| description | ► We studied the use of copper tailing as an additive in mortar. ► Why dry tailings reduced mortar consistency, pre-wetted tailings improved it. ► Copper tailings enhanced the mechanical strength of samples. ► Rates of water absorption were higher in tailings blended samples. ► Tailings blended samples showed superior resistance to chloride and acid attack.
Increasing demands for copper and copper allied products have made the processing of low grade ores with high volume waste output unavoidable. Presently, billions of tons of copper tailings can be found in major copper producing countries. The impact of copper tailings at 0%, 5% and 10% addition level by mass of cement on the fresh and hardened properties of mortars were determined. Results showed that dry copper tailings affect mixture consistency negatively. However, the use of pre-wetted tailings reduced this drawback. Copper tailings blended mortars showed higher strength and abrasion resistance. Similarly, rate of water absorption, acid and chloride resistance higher than those of the control mixture were observed. The use of pre-wetted tailings at 5% addition level seems to be the best reuse approach. |
