Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of steel slag recycling, and more particularly to a method for the resource utilization of steel slag and carbon dioxide. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, there is no ideal solution for the disposal or resource utilization of steel slag generated from steel manufacturing.

[0003] Currently, the main method for reusing steel slag from steel manufacturing is to grind the tailings from magnetic separation and use it as a concrete admixture. However, the amount of steel slag used as an admixture is less than 10% of the total concrete volume, resulting in extremely low utilization. Furthermore, the saturation of the construction market and the limited consumption of concrete in recent years have restricted the large-scale application of steel slag admixture technology in concrete.

[0004] In recent years, the production practice of using steel slag for mine backfilling has been carried out one after another, but this utilization method is limited by underground mining and it is difficult to solve the problem of steel slag utilization from a global perspective.

[0005] Some steel slag recycling processes use solution-induced methods, but these require high-cost organic solutions such as amino acids. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop universal resource utilization technologies for steel slag.

[0006] For example, Chinese patent CN116040973A discloses a method for preparing carbonized modified steel slag with improved hydration activity, as well as modified steel slag and active admixtures for cement-based cementitious materials. In this method, a large amount of high-cost amino acids are used to induce modification. The reaction process occurs between active calcium oxide, magnesium oxide and CO2 gas in the steel slag, which cannot achieve deep carbonization of the steel slag. The utilization rate of steel slag is low, and the proportion of modified steel slag in cementitious materials is mostly around 10%.

[0007] In order to make better use of steel slag, Chinese patent CN219217860U discloses a steel slag sulfidation and carbonization device. Although the device can adsorb carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide at the same time using steel slag as raw material, the carbonization still cannot achieve deep carbonization of steel slag, resulting in low utilization rate of steel slag. Moreover, the purpose is to improve the mechanical strength of recycled aggregate from steel slag, which obviously results in low utilization rate of steel slag.

[0008] Although Chinese patent CN114538806A discloses a hydrated carbonization composite hardening cementitious material based on steel slag and its preparation method, the utilization rate of steel slag in the prepared hydrated carbonization composite hardening cementitious material is only about 42%. It requires magnetic iron separation of the raw materials and uses relatively expensive quicklime. The utilization rate of steel slag is obviously not very high, and it cannot fully, rationally and effectively utilize the steel slag and the materials in the preparation process.

[0009] Chinese patent CN115448628A discloses a carbonized porous steel slag aggregate and its preparation method. The aggregate consists of 45-68% steel slag powder, 15-30% rapid-hardening sulfur-alumina cement, 15-20% carbide slag, and 2-5% paraffin powder. The preparation process requires heating, granulation, and dewaxing, and the curing and carbonization times are also relatively long. Furthermore, the steel slag powder requires special treatment. The carbonization depth is increased by adding solid waste carbide slag and dewaxing, which increases the time and number of process steps. This is especially evident in the secondary carbonization reaction, which also increases production costs and results in low production efficiency.

[0010] Chinese patent CN115340306A discloses a method for preparing carbonized steel slag by capturing carbon dioxide using hypergravity. This method requires operating a high-cost hypergravity rotating packed bed for the carbonization process. However, the utilization rate of the prepared carbonized steel slag powder in cement products is only up to 30%, indicating a low utilization rate. Furthermore, the obtained solid carbonized steel slag requires drying and grinding, which increases production costs. The use of a hypergravity field further increases the cost and makes it unsuitable for industrial production.

[0011] Chinese patent CN113955999A discloses a retro brick prepared based on steel slag carbonization and its preparation method. It uses steel slag in the preparation of retro bricks. However, according to calculations, the proportion of dry frying in the raw materials is about 37-47%, which is obviously not high and does not achieve the technical effect of overall comprehensive utilization. Moreover, the carbonization treatment needs to be combined with the hydration treatment of fly ash, which prolongs the process time. It also needs to consider the traditional carbonization pressure, which makes the operation difficult and inefficient. Summary of the Invention

[0012] The technical problem to be solved by this invention is that current steel slag recycling technologies have technical defects such as high cost, low utilization rate, complex preparation process, high operation difficulty, long process and low efficiency. Moreover, most carbonization deepening methods adopt the method of adding materials and increasing production costs, which cannot achieve the overall comprehensive utilization of steel slag and are not suitable for industrial production.

[0021] Preferably, the carbonate-containing inorganic salt solution in S2 includes at least one of sodium carbonate, lithium carbonate, potassium carbonate, and carbonate-containing industrial waste liquid, and the solid concentration of the steel slag slurry is 100-865 g / L.

[0022] Preferably, the inorganic salt solution containing carbonate in S2 is an industrial waste liquid containing 2.3-56 g / L of carbonate, and the solid concentration of the steel slag slurry is 300-500 g / L.

