASH can be used in developing medicine for gastric cancer.

The feasibility of using volcanic ash for lead ion removal from wastewater was evaluated. The adsorption experiments were carried out in batch tests using volcanic ash that was treated with either NaOH or HCl prior to the use. Volcanic ash dose, temperature and initial Pb(II) concentration were chosen as 3 operational variables for a $2^3$ factorial design. Ash dose and concentration were found to be significant factors affecting Pb(II) adsorption. The removal of Pb(II) was enhanced with increasing volcanic ash dose and with decreasing the initial Pb(II) concentration. Pb(II) adsorption on the volcanic ash surface was spontaneous reaction and favored at high temperatures. Calculation of Gibb's free energy indicated that the adsorption was endothermic reaction. The equilibrium parameters were determined by fitting the Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms, and Langmuir model better fitted to the data than Freundlich model. BTV(base-treated volcanic ash) showed the maximum adsorption capacity($Q_{max}$) of 47.39mg/g. A pseudo second-order kinetic model was fitted to the data and the calculated $q_e$ values from the kinetic model were found close to the values obtained from the equilibrium experiments. The results of this study provided useful information about the adsorption characteristics of volcanic ash for Pb(II) removal from aqueous solution.

This study is on the application of ceramic body and art glaze by using coal ash according to each wt%. Body color was turned red and dark as increasing coal ash contents in the body and art glaze because of the effect of noncombustible carbon in $Fe_2O_3$ and coal ash. Not only pore and black core were generated but also absorptance and shrinkage were increased as increasing coal ash contents. The glaze of coal ash 20 wt% showed blue absorption band, turned red band as increasing coal ash contents, $Al_2O_3\;to\;SiO_2$ ratio got lower and became mat because glaze is estranged from $Al_2O_3\;to\;SiO_2$ mol ratio 1:10 of transparent glaze as increasing coal ash contents. Glaze showed unstable dissolving condition in the more coal ash contents.

The characteristic analysis of fly ash generated from a fired power plant using bunker-C oil has been investigated. Ash size distribution by an optical microscopy with image processing technique, morphological shape by a scanning electron microscope(SEM) and microscope, chemical composition by the inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometry(ICP), and resistivity measurement as a function of temperature and moisture content by the resistivity meter are performed. A study of physical, chemical and electrical characteristics of bunker-C fly ash plays an important role of improving the performance of an electrostatic precipitator and protecting air pollution. The samples of bunker-C fly ash for analysis were collected from the electrostatic precipitator hopper of Ulsan Power Plant Unit 1 and Pusan Power Plant Unit 1. Mass median diameter(MMD) of bunker-C fly ash was measured 12.7${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, while MMD of fly ash generated from the mixture of bunker-C oil(40%) and domestic anthracitic coal(60%) was 25.7${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. The morphological structure of bunker-C fly ash consisted of fine particles of non-spherical shape. The primary chemical components of bunker-C fly ash were composed of SiO2(2.36%), Al2O3(4.91%), Fe2O3(14.33%) and C(11.84%). Resistivity of bunker-C fly ash was found to be increased with increasing temperature at the range of 100~15$0^{\circ}C$ and was measured 103~104 ohm-cm.
