Abstract
CO2 physical-chemical synergistic storage can be achieved by constructing functional backfill space in mine goaf. Exploring the mechanical properties and toughness characteristics of storage backfill is an important index to evaluate the safe operation of storage CO2 storage. In high concentration CO2 curing environment, the storage backfill will undergo severe carbonation reaction. Through uniaxial compression, compressive toughness and flexural toughness experiments, the strength characteristics, toughness index, deformation and failure mechanism of fiber-reinforced storage backfill after carbonation were studied for the first time, and the action mechanism of carbonation reinforcement and fiber toughening was revealed. The carbonation reaction can increase the strength performance of the storage backfill by 1.56–2.32 times by chemical enhancement, but the toughness index decreases from 4.14 to 1.48, which will pose a potential threat to the security and stability of the storage. In order to eliminate the safety hazard of CO2 storage backfill, it is recommended to add fiber into the storage backfill material. The fiber improves the strength of the storage backfill by a factor of 1.51–1.73 through physical strengthening and toughening, while increasing the toughness index from 4.14 to 7.09. This study demonstrates that it is effective to use fiber to improve the toughness characteristics of carbonized storage backfill and provides an important idea and reference for the selection of backfill materials for storage CO2 storage.
