Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical fields of solid waste material reuse and grouting material preparation, and specifically relates to a shield muck-based post-grouting material and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] In the engineering muck (including slurry) in coastal cities, the muck generated by underground pipeline construction accounts for a relatively large proportion. In subway construction, the shield method has become the preferred method for rail transit construction due to its construction safety, high efficiency, little impact on ground traffic and river navigation, small environmental hazards, and resistance to climate change. However, the shield method of construction will generate a large amount of shield muck. The large increment and stockpile of shield muck and its difficult disposal are the biggest problems faced in the disposal of construction waste in Guangzhou.
[0003] Although physical screening of shield muck can obtain value-added crushed stones and medium to coarse sand, and a relatively mature industrial chain has been formed. However, the soil and sludge components generated by earth pressure shields are complex and difficult to treat, mainly composed of siltstone, strong (medium) weathered rock, and clay minerals, etc., and clay is the main phase among them. The sludge contains harmful substances such as the high molecular polymers (such as foaming agents, flocculants, etc.) added during the slurry shield process, and construction waste recycling enterprises often need to additionally add high molecular polymers and other chemical reagents during the pretreatment of washing and screening shield muck to achieve the purpose of quickly cleaning the sand and gravel, which makes the sludge composition more complex. The traditional disposal methods mainly rely on open stacking and landfill, which not only consume a large amount of land but also cause serious environmental crises.
[0004] Using the muck generated by the shield to prepare post-grouting materials is an effective way of muck resource utilization. However, the presence of organic matter in earth pressure shield muck will affect the performance of the cementitious material and limit the amount of muck used. This is because traditional post-grouting materials still mainly use cement and fly ash as the main cementitious materials. The hydration products of cement mainly include Ca(OH)2 and C-S-H gels with a high Ca / Si ratio. In a water-rich environment, alkaline substances such as Ca(OH)2 are easily leached out, which in turn leads to the decomposition of C-S-H gels, thereby reducing the structural stability and water erosion resistance of the cement-based grouting material. In addition, how to avoid the adverse effects of these additives on the performance of the prepared post-grouting material and prevent the secondary leaching of additives after the formation of solidified soil, which causes pollution to the soil and water body, is also one of the key problems to be solved in the utilization of earth pressure shield muck. Summary of the Invention
[0005] Aiming at the problem that shield slag tailings have complex components and contain various types of difficult-to-degrade polymers, the present invention provides a shield slag foundation wall rear grouting material and a preparation method thereof. The grouting material focuses on solving the shield slag tailings on site and fully utilizes the slag generated by the shield for resource utilization. The prepared grouting material has high early strength and good fluidity, and can effectively absorb harmful substances in the shield slag, thereby avoiding pollution caused by the slag transportation process.
[0006] The purpose of the present invention is achieved by the following technical solutions: A shield slag foundation wall back grouting material, comprising the following components in parts by weight: 5.2-5.7 parts of earth pressure balance shield slag, 0.1-0.3 parts of adsorbent, 0.4-1 parts of alkali-activated material, 2.75-3.5 parts of water, 0-0.03 parts of additives; The adsorbent is a product of carbonization of concrete powder in a carbon dioxide atmosphere; the concrete powder is obtained by grinding hydrated cement, such as grinding cement into powder after natural curing, grinding waste concrete into powder, or grinding waste concrete with coarse aggregate and / or fine aggregate into powder.
[0007] In some preferred embodiments, the earth pressure balance shield slag includes sand and mud cake; the sand is a product with a particle size of <0.5 mm obtained by sending the earth pressure balance shield slag to a screening machine after primary screening, primary screening and secondary screening, and then screening again; wherein, the earth pressure balance shield slag is screened twice after passing through the secondary screen, and passes through 1.18 mm and 0.5 mm sieves respectively; the mud cake is a product obtained by obtaining sand and mud after the earth pressure balance shield slag is screened through gravel, and then the mud is pumped into a plate and frame filter press for filtration and dehydration.
[0008] In some preferred embodiments, the water content of the sand and the mud cake is 22%-52%; the organic matter content is 3-33 g / kg.
