Method for backfilling and reconstructing carbon storage space in abandoned main roadway and storing CO.SUB.2
Disclosed is a method for backfilling and reconstructing a carbon storage space in an abandoned main roadway and storing CO.sub.2. A surrounding rock of the main roadway is surveyed through geophysical exploration technology, and an anchor bolts (anchor cables) are used to reinforce and support an area which has unstable confining pressure bearing. According to a width and a height of the roadway section of the main roadway, a support formwork is forged in advance, and after the support formwork is placed in the main roadway, backfilling slurry is injected to the periphery of the support formwork. Meanwhile, supercritical carbon dioxide is injected into the backfilling slurry and the roadway, respectively.
Composite plastering material
A composite plastering material and a method of making the same are provided. The composite plastering material includes a mixture of sand-silica and Abelmoschus esculentus powder. The composite plastering material has increased compressive strength depending upon the concentration of Abelmoschus esculentus powder used. The method of making the composite plastering material includes sieving the sand-silica to produce sand-silica of a uniform particle size, mixing powdered Abelmoschus esculentus powder with the sand-silica to produce a first mixture, and mixing water with the first mixture to produce the composite plastering material. Optionally, the method may also include milling the sand-silica prior to sieving and combining the sand-silica with the Abelmoschus esculentus powder. The composite plastering material may then be plaster cast, such as by pressing the composite plastering material in a hot press and drying the resulting composite material in an oven.
Carbon-Sequestering Concrete Composition with Enhanced CO2 Absorbtion and Method of Manufacturing Thereof
A carbon-sequestering concrete composition and method of production are disclosed. The composition comprises geopolymer binder components, aggregates, and alginate beads formed from brown algae powder through ionic gelation. The alginate beads significantly increase CO2 absorption surface area compared to algae powder, creating a matrix across the concrete surface that enhances long-term sequestration and improves durability. The beads interact synergistically with other concrete components, including geopolymers, fly ash, and ground granulated blast furnace slag, to enhance pozzolanic reactions and create additional sites for carbon dioxide capture. The alginate beads also facilitate the dissolution of minerals like olivine, further enhancing carbon capture. The composition demonstrates superior carbon sequestration capabilities, enabling sustained CO2 absorption throughout its service life. The method includes forming alginate beads, incorporating them into the concrete mixture, and allowing for initial hardening and drying processes that promote carbon dioxide absorption directly from the air.

Method for preparing silane coupling agent/silica/plant fiber composite
A method for preparing a silane coupling agent/silica/plant fiber composite includes the following steps: S1: pretreating plant fiber; S2: preparing hydrolysate of a silane coupling agent; S3: preparing a silane coupling agent/plant fiber composite; S4: preparing a silica nanoparticle dispersion; and S5: preparing a silane coupling agent/silica nanoparticle/plant fiber composite. Through the covalent interaction among a silanol group (SiOH) formed by hydrolysis of the silane coupling agent, SiOH of the silica, and a hydroxyl group (OH) on the surface of the plant fiber, the present invention enables silica nanoparticles to be grafted on the surface of the plant fiber. Using a hydrophobic film formed by the silane coupling agent, harmful ions are prevented from invading, and the volume stability of the fiber is improved. Using the pozzolanic activity of the silica nanoparticles, the alkalinity and calcium hydroxide content around the fiber are reduced.
