Abstrakt: The utilization of blast furnace slag (BFS) and fly ash (FA) to replace ordinary portland cement (OPC) has become a hot topic in the preparation of low-cost cemented paste backfill (CPB). This study has prepared a composite activated slag-based binder (CASB) using BFS and FA as the basic raw materials and desulfurization gypsum (DG) and cement clinker (CC) as the activator. The optimum ratio of CASB was determined based on the orthogonal test and the efficacy coefficient method. The hydration products and hydration mechanism of CASB materials were further investigated using XRD, TG, and SEM tests; on this basis, the compressive strength of hardened CASB-CPB under different working conditions and the rheological properties of fresh slurry were investigated, and the cost analysis and environmental effects of CASB were carried out. The results show that the optimum ratio of CASB was 15:12:13:60 for FA: CC: DG: BFS; the hydration mechanism of CASB was the coupled alkali-sulfate activation of CC and DG, and the main hydration products were hydrated calcium silicate gels (C–S–H gels) and ettringite (AFt); increasing the mass concentration (C w) at a constant cement-aggregate ratio (C/A), which caused a significant improvement in the compressive strength at 7 and 28 d while reduced the flowability of the slurry; CASB considerably reduced the filling cost compared to OPC, and effectively immobilization the heavy metals in the tailings. This paper has developed a cement alternative binder of CASB, which has considerable significance for the comprehensive utilization of solid waste, reduction of filling costs, and improvement of economic and ecological benefits of the mine.
