Problems solved by technology

Compared with the alkaline process, these methods are characterized by the ability to reduce the amount of waste slag discharge, but the above-mentioned acid processes all have a low recovery rate of alumina, and all of them will make other useful resources in the fly ash, especially gallium, enter the tail slag, resulting in a waste of resources; in addition, under the conditions of high temperature and high pressure, the corrosion of the equipment by acid is very serious, especially the concentrated hydrochloric acid leaching method
Therefore, the acid method reported in the literature has relatively high requirements for equipment, and the discharge of waste residue also has the potential threat of secondary pollution.
[0005] Alkali method is currently a relatively in-depth research method in the comprehensive treatment of fly ash. The representative methods are pre-desilication-soda lime sintering method and limestone sintering method, but both of them have high roasting temperature (>1200°C) , large amount of tailings, and requires precise control of Na / Al ratio and Ca / Si ratio in the system, resulting in complex batching process
In addition, because the eluate is alkaline, part of the silicon oxide is dissolved with the alumina, and the silicon content index of the crude product is small, and further desiliconization is required to meet the requirements of metallurgical grade, resulting in a low overall recovery rate of alumina

Abstract

The invention provides a method for producing aluminum oxide by using fly ash. The method comprises the following steps of: 1) performing predesilicification on the fly ash to obtain desiliconized fly ash; 2) mixing the desiliconized fly ash and sodium carbonate, and roasting to obtain clinker; 3) dissolving the clinker into acid, filtering, and collecting the solution; 4) concentrating the solution to precipitate aluminum salt crystal; and 5) preparing the aluminum oxide product from the aluminum salt crystal. The method for producing the aluminum oxide by using the fly ash has the advantages of low production energy consumption, low waste slag discharge and high product purity.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for producing alumina by utilizing fly ash, which belongs to the field of comprehensive utilization of fly ash. Background technique [0002] At present, in the fly ash produced by thermal power generation in areas such as Inner Mongolia and Shanxi, the content of alumina reaches 40% to 55%, and the content of gallium exceeds 80ppm. Fly ash not only contains huge aluminum resources, but also There are gallium resources with high economic value. Therefore, the development of fly ash is an effective way to protect the environment and fully recycle resources. [0003] The methods of extracting alumina from fly ash can generally be divided into acid method and alkali method: [0004] The acid method refers to the method of directly treating fly ash with hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid to dissolve part of the alumina. For example, concentrated acid leaching method under high temperature and high pressure, ammonium sulf...
