Abstract: In Japan, due to the public resistance of the nuclear power plants, the general trend becomes to generate power by using the coal. This means that huge amount of fly ash will be accumulated in the power plants due to the lack of safe reclamation sites. Accordingly. This paper presents an experimental study aiming at the evaluation of the adsorption characteristics of fly ash when used as a filter medium in places where the groundwater is likely to be polluted. For this purpose some of the most harmful chemicals was allowed to pass through a fly ash packed column at different lengths with the aid of micro pump that can regulate the volume discharged in specific intervals of time. The harmful chemicals used in this research were Mercury, Sodium cyanide, Tetrachloroethylene and trichloroethylene. After analyzing the out come of these harmful chemicals results have shown that the fly ash is a good adsorbent and can decrease the concentration of the chemicals to some ac!
ceptable values.
