A series of experiments including unconfined compression tests, three-axial tests, compaction tests, and split tensile tests were undertaken to investigate the influence of compaction parameters on the behaviour of bagasse ash-calcium carbide residue stabilized soil. A preliminary study on soil with the addition of 4%, 6%, 8%, 10%, and 12% calcium carbide residue established that the lime fixation point (LFP) was 4%. Then 9% bagasse ash was added to soil with 4% calcium carbide residue, and the cation exchanges and pozzolanic reactions were investigated. The addition of calcium carbide residue to bagasse ash stabilized soil caused short-term changes due to cation exchange reactions, including an increase in the friction angle and cohesion in the stabilized soil. In addition, due to the short-term reaction, the maximum stiffness in three-axial tests occurred in the samples moulded with less than their optimum moisture content (OMC), whereas the peak strength occurred in the samples moulded at their OMC. After a 28-day curing period, pozzolanic reactions improved significantly the three-axial peak strength and stiffness of the stabilized soil, and the maximum three-axial shear strength and stiffness occurred in the samples prepared below their OMC.

Calcium carbide residue (CCR) is an industrial by-product, stockpiles of which are rapidly accumulating worldwide. Highway embankment construction has been identified as an avenue to consume huge quantities of CCR as an economical, less energy intensive, and environmentally friendly chemical additive for soil stabilization. Previous studies have investigated the mechanical behavior of soils stabilized by CCR or blends of CCR with other additives; however, interpretation of the macroscale geomechanical behavior of CCR-stabilized soft soils from a systematically microstructural observation and analysis is relatively unknown. This paper presents a multi-scale laboratory investigation on the physical, mechanical, and microstructural properties of CCR-stabilized clayey soils with comparison to quicklime-stabilized soils. Several series of tests were conducted to examine the Atterberg limits, particle-size distribution, compaction characteristics, unconfined compressive strength, California Bearing Ratio, and resilient modulus of the CCR-stabilized clayey soils. The influences of binder content, curing time, and initial compaction state on the physical and mechanical properties of treated soils are interpreted with the aids of physicochemical and microstructural observations including soil pH, soil mineralogy obtained from X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric analysis, and pore-size distribution obtained from mercury intrusion porosimetry. Soil particle flocculation and agglomeration at the early stage and pozzolanic reactions during the entire curing time, which originate from the finer particle size, greater specific surface area, and higher pH value of CCR, are the controlling mechanisms for the superior mechanical performance of CCR-stabilized soils. The outcomes of this research will contribute to the usage of CCR as a sustainable and alternative stabilizer to quicklime in highway embankment applications.

Cement manufacturing and the treatment of sludge are considered both energy-intensive industries and major greenhouse gas (GHG) emitters. However, there are still few studies on comprehensive carbon footprint analysis for adding municipal sludge in the cement production. In this study, the lime-dried sludge blended with calcium oxide at the mass mixing ratio of 10% was utilized as raw material for the preparation of Portland cement. The chemical and physical properties of sludge were analyzed. A set of carbon footprint calculation methods of lime-drying treatment of sludge and reuse in cement kilns was then established to explore the feasibility of coprocessing lime-dried sludge in cement kilns. The results showed lime-dried sludge containing CaO, SiO2, Al2O3, and Fe2O3 was ideal for cement production as raw material. However, the water content of lime-dried sludge should be strictly limited. The lime-drying process presented the biggest carbon emission (962.1 kg CO2-eq/t sludge), accounting for 89.0% of total emissions. In the clinker-production phase, the lime-dried sludge as raw material substitute and energy source gained carbon credit of 578.8 and 214.2 kg CO2-eq/t sludge, respectively. The sludge used for producing cement clinker could reduce carbon emissions by 38.5% to 51.7%. The addition ratio of lime and stacking time in the sludge lime-drying process could greatly affect the carbon footprint of coprocessing lime-dried sludge in cement kiln.

Ethylene is an important chemical raw material and with the increasing consumption of petroleum resources, the production of ethylene through the calcium carbide acetylene route has important research significance. In this work, a series of bimetallic catalysts with different Cu/Ni molar ratios are prepared by co-impregnation method for the hydrogenation of calcium carbide acetylene to ethylene. The introduction of an appropriate amount of Cu effectively inhibits not only the formation of ethane and green oil, thus increasing the selectivity of ethylene, but also the formation of carbon deposits, which improves the stability of the catalyst. The ethylene selectivity of the Ni–Cu bimetallic catalyst increases from 45% to 63% compared with the Ni monometallic counterpart and the acetylene conversion still can reach 100% at the optimal conditions of 250 °C, 8000 mL·g−1·h−1 and V(H2)/V(C2H2) = 3. X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy confirmed that the metal particles were highly dispersed on the support, High-resolution transmission electron microscopy and H2-Temperature programmed reduction proved that there was an interaction between Ni and Cu, combined with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations results, Cu transferred electrons to Ni changed the Ni electron cloud density in NiCux catalysts, thus reducing the adsorption of acetylene and ethylene, which is favorable to ethylene selectivity.
