Summary of the Invention

[0005] 1. Problems to be Solved

[0006] Aiming at the problem that it is difficult to utilize valuable elements in existing waste denitrification catalysts, the present invention provides a method for preparing ferro-titanium alloy by using waste vanadium-tungsten-titanium catalyst. By adopting the technical scheme of the present invention, the valuable elements in waste denitrification catalysts can be fully utilized to produce ferro-titanium alloy containing vanadium and tungsten elements.

[0007] 2. Technical Scheme

[0008] In order to solve the above problems, the technical scheme adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0009] A method for preparing ferrotitanium alloy by using waste vanadium-tungsten-titanium catalyst according to the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0010] Step 1: Preparation of alloy slag

[0011] (1) Mechanically separate the catalyst main body and the blockage in the pores. Then, initially crush the waste catalyst, and then perform crushing and grinding on the waste catalyst to grind it into particles with a diameter less than 74 μm; grind the blockage into particles with a diameter less than 150 μm.

[0012] (2) Prepare a flux by configuring different component sodium salts and calcium oxide in a certain proportion;

[0013] (3) Mix and heat the catalyst powder, blockage powder, and flux to form alloy slag;

[0014] Step 2: Preparation of composite reducing agent

[0015] (1) Crush aluminum block particles and grind them with steel balls to obtain electrostatic aluminum powder with appropriate size;

[0016] (2) Mix the electrostatic aluminum powder and activated carbon powder, and make the activated carbon powder adsorb on the surface of the aluminum powder to form a composite reducing agent; this composite reducing agent combines carbothermal reduction and aluminothermal reduction to realize the utilization of vanadium, tungsten, and titanium elements in the waste catalyst; in addition, this composite reducing agent is a double-layer reducing agent, controlling the sequence of occurrence of carbothermal reduction and aluminothermal reduction, realizing the simultaneous reduction of vanadium and tungsten by carbon and titanium by aluminum, and also reducing the production cost of the reducing agent.

[0017] Step 3: Thermal reduction

[0018] After pouring the alloy slag into molten steel, add the composite reducing agent to the alloy slag for thermal reduction;

[0019] Step 4: Cooling and slag skimming

[0020] After the reaction ends, cool the molten steel, and remove the remaining slag on the upper surface of the molten steel to obtain ferrotitanium alloy containing vanadium and tungsten elements.

[0021] Among them, in Step 1, the content of V2O5 in the catalyst is 0.5 - 2.5%, the content of WO3 is 1 - 5%, the content of TiO2 is 70 - 88%, and the content of SiO2 is 3 - 10%; the content of SiO2 in the blockage is 45 - 70%, and the content of CaO is 3 - 10%;

[0022] The flux is composed of CaO, NaCl, and Na₂CO₃. Among them, CaO can regulate the basicity of the molten slag, improve the fluidity of the molten slag and the reduction rates of vanadium oxide, tungsten oxide, and titanium oxide. The molten salts of Na₂CO₃ and NaCl react with oxides such as vanadium pentoxide, tungsten oxide, and titanium dioxide to be converted into sodium salts with low melting points, thereby reducing the melting point of the metallurgical molten slag. Then, through reduction reactions occurring in the slag phase, the vanadium, tungsten, and titanium components in the waste catalyst are reduced and enter the molten steel, thus obtaining a ferrotitanium alloy containing vanadium and tungsten elements.

[0023] Preferably, in the flux, the content of CaO is 65 - 75%, the content of NaCl is 5 - 20%, and the content of Na₂CO₃ is 5 - 20%.

[0024] Preferably, the mass ratio of the catalyst powder, the plugging powder, and the flux is 2:1:1, controlling the basicity of the alloy molten slag within a suitable range to ensure the low melting point of the alloy molten slag, preventing the melting point of the alloy molten slag from rising significantly, the fluidity from becoming poor, resulting in an increase in process energy consumption, affecting the entry of valuable elements in the waste catalyst into the alloy, and affecting the contents of V / W / Ti elements in the alloy.

[0025] Preferably, the heating temperature of the alloy molten slag is 100 °C higher than the melting point temperature of the metallurgical slag.

[0026] Preferably, in step two, the grinding time of the steel beads is greater than 45 min, the diameter of the aluminum particles after grinding is 150 - 300 μm, the diameter of the activated carbon powder particles is less than 45 μm, and the mass ratio of the activated carbon powder to the aluminum powder is 1:20 - 1:15.

