Fly ash from co-combustion as defined in 3.2 is obtained from pulverised coal fired simultaneously with at least one co-combustion material as listed in Table 1. The minimum percentage, by dry mass, of coal (Kc) shall be not less than 60 %, or 50 % if the co-combustion material is only from green wood (see 3.13). The maximum proportion of ash derived from co-combustion materials (M) shall not be greater than 30 % by dry mass when calculated from Formula (1).
The proportion of ash derived from co-combustion shall be calculated with Formula (1): M = 100 (K1 × A1 + K2 × A2 …Kn × An) / (Kc × Ac + (K1 × A1 + K2 × A2 … Kn × An)) (1) where M
is the proportion of co-combustion ash in total fly ash, in % by mass; Ai
is the ash content of co-combustion material no. i, in % by mass; n
is the number of co-combustion materials being used;
Ac
is the ash content of coal, in % by mass;
Ki and Kc are respectively the proportions of co-combustion material(s) and coal being fired; and where (Kc + K1 + K2 + … Kn) = 1 and Kc ≥ 0,60, or 0,50 if the co-combustion material consists of green wood only. In addition, if virtually ash free liquid and gaseous fuels are used as co-combustion materials, their percentage by net calorific value shall be determined and shall not exceed 40 % of the total net calorific value. Higher percentages of virtually ash free liquid and gaseous fuel may be used during the start-up process of a power plant. SIST EN 450-1:2013

NOTE Other types of co-combustion materials not included in Table 1 might be subject to an ETA. 4.2 Establishment of suitability of fly ash from co-combustion The suitability of fly ash obtained from combustion of coal with co-combustion materials given in Table 1 shall be established and documented by the producer. An initial co-combustion in the furnace using the highest intended amount of co-combustion material shall be performed. A representative sample of fly ash taken from this co-combustion (see Clause 7) shall be used to establish the suitability. The suitability of fly ash obtained from co-combustion with one of the co-combustion materials specified in Table 1 is established if conformity to the requirements in 5.2, 5.3 and 5.4 has been proven. 5 Specifications 5.1 General The chemical and physical requirements in 5.2 and 5.3 are specified as characteristic values. Conformity to a characteristic value is assessed by means of a statistical quality control procedure as described in Clause 8. The test methods prescribed in this document are reference methods. Other test methods may be used provided they give results equivalent to those obtained with the reference method. In case of a dispute, only the reference method shall be used. 5.2 Chemical requirements 5.2.1 General The chemical composition shall be expressed as proportions by mass of dry fly ash (see Clause 7 for a method of obtaining a sample of dry fly ash). In performing the test methods for major elements described in EN 196-2:2005, Clause 13, the following modifications shall be observed:
a) When heating the sample-peroxide mixture (EN 196-2:2005, 13.2) a furnace temperature of 550 °C shall be used and maintained for 60 min. Timing to start is when the temperature has recovered to 540 °C; b) When dispersing the sintered mass from the furnace (EN 196-2:2005, 13.2), proceed with the test even though the melting may not be clear; c) To decompose the evaporation residue (EN 196-2:2005, 13.7), add 2,0 g potassium bisulphate instead of the sodium carbonate/sodium chloride mixture. SIST EN 450-1:2013

The sulphate (SO3) content, shall be determined in accordance with EN 196-2 and shall not be greater than 3,0 % by mass. 5.2.5 Free calcium oxide The content of free calcium oxide shall be determined by the method described in EN 451-1. If the content of free calcium oxide is greater than 1,5 % by mass, the fly ash shall be tested for conformity to the requirements for soundness in 5.3.3. 5.2.6 Reactive calcium oxide The content of reactive calcium oxide shall be calculated as stipulated in EN 197-1:2011, 3.1 and shall not exceed 10,0 % by mass. If the total content of calcium oxide determined in accordance with 5.2.1 does not exceed 10,0 % by mass, the requirement for reactive calcium oxide shall be deemed to be satisfied.
5.2.7 Reactive silicon dioxide In the initial type test for fly ash from co-combustion (4.2) the amount of reactive silicon shall be analysed in accordance with EN 197-1 and shall not be less than 25 % by mass. Fly ash obtained from combustion of pulverised coal only shall be deemed to satisfy this requirement. 5.2.8 Silicon dioxide (SiO2), aluminium oxide (Al2O3) and iron oxide (Fe2O3) The sum of the contents of silicon dioxide (SiO2), aluminium oxide (Al2O3) and iron oxide (Fe2O3) shall be determined in accordance with EN 196-2, modified as indicated in 5.2.1, and shall not be less than 70 % by mass. Fly ash obtained from combustion of pulverised coal only shall be deemed to satisfy this requirement. SIST EN 450-1:2013

