The reactivity of sulphidic cemented paste tailings (CPT) is significantly dependent on curing temperature, initial sulphate content, and their interaction. Increasing curing temperature and sulphate concentration lead to higher reactivity, with the addition of mineral admixtures playing a role in reducing reactivity compared to samples made only with Portland cement.
The reactivity of sulphidic cemented paste tailings (CPT) is an indicator which can be used to assess their environmental performance and durability. However, the reactivity is influenced by several factors either alone or in combination with other factors, such as temperature, curing time, and initial sulphate content. In this paper, the combined effect of the initial sulphate content and curing temperature on the reactivity of CPT is experimentally investigated with oxygen consumption (OC) tests. Microstructural analyses of the CPT samples are also performed to understand the impact of the microstructure of the CPTs on their reactivity. The results show that regardless of the binder type, the reactivity of the CPT system is significantly dependent on the curing temperature and initial sulphate content and their interaction. As curing temperature and sulphate concentration increase, the reactivity increases (except for the CPT samples with 5,000 ppm of sulphate). Moreover, the CPT sample with high contents of sulphate (25,000 ppm) and cured at 50 degrees C has the highest reactivity regardless of the type of binder. The addition of mineral admixtures as a partial substitute for Portland cement also has a significant role in reducing the reactivity as compared to samples made only with Portland cement.
