Abstrakt: Abstract Millions of tonnes of coal fly ash are produced annually and its disposal is a major concern. Fly ash is mainly used in civil construction and as landfill. However, these procedures do not utilize the complete amount of ash produced and thus, thermal power stations have to manage its storage. New ways to dispose fly ash are needed and research to use fly ash in agricultural settings is conducted worldwide. Recent reports from in India propagate the possible use of fly ash as insecticides. A series of laboratory experiments were undertaken to validate the insecticidal effect as well as to discover possible phytotoxicity problems.
