Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of concrete production, in particular to a quality control system for high-mica granite machine-made sandstone concrete. Background Art

[0002] The performance of concrete is highly dependent on the quality of its aggregate. Granite is one of the ideal sources of aggregate due to its high hardness and strong weather resistance. However, the mica content in some granites (such as two-mica granite and biotite granite) is as high as 5%-10%, which leads to the following problems in concrete: Strength loss: The mica cleavage surface is smooth, and the bonding strength with cement slurry is weak, resulting in a 20%-30% reduction in 28-day compressive strength. Durability deterioration: Mica expands after absorbing water, causing microcracks, and the chloride ion diffusion coefficient increases by 1-2 orders of magnitude. Workability fluctuations: Flaky mica hinders particle flow, and the slump loss rate increases by more than 40%. Currently, approximately 300 million tons of natural granite aggregates after tunnel excavation are discarded each year worldwide due to excessive mica content.

[0003] Mica is an aluminosilicate mineral with a continuous layered silicon-oxygen tetrahedral structure. Mica, a harmful impurity in granite sand, significantly affects the workability, mechanical properties, and durability of concrete. The interface is the weakest link in concrete and plays a crucial role in its failure. The failure process is closely related to the properties of the aggregate and the strength differences between the aggregates. Aggregate type, strength, shape, surface impurities, pore structure, water absorption, and surface bond strength all have a significant impact on concrete, particularly high-performance concrete.

[0004] The existing technologies for processing mica in granite mainly include mechanical sorting and acid washing. The mechanical sorting method uses the density difference between mica and quartz / feldspar (mica is 2.7-3.1g / cm 3 , quartz 2.65g / cm 3 ) , using airflow or heavy liquid sorting, but this can easily lead to fine particle loss, with a sorting efficiency of only 50%-60% for particles <0.6mm, resulting in a shortage of fine aggregate. Acid treatment uses hydrofluoric acid (HF) to dissolve the Al3+ between mica layers, which can easily corrode the aggregate surface, increase porosity by over 15%, and increase the crushing value by 3-5 percentage points. After mechanical sorting, the mica residue still reaches 3-4%, and 50-80L of fluoride-containing wastewater is generated per ton of aggregate, resulting in high treatment costs.

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention provides a quality control system for high-mica granite manufactured sand and gravel concrete. This system utilizes microwave-liquid nitrogen synergistic stripping technology to reduce the mica content in high-mica granite, thereby effectively controlling the quality of granite manufactured sand and gravel concrete. This system eliminates the need for acid wash wastewater, allows for recyclable liquid nitrogen (recovery rate >85%), and offers high selectivity, with a mica stripping rate >80% and a quartz / feldspar damage rate <3%.

[0051] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely for the purpose of explaining the relevant invention and are not intended to limit the invention. It should also be noted that, for ease of description, only portions relevant to the invention are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0052] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features of the embodiments in this application can be combined with each other. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0053] Example 1

[0054] The present invention provides a high mica granite machine-made sandstone concrete quality control system, referring to Figure 1 , including step S1, transporting the pre-treated granite aggregate to the double-cavity microwave irradiation equipment 3, utilizing the sensitivity of water molecules between mica layers to microwaves (dielectric loss tanδ = 0.03-0.05), inducing the expansion of the mica crystal layer through microwave radiation, thereby weakening the interlayer bonding force. Mica (KAl2(AlSi3O 10The interlayer hydroxyl groups (-OH) and adsorbed water in the mica (OH)2) exhibit high dielectric loss (tan δ ≈ 0.04) to microwaves (2450 MHz), while quartz and feldspar barely absorb microwaves. This targeted heating of the water between the mica interlayers can locally raise the temperature to 110-150°C, while the granite matrix temperature is <80°C. Microwave heating causes the mica interlayers to expand, while liquid nitrogen (-196°C) spraying causes them to shrink instantaneously, generating shear stress.

[0055] The pretreatment of the granite aggregate comprises the following steps:

[0056] S11, crushing the granite aggregate and separating the crushed granite aggregate into two grades of 5-10 mm and 10-20 mm using a vibrating screen (removing fine powder and drying with hot air at 80°C to a moisture content of less than 0.5% to prevent free water from interfering with microwave heating);

[0057] S12, the granite aggregate is transported to the vibrating feeder 1 in a graded manner. The vibrating feeder 1 evenly transports the granite aggregate to the pulse airflow cleaning device 2 to remove dust from the surface of the granite aggregate. Pulse airflow cleaning (pressure 0.6MPa, gas consumption 3m 3 / t), remove surface powder (<0.075mm particles).

