Abstract:
Determining the pumping characteristics of a full scale power station ash disposal system is fraught with
difficulties. This paper examines the pumping characterises of high concentration slurry comprising of a
mixture of a power station ash and process water as determined using a rotary viscometer and small scale
pumping test rig.
