Abstract:
A process for the production of a mineral foam includes separately preparing a slurry of cement and an aqueous foam, wherein the cement slurry includes water and Portland cement as well as calcium silicate hydrate crystallization seeds; contacting the slurry of cement with the aqueous foam to obtain a slurry of foamed cement; and casting the slurry of foamed cement and leave it to set.
Abstract:
A method for treating polluted soils, includes mixing the soil with a hydraulic binder, wherein the hydraulic binder includes: as the only high-alumina clinker, a high-alumina clinker including more than 80 wt % of mayenite C12A7 phase or a mayenite isotope, the high-alumina clinker making up at least 70 wt % of the weight of the hydraulic binder; and 1 wt % to 30 wt %, relative to the total weight of the binder, of lime.
Abstract:
In a method for treating waste, in particular domestic waste, comprising the providing of a closed building for receiving the waste, the roof of the building being designed as a semi-permeable membrane, the filling of the building with the waste, the waste being piled into a mound, the performing of a biological drying of the waste with the supply of air, the air exhaust taking place through the semi-permeable membrane, and the discharging of the dried waste from the building, the filling of the building and the performing of the biological drying, and optionally discharging, of the waste are carried out with an unchanged arrangement of the roof, and the filling of the building is carried out by dropping the waste from a continuous conveying device.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a hydraulic composition comprising: at least one hydraulic binder; at least one first water-reducing additive comprising at least one phosphonic amino-alkylene group; at least one second water-reducing additive comprising at least one polymer with a comb structure, the concentration by weight of dry extract of the second additive being from 25% to 100% of the concentration by weight of dry extract of the first additive. A concrete comprising such a hydraulic composition and a fluidizing mix for such a hydraulic composition are two other aspects of the present invention.
Abstract:
A composition includes one hydraulic binder including at least one clinker, and at least one branched polyalkyleneimine, having a molecular weight between 400 g/mol and 1,000,000 g/mol, at a weight ratio polyalkyleneimine(s)/binder between 0.05% and 5.0%.
Abstract:
In a process for the production of cement clinker, in which raw meal is preheated in a preheater (3) using the hot exhaust gases from a clinker kiln, and the preheated raw meal, which is optionally calcined in a calciner (4), is burned to clinker in the clinker kiln (2), wherein the preheater (3) comprises at least one string of a plurality of cyclone suspension-type heat exchangers (8, 9, 10), through which the kiln exhaust gas successively flows and in which the raw meal is preheated in stages, a partial stream of the kiln exhaust gas is diverted such that only a remaining residual stream of the kiln exhaust gas is utilized for preheating the raw meal.
Abstract:
A section of concrete intended to form a mast for a windmill, the section extending along a longitudinal direction and including a first flange and a second flange, wherein the section is composed of several portions distributed along the longitudinal direction, the portions including a first portion with a first extremity and a second extremity opposed to each other in the longitudinal direction, the first portion including the first flange at its first extremity, the second extremity of the first portion is connected by a connecting interface to another portion continuing the first portion, and a second portion with a first extremity and a second extremity opposed to each other in the longitudinal direction, the second portion including the second flange at its second extremity.
