氯化钙-腐殖酸活化作用下土壤Cd的电动脱除性能

为了提高稻田土壤Cd的去除率,同时减小对土壤pH值的影响,采用氯化钙-腐殖酸复合活化液增强土壤Cd的可移动性,基于电动土工合成材料(EKG)电动排水脱除土壤Cd,重点考察了不同活化剂浓度和活化时间下,土壤有效态Cd含量以及土壤pH值的变化,研究了活化-电动排水后土壤Cd的电动脱除量、土壤全Cd含量、有效态Cd含量、土壤pH值的变化。研究结果表明:0.5%氯化钙-1%腐殖酸对土壤Cd的活化效果最佳,土壤有效态Cd含量可从0.30 mg/kg提高至0.44 mg/kg,而活化处理后的土壤pH值仅降低约0.4;排尽上覆水后,通过电动排水可进一步脱除土壤Cd,土壤Cd的电动脱除量为上覆水中Cd含量的3倍左右;活化-电动排水后,土壤全Cd含量从1.72 mg/kg降低至1.20 mg/kg左右,土壤有效态Cd含量降至0.27~0.31 mg/kg,各截面土壤pH值较为均一且变化不明显,介于5.45~6.30之间。研究所提出的方法可最大限度地脱除土壤Cd,提高稻田土壤Cd的去除率,同时减小对土壤pH值的影响,一定程度上保证了农作物的安全生产。

Electrokinetic geosynthetics in hydraulic applications

In use most geosynthetics play a passive role. New applications for geosynthetics have been identified if they can provide an active role, initiating biological, chemical or physical change to the matrix in which it is installed as well as providing the established functions. This can be achieved by combining the electrokinetic phenomena of electro-osmosis, electrophoresis and associated electrokinetic functions such as electrolysis with the traditional functions of geosynthetics of drainage, filtration, containment and reinforcement to form electokinetic geosynthetics (EKG). Electrokinetic geosynthetics can be made singly or from combinations of woven, non-woven, needle punched knitted, extruded or laminated materials and can be formed in any 2D or 3D shape.The majority of the uses of EKG are in hydraulic applications or applications with a significant hydraulic component. These can be grouped in separate engineering categories such as civil, mining, and water engineering. The concept of electrokinetic geosynthetics is described and details of applications and case studies are provided in the paper.     

加筋路堤下桩式复合地基的桩土应力比计算

近年来工程中修建了越来越多的桩承式加筋路堤。选取单桩影响范围的复合土体为研究对象,假定桩间土上部水平加筋材料受上覆土压力作用后变形为二次抛物面,考虑水平加筋材料对桩顶的作用力,通过建立整体平衡方程,推导出了加筋路堤下桩式复合地基的桩土应力比的解析表达式。通过算例进行验证,表明该计算方法是合理可靠的,最后分析了各参数对桩土应力比的影响,得到了一些变化规律。     

土工合成材料流变参数合理选择的研究

工程中应用土工合成材料时必需考虑其流变特性的影响,流变特性一般指蠕变、松弛、长期强度等方面的性质。当前在土工合成材料设计强度值的选择中,为考虑蠕变影响,往往对其极限强度乘一个蠕变折减系数后加以使用。这个系数如何取值对工程的安全性和经济性影响很大。由于对该系数研究不够,国际和国内都存在很大分歧,一般都取得十分保守。土工合成材料蠕变试验成果表明,蠕变的影响与作用的荷载水平关系很大,当荷载水平小于某一临界值时,材料的变形将渐趋稳定,不会导致蠕变破坏。而根据国内外大量工程实测资料表明,加筋土结构中筋材所受的力很小,仅及设计预测值的几分之一,甚至只有5%,变形也远低于预测值,筋材最大的受力和变形发生在施工结束时。同时,实测资料表明,土体中筋材存在松弛现象,它将减轻蠕变的影响。根据有关的机理分析、试验数据和实测资料,对筋材强度折减系数的合理取值提出了建议。     

Improved estimates of power consumption during dewatering of mine tailings using electrokinetic geosynthetics (EKGs)

Electrokinetic geosynthetics (EKGs) were developed about a decade ago, producing a material that did not experience the same corrosion problems as metal electrodes when used in electro-osmotic (EO) dewatering applications. The conductive polymeric material from which EKGs are made has the additional advantage of being able to be formed into a variety of shapes, including drainage tubes such as those used in this study. One of the primary concerns regarding EO dewatering applications is the rate of energy consumption. This paper reports experiments at three different scales, on different mine tailings materials, that illustrates the potentially misleading results obtained from small scale laboratory tests. Using large, outdoor tests, power consumption rates for treating a kaolinitic mineral sands tailings and a smectitic diamond tailings were found to be up to 30 times lower than the power consumption rates obtained from laboratory tests using small samples in a purpose built EO cell. The primary reason for the improved performance is thought to be the lower voltage gradient used in the field tests, plus the geometric advantages offered by a field layout where a greater volume of material is exposed to the EO effect than only the material directly between the electrodes, which is the case in the EO cell tests. Finally, in the field tests the EO treatment caused the early development of vertical cracks in the tailings, resulting in increased exposure of the tailings to the effects of solar drying. This effect cannot obviously be reproduced in the EO cell laboratory tests, and can be a major advantage for the in situ treatment of mine tailings lagoons, where in some materials the onset of cracking is significantly delayed by the development of an impermeable surface crust.     

土工合成材料加筋垫层承载力计算

土工合成材料在工程中应用日益广泛,但目前对加筋垫层的研究较少。通过理论分析和试验研究,提出了两种计算加筋垫层承载力的方法:一种为特征值法,一种为改进的太沙基公式法。在天然地基承载力计算的基础上考虑了筋材的加筋作用,同时定义了多层加筋时的筋材强度发挥系数并给出了其一般取值范围。计算结果和试验所测数据较吻合。结果表明这两种方法均可用于加筋垫层承载力的计算,从而为加筋垫层承载力的计算开辟了新的途径。     

Mechanistic-based comparisons of stabilised base and granular surface layers of low-volume roads

Granular surface and base layers of low-volume roads (LVRs) are frequently subjected to severe damage that adversely affects safety and requires regular repair and maintenance. Various stabilisation methods have been evaluated for mitigating damage and improving serviceability of LVR systems. However, few well-documented comparisons exist of the field mechanical performance, durability and construction costs of different stabilisation methods under the same set of geological, climate, and traffic conditions. Therefore, the present study was conducted to identify the most effective and economical among several stabilisation methods for repairing or reconstructing granular surface and base layers of LVRs. In this study, a range of promising technologies from a comprehensive literature review was selected and examined using field demonstration sections. A total of nine geomaterials, three chemical stabilisers, and three types of geosynthetics were used to construct various test sections over a 3.22 km stretch of granular-surfaced road. Extensive falling weight deflectometer (FWD) and dynamic cone penetrometer tests were performed to evaluate the multilayered elastic moduli and strengths of the various sections. This paper details the design and construction of each test section, compares the as-constructed mechanistic performance of all test sections, and assesses stiffness changes of several sections one year after construction. To provide a statistical basis for the comparisons, a pairwise multiple-comparison procedure applied for unequal sample sizes and variances and the paired t-test were used to analyse the FWD test results, demonstrating that the performance measures of the various sections were significantly different.
