TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of oil sludge resource utilization, and particularly relates to a method for preparing iron-carbon pellets from cold rolling oil sludge and application. BACKGROUND
[0002] The rolling oil sludge is mainly the rolling oil sludge containing a large amount of iron-containing dust sludge generated in the recycling process of the emulsion cooling and lubricating the rolling mill and the steel strip, and has been listed in the National Hazardous Waste List (HW08). The main components of the oil sludge are water content of 27.62%, oil content (30.76%), TFe 63.32% (burning base), and calcium oxide, silicon dioxide residue (3.5%) and other mixtures. The emulsion wastewater is generally filtered through a magnetic filter, and the filter material iron powder and oil sludge are disposed of as hazardous waste, which is high in cost and cannot be disposed of in time in the factory, thus bringing great pressure on the environmental protection of the enterprise. At present, the cold rolling oil sludge is treated as hazardous waste in industry, and the main way is incineration disposal, residue landfill, blending with other solid substances or high-temperature carbonization of the sludge to achieve utilization. However, the above treatments all have negative effects on the environment: 1) During the incineration process of the oil sludge, dioxins or polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons may be generated, which pollute the atmosphere. Due to the problems of temperature, residence time and process control in the incineration process, a large amount of organic waste gas will be generated. Based on the de novo synthesis reaction, the oil sludge will inevitably generate the de novo formation reaction of dioxins and furans during the incineration disposal process, resulting in air pollution. 2) Oil sludge solidification landfill. The oil sludge solidification landfill has a large disposal amount, but based on the current scarcity of suitable land resources, the cost is high, and there may be seepage pollution to the soil or groundwater. 3) Resource waste: the cold rolling oil sludge contains a large amount of oil and iron resources, and simple disposal not only pollutes the environment but also causes resource waste. Based on the existing background, therefore, it is the key to solve the above problems to find a method for disposing the cold rolling oil sludge at low cost, without secondary pollution, and realizing the recovery of oil and the utilization of iron resources, so as to realize the comprehensive utilization of the cold rolling oil sludge. SUMMARY
[0003] The purpose of the present application is to solve the problems in the background art, and to provide an iron-carbon pellet preparation method and application for the comprehensive utilization of cold rolling oil sludge at low disposal cost and without secondary pollution.
[0004] The technical scheme of the present application is as follows: a method for preparing iron-carbon pellets from cold rolling oil sludge, characterized in that it comprises the following steps,
[0005] S1, stirring and mixing the dilute oil sludge generated in the cold rolling process with lime at a mass ratio of 1:(0.5-1) to obtain a mixture with a water content of <15%;
[0006] S2, mix the mixture obtained in step S1 with under-screen coke powder, steelmaking OG mud, rolled steel millscale, bentonite and polyacrylamide solution to obtain a mixed material, the mass percentage of each component in the mixed material being: 10-15% of the mixture, 10-20% of the under-screen coke powder, 30-45% of the steelmaking OG mud, 30-40% of the rolled steel millscale, 1-5% of the bentonite and 1-6% of the polyacrylamide solution, the mass percentage of each component being 100%;

[0008] S4, dry the cold-pressed pellets obtained in step S3 to obtain iron-carbon pellets.
[0009] Preferably, in step S2, the moisture content of the mixed material is controlled to be 6-10%.
[0010] Preferably, in step S2, the carbon content of the under-screen coke powder is 75-85% and the moisture content is <8%.
[0011] Preferably, in step S2, the TFe of the steelmaking OG mud is 50-60% and the moisture content is 12-15%.
[0012] Preferably, in step S2, the TFe of the rolled steel millscale is 70-80% and the moisture content is <5%.
[0013] Preferably, in step S2, the polyacrylamide solution is cationic, the molecular weight is >5 million and the mass concentration is 0.1-0.2%.
