Construction Industry
Power and heat are the main outputs of advanced coal-fired power plants. But the combustion of hard coal gives rise also to by-products that are universally used as construction materials in buildings, and on bridges, roads, and sidewalks.
Valuable building materials
Evonik successfully markets high-quality building materials like fly ash, boiler slag, bottom ash, and gypsum in Germany and neighboring countries. Our customers include companies in the construction and building materials industries, who use these “power plant” construction materials, for example, as additives for concrete production, in earthmoving and road building, and for the production of gypsum products. The uses are many and varied.
