and produces water and electricity (plus a little ash). I have visited lots of similar sites, like power plants and paper mills,
whether volcanic ash would be a good large-volume substitute in countries without easy access to fly ash an industrial waste product from the burning of coal that is commonly used to produce modern green concrete.#
natural ash replaced half the foundation cement (production of which produces five percent of global CO2 EMISSIONS),
but sterile ash that can be used to fertilize crops. Referring to the Omniprocessor as a lean repository for human waste,
and hailed by some as the discovery of the century may have been caused by ashes from an exploding star.
Another possibility is that the stellar ashes could help bring the result in line with other cosmic observations.
and safeguard entire species. Researchers claim to have worked out how to accurately predict the eruption of'supervolcanoes'that blanket the earth in giant ash clouds triggering a'nuclear winter'.
They throw 100 times more superheated gas, ash and rock into the atmosphere than run-of-the-mill eruptions-enough to blanket continents and plunge the globe into decades-long volcanic winters.

it emitted huge amounts of sulfuric aerosols, ash and other gases. This caused'one of the most important climatic and socially repercussive events of the last millennium'
In Britain the summer of 1783 was known as the'sand summer'because of the ash fallout and an estimated 25

#Discarded cigarette ashes could go to good use--removing arsenic from water Arsenic a well-known poison can be taken out of drinking water using sophisticated treatment methods.
Recognizing that the porous structure of cigarette ash could be suited better to this purpose Li's team decided to test it.
In a simple inexpensive one-step method the researchers prepared cigarette ash with a coating of aluminum oxide.
Because cigarette ashes are discarded in countries around the world and can be collected easily in places where public smoking is allowed it could be part of a low-cost solution for a serious public health issue they say.
Dating ash deposits from windward volcanoes The new finding is based on measurements of the magnetic field alignment in layers of ancient lake sediments now exposed in the Sulmona basin of the Apennine Mountains east of Rome Italy.
The lake sediments are interbedded with ash layers erupted from the Roman volcanic province a large area of volcanoes upwind of the former lake that includes periodically erupting volcanoes near Sabatini Vesuvius and the Alban Hills.
