Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of comprehensive utilization of solid waste, and particularly to a method for preparing a coal gangue-based active cementitious material by pellet sintering. Background Art

[0002] Coal is the main energy source in China. Coal gangue is a solid waste generated during coal mining and washing processes. It is a black-gray rock with a lower carbon content and higher hardness than coal, which is associated with coal during the coal formation process. It accounts for about 15 - 20% of the coal production. The stockpile of coal gangue in China has exceeded 7 billion tons and is steadily increasing at a rate of 150 - 350 million tons per year. The large-scale stacking of coal gangue has brought very serious social, environmental, and economic problems. The main components of coal gangue are Al2O3 and SiO2, which are similar to those of building materials, and the market demand for building materials is large. Therefore, using coal gangue to prepare building materials (such as cementitious materials) can achieve the large-scale consumption and resource utilization of coal gangue. The key to using coal gangue to prepare cementitious materials is to adopt appropriate methods to increase its activity and reduce the residual carbon and loss on ignition in coal gangue.

[0003] Chinese Patent CN117760202A discloses a process and device for coupling coal gangue calcination activation with tunnel kiln brick-making equipment. The coal gangue is calcined in the tunnel kiln for 24 - 36 hours. Although this process is simple, it has a long calcination time, high energy consumption, and low output. Chinese Patent CN113429137B discloses a method for preparing geopolymers from coal gangue by microwave activation. The coal gangue powder is heat-insulated in a microwave processor for 1 - 6 hours. This process has a long calcination time, high energy consumption, low output, and it is extremely difficult and costly to scale up the microwave oven for large-scale industrial production. Therefore, the above two processes cannot handle a large amount of coal gangue on a large scale.

[0004] Chinese Patent CN110078401B discloses a process for preparing active admixtures by belt sintering of coal gangue, Chinese Patent CN113526883B discloses a fuel-free self-heating ultra-high bed decarbonization process for coal gangue, and Chinese Patent CN115448623B discloses a method for preparing cementitious materials by sintering and activating coal gangue. These methods all use sintering processes to decarbonize and activate coal gangue. These processes require the fixed carbon content of coal gangue to be 2% - 5%, which limits the use of coal gangue with a higher fixed carbon content in these processes; and these processes use a cylindrical granulator to granulate coal gangue, but the permeability of the material layer is poor during the suction sintering process of the granulation product, the sintering time is long, and the utilization coefficient is not high, making it difficult to consume a large amount of coal gangue and restricting the further application of these processes. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the problems in the prior art of small gangue processing capacity, small applicable range of gangue, poor activation effect of gangue, and low sintering utilization coefficient of conventional granulation products, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing gangue-based active cementitious materials by pellet sintering, broaden the range of available gangue, use pellet sintering to strengthen gangue decarbonization and activation, improve the permeability of the material layer, thereby improving the utilization coefficient and realizing high-value and large-scale utilization of gangue.

[0006] In order to achieve the above technical objectives, the technical solution of the present invention is:

[0007] The present invention provides a method for preparing a gangue-based active cementitious material by pellet sintering, comprising the following steps:

[0008] S1. crushing and fine-grinding coal gangue, other solid waste and fuel respectively to obtain finely ground raw materials;

[0009] S2, mixing the finely ground raw materials obtained in step S1 according to a set ratio, adding water and mixing well to obtain a mixture;

[0010] S3, pelletizing the mixed material obtained in step S2 to obtain green balls, screening the green balls, and using the green balls with qualified particle size for subsequent sintering, decarburization and activation, while the green balls with unqualified particle size are crushed, and the process returns to step S2;

[0011] S4, placing materials on the belt sintering machine trolley, then igniting, heat preservation, ventilation sintering and cooling, decarbonizing and activating the coal gangue to obtain finished ore;

[0012] S5, crushing and finely grinding the finished ore obtained in step S4 to obtain an active gelling material.

[0013] In a preferred solution, in step S1, the coal gangue is clay rock gangue, and the fixed carbon content of the coal gangue is 2% to 20%. This method is suitable for coal gangue with a fixed carbon content greater than 5%, thus broadening the scope of utilization of the coal gangue.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, in step S1, the other solid wastes are divided into aluminosilicate-based solid wastes and calcium-based solid wastes, which can be divided into coal-fired boiler waste slag, mining tailings, engineering slag, and silt sludge according to their sources, including but not limited to fly ash, garbage incineration slag, iron tailings, red mud, steel slag, chromium slag, phosphorus slag, ferromanganese slag, carbide slag, desulfurized gypsum, construction excavation, subway excavation, river sludge, lake mud, and urban sludge. One or more.

