The invention belongs to the technical field of
inorganic materials, and particularly discloses a method for producing water glass and co-producing
sylvite by utilizing
biomass, which comprises the following steps: (a) carrying out
oxygen-enriched
combustion on the
biomass at 650-800 DEG C; (b) mixing
biomass ash obtained by
combustion with water, carrying out heating pretreatment, and carrying out
solid-liquid separation while the mixture is hot after the heating pretreatment is ended, so as to obtain clarified filtrate and a
biomass ash filter cake; (c) mixing the
biomass ash filter cake with an alkali solution, dissolving, and performing
solid-liquid separation to obtain
biomass ash and water glass; and (d) continuously recycling the clarified filtrate until crystals are separated out, continuously cooling and crystallizing, and carrying out
solid-liquid separation to obtain the
sylvite. According to the method, the directional conversion mode of the
potassium element in the biomass is achieved, the
potassium element is directly extracted, the treated biomass ash enters the rear end to be prepared into the water glass, synchronous production of the bio-based water glass and the high-purity
potassium salt is directly achieved, the process is simple, the cost is low, and an innovative path is provided for industry green transformation.
