•Vaporization of Cs in simulated granular ash was examined.•CaCl2 and CaO were used as additives.•Addition of CaCl2 and CaO together enhanced Cs vaporization.•Cl-aluminosilicates were formed when CaCl2 and CaO coexisted in ash. This study aims to clarify the vaporization propensity of Cs in simulate...
