Abstract
The invention provides a cemented filling method by mineral carbonation of
tailings, which belongs to the technical field of industrial wastes utilization. Solid
wastes with high calcium and/or magnesium content and low hydration activity
were selected as cementitious materials. Firstly, the cementitious materials are
crushed, ground, and fully mixed with tailings, water and addictive to prepare the
filling slurry. Secondly, the filling slurry is transported to the mine out area by a
pipeline. After the goaf is filled, the filling area is sealed and blocked. Thirdly,
CO2 is injected into the closed filling area to curing the filling body. Finally, real
time monitoring on the status of solid, liquid, and gas at the surrounding rocks
and filling body is carried out during the process of carbonation curing, to make
sure the stability of surrounding rocks and the meeting the requirements of back
and fill mining method. The cementing materials used in this invention were solid
wastes that has high calcium and magnesium content, low hydration activity and
little utilization rate. It greatly reduces the cost of raw materials used in cemented
filling mining method. The invention is a cemented filling method by mineral
carbonation of tailings, which has the advantages in simple process, low cost and
environmentally clean.

A cemented filling method by mineral carbonation of tailings
Technical field The invention relates to the technical field of back and fill mining method by tailings cementation, in particular to a cemented filling method by mineral carbonation of tailings
Background technique Cemented filling mining method is one of the green mining measures. The cement used in the cement filling mining method is still mainly Portland cement, which cost accounts for 70 -80% of the entire filling cost. In recent years, solid waste materials (i.e. blast furnace slag and fly ash) have been used to replace Portland cement in large quantities. With the increase in the cost of these solid waste materials, the high cost problem of cemented filling mining method has not solved yet. The application rate of cemented filling mining method stay only 30% in underground mine for a long time. In recent years, researchers have achieved good results in utilizing various solid wastes to replace Portland cement. However, solid wastes with high calcium and magnesium content (i.e. steel slag, construction waste, wollastonite, etc.), has extremely low hydration rate, which is not suitable for cement replacement. The utilization rate of these solid wastes is very low. Take steel slag as an example, the comprehensive utilization rate is about 30% in developing countries (i.e. China).The disposal of a large amount of steel slag takes up lands, wastes resources and pollutes the environment. Enterprises have to pay high environmental taxes. The utilization rate of steel slag in developed countries (i.e. US and Japan) is nearly 100%. However, steel slag is mostly used as aggregate in road construction, which is a low value utilization of the steel slag. Therefore, it is an important task to high value application of the solid waste with high calcium and magnesium content and low hydration activities. The solid waste with high calcium and magnesium content and low hydration activity could consolidation after carbonation curing. Taking steel slag as an example. The main components of steel slag are dicalcium silicate, tricalcium silicate, RO phase (a solid solution composed of MgO, MnO and FeO), calcium aluminate ferrite, free calcium oxide, free magnesium oxide and elemental iron, etc.. The RO phase make the hydration rate of steel slag very low. The free oxides make steel slag products has a poor volume stability. However, the calcium and magnesium containing minerals in the steel slag can quickly react withCO 2 at room temperature, which lead to the carbonated steel slag products have a high early strength. Therefore, the use of the solid wastes with high calcium and magnesium contents (i.e. steel slag, construction wastes) as carbonation cementitious materials infillingbody, can effectively solve the problem of low value utilization of these materials, reduce the cost of cemented filling mining method and enhance the application rate of cemented filling mining method. The invention patent CN109485357A "A GRC Plate Based on Steel Slag Carbonation" discloses a GRC plate prepared by carbonation of steel slag. The characterization is that: the steel slag, quartz sand and glass fiber are uniformly mixed in a certain proportion. Then, the dry mixture is stirred with with water and prepared as a plate using in a stainless steel carbonized mold. The prepared plate is immediately placed into a carbonation box for curing. GRC plates are produced based on carbonation curing of steel slag. The patent uses pureCO 2 for curing, and the CO2 pressure in carbonation curing is 1 to 3MPa. The production conditions are demanding, and the infrastructure and maintenance costs are too high. The invention patent CN10957461OB "A method for efficiently preparing of a low-cost carbonated brick using steel slag" discloses a efficiently preparing method for a low-cost carbonated steel slag brick. The characteristic of the patent is: steel slag, desulfurized gypsum and fine aggregate are mixed to form a solid mixture; then water is added and stirred uniformly; after the moistened powder is pressing and molding, the brick is cured in a carbonation chamber to obtain the carbonated steel slag brick. The cost of the curing process in this patent is low. However, the density of the carbonated steel slag bricks is relatively high, which is not meet the requirements of lightweight in construction bricks. The invention patent CN109608151B "A method for preparing a high-strength carbonated building materials using steel slag powder" discloses a preparing method for a high-strength building materials by carbonation curing of the steel slag powder. The characteristic of the patent is: the steel slag is ground into power; 70%-100% steel slag, %-30% desulfurized gypsum are mixed to form a solid mixture; then water with a mass of 5%-25% of the dry mass is added and stirred evenly; after pressing and molding, the compact is cured in a carbonation chamber to form the high-strength carbonated steel slag building materials. The prepared high-strength carbonated building material consumes a large amount of steel slag. However, if the free calcium and/or magnesium oxides in the steel slag are 100% neutralized has not been reported. The carbonated steel slag building material may have the hidden dangers of volume instability in a long term. This invention patent a cemented filling method by mineral carbonation of tailings, which uses solid waste with high calcium and magnesium content as cementing materials, and tailings as aggregates. The patent not only maximizes the use of industrial solid waste, but also greatly reduces the cost cemented filling mining method. Flue gas after desulfurization and denitrification in iron and steel plants is directly used for carbonation curing, which made the maintenance cost very low. The density of the filling materials has no requirement. Moreover, the long-term volume expansion of the filling materials could effectively support the mine-out area, which enhance the stability of the surrounding rocks. The early strength and long-term strength of the carbonated filling material prepared by the patent could meet the requirements of the filling body. Especially, it has the advantage of high early strength. In addition, the filling body fixes a large amountof C0 2,which could help to mitigate the problem of global warming. The carbonation curing area (filling area) adopts closed and block treatment, and real-time monitoring system, which could ensure the safety and stability of the filling body and surrounding rocks during the carbonation curing processes. The method has the obvious advantages of simple, clean and low costs.
