Alternative Fly Ash Research Consortium

Fly ash particles

The Alternative Fly Ash Research Consortium (AFARC) was established to:

  1. Address the key gaps in protocol and testing related to alternatives for Class C and F fly ash;
  2. Help facilitate new alternatives to be approved for use by TxDOT in their projects.

AFARC strives to advance the industrial intelligence frontier forward through university-industry collaboration on alternative fly ash composition and materials research and education to realize the vision of resolving the fly ash shortage issue. The specific focus will be on making protocols and testing guidelines to screen new alternative mixtures for approval and direct adoption for use in TxDOT and other industrial projects.