[0029] 3. Beneficial effects

[0030] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0031] (1) A method for preparing ferro-titanium alloy using waste vanadium-tungsten-titanium catalyst of the present invention separates the waste catalyst to obtain the catalyst and the blockage, and then obtains the ferro-titanium alloy containing vanadium and tungsten elements through thermal reduction. It can not only dispose of waste denitration catalyst, but also make full use of valuable elements in the waste denitration catalyst. In addition, in the present invention, both the catalyst and the blockage are fully utilized, achieving the full utilization of waste catalyst without considering the subsequent treatment of the blockage in the waste catalyst;

[0032] (2) A method for preparing ferro-titanium alloy using waste vanadium-tungsten-titanium catalyst of the present invention, the flux is composed of CaO, NaCl, and NaCO3. Among them, CaO can regulate the basicity of the molten slag, improve the fluidity of the molten slag and the reduction rate of vanadium oxide, tungsten oxide and titanium oxide. The molten salts of Na2CO3 and NaCl react with oxides such as vanadium pentoxide, tungsten oxide, and titanium dioxide to be converted into low-melting sodium salts, thereby reducing the melting point of the metallurgical molten slag and further promoting the reduction of vanadium, tungsten and titanium elements;

[0033] (3) A method for preparing ferro-titanium alloy using waste vanadium-tungsten-titanium catalyst of the present invention. While refining the aluminum block particles by grinding aluminum powder with steel beads, due to the frictional collision between iron and aluminum, the surface of the aluminum powder becomes electrostatic. After contacting with activated carbon powder, carbon powder is adsorbed on the surface of the aluminum powder particles to form a double-layer composite reducing agent. Then, through the combination of carbothermal reduction and aluminothermic reduction, the utilization of vanadium, tungsten and titanium elements in the waste catalyst is realized. In addition, the composite reducing agent is a double-layer reducing agent, which controls the sequence of carbothermal reduction and aluminothermic reduction, realizes the reduction of vanadium and tungsten by carbon and the reduction of titanium by aluminum, and also reduces the production cost of the reducing agent.

[0037] Example 1

[0038] As Figure 1 shown, a method for preparing ferro-titanium alloy using waste vanadium-tungsten-titanium catalyst of this embodiment is as follows:

[0039] Step 1: Treatment of waste catalyst and preparation of alloy molten slag

Then, initially crush the waste catalyst using a jaw crusher, and then perform crushing and grinding on the waste catalyst to grind it into particles with a diameter less than 74 μm (200 mesh), and grind the blockage into particles with a diameter less than 150 μm (100 mesh).

Load the mixture into a high-temperature-resistant crucible, and heat the mixed slag using a programmed temperature rise in a vertical tube furnace. The temperature when the slag melts is recorded as the melting point. At the same time, use an RTW-10 melt physical property measuring instrument (rotation method) to measure the viscosity of the slag, and calculate the binary basicity of the slag. The formula for calculating the binary basicity is as follows:

[0043] R = w(CaO) / w(SiO2)

[0044] In the formula, w(CaO) is the mass fraction of CaO in the sample, and w(SiO2) is the mass fraction of SiO2 in the sample.

Add the alloy slag to the molten steel to melt it. After the slag is completely melted, add the composite reducing agent to the alloy slag for thermal reduction, and the reduction time is 30 minutes.

[0050] Step 4: Cooling and slag skimming

[0051] After the reaction, use a CW-5300 water cooler at 3 °C for 5 minutes -1Cool the molten steel at a cooling rate. When the temperature of the molten steel reaches 1500 °C, remove the slag on the upper surface of the molten steel to obtain ferro-titanium alloy. After cooling, take samples for retention. The slag removal and cooling processes are carried out under the protection of argon gas, and the gas flow rate is 2 L / min.

[0052] Example 2

[0053] As Figure 1 shown, a method for preparing ferro-titanium alloy by using waste vanadium-tungsten-titanium catalyst in this example is as follows:

[0054] Step 1. Waste catalyst treatment and alloy slag preparation

The temperature when the slag melts is recorded as the melting point. At the same time, use an RTW-10 melt physical property measuring instrument (rotation method) to measure the viscosity of the slag, and calculate the binary basicity of the slag. The binary basicity calculation formula is as follows:

[0058] R = w(CaO) / w(SiO2)

[0059] In the formula, w(CaO) is the mass fraction of CaO in the sample, and w(SiO2) is the mass fraction of SiO2 in the sample.

[0060] Step 2. Preparation of composite reducing agent

Add the alloy slag into the molten steel to melt it. After the slag is completely melted, add the composite reducing agent to the alloy slag for thermal reduction, and the reduction time is 30 min.

[0065] Step 4: Cooling and slag skimming

[0066] After the reaction ends, use a CW-5300 water cooler to cool the molten steel at a cooling rate of 4 °C every 5 min -1 until the molten steel temperature reaches 1530 °C. Skim the slag on the upper surface of the molten steel to obtain ferrotitanium alloy. After cooling, take samples for retention. The slag skimming and cooling processes are both carried out under the protection of argon gas, and the gas flow rate is 2 L / min.

