Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of metallurgical technology, and in particular relates to a method for improving the carbon fixation rate of AOD stainless steel slag. Background Technology
[0002] Stainless steel slag is a solid waste generated during the stainless steel smelting process, and its main chemical components are CaO, SiO2, Al2O3, and MgO. Stainless steel slag includes AOD (Alkali Oxide) stainless steel slag and electric furnace stainless steel slag. AOD stainless steel slag is characterized by small particle size, large specific surface area, and high calcium content, with a calcium oxide content exceeding 50%, classifying it as a high-alkalinity steel slag. These characteristics indicate that the theoretical carbon fixation capacity of AOD stainless steel slag is higher than that of ordinary steel slag. However, current technologies for treating AOD stainless steel slag result in a carbon fixation rate of only about 0.7% to 1.6%, leading to a low carbon fixation rate and severely impacting carbon emission reduction levels. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To address some or all of the technical problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a method for improving the carbon fixation rate of AOD stainless steel slag.
[0004] The method of the present invention for improving the carbon fixation rate of AOD stainless steel slag includes the following steps:
[0005] S1. Slag Removal: Stainless steel slag is removed from the AOD furnace. The slag is poured into the slag pot and the pot lid is closed.
[0006] S2. Natural cooling: The AOD stainless steel slag in the slag pot is cooled naturally;
[0007] S3, Carbonation reaction: Open the spray valve on the slag pot to spray water on the cooled AOD stainless steel slag, and at the same time open the flue gas valve at the bottom of the slag pot to introduce CO2 flue gas, so that the AOD stainless steel slag and CO2 flue gas can undergo an acidification reaction.
[0008] S4. Testing: After the acidification reaction is completed, a sample is taken from the slag pot and subjected to thermogravimetric analysis. The results show that the AOD stainless steel slag loses 4% to 12% of its weight in the 500℃ to 800℃ range, which is the carbon fixation rate of the AOD stainless steel slag of 4% to 12%.
[0009] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned method for improving the carbon fixation rate of AOD stainless steel slag, during the S1 slag discharge process, when the steel slag is poured into the slag pot, it is necessary to ensure that the steel slag is in a liquid high-temperature state.
[0010] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned method for improving the carbon fixation rate of AOD stainless steel slag, the AOD stainless steel slag is naturally cooled to 200±10℃ during the cooling process.
[0011] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned method for improving the carbon fixation rate of AOD stainless steel slag, the amount of water sprayed onto the cooled AOD stainless steel slag during the carbonation reaction is 10% to 30%.
[0012] Furthermore, in the above-mentioned method for improving the carbon fixation rate of AOD stainless steel slag, the CO2 content in the flue gas is ≥10% during the carbonation reaction process, and the carbonation reaction time is 1-12h.
[0013] The method for improving the carbon fixation rate of AOD stainless steel slag according to the present invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects:
[0014] This invention effectively improves the carbon fixation rate of AOD stainless steel slag. By using high-temperature AOD stainless steel slag for natural cooling, the f-CaO content in the slag can be reduced, and the performance of the steel slag can be effectively improved. At the same time, it can achieve the co-treatment of CO2-rich waste gas and steel slag within the steel plant, effectively improving the carbon emission reduction level. Detailed Implementation
