5.0 CONCLUSION
• Overall utilization of fly ash in the 1st half of the year 2011-12 has been about
55% in comparison to 56% during 2010-11.
• The maximum utilization of fly ash to the extent of 48.13% has been in Cement
sector. 13.02% was utilized in roads & embankments, 8.72% in reclamation of
low lying areas, 6.76% in mine filling, 6.51% in bricks etc.
• The utilization of fly ash in mine filling was 6.76% and in making fly ash based
building products like bricks, tiles etc was only 6.51%. These two areas have
large potential of ash utilization which needs to be explored for increasing overall
ash utilization in the country.