[0015] Calcium-based solid waste decomposes at high temperature to produce reactive free calcium oxide, which reacts with aluminosilicate-based solid waste, aluminosilicates in coal gangue, and iron-containing minerals to form minerals such as tricalcium silicate (C3S), dicalcium silicate (C2S), tricalcium aluminate (C3A), and tetracalcium ferroaluminate (C4AF). These generated minerals have hydraulicity and are important components of active cementitious materials.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment, in step S1, the fuel is one or more of anthracite, bituminous coal, and semi-coke.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment, in step S1, the coal gangue, other solid waste, and fuel are crushed and finely ground to a particle size of -1 mm; more preferably, they are crushed and finely ground to a particle size of -0.5 mm.

[0018] In a preferred embodiment, in step S1, the crushing treatment is carried out using one or more of a jaw crusher, a pair-roll crusher, a cone crusher, a counterattack crusher, an impact crusher, and a hammer crusher;

[0019] The fine grinding treatment is carried out in the following three ways: wet ball milling with water followed by drying, high-pressure roller milling under natural moisture, and dry ball milling after drying; more preferably, high-pressure roller milling pretreatment under natural moisture is adopted.

[0020] The finer the raw materials, the smaller their particle size, the larger their specific surface area, the larger the contact area between components, and at the same time, the greater the free energy of surface particles, which enhances the reaction and diffusion ability. Therefore, the reaction rate is faster, and the decarbonization and activation effects are better. However, when the raw materials are ground to a certain extent, if further fine grinding is continued, the increase in the reaction rate is not obvious, while the output of the mill will be greatly reduced, and the power consumption for grinding will increase sharply. Therefore, it is necessary to make a comprehensive balance and control the raw material particle size within an appropriate range.

[0021] In a preferred embodiment, in step S2, the mass percentages (by dry weight) of coal gangue, other solid waste, and fuel are:

[0022] Coal gangue 50% - 100%, other solid waste 0% - 50%, fuel 0% - 7%;

[0023] More preferably, coal gangue 60% - 90%, other solid waste 10% - 40%, fuel 0% - 7%.

[0024] In a preferred embodiment, in step S2, 1% - 5% water is added to mix the raw materials evenly, and the fixed carbon content of the mixture is maintained at 2.0% - 10% (by dry weight). The addition amount of other solid waste is adjusted according to its output and product performance. If the fixed carbon content of the coal gangue is relatively high, the fuel can be not added, and the addition amount of other solid waste can be increased; if the fixed carbon content of the coal gangue is relatively low, fuel needs to be supplemented, and the addition amount of other solid waste can be reduced.

[0025] More preferably, the fixed carbon content of the mixture is maintained at 2% - 6.5% (by dry weight).

[0026] Coal gangue can not only serve as the matrix of silicon and aluminum in the cementitious material, but also play the role of fuel during the activation process due to the carbon it contains; other solid wastes play three roles: first, providing free calcium oxide to strengthen the activation effect of coal gangue; second, providing aluminosilicate as the matrix of the cementitious material; third, adjusting the fixed carbon content of the mixture. If the fixed carbon content in the mixture is too low, it may lead to decarbonization, and the material layer cannot burn or burns insufficiently during the activation process, resulting in low activity of the cementitious material; if the fixed carbon content is too high, it is easy to cause the temperature of the material layer to be too high, and a large amount of mullite phase is likely to be generated during the crystallization process, resulting in a decrease in the activity of the cementitious material.

[0027] In a preferred embodiment, in step S3, a disc pelletizer or a drum pelletizer is used for pelletizing. The moisture content of the green pellets produced is 7% - 15%, the average particle size of the qualified green pellets is 5 - 8 mm, and the green pellets have different sizes and inconsistent particle diameters. The air permeability resistance of the green pellet layer is 30 - 60 mmH2O. If the moisture content of the green pellets is too low, it is easy to cause poor pelletizing effect during the pelletizing process; if the moisture content of the green pellets is too high, on the one hand, it will cause the material to stick to the disc during the pelletizing process, and on the other hand, it will make the particle diameter of the green pellets too large, resulting in too fast sintering speed, high residual carbon in the finished ore, and low activity. An appropriate particle size of the green pellets can make the air permeability of the material layer moderate, and while having a high utilization coefficient, it can reduce the residual carbon content of the finished ore and improve its activity.

