A kind of method with waste carbide slag improvement subgrade in swelling soil zone filler
Technical field
The present invention relates generally to dilative soil and administers technical field, belongs to geotechnical engineering, highway construction, hydraulic engineering technical field.
Background technology
Expansive soil has the characteristics of water-swellable, dehydration drying shrinkage, when directly using as roadbed filling if it is not carried out the modification processing, during construction and after the construction, subgrade in swelling soil zone easily produces expansion after banketing and meeting water, then shrink easily during arid, cause roadbed basic unit and road surface structare layer to produce diseases such as shrinkage cracking, expansion, shorten service life of road surface, do great damage to engineering construction.
Because the significant swell-shrink characteristics of expansive soil, usually cause huge infringement to engineering, existing roadbed design job specfication regulation: the unsuitable direct filling roadbed of expansive soil, when needing to use, should take the necessary technology measure, and behind testing and verification, use, the road can't be satisfied and often the side's of abandoning processing can only be done with the expansive soil that requires.Yet this type of area usually lacks high quality filler, changes to fill out time-consuming and waste a large amount of land resources, does not meet the needs that China " builds resource-conserving, friendly environment society ".The expansive soil problem has seriously restricted expressway construction and the social development of the widely distributed central and west regions of expansive soil, therefore the Study on Processing Methods of expansive soil has become one of key technical problem of above-mentioned regional expressway construction, more and more causes scientific research personnel's attention.
Still immature at the improvement expansive soil at present as express highway roadbed filler research, lack the special curing agent of economical and efficient and the Treatment Design method of closed specification.The method of handling at present expansive soil mainly is a chemical modification, as mixes quicklime, cement, flyash, sodium chloride, calcium chloride and phosphoric acid and wait to stablize expansive soil, and wherein to handle expansive soil be the most general and effective method with mixing quicklime.Quicklime improvement expansive soil mainly is to add lime as stabilizing agent in expansive soil.Thereby improve the performance of roadbed filling, stablize expansive soil and reduce its dilatancy, improve the intensity and the stability of roadbed roadbed, guarantee the roadbed quality with soil.
Lime mainly is gelling, ion-exchange and carbonization to the improving effect of expansive soil, but that the gelling reaction of lime and expansive soil carries out is slower, has the not high problem of early strength; In the expansive soil of high-moisture is handled, generally take secondary to mix the job practices of ash, this activities is relatively complicated, generally needs the 7d time at least, will certainly prolong the duration.In addition, easy airborne dust (especially mixing quicklime) when mixing the lime construction causes certain environment to pollute to surrounding enviroment.
Carbide slag is the waste residue that produces when producing important industrial chemicals acetylene with calcium carbide, main component Ca (OH)
2, also contain CaCO
3, SiO
2, metals such as sulfide, magnesium and iron inorganic matter and a small amount of organic matters such as oxide, hydroxide.The efficient oxidation calcium is generally more than 60%, satisfy the standard of III level slaked lime in the highway construction, the existing carbide slag that studies show that can be used as the road foundation material fully, and is qualified fully as roadbed material as flyash-carbide slag, has the advantages that the construction period is short, efficient is high.The carbide slag wide material sources, according to national development and reform committee statistics, state's endosymbiosis electrogenesis stone was 5,300,000 tons in 2003, produced 1.2 tons of carbide slags by consuming calcium carbide per ton, and the carbide slag that the whole nation produces is above 6,000,000 tons.The water content of carbide slag slurries is big, alkalescence is high, and flow is big, is the major polluting sources of sewage network; And the main component of dried carbide slag is a calcium oxide, is that high alkalinity material pH value can reach more than 12.Discharging and store electricity rock ballast often take a large amount of arable lands, and the serious calcification in the soil of long-term storage, second ploughing be difficulty very.If the miscarriage meeting causes local ecological environment and air quality and has a strong impact on.
Meanwhile, with respect to the quicklime raw material, carbide slag has better economic benefit and social benefit.The present price of carbide slag is 10 yuan/ton (containing transport cost), and the price of quicklime is 280-350 unit/ton.Both prices differ significantly, if can improve expansive soil with replacing carbide slag quicklime, can greatly reduce construction costs; In addition, quicklime can discharge in manufacturing process discharges carbon dioxide, increases the weight of the warm trend of global climate, is unfavorable for the enforcement of the existing reduction of discharging policy of China.It is reported, produce in 1 ton of quicklime process and will on average discharge 0.8 ton of carbon dioxide.And carbide slag belongs to industrial residue, utilizes it to do expansive soil modifier, can release of carbon dioxide.Therefore, utilize carbide slag improvement subgrade in swelling soil zone filler, have good economic benefit and social benefit.
