    The particles that remain after burning coal are called coal ash, principally consisting of fly ash and bottom ash. Other coal combustion by-products are boiler slag, flue gas desulfurization gypsum, and other kinds of flue gas desulfurization residues. [1] Depending on the type of coal that was burned, the chemical composition found in coal ...

    Plant-emitted radiation carried by coal-derived fly ash delivers 100 times more radiation to the surrounding environment than does the normal operation of a similarly productive nuclear plant. [64] This comparison does not consider the rest of the fuel cycle, i.e., coal and uranium mining and refining and waste disposal.
