Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of solid waste treatment, and in particular to a flotation method and system for decontamination and calcium retention of fly ash from garbage incineration. Background Art

[0002] The information disclosed in this background technology section is only intended to enhance the understanding of the overall background of the invention, and should not necessarily be regarded as an admission or any form of suggestion that the information constitutes the prior art already known to a person skilled in the art.

[0003] Waste incineration fly ash is a fine particle produced during the incineration process. It contains a large amount of pollutants such as heavy metals and chloride salts and is classified as hazardous waste. At present, the treatment methods for waste incineration fly ash mainly include cement solidification, melt solidification, chemical stabilization, etc. However, these methods have problems such as high treatment cost, low resource utilization rate, and easy to cause secondary pollution.

[0004] In recent years, flotation, as an efficient physical separation technology, has received extensive attention and application in the field of waste incineration fly ash treatment. This technology can effectively separate heavy metals and chloride salts in fly ash through differences in surface chemical properties, which not only achieves fly ash reduction treatment, but also provides a new way for its resource utilization. However, traditional flotation methods still face significant challenges in the treatment of waste incineration fly ash, among which the most prominent is the recycling of calcium. Waste incineration fly ash usually contains a large amount of calcium in the form of calcium oxide, calcium hydroxide, etc. These calcium resources have important application value in cement manufacturing, building materials production and other fields. However, existing fly ash treatment processes often find it difficult to achieve efficient recovery of calcium, resulting in the waste of this precious resource, which has become one of the key bottlenecks restricting the resource utilization of fly ash.
