Constituted in 1987 the South African Coal Ash Association (SACAA) has played an important role in establishing a Coal Combustion Product (CCP) industry in South Africa by providing a forum for the exchange of scientific and technical information on ash utilisation. The aim of the SACAA is to promote and encourage the utilisation of CCPs where it is technically feasible, sustainable and economically viable. Membership is open to individuals, companies, academia, non-governmental organisations, and regulatory authorities within government.
