Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of solid waste resource utilization, and in particular to a method for preparing an admixture by multi-parameter screening and grading pretreatment of sludge incineration ash. Background Art

[0002] The chemical composition of sludge incineration ash is mainly SiO2, Al2O3, CaO and Fe2O3, and contains a certain glass phase. It has potential cementing activity and can replace part of cement as an auxiliary cementing material for mortar and concrete, reducing the amount of cement to achieve the purpose of energy saving and carbon reduction. At present, some companies use sludge incineration ash to prepare mixed materials or admixtures. However, compared with commonly used auxiliary cementing materials such as fly ash and mineral powder, sewage sludge comes from a wide range of sources and contains harmful substances such as heavy metals and organic pollutants. In addition, various modifiers are added during the sludge dehydration process, and the sludge composition varies greatly at different times, resulting in large differences in the material properties of sludge incineration ash and unstable properties. There are still the following problems when using it directly for mortar and concrete: ① The composition of sludge incineration ash is complex and the material properties vary greatly, which affects the stability of the performance of mortar and concrete; ② The sludge incineration ash has less glass phase and lower activity; ③ The sludge incineration ash has a high phosphorus content, which leads to slow cement hydration reaction and abnormal cement setting time, affecting the engineering quality and safety of mortar and concrete; ④ The sludge incineration ash is enriched with a large amount of heavy metals such as Cd, Pb, Cr, and the porous structure aggravates the risk of heavy metal leaching, affecting environmental safety.

[0003] Since the fineness, water demand ratio, strength activity index and other properties of sludge incineration ash from different sewage treatment plants vary greatly, if targeted pretreatment is not carried out, it will cause waste of energy and resources. Summary of the invention

[0029] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] The present invention provides a technical solution: a method for preparing an admixture by multi-parameter screening and grading pretreatment of sludge incineration ash, comprising the following steps:

[0031] (1) Testing the leaching toxicity of heavy metals in sludge incineration ash;

[0032] (2) Test the fineness of sludge incineration ash (45 μm square hole sieve residue);

[0033] (3) Testing the strength activity index of sludge incineration ash;

[0034] (4) Based on the comprehensive analysis and judgment of the above parameters, the sludge incineration ash is classified and graded before pretreatment.

[0035] in,

[0036] When the heavy metal leaching toxicity of the sludge incineration ash is total mercury ≤ 0.02 mg / L, total arsenic ≤ 0.6 mg / L, total cadmium ≤ 0.1 mg / L, total chromium ≤ 1.5 mg / L, and total lead ≤ 2.0 mg / L, proceed to steps (2) to (5); otherwise, the sludge should be landfilled in accordance with the provisions of GB 18598.

[0037] Sludge incineration ash with fineness (45μm square hole sieve residue) ≤30% and strength activity index ≥70% has met the requirements of Class II fly ash and can be directly used without treatment;

[0038] For sludge incineration ash with fineness (45μm square hole sieve residue) ≤30%, 60%≤strength activity index <70%, the fineness meets the requirements, but the content of silicon-aluminum glass is relatively small, so it needs to be compounded with fly ash in a certain proportion to supplement the silicon-aluminum glass in the admixture;

[0039] For sludge incineration ash with fineness (45μm square hole sieve residue) ≤30% and strength activity index <60%, the fineness meets the requirements but the activity is low. This is because the P2O5 content in the sludge incineration ash is high, which affects the hydration process of the cementitious material system. Improving the activity by simply compounding or ball milling the fly ash cannot meet the activity requirements of Class II fly ash. Therefore, it is necessary to add a modifier to stimulate the activity, and to stimulate the activity by increasing the Ca2+ ions or SO42- in the system.

[0040] For sludge incineration ash whose fineness (45μm square hole sieve residue) is greater than 30% and less than or equal to 45%, and whose strength activity index is 60%≤<70%, this is because the particle size distribution of sludge incineration ash is large and the area of ​​hydration reaction is small. Therefore, the sludge incineration ash can be directly pre-treated by ball milling;

[0041] For sludge incineration ash with a fineness (45μm square hole sieve residue) greater than 30% and less than or equal to 45%, or sludge incineration ash with a fineness (45μm square hole sieve residue) greater than 45%, and a strength activity index less than 60%, the activity cannot be improved by simply increasing the reaction area through ball milling. Therefore, it is necessary to use a physical-chemical combined excitation method of adding modifiers and ball milling pretreatment for pretreatment.

[0042] Example 1

[0043] Sludge incineration ash produced at different times in a sewage treatment plant was selected for heavy metal leaching toxicity, fineness (45μm square hole sieve residue) and strength activity index testing. The fineness was tested in accordance with GB / T 1596-2017 "Fly ash used in cement and concrete", and the strength activity index was tested in accordance with GB / T 17671-2021 "Test method for strength of cement mortar (ISO method)". The test results are shown in Figure 1 .

[0044] From the test results, it can be seen that except for the heavy metal leaching toxicity of sample No. 1 which is unqualified, the heavy metal leaching toxicity of the other samples No. 2-4 does not exceed the standard and can be used as raw materials for resource utilization. According to the performance test results of samples No. 2-4, their fineness is ≤30%, but the strength activity index varies greatly. According to the technical solution of the present invention, samples 3 and 4 are respectively pre-treated by compounding with fly ash in proportion and adding modifiers. The performance of the admixtures prepared after pretreatment is as follows Figure 2 shown.

[0045] Depend on Figure 2 It can be seen that after compounding with fly ash, the strength activity index of sample No. 3 was increased to 72.0%, reaching the requirements of Class II fly ash; after adding modifier, the strength activity index of sample No. 4 increased from 45.2% to more than 70%, especially the sludge incineration ash with the addition of lime, calcium hydroxide and desulfurization ash, whose strength activity index can reach up to 76.7%.

[0046] Example 2

[0047] Sludge incineration ash produced at different times in a sewage treatment plant was selected for heavy metal leaching toxicity, fineness (45μm square hole sieve residue) and strength activity index testing. The fineness was tested in accordance with GB / T 1596-2017 "Fly ash used in cement and concrete", and the strength activity index was tested in accordance with GB / T 17671-2021 "Test method for strength of cement mortar (ISO method)". The test results are shown in Figure 3 .

[0048] From the test results, it can be seen that the heavy metal toxicity leaching of all samples is qualified and can be used as raw materials for resource utilization. The strength activity index of samples 1 and 2 is both above 60.0%, and only the fineness is not more than 45%. Ball milling pretreatment is used to improve their activity; the fineness of samples 3 and 4 is more than 30% and less than 45%, and the strength activity index is less than 60%. Modifiers are used for pretreatment and ball milling for 15 minutes; the fineness of samples 5 and 6 is more than 45%, and the strength activity index is less than 60%. Modifiers are used for pretreatment and ball milling for 20 minutes. The performance of the admixtures prepared after pretreatment is as follows: Figure 4 shown.

[0049] Depend on Figure 4 It can be seen that after 10 minutes of ball milling, the strength activity index of samples 1 and 2 is above 70.0%, reaching the requirements of Class II fly ash; after 15 minutes of ball milling, the fineness of samples 3 and 4 becomes smaller, and the strength activity index increases to nearly 75.0%; after 20 minutes of ball milling, the fineness of samples 5 and 6 becomes smaller, and the strength activity index increases to over 75.0%, both meeting the requirements of Class II fly ash.

[0050] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, it is still possible for those skilled in the art to modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or to make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
