✦ Synopsis
Many ¯ue gas desulfurization (FGD) materials have low unit weight and good shear strength characteristics and thus hold promise for ¯owable ®ll applications. This paper focuses on the potential of using spray dryer FGD ash in ¯owable ®ll as a replacement for conventional ¯y ash. Several design mixes were considered. The design mixes consisted of varying amounts of FGD, cement, lime, admixture, and water. The mixes were tested in the laboratory for ¯owability, unit weight, moisture content, uncon®ned compressive strength (UCS), erodibility, set time, penetration, and long-term strength characteristics. Tests were conducted for up to 90 days of curing. The FGD ¯owable ®ll without any additives was observed to be comparable to regular (normal set) ¯owable ®ll in terms of placeability, UCS, and `diggability'. FGD ¯owable ®ll with additives and admixtures compared favorably with the characteristics of conventional quick-set ¯owable ®lls.
