Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of non-metallic materials technology, specifically to a steel slag-based non-metallic abrasive and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Steel slag is a solid byproduct generated during the smelting of crude steel, accounting for approximately 10% to 15% of crude steel production.

[0003] Iron tailings are byproducts discharged after iron ore has been processed through grinding, flotation, or magnetic separation under specific conditions to remove the "useful portion." They consist of fine particles and contain a large amount of unused iron (Fe). The disposal of unused iron tailings through stockpiling and landfilling not only occupies significant land resources but also causes serious environmental pollution. Therefore, the proper disposal of iron tailings is urgent. How to address the disposal of these two major industrial solid wastes and transform them into resource-based assets has become a focus of common concern in the metallurgical and mining industries.

[0004] Steel slag contains abundant SiO2, CaO, Al2O3, MgO, and Fe2O3, while iron tailings contain abundant SiO2 and Fe2O3, both important components of glass. Research shows that most recycling methods for steel slag and iron tailings involve reducing and separating the iron-containing components for use as metallurgical raw materials. Furthermore, when steel slag is used as a building or road construction material, the presence of FeO and Fe2O3 poses safety risks, and Fe-containing materials are generally not added for compositional adjustments. However, research on preparing abrasives for blast cleaning using steel slag has revealed that iron oxides enhance the hardness and overall strength of the abrasive. Previous studies have not shown any adjustment of the steel slag composition to improve abrasive performance, and the granulation methods used are mostly water quenching or tumbling, resulting in inconsistent abrasive particle size and quality. This not only wastes water resources and generates polluting gases but also results in low waste heat recovery rates during the production process.

[0005] Therefore, the co-processing of metallurgical solid waste and mineral solid waste to prepare non-metallic abrasives can promote the resource transformation of bulk industrial solid waste. However, how to rationally combine the effective components in different solid wastes, make reasonable use of the sensible heat of slag and the waste heat of products, and efficiently and cost-effectively prepare high-performance non-metallic abrasives with stable quality is an urgent problem to be solved in the metallurgical and mining industries at this stage, and it is also a challenge. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art mentioned above, the purpose of this invention is to provide a steel slag-based non-metallic abrasive and its preparation method, which aims to improve the performance of steel slag-based sandblasting abrasive, expand new ways of utilizing steel slag, and increase the utilization rate of steel slag and tailings.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a steel slag-based non-metallic abrasive, wherein, by weight percentage, the abrasive is composed of the following components: 89wt%~94wt% molten steel slag, 1.28wt%~4.68wt% iron tailings, and 3.38wt%~7.71wt% lime. The abrasive has a hardness of 7~8 Mohs, an f-CaO content of ≤2.4%, and an apparent density of 3300~3600 kg / m³.

[0008] Furthermore, the molten steel slag is selected from converter or electric furnace steelmaking slag, with a temperature of 1500~1600℃, a TFe content of 10wt%~25wt%, and a basicity of 1.9~2.1.

[0009] Furthermore, the lime is quicklime with a CaO content ranging from 95wt% to 99wt% and a particle size ranging from 5mm to 40mm.

[0010] Furthermore, the iron tailings have a TFe content of 8wt%~20wt%, a SiO2 content of ≤76wt%, a particle size range of ≤3mm, and a moisture content of <1wt%.

[0011] On the other hand, a method for preparing a steel slag-based non-metallic abrasive is provided, wherein the abrasive comprises the components as described in any one of claims 1-4, and includes the following steps: 1) Molten steel slag, iron tailings, and lime are poured into a tundish for homogenization, reheating, and stirring: First, during the addition of molten steel slag to the tundish, electromagnetic reheating and pneumatic stirring are continuously carried out, with the pneumatic stirring pipeline pressure at 0.2MPa~0.3MPa. After iron tailings and lime are added to the tundish, temperature is measured and reheating and pneumatic stirring are performed, with the pneumatic stirring pipeline pressure reduced to 0.1MPa~0.2MPa. Among them, the iron tailings are preheated before use to reduce their moisture content to below 1wt%. 2) Control the temperature of the tempered molten steel slag obtained in step 1) at 1500~1600℃, and let the tempered molten steel slag flow out through the sliding gate device; 3) The outflowing quenched and tempered molten steel slag is crushed and granulated using an air quenching granulation device to obtain slag particles. The slag particles enter a collection pool, where atomized water is used for enhanced cooling above the collection pool; the slag particles are cooled to below 200°C. 4) The slag particles obtained in step 3) are mechanically vibrated and screened. The material that passes through the screen is steel slag-based non-metallic abrasive.

[0012] On the other hand, an intermediate package for the above preparation method is provided, comprising: an outer stainless steel shell; The intermediate permanent layer has a thickness of 100mm~150mm; The inner layer of magnesium refractory material has a thickness of 150mm~200mm; A channel-type electromagnetic induction heating device is installed on the side of the casing; A pneumatic mixing device includes a permeable brick and a fixed base brick, wherein the permeable brick and the fixed base brick are connected by a mortise and tenon structure; The sliding nozzle device is installed outside the slag outlet.