[0014] Preferably, in step S2, the bentonite is calcium bentonite, the water absorption rate (2h) is ≥200%, the blue absorption is ≥30 g / 100 g, the swelling index is ≥5 ml / 2 g, the screening rate (75 μm) is ≥95% and the moisture content is 9-13%.
[0015] Preferably, in step S3, the vibration screen is used after forming to obtain cold-pressed pellets with a particle size of 25-50 mm, the cold-pressed pellets being circular or elliptical.
[0016] Preferably, in step S4, the cold-pressed pellets are dried at 100-120°C, the drying time being 5-10 h, and the heat source can be selected to be 0.1-0.2 MPa residual steam.
[0017] Preferably, in step S4, the heat source in the drying chamber can be selected to be low-pressure saturated steam with a pressure of 0.1-0.2 MPa.
[0018] Preferably, in step S4, the obtained iron-carbon pellets satisfy green ball drop strength ≥ 6, dry ball compressive strength ≥ 2500N, and TFe > 40%.
[0019] In the above scheme, TFe is total iron content, carbon content, moisture content, and TFe are all in terms of weight percentage, and the steelmaking OG mud specifically refers to the sludge generated by the wet dust removal system (OG) of the converter gas of a steelmaking plant.
[0020] The application also provides an iron-carbon pellet prepared by any of the above methods for preparing iron-carbon pellets from cold rolling oil sludge. The iron-carbon pellet satisfies green ball drop strength ≥ 6, dry ball compressive strength ≥ 2500N, and TFe > 40%.
[0021] The application also provides an application of an iron-carbon pellet. The iron-carbon pellet is used for steelmaking coolant, torpedo iron-carbon pellet, or sintered pellet.
[0022] In the application, the mixing of the thin oil sludge and lime has the following effects: on the one hand, it is beneficial to the analysis of water in the oil sludge and the reaction with lime, thereby reducing the moisture content of the oil sludge; on the other hand, lime is also a binder, which has the effects of desulfurization and dephosphorization, and the control of the moisture content of the mixed material < 15% is to not only improve the binding capacity of the material, but also maintain a high strength after drying. The effects of the components in the mixed material are as follows: the undersize coke powder is to provide the carbon content required for the metallization rate, and too high or too low is not conducive to the completion of the metallization rate; the steelmaking OG mud is to provide the iron content required for the pellet, and part of the raw material is also beneficial to slag making; the rolling steel scale contains the highest iron content and is the main source of iron; the bentonite is mainly used as an inorganic binder, and the cationic polyacrylamide solution is used as an organic binder. The advantages of the combination of the components are to not only provide the iron content required for the pellet, but also to be beneficial to the pelletizing performance and improve the drop and compressive strength of the pellet.
[0023] The mixed material needs to be controlled to have a moisture content of 6-10%, which is to ensure the pelletizing performance of the green briquette, and the appropriate moisture can improve the capillary force between the materials, and also improve the drop and compressive strength of the briquette.
[0024] The application has the following beneficial effects:
[0025] 1. The resource utilization of waste oil sludge is realized. The cold rolling oil sludge contains iron and oil resources, and the mixing of the cold rolling oil sludge and other solid waste resources of a steel plant can not only recover the iron resource, but also fully utilize the oil in the oil sludge to replace the original fuel and reduce fuel consumption. At the same time, since the pellet is prepared from the oil sludge and other solid waste, the oil fume generated in the process of direct incineration of the oil sludge is reduced, and the pollution to the fan rotor and the environment is reduced. It is an effective resource utilization method, which has obvious environmental and economic benefits.
[0026] 2. The obtained iron-carbon pellets have a drop strength of ≥6 pellets, a dry pellet compressive strength of ≥2500N, and a ferrite content of greater than 40%. Therefore, the iron-carbon pellets have excellent properties of high drop strength and compressive strength, which can be used as a converter coolant to promote converter slag formation. They can also be used in torpedo ladles and blast furnace iron-carbon pellets, which not only meet the self-reduction requirements but also reduce smelting costs and realize the resource utilization of metallurgical solid waste.
