However, this method requires that the carbon dioxide gas be first absorbed into a liquid, which is complicated and costly. In the scheme of transporting the carbon dioxide gas to the reaction chamber alone, the contact area between the carbon dioxide gas and the fly ash is small, and the carbonization efficiency is low.

[0027] This embodiment provides a CO2 carbon fixation device based on injection of fly ash slurry, including a CO2 air inlet pipeline 1, a feeding device, a fly ash slurry tank 2, a stirring device, an injection device, and a CO2 air outlet 14;

[0028] The fly ash slurry tank 2 is divided into a first part 2-1 and a second part 2-2, wherein the first part 2-1 and the second part 2-2 are open above, the CO2 air inlet pipe 1 and the CO2 air outlet 14 are connected to the top of the first part 2-1 of the fly ash slurry tank 2, the feeding device is arranged above the second part 2-2, and the openings of the first part 2-1 and the second part 2-2 are isolated from each other and not connected.

[0029] Specifically, the feeding device includes a water storage tank 21 and a fly ash raw material bin 24. The water storage tank 21 conveys water to the fly ash slurry tank 2 through a water outlet pipe 22. The fly ash in the fly ash raw material bin 24 is conveyed to the fly ash slurry tank 2 through a raw material conveyor belt 25. The stirring device includes a spiral stirring blade 32 and a motor 31 for driving the spiral stirring blade 32. The spiral stirring blade 32 is arranged inside the fly ash slurry tank 2 to mix and stir the fly ash and water into fly ash slurry.

[0030] The injection device is connected to the fly ash slurry tank 2 through a fluid conveying device 33 to spray the fly ash slurry in the CO2 inlet pipe 1 and below the CO2 outlet 14. Specifically, the injection device is divided into a first nozzle 36-1 arranged at the CO2 inlet pipe 1 and a second nozzle 36-2 at the CO2 outlet, and also includes a three-way diverter pipe 34, the inlet of the three-way diverter pipe 34 is connected to the discharge port of the fluid conveying device 33, and the two outlets of the three-way diverter pipe 33 are respectively connected to the first conveying pipe 35-1 and the second conveying pipe 35-2, the first conveying pipe 35-1 is connected to the first nozzle 36-1, and the second conveying pipe 35-2 is connected to the second nozzle 36-2. The slurry in the fly ash slurry tank 2 is transported to the first nozzle 36-1 and the second nozzle 36-2 through the fluid conveying device 33 for injection. Among them, the fluid conveying device 33 is a water outlet pump.

[0031] Open the CO2 gas valve 11, and the CO2 gas is blown into the CO2 inlet pipe 1 from the air inlet 12 through the blower 13 to fill the entire carbon fixation device. A part of the CO2 gas undergoes carbonization reaction with the fly ash slurry in the CO2 inlet pipe and then falls into the first part 2-1 of the fly ash slurry tank with the slurry. Another part undergoes carbonization reaction with the fly ash slurry on the surface of the fly ash slurry tank 2. The remaining part undergoes carbonization reaction with the fly ash slurry sprayed from the bottom of the CO2 outlet 14, and the unreacted part is discharged from the CO2 outlet.

[0032] In order to discharge the fly ash slurry after the reaction from the fly ash slurry tank, a discharging mechanism is also included, which includes a discharging pipe and a valve and a water outlet pump 41 arranged on the discharging pipe. The inlet of the discharging pipe is connected to the fly ash slurry tank 2. By opening the valve and the water outlet pump 41, the fly ash slurry after the reaction can be discharged from the outlet 42 of the discharging pipe for other uses.

[0033] In order to achieve accurate control of the slurry flow and ensure accurate proportioning and supply of fly ash slurry, in this embodiment, a liquid flow valve 23 is further provided on the outlet pipe 22. The concentration of the slurry can be controlled by adjusting the liquid flow valve 23, ensuring that the fly ash slurry at the bottom of the fly ash slurry tank is connected in liquid and solid phases, thereby preventing CO2 gas from overflowing from the second part 2-2.

