Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of solid waste treatment and sulfur resource utilization, and relates to a method for adjusting atmosphere by gasifying sludge from sulfur-containing flue gas to reduce sulfur and nitrate and solidify heavy metals. 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] Restore SO 2 Sulfur preparation is a good sulfur recovery process, which can not only solve SO 2 Emissions and pollution problems can also alleviate the current shortage of sulfur resources. CO reduces SO 2 The technology is considered to be a desulfurization process with great industrial prospects due to its wide sources, few side reactions and high product purity. 2 , which can easily cause catalyst poisoning and failure, and requires pretreatment; the flue gas contains SO 2 In addition to other pollutants, such as NOx, heavy metals, etc., the overall flue gas purification process is cumbersome, and the heavy metals are only transferred but not solidified and recycled.

[0004] Sludge contains heavy metals, various bacteria and viruses, etc. Improper disposal can cause serious disease transmission and secondary environmental pollution. In existing sludge disposal technologies, problems such as pollutant control, cost reduction and product value-added have not been well solved. The safety and stability of heavy metals are the focus of attention. It is urgent to develop more advanced and environmentally friendly sludge treatment methods and processes. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for adjusting the atmosphere of sulfur-containing flue gasification sludge to reduce sulfur and nitrate and solidify heavy metals, which can not only achieve the coordinated treatment of sludge and avoid excessive emissions of CO, but also achieve multiple pollutants (SO 2 、NO X , CO and volatile heavy metals).

[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution of the present invention is:

[0007] On the one hand, a method for adjusting the atmosphere by gasifying sludge with sulfur-containing flue gas to reduce sulfur and nitrate and solidify heavy metals, wherein the sludge is made into sludge powder, and the sludge powder is treated with sulfur-containing flue gas at a set temperature to reduce the O in the sulfur-containing flue gas. 2 Eliminate the simultaneous generation of CO and / or H 2etc., to achieve sludge disposal and reaction atmosphere regulation, obtain conditioned gas, and the conditioned gas is used to generate CO and / or H in the conditioned gas under the action of a dual-effect catalyst. 2 The sulfur oxides and nitrogen oxides in the tempering gas are reduced to obtain nitrogen and sulfur, thereby achieving desulfurization and denitrification. At the same time, sulfur vapor reacts with heavy metals in the tempering gas to produce sulfides, thereby fixing the heavy metals. The tempering gas after the reaction is separated into gas and solid.

[0008] The present invention uses the generated CO as a reducing agent to perform dual-effect catalytic desulfurization and denitrification. At the same time, it uses the characteristics of sulfur and heavy metals such as Hg, Cd, and Pb to easily react to form stable low-toxic sulfides, which can achieve the removal of volatile heavy metals while enriching and mineralizing heavy metals, and can be separated and recovered through "sulfurization-volatilization". However, the residual O 2 Catalytic reduction of SO to CO 2 and NO have an important influence, which is the key to restricting the reduction efficiency. Therefore, the present invention uses sulfur-containing flue gas to treat the sludge first, and then eliminates O in the sulfur-containing flue gas. 2 CO and / or H are produced simultaneously 2 Etc., to achieve sludge disposal and reaction atmosphere control.

[0009] In addition, compared with further oxidation of sulfur oxides to produce sulfuric acid, the sulfur prepared in the present invention has the advantages of higher added value, wide application, and easy storage and transportation.

[0010] On the other hand, a system for adjusting the atmosphere of sulfur-containing flue gasification sludge to reduce sulfur and nitrate and solidify heavy metals comprises:

[0011] A sludge pretreatment module, used to convert sludge into sludge powder;

[0012] Flue gasification sludge conditioning module is used to treat sludge powder with sulfur-containing flue gas and eliminate O in the sulfur-containing flue gas. 2 CO and / or H are generated simultaneously 2 ;

[0013] The dual-effect reduction and synergistic solidification heavy metal module receives the conditioned gas from the flue gasification sludge conditioning module and is used to catalyze the CO and / or H in the conditioned gas. 2 The sulfur oxides and nitrogen oxides in the conditioning gas are subjected to a reduction reaction to obtain nitrogen and sulfur element, and at the same time, the sulfur element reacts with the heavy metals in the conditioning gas to produce sulfides.

[0014] In a third aspect, an application of the above method or system in treating urban solid waste or carbon-containing industrial solid waste is provided, wherein the urban solid waste or carbon-containing industrial solid waste replaces the sludge in the method or system.

[0015] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0016] The present invention realizes the conditioning of flue gas components (deoxidation + providing reducing agent) by gasifying sulfur-containing flue gas sludge, creates a favorable reaction atmosphere for catalytic reduction, constructs a dual-effect catalyst to realize the dual-effect catalytic reduction of sulfur and nitrate, and the product sulfur cooperates with the solidification of heavy metals released by sludge gasification, which can effectively prevent the discharge of heavy metals, thereby realizing the multi-pollutant (SO 2 、NO X , CO and volatile heavy metals), optimize the resource utilization of metallurgical sulfur-containing flue gas or the coordinated disposal of sludge in cement kilns, innovate and improve the existing technical approaches for high-value utilization of metallurgical sulfur-containing flue gas and industrial by-product gypsum, and have important research significance and application prospects for waste treatment or coordinated disposal to achieve resource utilization of solid waste.

[0017] The method of the present invention is suitable for comprehensive utilization of bulk solid waste, heavy metal treatment and reduction of SO 2 It can not only alleviate the shortage of sulfur resources in my country and realize resource-based desulfurization, but also reasonably dispose of urban solid waste such as sludge, so that the volatile heavy metals analyzed can be processed and secondary pollution can be avoided.
