  • boreholes are put into the ground and commonly range from 100 to 300 feet in depth (or more), are generally 4 to 6 inches in diameter, and include a tubular "loop" which can be made of a copper or PVC material. Generally, one loop is installed for each "ton" of heating and cooling capacity for the building or facility for which the geothermal direct exchange will service. A typical installation is between 4 to 6 loops for an average sized United States household.
  • a grout i.e., grout material.
  • Approximately 95% of these bore-holes worldwide utilize a Bentonite material mixture with silica sand.
  • the known Bentonite mixed with sand-based mixtures are difficult to maintain flowability while placing, and very difficult to pump through drilling, such as with a contractor's typical on-board mud pump.
  • many known grout materials is subject to "bridging" in the borehole (where the material bridges across the hole and there is an empty gap below and/or above the bridged material in the borehole), so laborers are accustomed to adding extra, and too much, water in an effort to make the known grout mixture more flowable.
  • few laborers understand the damage that they are creating to the performance of the installed system with every ounce of extra added water - and few homeowners are aware of the resulting degraded geothermal system performance.
  • the present disclosure provides a thermally enhanced grout composed primarily of recycled materials. More specifically, in one exemplary embodiment, the present disclosure provides a thermally enhanced geothermal grout made up of a class F fly ash material in a range of approximately 50 to 80 % by weight of the grout; and cement kiln dust in a range of approximately 20 to 50% by weight of the grout.
  • the present disclosure also provides a method of preparing a thermally enhanced geothermal grout from recycled materials, comprising the steps of: preparing a single component dry grout mixture comprising approximately 50 to 80% class F fly ash and approximately 20 to 50% cement kiln dust; adding a dry, mid-range water reducer at an addition rate of approximately 0 to 8 fluid ounce equivalent per hundred-weight of the dry grout mixture; and adding dry sodium hydroxide at an addition rate of between approximately 0 to 12 dry ounces per hundred weight of the dry grout mixture. Approximately seventy pounds (701bs) of the above dry grout mixture materials are then mixed with approximately five gallons of water to prepare a grout material that can be directly deposited in a borehole for a geothermal application
  • FIG. 1 is a microscopic photograph of the prior art.
  • FIG. 2 is a microscopic photograph of Geo SuperGroutTM.
  • the present disclosure relates to a grout product that was conceived to fill the void in the marketplace for a higher performing grout product that would eliminate most of the problems associated with currently-available grout products.
  • the term "single component grout” is intended to mean a single bag of material that can be mixed with only water to make a finished grout material.
  • the term "Geo SuperGroutTM” as used herein means a grout material prepared in accordance with the present disclosure.
  • the grout material of the present disclosure fills a long-standing market need for a superior functioning borehole grout that has a higher degree of thermal conductivity, but still resists shrinkage and cracking that is prevalent in nearly all currently-available grout products.
  • the a single component grout mixture includes between 50 and 80% by weight of class "F" fly ash and between 20 and 50% by weight of Cement Kiln Dust (CKD). These raw materials are preferably pre-blended and packed into one seventy pound bag. The packaged 70 pound bags are clearly marked to add five (5) gallons of water per 70 pound bag to prepare a predetermined amount of grout material for being added to a borehole. When five gallons of water are added to each seventy pound bag, the yield of finished grout is then approximately seven gallons of liquid grout material.
  • CKD Cement Kiln Dust
  • two other dry chemical components are added to the seventy pound bag of combined fly ash and CKD to aid in the performance of the grout material.
  • the first added material is added to enhance the flowability of the mixed grout material, and is commonly known as a mid-range water reducer.
  • the preferred mid-range water reducer materials are either naphthalene or a lignosulphonate, commonly known as a "lignin”.
  • the addition rate of the dry form mid-range water reducer depends upon the physical characteristics of the fly ash component, as the particles of fly ash are typically round, hollow spheres.
  • the addition rate of the mid-range water reducer is preferably between 0 and 8 fluid ounce equivalent per CWT (hundred- weight) of dry grout mixture.
  • the second dry chemical addition to the blended bagged product is used to help artificially "hydrate” the fly ash particles. It is in the form of a caustic known as sodium hydroxide. Because Class “F” fly ash has calcium oxide (CaO) under the hard, non-reactive layer of silica (Si0 2 ), the sodium hydroxide is used to perforate the shell of the fly ash particle, which opens up the calcium oxide (CaO) hydration, thus hardening the grout when in place. The addition rate of the dry "caustic” is between 0 and 12 dry ounces per CWT (hundred- weight).
  • the grout material of the exemplary embodiment involves a balance of component chemistries.
  • CKD cement kiln dust
  • the available chemistries of those raw materials sometimes require very little sodium hydroxide, and based on the fineness and particle shape of the fly ash, it may require very little lignin (water reducer).
  • the present disclosure includes the flexibility to determine what amounts of added mid range water reducer is needed based on the manufacturing locations of the fly ash and CKD, so when blended the performance of the resultant grout material is consistent. Accordingly, in one exemplary embodiment, while it will be extremely rare that the first and second chemical additions will ever be at zero on these components, it is statistically possible.
  • the grout composition of the exemplary embodiment hydrates and hardens within 24 to 48 hours. This is very significant in counteracting the shrinkage occurring in the Vadose Zone, in reducing internal shrinkage of the grout material itself, and improves the stiffening of the material which helps secure the particles in place in the hardening grout material once it begins to hydrate in the borehole.
  • Calcium silicate hydrate (CSH) is microscopic siliceous glass crystals that grow and surround all particles in the paste matrix. The CSH crystals act as both strength and stiffness against shrinkage pressures.
  • the hydrated grout material is composed of fly ash particles which are silica, the hydration product which is silica, the cement kiln dust (CKD) which is silica, and because the particle sizes are so small and numerous, the thermal conductivity is enhanced because all surfaces of non-similar shapes are touching.
  • Bentonite/Silica Sand mixtures are flooded with water to make the jagged rough particles flow around each other.
  • the water in such Bentonite/Silica Sand mixtures is absorbed into the surrounding soil, and is most damaging in the Vadose Zone.
  • the Vadose Zone is typically dryer than most ground soils and therefore absorbs water relatively quickly compared to other zones. The result is there will be more severe shrinkage and voids around the loops and the annular space in the borehole in the Vadose Zone.
  • a typical Bentonite/Silica Sand mixture is about 1:4 Bentonite to sand ratio.
  • any geothermal ground system depends upon the transfer of heat from the loop to the surrounding soils and the regeneration of needed loop temperatures as the coolant or water is returned to the pump system for further compressing.
  • the typical Bentonite/Silica Sand mixture stops being agitated by a mixer or pump such as those used at a work site location where the grout is to be put in the borehole, they quickly settle and separate.
  • the typical Bentonite/Silica Sand mixture is put in the borehole and is not agitated/mixed, the water rises to the top of the borehole and the heavier Bentonite and silica sand settle at varying levels in the borehole.

  • the black specks in FIG. 2 are carbon from the fly ash. The particles are extremely small and close in around each other giving a dense impervious structure. The density and non-porosity of the grout material as observable in FIG. 2 increases over time as a result of hydration.
  • the following chart shows thermal conductivity results for values generated by performing ASTM D1554 - a standard test used by all grout manufacturers. The test results shown were taken at the same age in a plastic state at 48 hours. Typically, test values will rise as the grout ages; however, the grout mixture of the exemplary embodiment (Geo SuperGroutTM) is the only material stiff enough at 7 days to compare.
