The recycled concrete fines carbonate readily, which enables a direct usage of exhaust gases from the cement plant. Hence, the process of fines carbonation can be used as CO 2 capture and ...

White Portland cement with a chemical composition as shown in Table 1 was used to prepare the specimens. A paste (10 L) was prepared by adding water at a water-to-cement ratio of 0.55, mixed in a 20 L Hobart mixer for 3 min, and remixed for a further 3 min after the paste was scraped from inside the mixer.To minimize segregation, the paste …

5. Fibre-cement composite properties and performance5.1. Fresh properties5.1.1. Consistency. Mansur and Aziz [17] observed decrease in the workability of cement paste and mortar as the length and content of jute fibre increased. Compared to the reference mixture without fibre, Savastano et al. [18] observed reduced workability of …

Cement paste was prepared at a w/c ratio of 0.29 containing the superplasticizer dosages (SCS 0.35% bwoc, PCs 0.2% bwoc). Figure 7.9 depicts the hydration heat–time curves, showing the effect of SCS and PCs on the cement hydration process. The results indicated that SCS can obviously delay the occurrence of hydration heat and make the rate of the …

The materials used in this study are Portland cement, mine process water, and mine tailings, which were collected from the paste plant of Williams mine from east of Marathon, Ontario, Canada. The tailings mainly contain silt with 14% of sand. The grain size distribution of the tailings is shown in Fig. 1, and Table 1 shows tailing properties ...

Generally, the proportion of components in cement raw materials is 67-75% limestone, 10-15% clay, 0.5-1.5% iron ore and 8.5-11% coal. The laboratory of a cement plant. With the help of vertical roller mills or other types of crushers, the raw materials are blended and further ground into smaller pieces of raw meal in the cement plant.

After years of development, paste backfill technology has become an important part of China's green safety mine construction and coal green mining technology system in the new era. In this paper, the research status of paste backfill technology in China's coal mines is expounded from the aspects of paste backfill materials, strata …

Tailings from the processing plant are either placed in the surface tailing storage facilities or in underground voids as cemented paste fill. The process flow sheet enabled non-sulphide tailings to be thickened at the concentrator plant before being pumped approximately 2.5 kilometres to the paste plant, where they are filtered by a vacuum ...

Slump control is an important process parameter as it is linked to the paste backfill water-to-NPC ratio and hence the UCS. With the AuRico paste backfill, the relationship between solids content and slump is approximately 1.5 wt% solids from 7″ (178 mm) to 10″ (254 mm) slump; that is, at 7″ slump (178 mm), the solids content is 81 wt ...

In its simplest form, concrete is a mixture of paste and aggregates. The paste, composed of portland cement and water, coats the surface of the fine and coarse aggregates. Through a chemical reaction called hydration, the paste hardens and gains strength to form the rock-like mass known as concrete. Within this process lies the key to a ...
