| dc.description.abstract | Co-firing coal with renewable/waste biomass for power generation can mitigate the atmospheric discharge of pollutants (e.g., SO2) and green-house gases. Wide-spread application of this technology is impeded, however, by current standards which prohibit fly ash derived from biomass as a partial substitute for portland cement in concrete. | en_US |