[0067] Example 3

[0068] As Figure 1 shown, a method for preparing ferrotitanium alloy using waste vanadium-tungsten-titanium catalyst in this example is as follows:

[0069] Step 1: Treatment of waste catalyst and preparation of alloy slag

[0070] (1) Pretreatment of waste catalyst: Mechanically separate the catalyst main body and the blockage in the pores. Then, use a jaw crusher to conduct primary crushing treatment on the waste catalyst, and then conduct crushing and grinding treatment on the waste catalyst to grind it into particles with a diameter less than 74 μm (200 mesh), and grind the blockage into particles with a diameter less than 150 μm (100 mesh).

[0072] (3) Use a high-strength mixer to mix the waste catalyst powder, blockage powder, and flux according to a mass ratio of 2:1:1. Load the mixture into a high-temperature resistant crucible, and use a vertical tubular heating furnace to heat the mixed slag with a programmed temperature rise. The temperature when the slag melts is recorded as the melting point. At the same time, use an RTW-10 melt physical property measuring instrument (rotation method) to measure the viscosity of the slag, and calculate the binary basicity of the slag. The binary basicity calculation formula is as follows:

[0073] R = w(CaO) / w(SiO2)

[0074] In the formula, w(CaO) is the mass fraction of CaO in the sample, and w(SiO2) is the mass fraction of SiO2 in the sample.

[0075] Step 2: Preparation of composite reducing agent

[0076] (1) Using aluminum particles with a diameter of 500 μm as raw materials, and using steel balls with a diameter of 10 mm, load them into a planetary ball mill with a diameter of 50 cm according to the mass ratio of steel balls to aluminum powder of 2:1 and grind for 45 minutes, then screen out the electrostatic aluminum powder with a particle diameter less than 300 μm;

[0077] (2) Mix the electrostatic aluminum powder and activated carbon powder with a particle diameter less than 45 μm according to a mass ratio of 18:1 to prepare a composite reducing agent.

[0078] Step 3: Thermal reduction

[0079] Heat and melt the ingot in a vertical tube furnace, control the temperature of the molten steel to 1650 °C, and the mass ratio of molten steel: alloy slag: composite reducing agent = 12:4:1. Add the alloy slag to the molten steel and melt it. After the slag is completely melted, add the composite reducing agent to the alloy slag for thermal reduction, and the reduction time is 30 minutes.

[0080] Step 4: Cooling and slag skimming

[0081] After the reaction is completed, use a CW-5300 water cooler to cool the molten steel at a cooling rate of 5 °C per 5 minutes -1 until the temperature of the molten steel reaches 1550 °C, then skim the slag on the upper surface of the molten steel to obtain ferrotitanium alloy.

[0092] Table 1. Properties of alloy slag and main components of ferrotitanium alloy for each example and comparative example

[0093]

[0094]

[0095] By analyzing the indexes in Table 1, it can be seen that:

[0096] (1) Comparing Comparative Example 1 with Example 1, no plugging powder was added to the alloy slag. The melting point of the alloy slag increased by 200 °C, the viscosity increased by 1.09 Pa·s, the basicity increased by 8.96, the content of Ti element in the ferrotitanium alloy decreased by 1.54%, the content of V element decreased by 0.06%, and the content of W element decreased by 0.12%;

[0097] (2) Comparing Comparative Example 2 with Example 1, no CaO was added to the flux. The melting point of the alloy slag increased by 206 °C, the viscosity increased by 0.84 Pa·s, the basicity decreased by 0.93, the content of Ti element in the ferrotitanium alloy decreased by 2.94%, the content of V element decreased by 0.1%, and the content of W element decreased by 0.19%;

[0098] (3) Comparing Comparative Example 3 with Example 1, no NaCl and Na2CO3 were added to the flux. The melting point of the alloy slag increased by 225 °C, the viscosity increased by 0.94 Pa·s, the content of Ti element in the ferrotitanium alloy decreased by 1.63%, the content of V element decreased by 0.1%, and the content of W element decreased by 0.19%;

[0099] (4) Comparing Comparative Example 4 with Example 1, no aluminum powder was added to the composite reducing agent. Since TiO2 belongs to a refractory reducible phase and cannot be reduced by carbothermal reduction, the alloy made does not contain Ti;

[0100] (5) Comparing Comparative Example 5 with Example 1, no carbon powder was added to the composite reducing agent. The Ti content in the alloy made decreased by 0.63%.

