Abstract
In order to use the fly ash reformed by flotation for concrete, the system to concentrate fly ash slurry from 10wt% to 65wt% in around 30 minutes is demanded. In this paper, we collected experimental data about cake filtration of fly ash slurry, and it was confirmed that cake filtration of fly ash slurry could be explained by Ruth theory. In addition, equations to estimate the optimum when fly ash slurry was concentrated were led. And a case study to design the concentrator of 10m3 in 30 minutes was shown.