[0009] In some preferred embodiments, the mud cake has a SiO2 content of 40%-50%, an Al2O3 content of 13%-30%, and a CaO content of 0%-18%.
[0010] In some preferred embodiments, the base-activated material comprises the following components by weight: 80 parts of blast furnace slag, 10-20 parts of Portland cement, 10-15 parts of alkali activator; 0-5 parts of quicklime; 0-5 parts of slaked lime.
[0011] In some preferred embodiments, the blast furnace slag is S90 grade slag with a particle size of 0.4-100 µm.
[0012] In some preferred embodiments, the alkali activator comprises a mixture of sodium hydroxide solution, sodium silicate and sodium sulfate, with a modulus of 1 - 2 and a Na2O content of 3 - 6 wt%.
[0013] In some preferred embodiments, the additive comprises a solid water reducer, and the solid water reducer is a polycarboxylate water reducer or a naphthalene water reducer; the polycarboxylate water reducer is a commercially available product, with its chemical composition mainly being modified polycarboxylate, a density of 0.4 - 0.6 g / cm 3 , a pH of 9 - 12, a total chloride ion content of ≤0.1%, and an alkali content of ≤3%; the naphthalene water reducer is a commercially available product, with its main chemical composition being naphthalene sulfonate formaldehyde condensate and a pH of 7 - 9.
[0014] In some preferred embodiments, the carbonization conditions of the concrete powder are: humidity 70 - 95%, temperature 20 ± 10°C, carbon dioxide concentration 20 ± 5%, and carbonization time 3 - 7 days.
[0015] The second aspect of the present invention lies in providing a preparation method of the shield muck-based backfill grouting material, comprising the following steps: (1) Adding water to the untreated slag sand and performing grading sieving, passing through 1.18 mm and 0.5 mm sieves respectively to obtain sandy soil with a particle size <0.5 mm; (2) Pressing and filtering the slurry to obtain a mud cake; (3) Stirring and mixing the sandy soil, mud cake and water in proportion to obtain a slurry; (4) Adding the adsorbent, alkali activation material and additive in proportion, and stirring and mixing to obtain the grouting material, which can then be transported, poured and cured.
[0016] In some preferred embodiments, the density of the grouting material is 1.85 - 1.95 g / mL and the fluidity is 220 - 250 mm.
[0017] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: (1) The present invention combines a new type of low-carbon inorganic curing agent with shield muck to develop an alkali-activated grouting material with a high proportion of solid waste. It not only effectively utilizes shield construction waste, but also fully exerts the gelling potential of industrial by-products, realizing the efficient reuse of waste resources. The grouting material prepared thereby not only reduces the usage amount of traditional cement, reduces carbon emissions during the production process, but also effectively realizes the resource utilization of solid waste and environmental protection.
[0018] (2) The present invention makes use of the complementary advantages of different shield muck in terms of particle size distribution through the combination of two types of muck. By optimizing the particle gradation and the combination of active components, the fluidity and stability of the slurry are improved, water bleeding will not occur, and it can also promote the physical filling effect and chemical reaction activity inside the slurry, thereby forming a denser and higher-strength hardened structure. By adopting this compounding strategy, the dosage of shield muck in the grouting material can be significantly increased, effectively reducing the dependence on traditional cementitious materials, reducing the material cost and environmental burden, and promoting the large-scale disposal and high-value resource recycling of shield construction waste.
[0019] (3) After carbonization modification in a carbon dioxide atmosphere, the concrete micropowder forms a structure with an ultra-high specific surface area, hierarchical porous structure, and rich surface chemical properties, enabling it to have prominent dual functions of physical adsorption and chemical adsorption. It can effectively capture and fix organic pollutants in shield muck, promoting the selective adsorption of pollutants, and thus significantly reducing the organic matter content in the muck. In addition, through various action mechanisms such as electrostatic interaction, hydrogen bonding, van der Waals force, and complexation, the carbonized micropowder enhances its comprehensive removal performance for complex organic pollutants. This process not only improves the environmental safety of shield muck but also provides a good foundation for its further solidification, stabilization, and resource utilization.