[0101] The applicant's research has found that the basicity of alloy slag is extremely important for the carbothermal reduction and aluminothermic reduction processes. By using CaO and SiO2 (the plug contains a large amount of SiO2, which is the main component of alloy slag) to prepare the slag, within an appropriate range, the viscosity of the alloy slag can be reduced and the fluidity of the alloy slag can be enhanced, thereby optimizing the kinetic conditions of the reduction reaction. The applicant has proven through a large number of experiments that when the basicity of the alloy slag is 0.8 - 1.1, the fluidity of the alloy slag is the best. When the SiO2 content is relatively high, a spatial network structure composed of silicon dioxide will form in the slag. Each particle in the network structure is restricted by ionic bond forces and cannot move freely. When a certain amount of CaO is added, Ca 2+ and O 2- will react with SiO2 to break the network structure and improve the fluidity of the metallurgical slag. However, when the CaO content is too high, CaO, as a high-melting-point substance, will form precipitates in the slag, reducing the fluidity of the metallurgical slag. Therefore, in the present invention, by adding CaO to the flux, the basicity of the alloy slag is adjusted to optimize the fluidity of the slag and the mass transfer conditions between vanadium pentoxide, tungsten oxide, and titanium dioxide and the reducing agent in the slag. By adding NaCl and Na2CO3 to the flux, the purpose is to react the molten salts of Na2CO3 and NaCl with oxides such as vanadium pentoxide, tungsten oxide, and titanium dioxide to convert them into low-melting-point sodium salts, prepare a low-melting-point alloy slag, and through the reduction reaction occurring in the slag phase, reduce the vanadium, tungsten, and titanium components in the waste catalyst into the molten steel, thereby obtaining a ferrotitanium alloy containing vanadium and tungsten elements.

[0102] In the present invention, waste catalysts are used as raw materials for producing ferrotitanium alloy. The content of titanium dioxide as a carrier can reach more than 70%, and the contents of vanadium pentoxide and tungsten oxide can reach about 5%. When using a reducing agent to reduce the valuable metal oxides in the waste catalyst, carbon can reduce vanadium pentoxide and tungsten oxide. The initial temperature for the reduction of vanadium pentoxide and carbon is 1103.7 °C, and the initial temperature for the reduction of tungsten oxide and carbon is 697.4 °C. Titanium dioxide does not react with carbon below 1800 °C. When aluminum is selected as the reducing agent, vanadium pentoxide, tungsten oxide, and titanium dioxide can spontaneously undergo reduction reactions at room temperature to form vanadium, tungsten, and titanium. Based on the above thermodynamic analysis, the applicant uses steel balls to grind aluminum powder, causing electrostatic effects on the surface of the aluminum powder. After contacting with fine carbon powder, the carbon powder is adsorbed on the surface of the aluminum powder particles by electrostatic forces to form a composite reducing agent. After the composite reducing agent enters the alloy slag, the carbon on the surface first reduces the vanadium and tungsten in the catalyst into elemental forms. After the aluminum core of the composite reducing agent contacts the alloy slag, it further reduces titanium dioxide. Using the composite reducing agent fully considers the reduction properties of vanadium, tungsten, and titanium elements in the waste catalyst. The external carbon powder can reduce the amount of the reducing agent aluminum, reducing the production cost.

[0103] It should be noted that in the above experiments, the waste catalyst is the waste generated in the SCR denitration system of coal-fired power plant flue gas. The mass percentage composition thereof is: TiO2: 87.27%, WO3: 4.66%, SiO2: 3.64%, CaO: 1.32%, Al2O3: 0.87%, V2O5: 0.52%, Sx: 0.43%, P: 0.07%, Na: 0.09%, K: 0.07%, and the rest are inevitable impurities; the plugging powder is the solid particulate matter deposited in the SCR denitration catalyst of coal-fired power plant flue gas. The mass percentage composition thereof is: SiO2: 67.64%, Al2O3: 15.41%, Sx: 4.41%, Fe2O3: 4.25%, CaO: 3.80%, K2O: 1.87%, TiO2: 1.19%, Na2O: 0.91%, MgO: 0.67%, P: 0.07%, and the rest are inevitable impurities;

[0104] In addition, the CaO, NaCl and Na2CO3 are all analytical pure reagents with a substance purity > 99%, and the rest are inevitable impurities; the aluminum particles are metallic aluminum with a purity > 99%, and the rest are inevitable impurities; the main components and mass fractions of the activated carbon are: C: 76.59, CaO: 1.14%, SiO2: 11.96%, Al2O3: 6.03%, K: 0.27%, Na: 0.16%, and the rest are inevitable impurities; the main components and mass fractions of the ingot are: C: 0.15%, Mn: 0.52%, Si: 0.12%, S: 0.01%, P: 0.01%, Fe: 99.0%, and the rest are inevitable impurities.
