| Summary: | Coal is used to generate electricity. This study is to reduce the disposal problems of coal ash having nowadays and focuses on some properties of coal ash mixtures modified polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) which are fly ash (FA) and bottom ash (BA) from Jana Manjung coal power plant. A study has been conducted to explore the chemical and physical characteristics included pH value, particle size distribution and specific gravity. Besides that, the mineralogical and morphological characterizations are studied through Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and X-ray fluorescence (XRF). Strength properties of coal ash mixtures modified are carried out by conducting proctor compaction test and unconfined compression test. |
