Why Use Fly Ash

The quality of fly ash is determined by the efficiency with which it is burned. Most modern power plants generate Class C fly ash, which is the fly ash most commonly put to beneficial use. Older power plants generate the less desirable Class F fly ash. However, Reco Cement’s additives will work with either fly ash. See more benefits of Reco Cement’s use of fly ash…
