heal.abstract	Coal Combustion Products (CCPs) are produced in million tons every year and a large quantity of them either due to the fact of non-conformity with the existing standards or due to their overproduction, are dumped causing serious problems to the environment. In this work, the main CCPs, as are Fly ashes and FGD Gypsum are investigated, for a potential use in cement and concrete. The study is focused to Class C (or High Calcium Fly Ashes) due to the fact that these ashes are not covered by any European specification and therefore the extension of their uses meets serious problems eventhough the technical, environmental and economical benefits from their application in the construction sector have been verified in laboratory as well in industrial scale. Special topics discussed in this paper are also: i) The CO2 emissions reduction gain from the incorporation of CCPs in cement and concrete and ii) the available managerial tools aiming to increase their application rate.	en
