Abstract | Laboratory and field experiments demonstrate that substantial dewatering occurs when the waste clay from oil sands operations is subjected to one cycle of freeze-thaw. The enhanced permeability resulting from the freezing process causes further dewatering and accompanying strength increases during post-thaw consolidation. The findings presented here were guided by a number of different materials handling scenarios which take advantage of the freeze-thaw process and are driven by the appropriate geotechnical, geochemical, and geothermal input parameters. Different conceptual design scenarios are examined to demonstrate how this process might be feasibly implemented at the commercial scale. Emphasis is placed on the large-scale requirements, sensitivity to input parameters, and the coupling of the continuing applied research with the conceptual materials handling models. The latter point is of generic interest to those involved in mine waste management.Key words: mine wastes, freeze-thaw, volume reduction, disposal, large strain consolidation. |

Abstract_FL | Les expériences en place et en laboratoire démontrent qu'on peut obtenir une perte en eau importante quand on soumet de l'argile, sous-produit du traitement des sables bitumineux, à un cycle de gel-dégel. L'augmentation de perméabilité résultant du processus de gel entraîne une perte en eau additionnelle et s'accompagne d'un gain de résistance pendant la consolidation qui suit le dégel. Les résultats présentés ici ont été guidés par un certain nombre de scénarios de manipulation de ces matériaux. Ces scénarios s'appuient sur le processus gel-dégel et sont contrôlés par les paramètres géotechniques, géochimiques et géothermiques appropriés. On a examiné différents moyens d'implanter ce processus à l'échelle commerciale. On a mis l'accent sur les exigences associées à une réalisation à grande échelle, sur la sensibilité vis-à-vis des paramètres d'entrée et sur le couplage entre la recherche appliquée et les modèles conceptuels de manipulation des matériaux. Ce dernier point est d'un intérêt indiscutable pour ceux qui sont impliqués dans la gestion des déchets miniers.Mots clés : déchets miniers, gel-dégel, réduction de volume, élimination, consolidation avec grandes déformations.[Traduit par la Rédaction] |