The content of total phosphate (P2O5) shall be determined in accordance with ISO 29581-2 and shall not be greater than 5,0 % by mass. Fly ash obtained from combustion of pulverised coal only shall be deemed to satisfy this requirement. In the initial type test for fly ash from co-combustion (4.2), the content of soluble phosphate (P2O5) shall be determined in accordance with the method described in Annex C and shall not be greater than 100 mg/kg. 5.3 Physical requirements 5.3.1 Fineness The fineness of fly ash shall be expressed as the mass proportion in percent of the ash retained when sieved on a 0,045 mm mesh sieve. The fineness may be determined by wet sieving in accordance with EN 451-2 or by air jet sieving in accordance with EN 933-10 and shall fall within the limits of the categories specified below: Category N: the fineness shall not exceed 40 % by mass, and it shall not vary by more than ± 10 percentage points from the declared value. Category S: the fineness shall not exceed 12 % by mass. The ± 10 percentage points fineness variation limits are not applicable. In case of dispute, the wet sieving method according to EN 451-2 shall be used as the reference method. 5.3.2 Activity index Preparation of standard mortar bars and determination of the compressive strength shall be carried out in accordance with EN 196-1. The activity index at 28 days and at 90 days shall not be less than 75 % and 85 %, respectively. The test cement used, as defined in 3.3, is selected by the fly ash producer and is further characterised by its fineness and contents of tricalcium aluminate and alkalis as follows:  Fineness (Blaine): at least 300 m2/kg;  Tricalcium aluminate: 6 % by mass to 12 % by mass;  Alkalis (Na2Oeq): 0,5 % by mass to 1,2 % by mass. NOTE The result of the activity index tests gives no direct information on the strength contribution of fly ash in concrete, nor is the use of the fly ash limited to the mixing ratio used in these tests. SIST EN 450-1:2013

The initial setting time shall be determined on a 25 % fly ash plus 75 % test cement paste (both by mass) in accordance with EN 196-3 and shall not be more than twice as long as the initial setting time of a 100 % (by mass) test cement paste. The requirements regarding initial setting time specified in EN 197-1 shall be met by the test cement when tested alone. Fly ash obtained from combustion of pulverised coal only shall be deemed to satisfy this requirement.
5.3.6 Water requirement The water requirement of fly ash of fineness category S shall be determined by the method described in Annex B and shall not be greater than 95 % of that for the test cement alone.
For fly ash of fineness category N this requirement does not apply. 5.4 Other requirements 5.4.1 Durability requirements The composition and the performance of the fly ash shall be such that durable concrete (see EN 206-1) may be produced when using the fly ash. Fly ash conforming to the definition in 3.2 and fulfilling the chemical requirements in 5.2 and the physical requirements in 5.3 shall be deemed to satisfy the durability requirements.
In certain applications, particularly for concrete in severe environmental conditions, the choice of fly ash category may have an influence on the durability of concrete, e.g. freeze-thaw resistance and resistance to alkali aggregate reactions. In such cases, the choice of fly ash category shall follow the appropriate standards and/or regulations valid in the place of use. 5.4.2 Release of dangerous substances and emission of radioactivity Fly ash shall not contain substances which, if released from concrete, are dangerous for health, hygiene and the environment (see Annex A). Should there be any additional requirements regarding environmental compatibility from national laws, regulations and administrative provisions in the place of use of the fly ash concerning
a) the fly ash, b) the leachate of concrete produced with fly ash, or c) the co-combustion material, these are to be considered and conformity to the relevant regulations shall, where required, be evaluated before production. SIST EN 450-1:2013
