Abstract
Clinker substitutes are used in the cement and concrete industry to reduce CO2 emissions from production; improve mechanical properties and reduce costs. One such substitute is the coal combustion residue Pulverised Fly Ash (PFA), used in Portland cement e.g. for the immobilisation of low-level nuclear waste (IAEA, 2013). To meet CO2 emission targets, Britain is phasing out coal-fired power stations. Therefore, the UK supply of PFA is diminishing andwill cease.
