The rapid growth of aluminum and graphite industries has generated substantial stockpiles red mud tailings, which pose environmental risks due to their high heavy metal content potential for soil water contamination. This study investigated the leaching behavior metals from these materials post-stabilization using cement a sulfonated oil-based ion curing agent, thereby evaluating suitability safe reuse. Semi-dynamic experiments were employed measure release, supplemented by kinetic modeling discern key mechanisms. findings indicated that concentrations in leachates consistently below regulatory standards, with dynamics influenced dual mechanisms: diffusion ions surface chemical reactions. A coefficient-based analysis further suggested low leachability indices all metals, confirming effective immobilization. These results suggest agent-stabilized mud–graphite tailing composites reduce possess characteristics favorable resource recovery, thus supporting sustainable use industrial applications.

Fiber-reinforced foam tail fill (FRFTF) has been widely investigated in the field of foamed backfill because its high strength and toughness. However, fiber enhancement damage mechanism FRFTF still need to be further explored. The pore crack growth particle structure distribution features three kinds basalt (B), polypropylene (PP), glass (G) fibers on were porosity, fracture, sphericity, fractal dimension quantitatively probed by X-ray micro-computed tomography combined with uniaxial compression (UCS) SEM, while spatial porosity fracture was analyzed 3D reconstruction technology. Laboratory findings demonstrate that increases from 1.46% 4.74% increase content 0.3% 0.9%. This is related weak adhesion between fiber. Adding blowing agents could well enhance morphology FRFTF, reduce number principal cracks trapped within specimens, maintain structure’s integrity. relationship FRFTF’s UCS value porosity/fracture closely nature quantity fibers, overall performance best among others. As quality shifts 0.9%, specimen’s adversely correlated porosity. In current study, internal connection FRFTFs are studied microscopically. combination macro-mechanical microscopic provides a new research idea for materials during implementation fully mechanized mining technology hard rock mines.
