Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of catalyst preparation, and in particular to a method for preparing a carbon dioxide absorption catalyst by utilizing fly ash, and a fly ash and coal ash pretreatment and preparation process and equipment. Background Art

[0002] The existing catalyst production method is to mix and stir the substrate and active material and then dry and calcine. The processing method is single, making it difficult to evenly load the active material on the surface of the substrate.

[0003] Fly ash is a kind of hazardous waste. After low-temperature thermal decomposition to remove dioxins and water washing to remove soluble inorganic salts, it becomes general solid waste. Now fly ash comes from the product of waste incineration power generation. It has no many uses and is generally backfilled. Generally, fly ash has a low moisture content, a light gray powder appearance, irregular particle size distribution, complex structure, and variable properties. It mostly exists in amorphous and polycrystalline polymer structures. The particle size is less than 80μm, and its surface is rough, with a large specific surface area and high porosity. The chemical composition of fly ash generally includes elements such as Ca, K, Na, Si, Al, Fe, O, and Cl. The main chemical components are CaO, SiO2, Al2O3, and Fe2O3. Due to the above properties, fly ash is generally difficult to be recycled, and common fly ash recycling methods such as brick making, paving, and aggregates are low-value methods. Since the fly ash composition is similar to the commonly used catalyst materials such as molecular sieves and zeolites, exploring fly ash preparation catalysts has also become an effective way to recycle fly ash and realize high-value utilization of fly ash.

In some embodiments, the material tank further includes a third pipeline 914, which is connected to the top of the tank body and the outlet 908 of the first pipeline 912, and is used to prevent excessive gas from entering the second pipeline 913, resulting in excessive pressure in the material tank body 910, which may cause safety hazards. A second venturi injector 907 is provided at the connection between the third pipeline 914 and the first pipeline 912. The first venturi injector 906 and the second venturi injector 907 are both used to inject materials into the outlet 908 of the first pipeline 912.

[0051] like Figure 2As shown, the reactor is a cylindrical structure that is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, so that the fly ash particles can fall after being purged. The positions where the first stream 11, the second stream 21, the third stream 31, and the fourth stream 41 enter the reactor 60 are respectively recorded as the first inlet 601, the second inlet 602, the third inlet 603, and the fourth inlet 604. The order of these positions from bottom to top is the first inlet 601, the second inlet 602, the fourth inlet 604, and the third inlet 603, and it also includes a material outlet 606 at the bottom and an exhaust gas outlet 605 at the top; in some embodiments, the material outlet 606 is connected to the sixth stream 52. In some embodiments, the first inlet 601, the second inlet 602, and the third inlet 603 are all connected to the sprayer in the reactor 60. In some embodiments, a dust removal grille 608 is also provided above the third inlet 603 to prevent the fly ash particles from being blown out from the exhaust gas outlet 605.

[0052] The preparation process of the catalyst comprises:

[0053] S1, pour the washed fly ash particles into the fourth material tank 40, and then pneumatically transport them to the reactor 60; in some embodiments, use nitrogen to pneumatically transport the fly ash particles to the reactor 60 through the fourth stream 41 to prevent the fly ash particles from reacting with water vapor, adjust the nitrogen amount through the fourth stream control valve 411, and control the volume flow of the fly ash particles through the fourth material tank outlet valve 401; detect the material level through the level meter of the reactor 60 to determine whether the catalyst fly ash particles in the catalyst preparation reactor 60 have reached the required amount, and the fly ash particles are used as the catalyst substrate. In some embodiments, the specific surface area of ​​the fly ash particles is 30-80m 2 / g.