[0058] In step S2, the dual-cavity microwave irradiation equipment 3 detects the dielectric constant of the granite aggregate, performs high-frequency treatment on the granite aggregate with a dielectric loss factor greater than 0.05, and performs low-frequency treatment on the granite aggregate with a dielectric loss factor less than or equal to 0.05.

[0059] In step S2, the dielectric constant detection of the granite aggregate includes the following steps:

[0060] S21, intermittently detecting the granite aggregate delivered to the dual-cavity microwave irradiation device 3 through a plurality of dielectric constant sensors 325;

[0061] S22, obtaining the dielectric loss factors detected by the plurality of dielectric constant sensors 325 each time, and calculating an average value of the plurality of dielectric loss factors as an ideal value for this detection;

[0062] S23, performing corresponding high-frequency processing or low-frequency processing on the granite aggregate tested this time according to the ideal value of this time.

[0063] Several dielectric constant sensors 325 for testing are arranged sequentially along the conveying direction of the granite aggregate. The dielectric constant sensors 325 operate synchronously and perform intermittent testing. The area between the two dielectric constant sensors 325 that are farthest apart is the testing area, and the time it takes for the granite aggregate to pass through this testing area is the intermittent wake-up time of the dielectric constant sensors 325. In other words, the dielectric constant sensors 325 perform centralized testing on several aggregates passing through the testing area. After the tested aggregates flow into the dual-cavity microwave irradiation device 3, the aggregates to be tested subsequently flow through the testing area via the third conveyor belt 324 for testing, and this cycle continues.

[0064] The high-frequency treatment frequency is 2450MHz, the power density is 3.5kW / t, and the duration is 50-60 seconds. The surface temperature of the granite aggregate is raised to 110±5℃ (infrared temperature feedback control). The water molecules between the mica layers (structural formula KAl2(AlSi3O 10 )(OH)2) dielectric heating causes the interlayer spacing to expand from 1.0 nm to 1.8 nm (XRD detection).

[0065] The low-frequency treatment has a frequency of 915MHz, a power density of 1.8kW / t, and lasts for 80-90 seconds. It heats the granite aggregate to 80-90°C in the deep layer and increases the penetration depth by three times.

[0066] The transmission system adopts high temperature resistant alumina ceramic conveyor belt, which can continuously transport aggregates, with a temperature resistance of -200 to 300℃ and an adjustable speed of 0.2-2m / min.

[0067] In step S3, the microwave-treated granite aggregate is transported to a liquid nitrogen spraying device 5, where liquid nitrogen is sprayed onto the surface of the granite aggregate. This thermal shock stress causes microcracks between the mica layers, triggering delamination. The liquid nitrogen is stored in a Dewar tank (5000L capacity, 1.2MPa operating pressure). The granite aggregate is cooled from 110°C to -196°C, creating microcracks (5-20μm wide) between the mica flakes, achieving a delamination efficiency of 82-87%. After the spraying, the liquid nitrogen becomes gaseous, and a condensation recovery tower collects volatile organic compounds. The residual gas is treated by catalytic oxidation.

[0068] Spraying liquid nitrogen includes the following steps:

[0069] S31, the microwave-treated granite aggregate is alternately temporarily stored in a double-station buffer bin, with one buffer bin in a collecting state while the other is feeding the liquid nitrogen spraying device 5. The internal temperature of the buffer bin is tested before each feeding.

[0070] S32, the aggregate after temperature detection flows into the liquid nitrogen spraying equipment 5, and a plurality of nozzles 57 are individually controlled to spray liquid nitrogen onto the granite aggregate;

[0071] S33, opening a corresponding number of nozzles 57 according to the temperature of the buffer bin before feeding. The higher the temperature, the more nozzles 57 are opened.

[0072] Several spraying nozzles 57 in the liquid nitrogen spraying device 5 are arranged in sequence along the conveying direction of the granite aggregate, and each nozzle 57 is controlled individually; the nozzles 57 spray liquid nitrogen (-196°C) with a flow rate of ≥2L / min·t for 20 seconds. The thermal shock stress causes micro cracks >5μm between the mica layers.

