A Turkmen scientist has come up with a mechanism for obtaining seropolymer concrete from industrial waste
Meretmuhammet Hudayberdiyev, Head of the Laboratory of Energy Production and Conservation, Candidate of Technical Sciences of Turkmenistan, assembled an installation that allows the production of seropolymer concrete from industrial waste of the fuel and energy complex.
The scientist himself, an employee of the Technology Center of the Academy of Sciences of Turkmenistan, told about this in an interview with the ORIENT correspondent.
The main advantage of the installation is the production of finished material using sulfur, which is contained in oil and gas extracted at great depths. For many years there has been a question in the country about the industrial use of this waste.
The scientist proposed his innovative method — filling sulfur gas and its mixtures into a special installation that has the ability to stir and heat the product contained in the container. In the future, the mixture is brought to high temperatures, pyrolysis products are added to it and actively mixed in the reactor.
Then quartz sand in small proportions and crushed gravel are added to the mixture. The finished material is obtained within just one day. The properties of the finished concrete withstood the test for compliance with state standards.
In addition, as the scientist noted, waste materials, especially sulfur, which has optimal characteristics, can be used when laying roads in the conditions of the Turkmen heat. In this way, it is possible to ensure the safety of the hard coating from extreme temperatures and rapid wear.