[0054] S2, the ethanol solution of fluorosilicic acid is stored in the first material tank 10, and the ethanol solution of fluorosilicic acid is pneumatically conveyed to the reactor 60 at (450~500)℃, in which the mass fraction of fluorosilicic acid is 0.1%~1%, so that the ethanol solution of fluorosilicic acid is fully in contact with the fly ash particles; the fluorosilicic acid is used to dissolve the silicate in the fly ash, thereby achieving the purpose of removing impurities; the ethanol solution can more effectively promote the dispersion of the fluorosilicic acid at high temperature and control the corrosion rate of the fluorosilicic acid on the fly ash; the flow rate of the fluorosilicic acid can be controlled by the outlet valve 101 of the first material tank; in some embodiments, the ethanol solution of fluorosilicic acid is pneumatically conveyed to the reactor 60 through the first stream 11 using nitrogen, and the nitrogen flow rate is controlled by the first stream control valve 111 to prevent the fluorosilicic acid from reacting with water vapor and the ethanol from being oxidized by high-temperature air. The volume ratio of the nitrogen gas to the ethanol solution of fluosilicic acid is (10-15): 1. In some embodiments, the ethanol solution of fluosilicic acid further comprises a high temperature resistant water-soluble surfactant accounting for (1.5-3.5%) of the solution by mass, which can accelerate the dissolution of water-soluble lipids and the cavitation of fly ash by fluosilicic acid, dissolve the cavitation products and bring the cavitation products out through water vapor. The n-hexane is stored in the second material tank 20. While the ethanol solution of fluosilicic acid is passed into the reactor, the n-hexane is pneumatically transported to the reactor 60 at 150-200°C through the second stream 21. Further, the gas in the second stream 21 is water vapor, and the flow rate of the water vapor is controlled by the second stream control valve 211. The water vapor can be used to synergize with the surfactant to separate part of the organic matter. Further, the second material tank also comprises a high temperature resistant oil-soluble surfactant accounting for 1.5-3.5% of the mass fraction of n-hexane, which is used to promote the dissolution of oil-soluble substances in the n-hexane.

[0055] The volume ratio of the ethanol solution of fluorosilicic acid to n-hexane is 1:(0.3-3); the pressure in the reactor 60 is controlled at 0.12-0.18 MPa to accelerate the cavitation process.

[0056] In some embodiments, the fly ash particles formed in this step have a specific surface area of ​​280-350 m 2 / g is a normal condition. The reactor 60 further comprises a catalyst sampling port 610, from which fly ash particles are sampled to measure their specific surface area.

[0057] In some embodiments, fluorosilicic acid can be replaced with hydrofluoric acid.

[0058] S3, nitrogen at 400-500°C is introduced into the reactor for purging to remove ethanol, water vapor and n-hexane in the reactor. Further, the nitrogen is introduced from the first stream 11; oxygen at 400-500°C is introduced for purging, and water vapor is introduced to purge the fly ash particle bed to remove residual fluorosilicic acid and fluoride ions, and to purge the alcohol of the alkane; further, the oxygen is also introduced from the first stream 11, and water vapor is introduced from the second stream 21; finally, nitrogen at 400-500°C is introduced to replace oxygen and water vapor.

[0059] S4, lithium hydroxide solution is stored in the third material tank 30, wherein the mass of lithium hydroxide accounts for (10-20%) of the solution, and the solution is pneumatically transported to the reactor 60 through the third stream 31. In some embodiments, the gas in the third stream 31 is water vapor; the volume ratio of the water vapor to the lithium hydroxide solution is (10-30): 1, the water vapor is adjusted through the third stream control valve 311 to mix and transport with the lithium hydroxide solution, and the lithium hydroxide solution is adjusted through the third material tank outlet valve 301; at the same time, nitrogen is introduced into the sixth stream to purge the fly ash particles in the reactor 60, so that the fly ash particles and the lithium hydroxide solution can be more fully mixed, and the water vapor can more effectively penetrate the lithium ions into the deep gaps of the fly ash substrate. Among them, the mass ratio of lithium hydroxide to the fly ash particles obtained in S3 is 1: (1-5). In some embodiments, after the lithium hydroxide is mixed with the fly ash particles, the first stream 11 transports (500-800) ℃ nitrogen to the reactor 60 to dry the fly ash particles. Lithium hydroxide reacts with fly ash to produce lithium silicate. Lithium silicate can be used as a carbon dioxide absorption catalyst; the tail gas is discharged from the fifth stream 51 through the tail gas outlet 605. In some embodiments, during step S4, a sample is taken from the catalyst sampling port 610, and its specific surface area is measured. The surface area of ​​the fly ash particles obtained is (210-270) m 2 / g is normal.

[0060] S5, store the diesel in the third material tank 30, and pneumatically transport it to the reactor 60 through the third stream 31. In some embodiments, the gas in the third stream 31 is water vapor; the volume ratio of the water vapor to the diesel is (10~30):1. At the same time, nitrogen is introduced into the sixth stream 52 to purge the fly ash particles in the reactor 60 so that the fly ash particles and the diesel can be more fully mixed. Pressurized water vapor can more effectively penetrate the diesel into the deep gaps of the fly ash substrate. The ratio of the steam flow rate after the water vapor and diesel are mixed to the catalyst substrate is (1~3) m 3 / h: 1m 3In some embodiments, after the lithium hydroxide is mixed with the fly ash particles, the first stream 11 delivers 40-60°C nitrogen to the reactor 60 to dry the fly ash particles. In some embodiments, after the fly ash particles are dried with 40-60°C nitrogen, a sample is taken from the catalyst sampling port 610 to measure its specific surface area. The surface area of ​​the fly ash particles obtained is (210-270) m 2 / g is normal.

