Disclosed is settlement substrate for oyster technology, and, in particular, the present disclosure relates to a concrete settlement substrate for oyster and a preparation method thereof, and a construction method. The concrete settlement substrate for oyster has the characteristics of induction of rapid settlement and metamorphosis of sessile organisms thereto, promotion of long-term growth and good durability, and the oysters are settled on a surface of concrete. A reasonable spatial layout is utilized, such that each concrete pile (block) can effectively break waves and ensure smooth exchange between water bodies on two sides. After oysters settled to each concrete pile (block) breed a large amount, the water bodies can be purified, and the ecological environment in the surrounding sea area can be improved.

A composition including cement, filler, polymer and a compound having epoxide groups and also an amine, wherein the composition contains more than 10% by weight of cement and at room temperature is present as storage-stable free-flowing powder and/or granular material. When mixed with water, the composition makes polymer-modified mortars having good processability, excellent adhesion, strength, water impermeability, chemical resistance and quick coatability possible.

Provided herein are compositions, methods, and systems related to aggregates, such as e.g., lightweight aggregates, formed from the reactive vaterite cement compositions.

A variety of methods and compositions are disclosed, including, in one embodiment a method a cementing in a subterranean formation comprising: providing a set-delayed cement composition comprising water, pumice, hydrated lime, and a set retarder; foaming the set-delayed cement composition; activating the set-delayed cement composition; introducing the set-delayed cement composition into a subterranean formation; and allowing the set-delayed cement composition to set in the subterranean formation. Additional methods, foamed set-delayed cement composition, and systems for cementing are also provided.
