Abstract
Twenty-six fly ash specimens from North Dakota, Wyoming and Montana lignite and sub-bituminous source coals have been studied in detail by X-ray diffraction. Chemically, these western fly ashes are characterized by higher CaO+MgO+SO 3 contents and lower Al 2O 3+SiO 2 contents than eastern bituminous fly ashes. These western fly ashes have greater proportions of crystalline material. The characteristic phases are quartz, lime, periclase, anhydrite, ferrite spinel, tricalcium aluminate, merwinite and melilite. Alkali sulfates, a sodalite structure phase and hematite also occur in some fly ashes.
