From Fly Ash to Green Gold: A Circular Economy Alchemy
Opening: The "Green Transformation" Proposition of Industrial Solid Waste
While thermal power plants generate hundreds of millions of tons of fly ash annually, piling it up as a "black burden", Henan Zhengzhou Mining Machinery Co., Ltd (Hereinafter referred to as ZK), is using technology as a brush to paint a green miracle on the canvas of industrial solid waste. With over 60 years of heritage, this high-tech enterprise has turned the once-polluting culprit into value-added "Green Gold" through three core processes—fly ash grinding, calcined ceramsite, and non-fired ceramsite—injecting strong momentum into the circular economy.
Process Decoding: The "Alchemy" of Unfired Ceramsite
In the production workshops of ZK, an "alchemy" of turning stone into gold is unfolding. Take the unfired ceramsite process, for example: from raw material formulation to finished product curing, every step demonstrates meticulous craftsmanship. The technical team first precisely blends auxiliary materials based on the characteristics of fly ash. A box feeder feeds the mixed raw materials into a twin-shaft mixer, where a unique blade design ensures uniformity. After humidification and premixing, a pelletizing disc uses centrifugal force to shape round ceramsite balls. Finally, scientific curing ensures lightweight and high-strength properties. This product, with a density only one-third that of traditional sand and gravel, offers comparable compressive strength and is widely used in various environmental protection projects.
Equipment Matrix: Hardcore Strength Supported by a Complete Supply Chain
Behind this hardcore technology lies a comprehensive equipment support chain. ZK's independently developed ball mills, rotary kilns, and other equipment form a complete production line from grinding to forming. It is estimated that every ton of ZK's unburned ceramsite produced consumes 0.8 tons of fly ash and reduces carbon emissions by 120 kilograms, truly realizing the ecological value of "treating waste with waste."
Cultural Core: The Spiritual Code Driving Development
Behind this achievement is the cultural gene of "virtue first, benefit last." The "timely delivery, timely payment" approach ensures timely project commissioning; the pursuit of "service first" ensures the team's 24-hour response to customer technical needs; and the principle of "survival through quality, development through technology" ensures the company's continued success in the face of the tide of the times. By 2025, ZK will have helped clients build green industries with an annual output value exceeding 100 million yuan, demonstrating with concrete actions the core value of "integrity."

Outlook: ZK's "Commitment" to the Circular Economy
From industrial waste to green building materials, from domestic breakthroughs to international exports, ZK is solving the challenges of fly ash disposal with innovative processes and a culture of commitment. As green building standards are fully implemented and the circular economy becomes a key issue of the times, this established machinery manufacturing company will continue to illuminate the path forward for the resource utilization of industrial solid waste with the power of technology.
