• Based on material, the market is divided into Class C and Class F. Class C held the dominant market share of
USD 4.4 Million in 2023. The growth of Class C and Class F fly ash in the fly ash market is driven by several
factors. Class C fly ash, derived from burning anthracite or bituminous coals, possesses both pozzolanic and
self-cementing properties, making it highly sought after for use in concrete and cementitious applications.
Its ability to improve concrete workability, durability, and reduce costs contributes to its increasing demand,
particularly in the construction industry. On the other hand, Class F fly ash, primarily derived from burning
sub-bituminous or lignite coals, contains fewer calcium and more silica, alumina, and iron content. Despite
requiring lime addition to enhance its pozzolanic properties, Class F fly ash is also widely utilized in concrete
applications, especially in regions where it is more readily available. The growth of both Class C and Class F
fly ash markets is further propelled by the global focus on sustainable development, as these materials offer
environmentally friendly alternatives to traditional cement production and contribute to reducing carbon
emissions in construction projects.

3.2 Growth drivers

3.2.1 Increased demand in construction due to urbanization

The surge in urbanization globally is propelling a significant uptick in construction activities, thereby serving as a key
growth driver for the fly ash market. As populations concentrate in urban areas, there's an escalating demand for
residential, commercial, and infrastructure development projects. This increased construction activity requires
substantial quantities of building materials, including cement and concrete, where fly ash finds extensive
application. Fly ash's popularity stems from its dual benefit of enhancing the durability and sustainability of
construction materials. As urban centers expand, there's a heightened emphasis on constructing buildings and
infrastructure that are not only robust but also environmentally friendly. Fly ash, as a supplementary cementitious
material, is known to improve the workability, strength, and long-term durability of concrete while reducing its
carbon footprint. Consequently, contractors and developers are increasingly incorporating fly ash into their
construction practices to meet sustainability goals and regulatory requirements. Moreover, the use of fly ash in
construction offers cost advantages, making it an attractive option for large-scale urban development projects. By
replacing a portion of cement with fly ash, builders can achieve cost savings without compromising on quality or
performance. This cost-effectiveness further fuels the adoption of fly ash in urban construction projects, driving
growth in the fly ash market amidst the global urbanization trend.

Chapter 8 Appendix

Market definitions
Fly ash is a fine, powdery material that is a byproduct of coal combustion in thermal power plants. It consists of tiny particles
that are carried up the flue gas stack during the burning of coal and are collected by electrostatic precipitators or baghouses.
Fly ash is composed primarily of silica, alumina, and iron oxide, along with small amounts of calcium, magnesium, and other
compounds. It is typically classified into two main types: Class F, which is derived from burning anthracite or bituminous coal,
and Class C, which is produced from burning lignite or sub-bituminous coal. Fly ash possesses pozzolanic properties, meaning
it can react with lime and water to form cementitious compounds. This characteristic makes fly ash a valuable additive in
various applications, particularly in concrete production, where it improves workability, strength, and durability while
reducing the environmental impact of construction activities by utilizing a waste material.

By Class:
• Class C Fly Ash: Class C fly ash is a type of fly ash characterized by its high calcium oxide (CaO) content,
typically ranging between 20% and 45%. It is produced from the combustion of lignite or sub-bituminous
coal, and it exhibits both pozzolanic and self-cementing properties. Class C fly ash is known for its ability to
improve the workability, durability, and strength of concrete when used as a supplementary cementitious
material. It reacts with calcium hydroxide in the presence of water to form additional cementitious
compounds, enhancing the performance of concrete mixtures. Class C fly ash is commonly utilized in
construction applications where high early strength development is not a primary requirement.
• Class F Fly Ash: Class F fly ash is a type of fly ash characterized by its low calcium oxide (CaO) content,
typically less than 10%. It is produced from the combustion of anthracite or bituminous coal and is primarily
composed of silica, alumina, and iron oxide. Class F fly ash exhibits pozzolanic properties and contributes to
the improved workability, strength, and durability of concrete when used as a supplementary cementitious
material. Unlike Class C fly ash, Class F fly ash typically requires the addition of lime to achieve sufficient
cementitious properties in concrete mixes. It is commonly used in construction applications where high
early strength development is desired.

By Application:
• Cement and Concrete: Fly ash is utilized in cement and concrete production as a supplementary
cementitious material. It enhances the workability, durability, and strength of concrete while reducing its
carbon footprint.

Fly Ash Market Report, 2032

• Bricks and Blocks: Fly ash is incorporated into the manufacturing of bricks and blocks to improve their
strength, density, and resistance to environmental factors, contributing to sustainable construction
practices.
• Mining: In the mining industry, fly ash is used in backfilling and stabilization of mine workings, reducing the
risk of subsidence and environmental impacts associated with traditional mining practices.
• Water Treatment: Fly ash is employed in water treatment processes for its adsorption properties, aiding in
the removal of heavy metals and other contaminants from wastewater, thus improving water quality.
• Others: Fly ash finds applications in various other sectors, including agriculture (as a soil amendment), road
construction (as a stabilizing agent), and waste management (in landfill liners and cover systems), among
others. Its versatility and beneficial properties make it a valuable resource in numerous industries.