[0023] Preferably, the carbonate-containing inorganic salt solution in S2 is an industrial waste liquid containing 33.6-39.2 g / L of carbonate. Alkali metal carbonates act as inducing agents to enhance the reaction between steel slag slurry and CO2 under the action of an electric field. The carbonate is provided by both steel slag and alkali metal carbonates. During the preparation process, the amount of alkali metal carbonate added is determined by measuring the mass dispersion of carbonates in the slurry.

[0024] Preferably, the process parameters of the distributed electric field in reactor S3 are set such that the current density flowing through the slurry cross-section is 1.21-555 A / m. 2 The volume percentage of CO2 gas introduced is 8.9-99.6%.

[0025] Preferably, the process parameters of the distributed electric field in reactor S3 are set such that the current density flowing through the slurry cross-section is 5-350 A / m. 2 The CO2 gas is obtained by simultaneously reducing CO2 emissions from CO2-rich gas enriched from flue gas, with CO2 accounting for 30-99.6% of the gas by volume.

[0026] Preferably, under the influence of the distributed electric field in reactor S3, carbonate ions in the solution move directionally, increasing the probability of their interaction with active calcium oxide and magnesium oxide in the particles; however, the electric field strength exceeds 350 A / m. 2 The electrolysis reaction is intense, consuming carbonate ions in the solution.

[0027] Preferably, the stirring in S3 includes mechanical stirring, electromagnetic stirring, or gas stirring.

[0031] Preferably, the carbide steel slag in S4 meets the Class II sand requirements of "Construction Sand" (GB / T 14684); the calcium concentrate and magnesium concentrate are calcite and magnesite, respectively, with calcite having a CaO content of 53.96-55.25% and a calcite content of 90.75-93% (total carbon content of 10.89-11.16%); and magnesite having an MgO content of 52.23-55.27% and a magnesite content of 87.06-92.11%.

[0032] Technical principle of this invention:

[0033] This invention provides a method for the resource utilization of steel slag and carbon dioxide. First, the steel slag is crushed. CO2 gas is introduced into the steel slag slurry. An inorganic salt solution is used as an inducer to enhance the reaction between the steel slag slurry and CO2 under the action of an electric field, and the slurry is stirred. An electric field is distributed in the container holding the inorganic salt solution and the steel, and current flows through the cross-section of the slurry. After carbonization, the residue is separated from the inorganic salt solution through sedimentation, coagulation, and filtration. Coarse-grained carbonized steel slag is screened out for use as manufactured sand, while fine sludge is used to separate calcite and magnesite. The inorganic salt solution is recycled.

[0034] In this invention, an inorganic salt solution containing carbonate ions is used as the inducing medium to induce indirect carbonation. Indirect carbonation occurs in the presence of CO3 in activated calcium oxide, magnesium oxide, and an inorganic salt solution containing carbonate ions. 2- In between, CO2 gas introduced into an inorganic salt solution containing carbonate reacts with the solution to regenerate CO3. 2- Carbonization efficiency is significantly improved, and steel slag can be comprehensively utilized.

[0035] The above technical solution has at least the following advantages compared with the existing technology:

[0036] The above-mentioned solution proposes a method for the resource utilization of steel slag and carbon dioxide, which can solve the technical defects of existing steel slag recycling technologies, such as high cost, low utilization rate, complex preparation process, high operation difficulty, long process and low efficiency, so that steel slag can achieve resource utilization of all components.

[0037] This invention enhances the reaction between traditional steel slag slurry and CO2 under the action of an electric field by using an inorganic salt solution containing carbonate ions as an inducer. This transforms the direct carbonization of steel slag with CO2 into indirect carbonization, effectively strengthening not only the carbonization depth of the steel slag but also significantly enhancing its stability and activity. This solves the technical problem of poor stability of steel slag particles and the inability of the product to be directly used as manufactured sand.

[0038] The present invention provides a method for reusing steel slag that effectively utilizes both the prepared carbide steel slag precipitate and inorganic salt solution. The amount of steel slag that can be disposed of is higher than that used in the production of concrete, cement, and antique bricks. Moreover, the process is not complicated, easy to operate, has low production costs, and a short process, which is conducive to large-scale production.

[0039] In summary, compared with other traditional methods, the method of this invention innovates a method to enhance the carbonization depth. The product and inorganic salt solution obtained by the indirect carbonization method can be efficiently utilized, with a wide range of applications. The process is simple, and the utilization method is low-cost and highly efficient, which is conducive to large-scale industrial production and widespread use. Attached Figure Description

[0116] This invention enhances the reaction between traditional steel slag slurry and CO2 under the action of an electric field by using an inorganic salt solution containing carbonate ions as an inducer. This transforms the direct carbonization of steel slag with CO2 into indirect carbonization, effectively strengthening not only the carbonization depth of the steel slag but also significantly enhancing its stability and activity.

The product and inorganic salt solution obtained by the indirect carbonization method can be efficiently utilized, with a wide range of applications. The process is simple, and the utilization method is low-cost and highly efficient, which is conducive to large-scale industrial production and widespread use.
