Multi-tank onsite flowable fill system and related methods
10053830 · 2018-08-21 · ·

A system to manufacture a native soil flowable fill onsite includes hydro excavation equipment having a suction hose. In addition, the system includes a plurality of onsite debris tanks, where each onsite debris tank is configured to be coupled separately to the suction hose and to store native soil vacuumed from an adjacent hole at an onsite excavation. The system also includes a mixing apparatus inside each of the onsite debris tanks configured to mix the native soil from the adjacent hole with additional components to form a native soil flowable fill for the respective adjacent hole.

SUPPLEMENTARY CEMENTITIOUS MATERIALS COMPRISING DREDGED SEDIMENTS

A supplementary cementitious material used in combination with an activator such as Portland cement to produce a hydraulic binder. The supplementary cementitious material is based on physico-chemically treated filter cake product extracted from dredged sediments and can partially replace Portland cement clinker in conventional concrete applications with positive effects on sustainability (reduction of CO2 emissions, upcycling of residues).

METHOD OF PRODUCING CONCRETE FROM WASTE MATERIAL AND WASTE-BASED CONCRETE MADE USING SAID METHOD
20180118618 · 2018-05-03 ·

The invention: a procedure to manufacture recycled waste concrete, and the recycled waste concrete itself, which is produced through a simple processing of various types of waste and is suitable for serving as a material to manufacture concrete products widely used in the construction industry, where such products include road bases, strip foundations, bases of houses, noise barriers, traffic barriers for highways/roads, lane separators, sandwich panels, to fill formwork and even, depending on the type of waste used, to build walls. The recycled waste concrete contains cement, water and shredded waste aggregates, such as shredded tyres and/or any shredded plastic waste, and/or any shredded scrap metal, and/or any shredded garden waste, and/or shredded mixed waste, and/or shredded fibre waste, and/or any shredded glass waste, and/or shredded and effectively neutralised municipal waste. As organic binding agent it contains homo-, co- and terpolymers, which can be dissolved and/or dispersed in water and do not contain or produce environmentally hazardous, volatile, organic hydrocarbons, and such polymers are made, for instance, by using vinyl chloride, vinyl esters of saturated, unsaturated and aromatic organic acids, vinyl butyral, ethylene, esters of acrylic acid, styrene, alkyl isocyanates, silanes and siloxanes, which may contain polyvinyl alcohols and/or cellulose ethers and/or other protective colloids. The invention is characterised by being produced by simply mixing the ingredients in the proportions given as listed below: 20-50 volume percent cement, 0.3-10 volume percent organic polymer binding agent, 8-30 volume percent water, and 50-100 volume percent shredded waste aggregate.
