Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of flocculants, and particularly relates to a composite flocculant and a method for treating shield waste soil slurry. Background Art

[0002] Shield tunneling construction has the advantages of high tunneling efficiency and little impact on the surrounding environment, so it is widely used in subway construction projects. As an engineering auxiliary material, slurry is widely used in bored pile construction, shield tunneling construction and diaphragm wall construction. The slurry mainly plays the roles of protecting the wall, discharging slag, cleaning the hole and cooling. When problems such as increased viscosity and finer particles occur in the slurry, the slurry will be discarded. Due to the large output, high viscosity and difficult solid-liquid separation of the waste slurry, the disposal of the waste slurry has become a major problem in engineering construction. The generation of a large amount of waste slurry will not only cause waste of land area, but also may pollute the soil quality of the landfill. Therefore, the reduction treatment of waste slurry is a key step in resource treatment. The current common treatment methods include external transportation and landfill, mechanical pressure filtration, curing agent solidification treatment and flocculant precipitation dehydration. Even more, some directly discharge the waste slurry into rivers, which not only causes serious pollution, but also makes the water area silt up and the riverbed rise. External transportation and landfill is a treatment method with high cost but low treatment efficiency; although the efficiency of mechanical pressure filtration has been improved, the equipment operation cost is large and regular maintenance is required; the curing agent solidification treatment requires the soil to be treated to have a certain bearing capacity, otherwise it cannot be reused; the flocculation precipitation method can make the suspended particles in the slurry form larger flocs through the flocculant, and assist mechanical means to make the solid-liquid two phases easier to separate, which can reduce the discharge of waste slurry from the source and is a dehydration method that can be widely used in actual projects at present.

[0003] However, most of the current flocculants on the market have problems such as poor flocculation effect, slow flocculation speed and high cost. For example, Chinese Patent (CN109354141A) discloses a flocculant formula for treating shield waste slurry, which includes the following components: PAC with a purity of 30% and PAM with a molecular weight of 12 million. When the specific gravity of the waste slurry is 1.05 g / cm 3 ³, the dosage of PAC is 300 mg / L and the dosage of PAM is 45 mg / L. Although the formula of this patent screens out suitable flocculants and dosages according to the different specific gravities of the slurry to make the slurry undergo a flocculation reaction and concentration, its flocculation effect is limited and the flocculation speed is slow. Therefore, how to prepare a flocculant with good flocculation effect, fast flocculation speed, economic and environmental protection for shield slurry treatment is an urgent problem to be solved at present. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The main object of the present invention is to provide a composite flocculant and a method for treating shield waste soil slurry, aiming to solve the problems of poor flocculation effect and slow flocculation speed of existing flocculants.

[0014] The mass ratio of polyacrylamide to modified activated carbon is (3-6):(2-5).

[0015] Preferably, the preparation method of the modified activated carbon comprises the following steps:

[0016] The waste straw is crushed, screened, and then sodium hydroxide solution is added. After soaking for a period of time, it is carbonized at high temperature to obtain biochar. The biochar is washed, dried, ground, and screened to obtain activated carbon. Concentrated sulfuric acid is added to the activated carbon. After stirring, potassium permanganate is slowly added and continuously stirred. After reacting for a period of time, it is washed and dried to obtain oxidized activated carbon. Absolute ethanol is added to the oxidized activated carbon, and hydrochloric acid is added to adjust the pH value to 3-4. After stirring evenly, (3-mercaptopropyl)triethoxysilane and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide are slowly added dropwise, and heated to react to obtain modified activated carbon.

[0017] Preferably, the concentration of the sodium hydroxide solution is 1-2 mol / L, the temperature of the high-temperature carbonization is 650-850 °C, and the temperature of the heating reaction is 60-80 °C.

[0018] Preferably, the mass ratio of the activated carbon to potassium permanganate is 1:(2-4); the dosage ratio of the oxidized activated carbon, (3-mercaptopropyl)triethoxysilane, and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide is (6-10 g):(2-4 mL):(1-3 mL).

[0019] The present invention also provides a method for treating shield waste soil slurry. In the treatment project of shield waste soil slurry, the composite flocculant as described above is used.

[0020] Preferably, the method includes the following steps:

[0021] S1. Collect the waste soil slurry, let it stand for a period of time, and then filter it to obtain sand particles and the filtered slurry.

[0022] S2. Feed the filtered slurry in step S1 into a sedimentation tank, add a modified magnesium-iron flocculant, stir evenly, keep it warm and stand for 10-20 min, and then add modified chitosan, stir, and stand to obtain the preliminarily treated slurry; the sum of the masses of the modified magnesium-iron flocculant and the modified chitosan in the flocculant A accounts for 0.5%-5% of the slurry volume.

[0024] S4. Feed the slurry into a filter press for dehydration separation, and collect the separated clear liquid and cake.

[0025] S5. Use the sand particles in step S1 and the cake in step S4 as shield sand or for backfilling treatment; directly discharge the clear liquid in step 4.

[0026] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0027] (1) The composite flocculant provided by the present invention is prepared by compounding an improved magnesium-iron flocculant, modified chitosan, polyacrylamide, and modified activated carbon, and is added to shield mud at different times. By adopting the inorganic-organic compounding method, it can make up for the many deficiencies of single-type flocculants, give play to their respective flocculation advantages, and improve the treatment efficiency while reducing the treatment cost.

[0028] (2) The improved magnesium-iron flocculant provided by the present invention has a lower cost compared with the traditional polyferric sulfate, and can be adsorbed by the negatively charged colloids in the mud, reducing the absolute value of the zeta potential on the surface of the colloids. The repulsive potential energy in the mud decreases, the stability of the colloid particles decreases, and the probability of collision between them increases. Eventually, the colloid is destabilized and settles to be separated from water. The modified chitosan provided by the present invention is obtained by first epoxidizing chitosan and then undergoing a substitution reaction to obtain modified chitosan with quaternary ammonium groups and benzyl groups, making the flocculant have strong surface activity and hydrophobic association effects. At the same time, the quaternary ammonium groups enhance the electro-neutralization ability of the flocculant, adsorb the colloid particles on the surface of the flocculant, and neutralize the negative charges on the surface of the colloid, reducing the zeta potential value on the surface of the colloid and the electrostatic repulsion, further destabilizing the colloid. Eventually, under the action of adsorption and electro-neutralization, the colloid particles are coagulated and aggregated for removal. The modified activated carbon provided by the present invention is prepared from waste straw, which has a wide source and saves resources. After carbonizing the waste straw and then modifying it to introduce mercapto groups, on the one hand, it improves the adsorption bridging effect of the flocculant, and on the other hand, it can enhance the ability to adsorb heavy metals such as copper, lead, and chromium in water, making the treated water meet the discharge standard. At the same time, there is a hydrogen bond interaction between the modified chitosan and the modified activated carbon, enhancing the effect of the flocculant in removing suspended particles during the flocculation and sedimentation processes, so as to more efficiently remove the colloids in water.

[0029] (3) The improved magnesium-iron flocculant, modified chitosan, polyacrylamide, and modified activated carbon provided by the present invention can greatly improve the treatment effect and efficiency of wastewater and waste mud through the synergistic effects of flocculation-adsorption, charge neutralization, adsorption bridging, pore structure, and composite materials, etc.
