20080295740 | Production of glass powder from waste glass, and products made using the same, especially concrete - A clean dry glass powder useful as a substitute for Portland cement in concrete, in paints, and for other known uses for glass powder produced conventionally can be produced from unsorted post-consumer waste glass, including a substantial fraction of non-glass items, by employing glass pulverizing equipment to reduce waste glass to small fragments, allowing removal of trash, employing a multistep washing process to clean the glass fragments, in the preferred embodiment using aggregate cleaning equipment, drying the fragments, preferably using fluidized bed techniques, and grinding the glass to a desired particle size, preferably using a ball mill, in combination with an air classification step to produce a glass powder of uniform particle size. | 12-04-2008 |
20090211495 | Concrete block and method of making same - A concrete block mixture includes Portland cement, a natural aggregate filler, water, and a quantity of particularly sized glass particles. The associated method of producing blocks from the mixture eliminates the need of curing the blocks in a heated humidity controlled environment in order for the blocks to attain the required water content for hydration of the cement. | 08-27-2009 |
20090272298 | Use of Pulverized Glass in a Composite Material - The use of pulverized glass having a particle size of 0 nm to 100 μm as an ingredient in a composite material, said composite material is obtained by mixing a base component and a hardener, is disclosed. The pulverized glass is useful in composite materials, such as either a cement-based material which is to be mixed with water as a hardener or in epoxies, acrylics, polyurethanes, butylenes or silicones. | 11-05-2009 |
20120227631 | Methods and Compositions Comprising Cement Kiln Dust Having an Altered Particle Size - Methods and compositions are disclosed that comprise cement kiln dust having a mean particle size that has been altered. An embodiment discloses a method of preparing cement kiln dust comprising: providing cement kiln dust having an original particle size; and altering the mean particle size of the cement kiln dust from the original size by grinding, separating, or a combination thereof. Another embodiment discloses a well treatment fluid comprising: cement kiln dust having a mean particle size that has been altered from its original size by grinding, separating, or a combination thereof; and water. | 09-13-2012 |
20120291674 | Methods of Plugging and Abandoning a Well Using Compositions Comprising Cement Kiln Dust and Pumicite - The present invention is directed to plug-and-abandon operations that use plugging compositions comprising cement kiln dust, pumicite, and/or lime. An embodiment includes a method of plugging a well bore for abandonment comprising: placing a plugging composition in the well bore, the plugging composition comprising: cement kiln dust in an amount of about 5% to about 100% by weight of cementitious components, pumicite in an amount of about 5% to about 100% by weight of cementitious components, 0% to about 24% of Portland cement by weight of cementitious components, and water; and allowing the plugging composition to set and form a plug. | 11-22-2012 |
20140076204 | Acid-Soluble Cement Compositions Comprising Cement Kiln Dust and/or a Natural Pozzolan and Methods of Use - The present invention relates to acid-soluble cement compositions that comprise cement kiln dust (“CKD”) and/or a natural pozzolan and associated methods of use. An embodiment includes a method of cementing comprising: placing an acid-soluble cement composition in a subterranean formation, wherein the acid-soluble cement composition comprises a hydraulic cement, a component selected from the group consisting of CKD, pumicite, and a combination thereof, and water; allowing the acid-soluble cement composition to set; and contacting the set acid-soluble cement composition with an acid to dissolve the set acid-soluble cement composition. | 03-20-2014 |
20140208984 | NON-SHEET FORM STRUCTURAL BUILDING ELEMENT CONTAINING GLASS CULLET & PROCESS FOR MAKING SAME - A process for the production of a non-sheet form structural building element incorporating glass cullet, preferably from consumer waste glass streams, which glass cullet has a particle size distribution of −½″+12 mesh in an amount from 1% to 50% by weight and imparts an appearance simulating natural quarried stone, or terrazzo, and the non-sheet form structural building element made from this process. The composition of the building element also includes Portland cement, and one or more of concrete sand, stone aggregate, blast furnace slag and one or more of silica fume, silica sand and silica flour. The method includes a two-step curing process which involves curing a preform formed by molding of the concrete mixture without the addition of heat or steam for a first curing period, followed by curing of the preform in an autoclave, at temperatures ranging from 250 to 366° F. and at pressures ranging from 100 to 150 p.s.i. for a second curing period. The building element thus formed is highly resistant to degradation caused by the alkali-silica reaction, and exhibits high compressive strengths as compared to known concrete products incorporating glass cullet. | 07-31-2014 |
20150376492 | Plugging Composition Using Swellable Glass Additives - Disclosed are methods and compositions for plugging in a subterranean formation. An example comprises providing a composition comprising a cementitious material, water, and a swellable glass additive, wherein the swellable glass additive comprises a plurality of interconnected organosilica nanoparticles; and introducing the composition into a subterranean formation. | 12-31-2015 |
