Project Title: Design and Development of Coal Fly Ash Compacting Machine for Oil Spill Adsorption

Project Description: The subject of the study and its development could provide a way to reduce industrial wastes in coal fired power plants, reduce the hazardous effects of improper disposal
of coal fly ash and solve oil spill environmental problem. The design and development of the compacting machine could be beneficial to many people because it produces
a low cost natural adsorbent of oil and replaces the manual and natural recovery used in treating and curing oil spill catastrophes.
