Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of metallurgical dust and sludge utilization, and in particular relates to a process for resource utilization of high-zinc metallurgical dust and sludge. Background Art

[0002] A large amount of iron-containing and zinc-containing metallurgical dust and mud will be generated during the steel production process. Since the metallurgical dust and mud contain harmful impurities such as zinc, chlorine, potassium, and sodium, especially high-zinc metallurgical dust and mud with a zinc content of >0.5%, if it is directly returned to ironmaking or steelmaking production, it will have a great negative impact on the smelting production process. Therefore, high-zinc metallurgical dust and mud must be dezincified before it can be returned to the main smelting production process such as ironmaking or steelmaking. Currently, a variety of processes for metallurgical dust and mud treatment have been developed, such as rotary hearth furnaces and rotary kilns. After being treated by processes such as rotary hearth furnaces and rotary kilns, the zinc in high-zinc dust and mud can be removed and recovered in the dust. However, the products produced by these processes after roasting are mainly metallized pellets and metallized pellet powder. Since the quality of metallized pellets is high, they can be directly returned to the main smelting production process such as ironmaking or steelmaking as raw materials, but the zinc content of the metallized pellet powder product is still very high. Therefore, the application of metallized pellet powder has become a bottleneck for the comprehensive utilization of high-zinc dust and mud in processes such as rotary hearth furnaces and rotary kilns.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to develop a technology that can comprehensively treat high-zinc metallurgical dust and mud to solve the process bottleneck of the existing rotary hearth furnace and rotary kiln in treating high-zinc metallurgical dust and mud. Summary of the invention

[0028] In order to better understand the above technical solution of the present invention, the technical solution of the present invention is further described below in conjunction with embodiments.

[0029] The present invention can solve the process bottleneck of the existing rotary hearth furnace and rotary kiln processing process for high-zinc metallurgical dust and mud. By combining the rotary hearth furnace process with the artificial stone manufacturing process, the low-quality metallized pellet powder produced by the rotary hearth furnace is directly or through the grinding and magnetic separation process into the artificial stone manufacturing process, and the metallized pellet powder that cannot be used is made into high-quality artificial stone, and the metallized pellet powder product of the rotary hearth furnace process is comprehensively utilized, thereby comprehensively utilizing the high-zinc metallurgical dust and mud.

[0030] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the high-zinc metallurgical dust and mud resource utilization process provided by the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0031] S1, mixing high zinc metallurgical dust, a binder, a reducing agent and water to obtain a mixture;

[0032] This step is a batching process. High zinc metallurgical dust is quantitatively discharged from a silo and mixed with a quantitative reducing agent and a binder in a mixer. During the mixing process, about 10-15% of water can be added. The raw materials are mixed uniformly by the mixer to obtain a mixed material. The components of the high zinc metallurgical dust used are as follows: 0.5-35% Zn, 20-65% Fe, 0.1-35% C, 1-35% Si, 1-35% Ca, 0.001-5% Mn, <0.1S, <3% P, 0.3-8% TiO2; in a preferred embodiment, the Zn content in the high zinc metallurgical dust can be 5-35% Zn.

[0033] In the above mixture, the mass proportion of the binder is 1-6% for sufficient dezincification, and the mass proportion of the reducing agent is 2-18%. The reducing agent can be one or two of carbon powder and CDQ powder, or other reducing agents.

[0034] S2, after forming and drying the mixed material, sending it into a rotary hearth furnace for reduction roasting to generate zinc-containing fume, metallized pellets, and metallized pellet powder;

[0035] In this step, the mixture enters a forming machine and is formed into pellets through a forming process. The forming process can be formed by a pellet press or a disc pelletizer. The formed pellets enter a dryer for drying, for example, they can be dried by a chain grate or a mesh belt dryer. The dried pellets enter the furnace of a rotary hearth furnace for reduction roasting, and after high-temperature reduction, zinc-containing flue gas, metallized pellets, and metallized pellet powder are generated; zinc, potassium, sodium, and chlorine in high-zinc metallurgical dust enter the flue gas of the rotary hearth furnace and are collected to form zinc-containing flue gas. The zinc-containing flue gas is collected after dust removal to obtain secondary zinc oxide powder, and the secondary zinc oxide powder enters the zinc smelting process; the metallized pellets can enter the steelmaking or ironmaking process, and the metal products obtained are cast iron, pig iron, or molten steel.

[0036] In the above-mentioned reduction roasting process, for high-zinc metallurgical dust, the reduction roasting temperature and roasting time are increased to ensure that all the metallic zinc formed after roasting enters the flue gas in the form of steam; in the specific scheme, the temperature of the high temperature zone of the rotary hearth furnace is 1280-1380°C, and the reduction roasting time is 6-15 minutes.

[0037] The metallization rate of the metallized pellets after reduction roasting reaches 20-96%; the mass percentage compositions of the metallized pellets and metallized pellet powder are as follows: 30-70% Fe, 0.01-5% C, 1-35% Si, 1-35% Ca, 0.001-5% Mn, <0.5S, <3% P.

[0038] S3, the metallized pellet powder is added as a raw material into an artificial stone manufacturing process to obtain artificial stone.

[0039] This step is the artificial stone manufacturing process. The metallized pellet powder is used as a raw material and mixed with other raw materials such as marble crushed stone, quartz sand, stone powder, filler, etc., and the artificial stone product is obtained through mixing, molding, laminating, drying, and polishing. In the above process, the amount of metallized pellet powder added is 3-19% of the total amount of raw materials.

[0040] The mass percentage composition of the artificial stone obtained above is as follows: 15-40% CaO, 31-70% SiO2, 3-15% Al2O3, 0.3-5% Fe2O3, 0.3-8% TiO2, and the Mohs strength of the artificial stone is greater than level 6.
