Summary

Abstract Coal-based soild wastes (CBSWs) are industrial byproducts that can be harmful to the environment. The exploitation and utilization of CBSWs offer societal advantages such as resource conservation, pollution reduction, and cost-effective production. However, environmentally sustainable management remains a worldwide challenge due to the substantial production volume and limited disposal capacity of CBSWs. The physicochemical properties and utilization of CBSWs are summarized, including fly ash, coal gangue and coal gasification slag. It also presents the current global applications status of CBSWs resources and examines market supply and demand. Subsequently, the paper provides an overview of studies on ways to utilise CBSWs, highlighting the primary avenues of CBSWs resource utili