[0034] The specific implementation methods are as follows:

[0035] S1 feeding stage:

[0036] First, fly ash A is located in fly ash raw material bin 24, and falls from fly ash raw material bin 24 to raw material conveyor belt 25, water B enters from water storage tank 21, liquid flow valve 23 is opened, and water B in water storage tank 21 flows into second part 2-2 of fly ash slurry tank through liquid flow valve 23 and outlet pipe 22. When the first part 2-1 and the lower part 2-2 of fly ash slurry tank are connected by slurry liquid-solid phase, the addition of raw materials is stopped.

[0037] Then, the motor 31 is started, and the slag A and the water B are uniformly stirred by the stirring shaft and the spiral stirring blades 32 to form a fly ash slurry that can be used for pumping and nozzle injection.

[0038] S2 carbonization reaction process:

[0039] First, open the fluid conveying device 33 and the valve, so that the fly ash slurry flows into the first conveying pipeline 35-1 and the second conveying pipeline 35-2 respectively through the three-way diversion pipeline 34, and then is sprayed to the air inlet in the CO2 air inlet pipeline and the CO2 air outlet 14 respectively through the first nozzle 36-1 and the second nozzle 36-2. The fly ash slurry is transported, sprayed, reacts with CO2 gas, and then flows into the first part 2-1 of the fly ash slurry tank. In the process of circulating injection of the fly ash slurry, the lower parts of the first part 2-1 and the second part 2-2 of the fly ash slurry tank are still connected by the slurry liquid-solid phase to prevent CO2 gas from escaping from the second part 2-2 of the fly ash slurry tank.

[0040] At the same time, the CO2 gas valve 11 is opened, and the CO2 gas enters the CO2 intake pipe 1 through the blower 12, and a part of the gas reacts with the fly ash slurry sprayed by the first nozzle 36-1 in the CO2 intake pipe 1. The fly ash slurry fully contacted with CO2 flows from the CO2 intake pipe 1 into the first part 2-1 of the fly ash slurry tank.

[0041] After the CO2 gas passes through the CO2 inlet pipe 1, a portion of the CO2 gas contacts the slurry liquid surface on the first part 2-1, and the remaining portion of the CO2 gas rises below the gas outlet 14 and undergoes a carbonization reaction with the fly ash slurry sprayed by the second nozzle 36-2 below the gas outlet, and the carbonized fly ash slurry flows into the first part 2-1 of the fly ash slurry tank. The unreacted CO2 is discharged from the gas outlet 14 and then recycled by other measures.

[0042] The fly ash slurry sprayed from the first nozzle 36-1 and the second nozzle 36-2 in the CO2 inlet pipe 1 and below the CO2 outlet 14 flows into the first part 2-1 of the fly ash slurry tank from the CO2 inlet pipe 1 and below the inlet, and reacts more fully with CO2 under the stirring of the spiral stirring blades 32 to generate carbonate products such as calcium carbonate.

[0043] Unloading process:

[0044] After the fly ash slurry has been fully circulated for a specified time, the fly ash slurry will be fully in contact with CO2 to undergo a carbonization reaction. Then close the CO2 inlet valve 11 to stop ventilation, turn off the motor 31 to stop stirring, close the fluid conveying device 33 and the valve, stop the circulation and injection of the fly ash slurry, and finally perform the unloading process. The specified time refers to the time during which the fly ash slurry fully absorbs CO2 to undergo a carbonization reaction, which can be obtained from actual working condition tests. Open the valve and the water outlet pump 41 to perform the unloading process, and the fly ash slurry after the carbonization reaction is discharged from the discharge port 42.

[0045] In a specific implementation manner, the carbonization reaction of CO2 gas and fly ash slurry mainly has three stages, namely:

[0046] (1) In the CO2 intake pipe 1, CO2 reacts with the fly ash slurry injected from the first intake nozzle 36-1 to undergo carbonization reaction.

[0047] (2) The CO2 gas filled in the carbon fixation device contacts the slurry liquid surface on the first part 2-1 to cause a carbonization reaction.

[0048] (3) CO2 reacts with the fly ash slurry injected by the second nozzle 36-2 to undergo carbonization reaction below the CO2 outlet 14. The injected fly ash slurry absorbs CO2 and flows into the fly ash slurry tank 2. The slurry reacts with CO2 to undergo a more complete carbonization reaction under the action of the stirring shaft.

[0049] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the utility model, but the design concept of the utility model is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field who uses this concept to make non-substantial changes to the utility model within the technical scope disclosed by the utility model shall be deemed to infringe the protection scope of the utility model.
