Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of road dust prevention and control, in particular to a road dust suppressant for open-pit coal mine truck transportation in a high-temperature dry environment and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Currently, the primary method for controlling dust on open-pit coal mine road transport is sprinkling water. Due to the high temperature and high pressure caused by friction between the tires of large mining trucks and the ground, the duration of water sprinkling to suppress dust is generally short. This is especially true in the dry, hot summer months, where the duration of water sprinkling is even shorter. Within 3 to 15 minutes, the road surface moisture will completely dry out, losing its dust suppression effect. Therefore, the primary measure for suppressing dust on open-pit coal mine roads is to add environmentally friendly dust suppression components to enhance the water's anti-evaporation effect. Most existing dust suppressants are difficult to prepare and apply on-site in open-pit coal mines on a large scale due to their complex manufacturing processes, high material costs, and poor environmental friendliness. Therefore, it is crucial to develop a low-cost, simple, environmentally friendly, and highly effective dust suppressant for use on mining truck transport roads in high-temperature, dry environments, and its preparation method. Summary of the Invention

[0003] Purpose of the invention: The purpose of the present invention is to provide a dust suppressant for open-pit coal mine truck transportation roads in a high-temperature dry environment and a preparation method thereof. The dust suppressant is sprayed onto the open-pit coal mine truck transportation road, which can achieve a good dust suppression effect during normal operation of the mine truck in a high-temperature dry environment and has strong anti-evaporation performance.

[0004] Technical solution: In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention proposes a dust suppressant for mining truck transportation roads in a high-temperature dry environment. The dust suppressant is composed of a mixture of the following components in mass concentrations: 20-30% glucose, 0.05-0.15% penetrant, 1.5-2.5% water-retaining agent, 1.5-2.5% moisture absorbent, and the rest is water. The high temperature range is 50-70°C.

[0005] Furthermore, the penetrant is an anionic surfactant sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate and / or 1-dodecyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide.

[0006] Furthermore, the water-retaining agent is glycerol and / or butylene glycol.

[0007] Furthermore, the desiccant is sodium chloride and / or calcium chloride.

[0008] On the other hand, the present invention also provides a method for preparing any of the above-mentioned open-pit coal mine truck transportation road dust suppressants for use in a high-temperature dry environment, which specifically comprises the following steps:

[0009] (1) Take 20-30% glucose granules, add the glucose granules to part of the water and stir evenly; then add 1.5-2.5% water retaining agent and stir until the solution is clear and transparent.

[0010] (2) Add 0.05-0.15% of penetrant and 1.5-2.5% of hygroscopic agent to the remaining amount of water and stir until they are completely dissolved and no particles are suspended.

[0011] (3) The solutions obtained in (1) and (2) are stirred and mixed evenly to obtain a finished dust suppressant for preventing and controlling dust on open-pit coal mine truck transportation roads.

[0012] Furthermore, the amount of water used in step (1) is 50-70% of the water content in the dust suppressant.

[0013] Furthermore, in step (2), the penetrant and the hygroscopic agent are completely dissolved until there are no suspended particles in the solution and then mixed with the above solution (1).

[0014] Beneficial technical effects: Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of the present invention has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0015] (1) The dust suppressant for open-pit coal mine truck transportation in high-temperature, dry environments of the present invention exhibits excellent wetting, moisture absorption, and water retention capabilities, extending the time that moisture remains in road dust. Laboratory tests under the same temperature and humidity conditions showed that the evaporation time of the dust suppressant was four times longer than that of deionized water, indicating that the dust suppressant of the present invention effectively prolonged the evaporation time of moisture.

[0016] (2) More than 99% of the components of the open-pit coal mine truck transportation road dust suppressant for high-temperature dry environments of the present invention are environmentally friendly materials. Its main ingredient, glucose, is the most widely distributed and most important monosaccharide in nature. It has the characteristics of being non-toxic and odorless, green and environmentally friendly, and having a wide range of sources and applications.

[0017] (3) The density of the dust suppressant for open-pit coal mine truck transportation in a high-temperature dry environment of the present invention is about 1.12×10 3 kg / m3, on-site dust suppressant spraying can be done with a mining sprinkler truck. Under the condition that the end-to-end transport road does not get muddy, the spraying cost is 0.73 yuan / m 2 There is a good dust suppression effect on the left and right.

[0018] (4) The dust suppressant for open-pit coal mine truck transportation in a high-temperature, dry environment of the present invention was used to conduct a practical application test on-site in an open-pit mine in a high-temperature, dry, and water-scarce region in northern China. The results show that the dust suppressant for open-pit coal mine truck transportation in a high-temperature, dry environment of the present invention has a significant wetting effect on road dust, can keep the road dust moist for a long time, and effectively prevent and control road dust. The dust suppressant has good anti-evaporation and water retention properties. Under hot and dry conditions in summer, the effective dust suppression time of spraying the dust suppressant once on the end road of an open-pit coal mine is 5 hours. Combined with the watering process, the transportation road under normal operating conditions of the mine truck can continue to be dust-free for three days, which can effectively reduce the content of suspended dust particles in the air of the mining area.

[0019] (5) The dust suppressant for high-temperature, dry open-pit coal mine truck transportation and its preparation method of the present invention exhibit excellent moisture retention, are low-cost, and demonstrate good field test results. Compared with other commercially available dust suppressant products, it has advantages such as convenient production and transportation and simple on-site preparation. Furthermore, compared with existing dust suppressants, it has the significant advantage of being applicable to open-pit mines.

[0020] (6) In order to reduce the water consumption and dust pollution in open-pit coal mines in high-temperature, dry and water-scarce areas, the dust suppressant of the present invention is used on site in combination with a watering process. By combining different watering methods, a three-day dust suppression effect is achieved by spraying the dust suppressant only once. The ground temperature of the open-pit mine in the field test is as high as 50°C in summer. The use of this dust suppressant can achieve a dust suppression effect of 5 hours. In order to verify whether the dust suppressant can play a dust suppression effect again after 5 hours of water use in the spraying area, a dust suppression dosage of 1L / m 2 and 0.5 L / m 2 The test results show that after watering again, 0.5L / m 2 The dust suppression effect in the area is 2.5h, 1L / m 2 The dust suppression effect in the area is 3.5 hours. In field tests, the dust suppressant of the present invention has reduced water consumption and dust pollution in open-pit mines without causing mechanical damage to mining trucks. After use, the road surface smoothness is very good. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
