Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of comprehensive utilization of iron and steel smelting, and particularly relates to a method for directly mineralizing carbon dioxide by using magnesium reduction slag. Background Art

[0002] When magnesium reduction slag is discharged from a metal magnesium smelting plant, it usually has a relatively high temperature. If it is randomly stacked, it will not only cause harm to the surrounding environment, but also result in the loss of the physical sensible heat of the magnesium slag, causing a large amount of heat energy waste. At present, the main utilization method of magnesium reduction slag is to replace part of the raw material to burn cement clinker. Although the utilization value of magnesium reduction slag is improved, secondary calcination will increase the process cost, and the too high content of magnesium oxide in the slag will lead to a decrease in the strength of the cement. Therefore, developing a method for directly mineralizing carbon dioxide by using magnesium reduction slag has important practical significance.

[0003] Patent 202310176603.6 discloses a method for sequestering carbon dioxide by using magnesium reduction slag to produce light magnesium carbonate and co-producing calcium carbonate, which uses an acidic solution to leach magnesium reduction slag to enrich calcium and magnesium ions. This patent adopts a common wet carbon sequestration method, which is prone to problems such as equipment and pipeline corrosion, and has high process energy consumption, generating a large amount of wastewater and causing great environmental protection pressure. Patent 202110062242.3 discloses a recovery process for magnesium oxide reduction slag. This patent adopts a direct mineralization method of external heating and increasing gas partial pressure, without making full use of the physical sensible heat of the magnesium slag, resulting in waste of heat energy, and the external heating increases the process cost.
