摘要:
The present invention relates to a method of treating marine or river dredging sediments, especially harbour zone sediments, whose free water content is between 40% and 80% by weight, for the purpose of obtaining a solid material which is easy to handle, characterized in that it comprises the following successive steps: - mixing said sediments with a treatment composition comprising a sulphoaluminate binder and at least one other component selected from a sulphate source and a catalyst of the hydration reactions of the sulphoaluminate binder, - a step of setting of said mixture, leading to a compact mixture having a free water content of less than 20% by weight, - then fractionating said compact mixture. The sediment thus treated may be incorporated into concrete or mortar formulas, which then have leachable fractions of less than 1 % by weight.

The present invention relates to a method for preparing a structure in a body of water, comprising forming a plastic construction mixture comprising (i) sludge or tailing material, (ii) a binder and (iii) a binder initiator, applying the plastic construction mixture to an area, the area being situated underwater, and allowing the applied mixture to harden underwater.
摘要:
A process and apparatus for producing a low density foam concrete, in which a recycled, excavated material is used to form the concrete mix. The material may be crushed and graded and used in a ratio of 6:1 with the cement component. A preformed foam may be used to obtain a high void volume and a placticiser added to improve fluidity. The foam concrete is manufactured on-site on a continuous basis using a mobile concrete making vehicle (1) having an elongate tubular mixer (4) into which the components are introduced at selected points (20A,20B,20C) along its length, so as to control the final composition of the mix. The mixer (4) has internal agitating means (22) that cause backflow to enable the concrete to be dispensed directly at ground level.

This invention relates to remediation and decontamination of sediments and soils contaminated with organic and inorganic contaminants. Environmentally stable products are produced when certain additives such as calcium oxides are mixed with the contaminated materials. In the process, the mixture is heated to produce a molten reaction product with at least part of an excess amount of oxygen mixture or air continuously bubbled through the melt (16) in order to provide mixing and achieve high thermal destruction and removal efficiencies of the organic contaminants. The melt (16) is then quickly quenched in moist air, steam or water to avoid the transformation of the amorphous material into crystals. The inorganic contaminants such as chromium, nickel and zinc are incorporated and completely immobilized within the amorphous silicate network. The amorphous material can be pulverized to yield a powder which evinces cementitious properties by blending it with other materials to produce blended cements.

In the process described, sewage sludge or sludge from natural water sources is mixed with 30 to 70 wt. %, referred to the dry weight of the sludge, of a water-absorbent aggregate, the mixture so obtained is applied to the soil formation and then mechanically compressed.
摘要:
A noxious metal(s) containing waste material is treated with an acid solution of a metal of group Vlla or VIII of the Periodical System, preferably iron or manganese. Subsequently, the metal of group VIIa or VIII dissolved in the acid is precipitated as a metal hydroxide and simultaneously the noxious metal(s) dissolved from said waste by said acid solution are incorporated in said precipitating metal hydroxide. The waste material together with precipitated metal hydroxide is subjected to an immobilisation treatment. Manganese hydroxide is particularly suitable for removing cadmium. An acid solution of iron and preferably simultaneously manganese to be used for treating the waste is obtained by dissolving oxisludge caught during iron or steel manufacture. The method is particularly suitable for treating dredged harboursludge. The dredged sludge may be formed into granules after mixing with a preformed mixture of the amount of a binder and 50 to 90% of the total amount of fly ash and subsequently the granules are treated with the remaining amount of fly ash. Carbon black and/or a water repellent substance may be added to the remaining amount of fly ash.
摘要:
The method according to the invention for treating sludge, in particular polluted harbour sludge, is characterised by the fact that it comprises the following operations, consisting of: - mixing said sludge with concrete and/or stone gravel, - treating said sludge/gravel mixture by crushing in order to obtain crushed material, and - carrying out a screening operation on said crushed material, simultaneously to heat treatment, in order to obtain crushed material of at least two different particle sizes. The invention also concerns the facility for treating gravel, in particular gravel mixed with sludge, capable of implementing the abovementioned method, this facility comprising crushing means (2), screening means (4) associated with heating means (5), and means (3) for transferring between the two.
