In modern combustors, 95--98% of the organic mass of a solid combustible is converted into caloric energy; 2--4% remain in the fly ash captured in electrofilters and hydraulically removed in most cases. The 2--4% unburned materials in fly ash, together with the water from being hydraulically transported, make it difficult for the use of the fly ash for metal extraction or as a binder in the materials industry. This work presents the research results of a study in which the burning process was modified to result in fly ash without carbon content and fly ash removal by dry capture. Laboratory fluidized-bed combustion of lignite with and without addition of limestone for sulfur capture was used to generate ashes for further study. The ashes were studied for their use as binders and as a cement substitute.
