VIDISHA FLY ASH BRICKS PRIVATE LIMITED

In their own words

Pulverized fuel ash commonly known as fly ash is a useful by-product from thermal power stations using pulverized coal as fuel and has considerable pozzolanic activity. This national resource has been gainfully utilized for manufacture of pulverized fuel ash-lime bricks as a supplement to common burnt clay buildings bricks leading to conservation of natural resources and improvement in environment quality. 180 billion tonnes of common burnt clay bricks are consumed annually approximately 340 billion tonnes of clay- about 5000 acres of top layer of soil dug out for bricks manufacture, soil erosion, emission from coal burning or fire woods which causes deforestation are the serious problems posed by brick industry. The above problems can be reduced some extent by using fly ash bricks in dwelling units. Demand for dwelling units will grow to 90 million by 2020, which would require a minimum investment of $890billion. With increasing attention to environmental factors in the real estate industry, there is ample scope for fly ash brick and block units. With an expected Return on Investment of 28% this project would not just be a green initiative in terms of environment but would also turn out to be the green colour of money in our investors account. Pulverized fuel ash-lime bricks are obtained from materials consisting of pulverized fuel ash in major quantity, lime and an accelerator acting as a catalyst. Pulverized fuel ash-lime bricks are generally manufactured by intergrading blending various raw materials are then moulded into bricks and subjected to curing cycles at different temperatures and pressures. On occasion as and when required, crushed bottom fuel ash or sand is also used in the composition of the raw material. Crushed bottom fuel ash or sand is also used in the composition as a coarser material to control water absorption in the final product. Pulverized fuel ash reacts with lime in presence of moisture from a calcium hydrate which is a binder material. Thus pulverized fuel ash – lime in presence of moisture form a calcium – silicate hydrate which is binder material. Thus pulverized fuel ash – lime brick is a chemically ended bricks. These bricks are suitable for use in masonry construction just like common burnt clay bricks. Production of pulverized fuel ash-lime bricks has already started in the country and it is expected that this standard would encourage production and use on mass scale. This stand lays down the essential requirements of pulverized fuel ash bricks so as to achieve uniformity in the manufacture of such bricks.
