A number of viable options have been demonstrated for recycling flyash, one of America's fastest-growing waste products. Application opportunities range from structural fills to pavement bases, concrete, stabilizing backfills, and a metal-castings alloy. But two stumbling blocks still face utilities and marketers of flyash. They are: (1) Convincing potential end users that flyash is a beneficial raw material and not an inferior waste product. (2) Persuading regulatory agencies to draft legislation, that promote, if not mandate, its use.
