Preparation and properties of high blending phosphogypsum-desulfurization ash-waste soil based functional prefabricated autoclaved aerated concrete slabs.

There is a huge stock of industrial solid waste piles such as phosphogypsum (PG), desulfurization ash (DA), and waste soil (WS) in China, and their utilization rate is insufficient. These have potential risk for environmental safety due to pollutants contained in them. In this study, after proportioning design, raw material pretreatment, bubble regulation and multi-temperature section maintenance process, successfully prepared a high blending solid waste based functional prefabricated autoclaved aerated concrete slabs (FPAS) with excellent functional performance, and the optimal ratio of each raw material is PG: WS: DA: cement: lime = 8:50:20:10:12, and the dry mass ratio is up to 75%, the compressive strength of the slabs is up to 5.2 MPa, the standard dry density is 606 kg/m3, the dry shrinkage value is 0.36 mm/m, and the post-freezing strength is 4.0 MPa, which is in line with the basic requirements in the standard "Autoclaved aerated concrete slabs" (GB/T15762) , and at the same time, its fire-resistant integrity is qualified for 240 min, and the coefficient of thermal conductivity is 0.15w(m.k), airborne sound-weighted sound insulation is 46 dB, also can show different functional characteristics. In order to investigate the environmental safety of heavy metals (HMs) in the slabs, the simulation experiment of HMs leaching from outdoor stacking of slabs was carried out. The results show that the HMs in the slabs do not pose obvious risks to the natural environment and human body, but three of the characteristic HMs, Cr, Cd and Hg, have significant leaching patterns, which can be expressed by a second-order kinetic model. Finally, the life cycle assessment and cost analysis of the high blending PG-DA-WS based FPAS and the conventional aerated slabs were carried out. The main environmental damage category of the high blending PG-DA-WS based FPAS is land ecological risk, and it has obvious environmental and economic benefits compared with the conventional aerated slabs. • High blending phosphogypsumbased aerated concrete slabs were developed. • A ternary solid waste synergistic enhancement mechanism was studied. • A systematic study of heavy metals and life cycle assessment of FPAS were analyzed.
