Description
Samples of ash obtained from a number of Indian thermal plants, from various points of collection have been chemically analysed and their stoichiometric mineral compositions have been calculated. Mineralogical constituents have also been determined by X-ray analysis as well as observed under optical microscope. The results have been compared. Formation of various mineral phases have been discussed and their environmental implication in solid waste disposal has been pointed out. (author). 22 refs
