Eca
Saves Agriculture Soil By Using Waste Fly Ash & Mining Clay.
ECA is round pellet structure produced by firing natural clay at temperature of 1200°C. The result is a hard, honeycombed structure of interconnecting voids within the aggregate. The particles formed are rounded in shape and generally range in size from 0-30mm; these are processed to the required grading, depending on the final use. ECA is an extremely light weight, strong and thermally insulating material.
History:
ECA (Expanded Clay Aggregate) was developed about 1917 in Kansas City, Missouri, USA, to the production in a rotary kiln of a expanded aggregate known as ( LECA) Haydite which was used in the construction of USS Selma, an ocean-going ship launched in 1918.
In Europe, LECA commenced in Denmark, Germany, Holland (Netherlands), UK and Middle East.