[0061] Then, the first stream 11 delivers (500-800)°C nitrogen to the reactor 60 to quickly fluidize, carbonize, and dry the fly ash particles with diesel attached, and the tail gas is discharged from the fifth stream 51 through the tail gas outlet 605. In some embodiments, after carbonization and drying are completed, a sample is taken from the catalyst sampling port 610 to measure its specific surface area, and the surface area of ​​the fly ash particles obtained is (210-240) m 2 / g is normal.

[0062] S6, prepare a n-hexane solution of amine in advance and place it in the third material tank 30, wherein the amine is selected from at least one of diethylenetriamine, triethylenetetramine, and tetraethylenepentamine, wherein the mass fraction of the amine is 5% to 15%. In some embodiments, the solution also contains a fast penetrant T with a mass fraction of 0.5% to 1.5%, and a fast fraction OT-75 with a mass fraction of 0.5% to 1.5%, so as to accelerate the penetration and dispersion of the amine into the fly ash particles. The third stream 31 transports the n-hexane solution of amine in the third material tank 30 to the reactor 60, and the volume ratio of the solution to the catalyst obtained in S5 is (5 to 20): 1. Then, nitrogen gas (50 to 70) ° C is transported into the reactor 60 through the first stream 11 to dry the fly ash particles until the n-hexane is completely exhausted. After drying, nitrogen gas (20 to 35 ° C) is introduced to slowly cool; at this time, the catalyst preparation is completed.

[0063] The following is a specific description through examples.

[0064] Example 1

[0065] S1, select fly ash particles with a particle size of 50-80 microns 5m 3 As catalyst substrate, surface area 30-80m 2 / g; place it in the fourth material tank 40 for storage, adjust the nitrogen amount by controlling the fourth stream control valve 411, deliver the catalyst substrate into the reactor 60 by nitrogen pneumatic conveying, and detect the material level by the level meter of the reactor 60 to determine whether the catalyst fly ash substrate of the catalyst preparation reactor 60 has reached the required amount.

[0066] S2, further remove the pollutants such as bio-based grease and petroleum-based grease brought into the catalyst substrate during the production process through gas phase dissolution and extraction, and increase the porosity of the fly ash particles, thereby increasing its surface area. The ethanol solution of 0.5% fluorosilicic acid by mass is stored in the first material tank 10, and the addition amount is controlled by the first material tank outlet valve 101. Nitrogen at 450-500°C is introduced into the first stream 11, and the first stream control valve 111 controls the nitrogen flow rate. 0.5% fluorosilicic acid and 1.5-3.5% ethanol solution of high temperature resistant water-soluble surfactant by mass fraction are mixed in the nitrogen gas phase in an amount of (10:1)~(15:1) and sent to the reactor 60. High nitrogen temperature can accelerate the reaction rate, decompose and gasify the reaction products. If the acid concentration is too high, the reaction will be too violent and produce larger voids. Low concentration of acid will corrode slowly. The surfactant itself does not need to be added too much. Too much will adhere to the surface of the substrate to form a package, but too little will not have a dispersing effect. The pressure at the top of the reactor 60 is adjusted to about 0.15MPa by the pressure control valve 511. At the same time, the second stream 21 is introduced with water vapor at 180°C and 0.15MPa, and the n-hexane containing 1.5-3.5% by mass of the high temperature resistant oil-soluble surfactant stored in the second material tank 20 is mixed and introduced into the reactor 60. The volume flow ratio of water vapor to n-hexane is 5:1; the ratio of the steam phase to the nitrogen phase is 1:(15-17). The volume flow rate of the gas phase and the steam phase is 15 times the volume of the catalyst substrate silica.

The mixed gas phase continuously contacts the fly ash through the catalyst substrate bed to perform a slow cavitation until the fly ash surface area is detected to reach 280-350m 2 / g meets the requirement. Further, after sampling through the catalyst sampling port, the specific surface area of ​​the catalyst is measured using a specific surface area tester.
