Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of solid waste treatment, and more specifically, to a fly ash harmless treatment process. Background Art

[0002] With the widespread application of incineration technology in hazardous waste treatment, fly ash treatment in hazardous waste incineration plants will be a hot topic and a difficult problem in the current environmental field. This is because the fly ash output is large, and it contains a large amount of heavy metal elements, salts, and highly toxic dioxins and other pollutants, which are listed in the HW18 category of the National Hazardous Waste List. Therefore, fly ash must be disposed of in accordance with the standards for hazardous waste, and must be harmlessly disposed of before it can be used as a resource.

[0003] The output of fly ash is related to the type of garbage, incineration conditions, incinerator type and flue gas treatment process, and generally accounts for about 3% to 5% of the amount of garbage incinerated. Due to the continuous generation of urban garbage, domestic garbage incineration power plants maintain high-load operation all year round, increasing the emission and treatment needs of pollutants such as nitrogen oxides, dioxins, fly ash, and odorous gases. If they are not properly handled, it will bring environmental problems and social impacts; measures must be taken to promote the coordinated development of garbage incineration treatment capacity and incineration fly ash harmless disposal technology.

[0004] Municipal waste incineration fly ash is a highly alkaline fly ash with a Ph value of about 13, a surface area of ​​13.05㎡ / g, and a dioxin toxicity equivalent of 87-200 nanograms per kilogram. The Cl content in the fly ash reaches 20-40%.

[0005] At present, there is no effective technology to completely solve the problem of harmless treatment and resource recycling of garbage fly ash in various garbage incineration plants. Existing studies have shown that melting treatment can completely decompose dioxins in fly ash, and the low-boiling heavy metal elements and their compounds contained in the fly ash are volatilized and transferred to the air, while the remaining metals are transferred to glass slag. The high-temperature oxidizing atmosphere melting treatment is either to design special equipment or to use the pelletizing vertical furnace, sintering furnace, steelmaking converter, etc. in the ironmaking equipment. However, when the high-temperature oxidizing atmosphere melting treatment is used, when the melting temperature is above 800°C, the trivalent chromium in the heavy metals will be completely converted into hexavalent chromium, and hexavalent chromium is an ingested poison / inhaled extremely toxic substance. Skin contact may cause sensitivity, and it is more likely to cause hereditary gene defects. Inhalation may cause cancer and has a lasting danger to the environment. This is not allowed in domestic and foreign environmental protection standards. The use of high-temperature reducing atmosphere melting method can effectively avoid this problem, but the current high-temperature reducing atmosphere melting methods at home and abroad all use special high-temperature reducing atmosphere melting equipment, but the construction and operation costs of these equipment are extremely high, making it difficult to implement industrialization. Thereby limiting the harmless treatment of garbage fly ash.

[0006] Patent CN106734099A discloses a process for high-temperature harmless disposal of waste incineration fly ash using secondary material composite technology, which includes the following steps: (1) waste incineration fly ash is used as a core material, a reducing agent containing a C raw material is added, or a chlorine absorbent and / or additive containing CaO is further added, and a core is made under the action of an adhesive; the dry weight ratio of the waste incineration fly ash, the reducing agent, the chlorine absorbent, and the additive is 50-80%, 10-30%, 0-6%, and 0-15% respectively; (2) the core and the chlorine absorbent containing CaO are mixed, and a layer of chlorine absorbent is formed on the outside of the core under the action of an adhesive. shielding layer, forming pellets, the amount of chlorine absorbent accounts for 3-10% of the weight of the dry composite ball; (3) the pellets prepared in step (2) and the shell material are wrapped with a shell on the outside under the action of an adhesive through a ball making device to form a secondary material composite pellet; the shell material uses non-toxic and harmless materials and other additives; (4) the secondary material composite pellets are finally incinerated in an incineration device for high-temperature harmless disposal; the incineration device uses a metallurgical sintering machine or a solid waste harmless incineration device; the moisture content of the ball core is controlled to be 18-28%, the diameter of the ball core is 1-3 mm, the compressive strength is greater than 7N / piece, and the drop strength is greater than 20 times / piece. Although this process effectively solves the above problems, it is necessary to add a chlorine absorbent and a C-containing reducing agent or a melting additive before forming the ball core, and it is necessary to form a ball again after pre-coating. The process is relatively complicated and cumbersome, which is not conducive to saving time and space. The required equipment occupies a large area and is not suitable for construction in a waste incineration plant with a small open space area. Summary of the invention

[0047] Preferably, the harmless fly ash solidified material can be landfilled or piled up, or can be utilized as a building material for resource utilization.

[0048] The implementation principle of the fly ash harmless treatment process of the present application embodiment is as follows: the present invention uses anhydrous citric acid to degrade dioxins and Cl in the fly ash of municipal waste incineration in a specific mechanical device. Citric acid is an organic acid, and its colorless crystals often contain 1 molecule of crystal water, which is derived from microbial fermentation extraction. Citric acid can promote the dissolution of heavy metals in fly ash under acidic conditions. For example, citric acid can react with lead (Pb 2 +), cadmium (Cd 2 +), copper (Cu2+) and other metal ions to form soluble citrates (such as lead citrate, cadmium citrate, etc.). Citric acid, as a ligand, can encapsulate metal ions together through complexation, reduce their free ion concentration, and thus reduce the bioavailability and toxicity of metals. For example, citric acid can form stable complexes with metal ions, making it difficult for these metal ions to migrate and diffuse. Under the synergistic effect of mechanical energy and organic acids, physical and chemical reactions occur, thereby effectively removing Cl from fly ash. Under the action of the mechanical energy of the stirring equipment and the grinding equipment, strong mechanical disturbances are generated, so that the fly ash and citric acid are fully mixed, repeatedly collide and impact with each other, and free radicals are generated at the same time. Therefore, under the high-speed impact of the machine and the high-speed rotation flow and impact of the air, the materials, under the action of mechanical energy, impact and flow with each other with the high-speed irregular rotation of the air, forming a mechanical disturbance effect and a chemical effect, so that the materials and fly ash repeatedly impact at high speed, and leaching anions and cations, while oxygen atoms continuously attack C bonds, and physical and chemical reactions occur at the same time, achieving the effect of degradation and removal of harmful and toxic substances in fly ash.

[0049] The present invention uses mechanical equipment to harmlessly treat fly ash. The equipment is simple and easy to operate, fully automated, and easy to maintain. It has the advantages of high efficiency and short reaction time, no sewage, no smoke, no dust, no exhaust gas, and no carbon emissions. The materials are all from production and life, which is green, environmentally friendly and safe. The power required to process one ton per hour is 330KW, and the power consumption is relatively low.

[0050] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