[0013] Furthermore, the permanent layer is a castable material, which is baked at 800℃~1200℃ for 8~10 hours before use.

[0014] Furthermore, the center line of the pneumatic stirring hole is 500mm~700mm away from the outer wall of the left cladding of the iron core, and the center line of the slag discharge port is 1500mm~1800mm away from the outer wall of the right cladding of the iron core.

[0015] Beneficial effects of this invention: (1) The steel slag-based non-metallic abrasive provided in this embodiment of the invention adjusts the addition ratio of steel slag, iron tailings, and lime to regulate the compounds that make up the glassy substances in the steel slag and iron tailings, as well as the iron-containing minerals in the iron tailings, to achieve a balance between the Fe content and basicity of the slag. Then, the steel slag-based non-metallic abrasive is produced by gas quenching, realizing the high-value-added development and utilization of two bulk solid wastes. By adjusting the composition of the slag, the fluidity of the mixed slag is improved, and the viscosity and surface tension meet the conditions of the gas quenching process. During the gas quenching and granulation process of the slag, the granulated steel slag is mainly composed of iron-containing amorphous phase, and iron-containing minerals will aggregate near the surface. A small amount of iron-containing spinel-like high-hardness minerals are dispersed inside. This structure can significantly improve the overall hardness and strength of the granulated steel slag.

[0016] (2) Fully utilize the sensible heat of the molten slag for composition adjustment, combined with a small amount of tundish reheating and homogenization technology, and use high-pressure air to crush the molten slag to produce non-metallic abrasives, turning waste into resources. Compared with water quenching and drum quenching, the gas quenching method can save 80-90% of water resources, and the granulated steel slag after gas quenching has advantages such as small particle size, low free calcium oxide content, good thermodynamic stability, and spherical or near-spherical appearance. After screening, it can be used directly, avoiding the energy and labor consumption of secondary processing, solving the problem of by-product utilization at the source of the metallurgical industry, and reducing solid waste output. The gas quenching granulation process can not only efficiently utilize the waste heat of the molten slag, making the waste heat recovery rate reach 50%-60%, but also reduce environmental pollution.

[0028] Example 11:

[0029] A method for preparing a steel slag-based non-metallic abrasive, wherein the abrasive comprises the components described in the above embodiments, includes the following steps: 1) Molten steel slag, iron tailings, and lime are poured into an intermediate ladle for homogenization, reheating, and stirring to obtain the treated slag. The iron tailings need to be preheated before use to reduce their moisture content to below 1 wt%. The reheating method is electromagnetic heating, and the stirring method is pneumatic stirring. 2) Control the temperature of the mixed slag obtained in step 1) at 1500~1600℃, and let the slag flow out through the sliding gate device; 3) The molten steel slag flowing out is crushed and granulated using an air-quenching granulation device. The slag particles enter a collection tank and are cooled to below 200°C. The slag that is not completely crushed is crushed and sent to the collection tank. During the air quenching and rapid cooling process, the air-quenching granulation device uses atomized water above the collection tank for enhanced cooling, with wastewater and / or sewage as the cooling medium. 4) The slag particles obtained in step 3) are mechanically vibrated and screened through a 6-mesh mechanical sieve with a sieve hole diameter of 3 mm. The material that passes through the sieve is steel slag-based non-metallic abrasive.

[0030] Example 12:

Insert the pneumatic stirring hole 108, and then place the fixed seat brick 105 and the ventilated brick 106 together. The connection between the ventilated brick 106 and the fixed seat brick 105 is a tenon and mortise structure. After the fixed seat brick 105 and the ventilated brick 106 are connected, adjust the edge of the fixed seat brick 105 to be parallel to the stainless steel shell 101. Place refractory material around the fixed seat brick 105 for fixation. The bottom base of the sliding nozzle device is fixed to the outside of the slag outlet hole 113 of the tundish by welding. The sliding nozzle device is connected to the bottom base by thread.

Obstructions are placed on the upper sides of the permeable brick 106 and the slag outlet brick 112. Then, the bottom of the tundish is filled with magnesia refractory material, followed by the tundish magnesia refractory material layer 103 lining, and finally, the magnesia refractory material on the sides is added. The bottom and side walls are filled with a 150-200mm thick layer of magnesia refractory material 103. The magnesia refractory material layer 103 needs to be baked for 2-3 hours at a temperature of 800-1200℃ to give it a certain strength and hardness. Then, it is placed in an impact cup 104. The obstructions on the upper side of the permeable brick 106 and the upper side of the slag outlet brick 112 are removed to prepare for the addition of raw materials and auxiliary materials, process heating and stirring. The pneumatic stirring hole 108 and the slag outlet hole 113 are located on the transverse centerline of the tundish. The centerline of the pneumatic stirring hole 108 is 500-700mm away from the outer wall of the left side of the tundish shell of the iron core, and the centerline of the slag outlet hole 113 is 1500-1800mm away from the outer wall of the right side of the tundish shell of the iron core.