[0073] S33, according to the temperature of the buffer bin before feeding, corresponding number of nozzles 57 are opened. The higher the temperature, the more nozzles 57 are opened. The nozzles 57 are fan-shaped vacuum insulation nozzles with a spray angle of 60 degrees and a spray distance of 150 mm.

[0074] Step S4: The granite aggregate is returned to room temperature by the temperature return device 6, and the granite aggregate is separated from the mica by the air separation and impurity removal device 7. The granite aggregate is returned to room temperature (25°C) by 40°C hot air to avoid condensation water adsorption, and the mica flakes (2.7-3.1g / cm 3 ) and granite particles (2.6-2.8g / cm 3 ) density difference, multi-stage air flow sorting (wind speed 8-12m / s, inclination angle 25°) is used to separate the flat particles (mica-enriched part) in 5-20mm aggregate, which can reduce the mica content to less than 2%.

[0075] Example 2

[0076] There are three major defects in the interface transition zone between high-mica granite aggregate and cement matrix: physical defects: smooth cleavage surface of mica (contact angle>100°), weak mechanical bite force; chemical inertness: mica (KAl2(AlSi3O 10 )(OH)2) The surface hydroxyl density is low (only 1.2-1.5 / nm 2 ), it is difficult to bond with cement hydration products; pore concentration: the porosity of the interface transition zone is 3-5 times higher than that of the cement matrix.

[0077] The present invention provides a quality control system for high-mica granite machine-made sandstone concrete. Based on Example 1, the system further includes step S5, wherein the air-selected granite aggregate is immersed in a mixture of a silane coupling agent and a nano-SiO2 sol (particle size 20 nm, solid content 15%), followed by drying at 120°C to form a composite layer 250-350 nm thick. This reduces the porosity of the mica-cement interface transition zone by more than 40%. The nano-SiO2 network penetrates between the mica layers (to a depth of 2-5 μm), providing physical anchoring points. The nano-SiO2 sol is recovered using an ethanol recovery system.

[0078] The formation of the composite layer comprises the following steps:

[0079] S51, ethyl orthosilicate, ethanol, and water were mixed in a molar ratio of 1:8:2, and 3-3.5 wt% of a silane coupling agent was added. The pH was adjusted to 9.0-9.8 with ammonia catalyst, and hydrolyzed for 4 h.

[0080] S52, soaking the air-selected granite aggregate for 30 minutes, centrifugally dehydrating (speed 800 rpm, 30 seconds), and then thermally curing at 120°C for 1 hour;

[0081] S53, the film thickness is measured by ellipsometer and controlled at 300±50nm.

[0082] Film formation mechanism: hydrolysis condensation reaction to form ≡Si-O-Si≡ network, infrared spectrum detection 1080cm -1 The intensity of the characteristic peak at the pore size is increased by 2.3 times.

[0083] In step S52, the aggregate soaking step includes: preheating the aggregate to 60±5°C (to reduce surface tension); immersing the aggregate in the sol (liquid-solid ratio 3:1), and ultrasonically treating for 15 minutes; centrifugal dehydration (800 rpm, 30 seconds, residual liquid rate <5%); and thermal curing at 120°C for 1 hour to form a porous SiO2 gel film.

[0084] The method further includes step S6, wherein the granite aggregate is pre-coated with a MgO-KH2PO4 system, and the struvite phase formed seals the mica cleavage plane, and then participates in the preparation of concrete. The coating thickness is 150±20 μm (controlled by an eddy current thickness gauge).

[0085] The pre-wrapping comprises the following steps:

[0086] In step S61, a MgO / KH2PO4 molar ratio of 3:1, a water-cement ratio of 0.10, a borax retarder addition amount of 1.5%, and an optional pore former (polystyrene microspheres, particle size 20-50 μm) were set. The granite aggregate was coated with a first layer using a biaxial forced mixer. During curing, steam curing at 80°C for 2 h was used to form a transition layer with a porosity of 35 ± 3%.

[0087] S62, with a MgO / KH2PO4 molar ratio of 5:1, a water-cement ratio of 0.15, and a borax retarder addition of 2.5%, and an optional 1% nano-Al2O3 (to enhance wear resistance), is coated with a second layer of granite aggregate using a twin-shaft forced mixer. After pore filling, the surface hardness reaches HV450. After 24 hours of room temperature curing, the surface hardness reaches HV450 (determined by microindentation).
