Abstract: The growing trend of using biomass as a renewable energy source results also in a growth
of the produced wood biomass ash (WBA), including fly wood biomass ash (WBA-F) and
bottom wood biomass ash (WBA-B), as the waste in the energy production. Due to increase of
WBA ́ amounts, it is necessary to establish its sustainable management. The construction sector
is one of the possible options for its sustainable management. This research focuses on the fly
WBAs application as a new supplementary cementitious material (SCM) in the cement
composites.
From the literature review, empirical experimental approaches of WBA-Fs in cement
composites were mainly used, focusing on macroscopic performance. Even with satisfactory
results, these approaches provide fragmented understanding of new potential materials in the
construction industry without clear conclusions and recommendations for the practice. The
main goal of this research is to perform a thorough testing of different types of WBA-Fs with
assessing of their applicability in the cement composites.
