The SEFA Group, LLC, a prominent player in the coal ash processing industry, is proud to announce a remarkable milestone achieved in the realm of coal ash management. Since the year 2015, SEFA has successfully processed and repurposed over five million tons of harvested coal ash for beneficial and encapsulated applications. This achievement is a testament to SEFA's commitment to sustainable environmental practices and its dedication to turning coal ash into a valuable resource.

Coal ash, a byproduct of coal combustion, has long posed environmental challenges when not handled properly. SEFA, however, has taken significant strides to address this issue. The process involves excavating coal ash from legacy ash ponds, subjecting it to beneficiation, and transforming it into high-quality, specification-grade fly ash. This refined fly ash is then utilized in recycling initiatives, particularly in concrete projects for highways and construction.

Bill Fedorka, the Vice President of CCP Services at SEFA, highlighted the organization's extensive experience and expertise in coal ash beneficiation. Since 2002, SEFA has continuously refined its techniques and strategies for maximizing recycling and minimizing its environmental impact. Thermal beneficiation, a key aspect of their approach, enhances the quality of harvested coal ash, ensuring that the resulting products meet the highest quality standards demanded by their concrete customers. The refined fly ash plays a pivotal role in enhancing the strength and durability of various construction projects, including highways, buildings, bridges, airport runways, driveways, and sidewalks.

SEFA takes pride in its status as a pioneer in the field of thermal beneficiation, boasting the longest track record in the United States for this innovative process. They were the first company to undertake commercial-scale processing of harvested ash, solidifying their reputation as industry leaders. Additionally, SEFA is adaptable in its approach. In cases where harvested ash doesn't necessitate thermal beneficiation to meet the specifications required for concrete applications, SEFA offers tailored solutions to facilitate the recycling of coal ash.

Jim Clayton, the Chief Operating Officer of SEFA, reiterated the company's commitment to customer success and environmental stewardship. By maximizing the beneficial use of coal ash in sustainable and environmentally friendly ways, SEFA not only contributes to the longevity and resilience of infrastructure but also plays a crucial role in minimizing the environmental impact of coal ash disposal. This remarkable milestone stands as a testament to the dedication and hard work of SEFA's CCP Services and Transportation teams.

SEFA's commitment to sustainability, customer satisfaction, and environmental stewardship is evident in this noteworthy accomplishment. Their pioneering efforts in the coal ash processing industry continue to set the standard for responsible and sustainable practices.
