Nearly 117 coal based thermal power station has working conditions in India. About 71% (169 x 103 MW) electricity is generated from four Indian regions i.e. Western, Northern, Eastern, and Southern. All these thermal power plant has produces by-product after burning coal as an energy inputs. The by-product obtained in the form of fine ash which has been known as fly ash and bottom ash. These by-products directly dump on the nearby area or thrown into low lying areas. The utility of these finer materials has proven a feasible substance in the concrete constituents. The paper presents possible advantages to incorporate it into concrete. Fly ash, bottom ash and pond ash has potential to act as a binding and filler agent in concrete.
