Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of resource utilization technology of calcium carbide furnace purification ash, specifically involving a method and system for preparing magnesium oxide and light calcium carbonate from calcium carbide purification ash residue. Background Technology
[0002] In the calcium carbide production process, the purification ash produced after the calcium carbide tail gas is incinerated in a fluidized bed furnace, resulting in gray spherical waste residue commonly known as purification ash. Currently, the common method for disposing of purification ash is to transport it off-site by truck and then landfill it. This not only occupies land and pollutes the environment during landfilling but also results in a significant waste of resources. The main components of this ash residue are magnesium oxide and calcium oxide, with magnesium oxide accounting for 30-50% by mass and calcium oxide accounting for 30-40% by mass. It can be used as a raw material for the production of magnesium oxide, thus turning waste into treasure and improving economic efficiency.
[0003] There are few research reports on the preparation of magnesium compounds from calcium carbide purification slag. The main process involves acid dissolution of the purification slag, followed by alkaline precipitation of the dissolved solution to prepare compounds such as magnesium hydroxide.
[0004] Patent (201811628620.4) discloses a system and method for producing magnesium hydroxide and light calcium carbonate from purified ash residue of a calcium carbide furnace. One method for producing magnesium hydroxide and light calcium carbonate from purified ash residue of a calcium carbide furnace includes the following steps: reacting acid (hydrochloric acid or nitric acid) with the purified ash residue; adding ammonia (ammonia gas or ammonia water, the same below) at 30–90°C to adjust the pH to 6–7; then adding an oxidant (hypochlorous acid, sodium hypochlorite, calcium hypochlorite); filtering to obtain a first mother liquor and waste residue; continuing to add ammonia to the first mother liquor at 30–90°C; filtering to obtain a second mother liquor and magnesium hydroxide product; adding a carbon source (CO2 or ammonium bicarbonate) to the second mother liquor at 30–90°C; filtering to obtain a third mother liquor and light calcium carbonate product; after distilling ammonia and crystallizing the third mother liquor, filtering and separating to obtain a fourth mother liquor and ammonium chloride product; the fourth mother liquor is returned to the acid dissolution step for recycling.
[0005] Patent (201811620503.3) discloses a method for preparing calcium sulfate and magnesium hydroxide from purified ash residue of a calcium carbide furnace. The method involves dissolving the purified ash residue in acid (hydrochloric acid or nitric acid) to obtain a mother liquor containing magnesium, calcium, manganese, and iron ions. The mother liquor is heated to 40–80°C, and an alkaline solution is added to adjust the pH to 6–7. Sodium hypochlorite or calcium hypochlorite is then added, and the reaction is carried out for 10–100 minutes. The residue is filtered and the filtrate is reserved. Sulfate is added to the filtrate, and the reaction is carried out for 1–3 hours. The mixture is then allowed to stand for 1–3 hours, filtered, and washed with water to obtain calcium sulfate, which is also reserved. The filtrate is then heated to 40–80°C, and an alkaline solution is added, and the reaction is carried out for 1–3 hours. The mixture is allowed to stand for 1–3 hours, filtered, and washed with water to obtain magnesium hydroxide, which is also reserved. Finally, the residue obtained after ammonia stripping and crystallization of the filtrate is added to the mother liquor.
[0006] It is evident that during the acid dissolution process, impurities such as manganese ions, iron ions, and aluminum ions enter the solution and must be removed through a purification process; at the same time, a large amount of acid and ammonia water or ammonia gas are consumed.

It makes full use of the MgO and CaO components to prepare high value-added products, which has good economic benefits. In this invention, by controlling the pH value of the leaching solution, the coloring elements such as Fe, Ti, and Mn in the raw materials are basically not dissolved, which can directly eliminate the impurity removal step, simplify the process, reduce equipment investment, and facilitate industrialization.
[0034] Furthermore, the present invention uses a mixed solution of ammonium acetate and acetic acid and ammonium nitrate and sulfuric acid as the dissolving medium. The leaching medium solution can be recycled in the process, which greatly reduces the consumption of raw materials and eliminates wastewater and waste gas emissions.
[0035] Furthermore, the dicalcium silicate phase contained in the calcium carbide purification ash can be slowly dissolved in acidic solutions. Therefore, calcium impurities will be dissolved during the magnesium dissolution process, affecting the purity of magnesium oxide.

[0043] This invention discloses a method for preparing magnesium oxide and light calcium carbonate from calcium carbide purification ash slag. Using calcium carbide purification ash slag as raw material, a mixed solution of ammonium acetate and acetic acid is used as the dissolving agent to dissolve CaO from the raw material. After filtration, the solid phase is a magnesium-containing filter cake, and the liquid phase is a calcium-containing solution. Then, CO2 is introduced into the liquid phase to prepare light calcium carbonate, and the filtrate is an ammonium acetate solution, which is returned to the dissolution process for recycling. A mixed solution of ammonium nitrate and sulfuric acid is used to dissolve MgO from the magnesium-containing filter cake. After an ammonia stripping process, filtration is performed, resulting in a dicalcium silicate slag as the solid phase and a MgSO4 solution as the liquid phase. The MgSO4 solution undergoes an ammonia and CO2 absorption process, followed by filtration to obtain a magnesium carbonate filter cake and filtrate. The magnesium carbonate filter cake is calcined to prepare magnesium oxide, and the filtrate is an ammonium nitrate solution, which is returned to the dissolution process for recycling. This method fully utilizes the MgO and CaO components to prepare high-value-added products, and the process is simple and easy to implement, making it suitable for industrial promotion.
[0044] See Figure 2 The specific steps of the method for preparing magnesium oxide and light calcium carbonate using calcium carbide purification ash residue are as follows:

[0046] (2) CaO leaching process: Ammonium acetate and acetic acid solution are prepared into a mixed solution A with pH = 2-5 in calcium leaching agent mixing tank 2. The mass fraction of mixed solution A is 15-40%. The calcium carbide purification ash powder in step (1) is leached in a calcium dissolving reactor at a mass ratio of active calcium oxide to mixed solution A of 1:(8-20). The reaction temperature is 25-60℃ and the reaction time is 20-90min. After filtration through the first filter, the liquid phase is a calcium-containing alkaline solution and the solid phase is a magnesium-containing filter cake.

The mass fraction of mixed solution B is 10-25%. The magnesium-containing filter cake from step (2) is leached and ammonia stripping is carried out in a magnesium dissolving reactor at a mass ratio of active magnesium oxide to mixed solution A of 1:(15-30). The reaction temperature is 60-95℃ and the reaction time is 30-180min. After filtration through the third filter, the liquid phase is magnesium nitrate solution and the solid phase is used as acid leaching waste.

The results show that the contents of MgO, CaO, SiO2, and K2O are 29.89%, 47.89%, 10.81%, and 4.39%, respectively. The main phase composition of the purified ash is calculated to be: magnesium oxide 28.0%, calcium hydroxide 5.9%, dicalcium silicate 22.9%, calcium oxide 28.5%, and K2MgSiO 49.1%. According to the method described in claim 3, the mass fraction of active magnesium oxide in the purified ash is 28.01%; the mass fraction of active calcium oxide is 32.94%.
