Contents: Fly ash and bottom ash are by-products of coal-fired power plants. They are coal combustion wastes and can contain many chemical elements that may be potentially harmful to the environment. Although some of the ashes are used as construction materials, most of them are still disposed of in settling ponds or landfills. The chemical and physical characteristics of typical fly ash and bottom ash are summarized. In order to determine how well these typical values describe the ash from a specific plant, both types of ashes from a coal-fired power plant in Kentucky were characterized. These values were then compared to the values reported in the literature. The effect of ash disposal upon groundwater was also investigated for the specific plant
