Ecoshotcreate Mining

EcoShot is a factory blended material designed to be a primary activator for the EcoShotcrete mining system.

The EcoShotcrete mining system is used as secondary support on rock faces and primary support on embankments that resists up to from 200J to 1100J of energy and gains strength when placed. Ec0Shot has an inherent energy absorption capability and is used mainly for the secondary support of underground shafts and rock faces.

Further benefits are:

  • Ability to set and strengthen in low waterflow.
  • Good early strengths when combined with conventional shotcrete accelerators based on Aluminium
  • No shrinkage when used in its designed
  • Low rebound when applied with an air pressure exceeding 5 bar.
  • Zero rebound when used in conjunction with the Ecoshotcrete
  • Increased durability.
  • Improved sustainability.
  • Higher quality.

 

Ecoshot is packaged in 30kg polypropylene bags stitched with polyester seams.

Ecoshot can be stored for up to 3 months in correct conditions.

Activated ground granulated blastfurnace slag ,(AGGBS) is a chemical enriched cementitious material that is a low carbon alternative with a 90% reduction in carbon footprint compared to standard Portland cement.

AGGBS is a factory blend of ground granulated blast-furnaces lag with chemical add mixtures to promote flow and finishability.

Typical Uses :

AGGBS is used for 60 to 95% replacement of portland cement with significant benefits:

  • Long term strength development.
  • Excellent chloride and sulphate
  • Lower pH than portland cement.
  • Lower heat of
Special Features : 

AAGBS used inconstituted mix designs exhibit:

  • Exceptional resistance to chemical attack from sulphate in ground
  • Exceptional low carbon
  • Resistance to oil and grease
Limitations :

AGGBS is not suitable for 100% replacement of portland cement without further adaption with chemical additives.

Request ARC Innovations personnel for assistance if replacement of Portland cement requirementis75–100%.

Special Features : 

EcoShot has a zero to low rebound within when compared to conventional shotcrete materials.

Limitations :

EcoShot should be applied at an air pressure of 3 – 5 bar.

Ecofill is used as a concrete within the construction and mining 

The key benefits of Ecofill are:

  • It develops higher compressive and flexural strengths than ordinary
  • It makes denser and more durable
  • It has superior chemical resistance, g. to sulphates and chloride attack and thus is vital in applications like chemical plants and marine structures.
  • It lowers hydration temperatures, reducing inner stresses and cracking in massive concrete
  • It improves the workability/placeability of a mix, making it flow better and ensuring a greater impermeability and density.
  • Concrete and backfill produced with Ec0fill is more
  • Reduction of pump-line
  • Quicker mixing per
  • Reduced production
  • Removal of toxic
  • Removal of chemical burns within cementitious
  • Ec0fill is delivered inw bulk tankers and pumped directly into
  • Ec0fill in silos can be stored for up to 3 months in correct
