Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of waste regeneration, and in particular to an artificially sintered calcium fluoride auxiliary material, a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Calcium fluoride is widely used as a flux and desulfurizer in the steelmaking process. In the steelmaking process, calcium fluoride reduces the melting point of refractory materials, promotes slag flow, and separates slag and metal well, thereby enhancing the forgeability and tensile strength of the metal. This characteristic makes calcium fluoride an indispensable flux in the smelting process, and is widely used in steel smelting, ferroalloy production, ironmaking process and non-ferrous metal smelting. In addition, in the steelmaking process, molten iron often contains a large amount of sulfur. The addition of calcium fluoride can effectively remove sulfur from the molten iron, thereby improving the quality and purity of the steel. This is because calcium fluoride can react with sulfur in the molten iron to form calcium sulfide, thereby reducing the sulfur content, which is crucial for the production of high-quality steel. These applications of calcium fluoride not only improve smelting efficiency, but also promote the flow of metal and the separation of impurities, thereby improving the purity and quality of the product. Therefore, calcium fluoride plays a vital role in the metallurgical industry.

[0003] Fluorite is an important mineral, also known as fluorite, and is a common mineral. Fluorite is a fluorine-containing compound with strong fluoride ion activity, which can be widely used in metallurgy, chemical industry, building materials and other fields. In steelmaking production, fluorite is often used as a steelmaking flux to improve steelmaking efficiency and quality. As a steelmaking auxiliary material, its main function is to improve the efficiency and quality of steelmaking. The calcium fluoride component contained in fluorite can be used as a flux in the steelmaking furnace to stabilize and precipitate impurities and non-metallic substances in the slag, making the steelmaking process more stable and smooth. As a steelmaking flux, fluorite can promote the precipitation of impurities and non-metallic substances in the slag to prevent them from interfering with the steelmaking process. Specifically, fluorite can react with impurities and non-metallic substances in the slag in the form of fluoride to produce a precipitable fluoride precipitate, thereby stabilizing the impurities and non-metallic substances in the slag and controlling their content. In addition, fluorite can also reduce the steelmaking temperature and reduce the heat loss in the steelmaking process, thereby improving the efficiency of steelmaking. In the later stage of steelmaking, fluorite can also react with impurities in the residual slag, stabilize and precipitate it, thereby reducing waste and pollutants generated by steelmaking. When using fluorite as a steelmaking flux, attention should be paid to the stability of quality and the accuracy of the ratio to ensure its effect. At the same time, fluorite itself has a certain degree of corrosiveness, and attention should be paid to measures such as layered feeding and turning over during feeding to avoid corrosion of equipment such as furnace walls. As an important steelmaking auxiliary material, fluorite can improve steelmaking efficiency and quality and ensure the stability and smooth progress of the steelmaking process. Through the input of fluorite, steel mills can reduce production costs, improve processing efficiency, and promote the healthy development of the steel industry.

[0004] The photovoltaic industry produces a large amount of waste residue and waste liquid in the process of producing photovoltaic panels. At present, these waste residue and waste liquid can only be transferred to ordinary building materials manufacturers to make bricks and stones and other materials. The companies also need to pay a large amount of environmental protection funds, which also brings great problems to environmental protection.
