CONCLUSION
From Table 5 and figure 1, a conclusion
could be made about the presence of
fine fraction below 0.038 mm (dust) in
weight of 60.33%.
Fine ash fractions can have a strong
degradation effect on the environment,
especially in the period of strong winds,
which can lead to the major environmental
problems, especially violations of public
health, bearing in mind that this raw material
categorized as the hazardous waste.
This especially should be kept in mind
when mechanized cleaning and transport
of ash and slag from the cassettes in Medoševac
to the landfill for permanent disposal
of ash in the vicinity of nearby villages.
In a view of its physical and chemical
characteristics, the negative effects of ash
on the environment are reflected through
the pollution of air, surface and ground
water, land, to the agricultural products,
which directly threatens human health, in
areas where those are. If it is possible to
work on reducing the emergence due to
minimize the occurrence of ash and slag.
Regarding to the use of ash and slag in
other industries, this type of materials can
have significant use in the field of civil
construction as a foundation for roads.
The use of ash and slag like secondary
materials could greatly reduce the amount
of waste that is disposed in a landfill.
