Abstract
Disclosed is a process for diminishing the adsorption capacity of coal ash comprising inter alia admixing a quantity of coal ash with a quantity of latex polymer, ultimately to form a cementitious mixture. The invention is useful inter alia for relieving an environmental burden of coal ash disposal and for imparting favorable properties to the cementitious mixture.
Claims4
A process for diminishing the adsorption capacity of a quantity of coal ash, the process comprising:
- (a) admixing the quantity of coal ash with a quantity of a latex polymer to form a first mixture;
- (b) slaking the first mixture;
- (c) admixing the first mixture with a cementitious substance to form a cementitious mixture;
- and
- (d) slaking the cementitious mixture;
- thereby persistently surrounding each of a plurality of particles of the quantity of coal ash with at least a portion of the quantity of the latex polymer, diminishing the adsorption capacity of the quantity of coal ash.