[0028] In a preferred embodiment, in step S4, during the feeding process, the particle size of the bottom layer material is 12 - 25 mm, the height of the bottom layer material is controlled to be 20 - 70 mm, and the total height of the material layer is controlled to be 800 - 2000 mm; the total height of the material layer is also the height of the bottom layer material + the height of the qualified green pellets. If the fixed carbon content of the coal gangue < 5%, the bottom layer material is the original crushed coal gangue; if the fixed carbon content of the coal gangue ≥ 5%, the bottom layer material is the crushed finished ore, which can play a role in protecting the grate bars. Using a high material layer and an ultra-high material layer for decarbonization and activation can utilize its self-heating effect, so that less fuel can be used to achieve the same or even better decarbonization and activation effects. However, the material layer should not be too high, as too high a material layer will lead to too large a material layer resistance and too slow a sintering speed.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment, in step S4, the ignition time is 2 - 5 min, the ignition temperature is 900 - 1150 °C, and the ignition negative pressure is 4 - 6 kPa; the holding temperature is 800 - 900 °C, and the holding time is 3 - 6 min; the negative pressure during the suction sintering is 7 - 18 kPa. By reasonably adjusting the above parameters, the sintering process can have a high utilization coefficient, and at the same time, the decarbonization and activation effects of the finished ore are good.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, in step S4, the cooling time is 4 to 12 minutes, and the cooling negative pressure is 5 to 15 kPa to rapidly cool the finished ore. The main functions of rapid cooling are as follows: it can prevent the conversion of β-dicalcium silicate (C2S) to γ-dicalcium silicate (C2S), and prevent the decomposition of tricalcium silicate (C3S) into dicalcium silicate (C2S) and free calcium oxide, thereby obtaining higher hydraulicity; rapid cooling can prevent MgO from crystallizing in time and existing in the vitreous body, reducing its harm to the soundness of the cementitious material; rapid cooling can make tricalcium aluminate (C3A) mainly in the vitreous state, so the cementitious material has strong resistance to sulfate solution corrosion; rapid cooling can increase the vitreous content, and at the same time cause internal stress in the finished ore, which can significantly improve the grindability of the finished ore and reduce the fine grinding cost of the subsequent production of active cementitious materials from the finished ore.

[0031] In a preferred embodiment, in step S5, the properties of the obtained active cementitious material are as follows: the proportion of particles with a size of -0.08 mm is 97% to 99%, the loss on ignition is ≤3%, the residual carbon content is ≤3%, the specific surface area is 300 to 500 m 2 / kg, and the activity index is ≥75%.

[0032] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial technical effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0033] (1) The fixed carbon content of the coal gangue applicable to the present invention is significantly expanded. The fixed carbon content of the coal gangue required by the prior art is 2% to 5%, and the suitable fixed carbon content range of the coal gangue of the present invention is expanded to 2% to 20%. After the available fixed carbon content range of the coal gangue is expanded, about 70% of the coal gangue can be used in the present invention. In addition, there are many types of other available solid wastes, wide sources, and large production volumes. Appropriate addition of other solid wastes can not only realize the disposal of other solid wastes, but also strengthen the activation of coal gangue. The present invention can realize the resource utilization of multiple solid wastes mainly composed of coal gangue.

[0034] (2) The present invention uses pellet sintering to decarbonize and activate coal gangue to prepare cementitious materials. Compared with conventional granulation sintering, the advantages of pellet sintering are as follows: when the properties of the cementitious material are similar, the utilization coefficient of pellet sintering is higher than that of conventional granulation sintering, and the treatment amount of solid waste is larger. This is because the permeability of the green pellets prepared by pelletizing is better than that of the raw material particles of conventional granulation, and the vertical sintering speed is increased. When the utilization coefficient is similar during the sintering process, the properties of the cementitious material prepared by pellet sintering are better than those of conventional granulation sintering. This is because the raw materials before pelletizing need to be crushed and finely ground to -1 mm, while the raw materials for granulation are required to be -8 mm. The finer the particles, the more conducive to the reaction between particles, thereby achieving more efficient decarbonization and activation.

[0035] (3) The present invention realizes the rapid cooling of the finished ore by increasing the cooling negative pressure and prolonging the on-machine cooling time. The functions of rapid cooling are as follows: First, it can avoid the reduction of effective minerals such as tricalcium silicate (C3S) and β-dicalcium silicate (C2S) during the cooling process. At the same time, MgO and tricalcium aluminate (C3A) are present in the vitreous body, which can improve the performance of the product cementitious material. Second, rapid cooling enables the formation of a large amount of amorphous glass phase, which can improve the grindability of the finished ore and reduce the grinding cost of preparing the cementitious material from the subsequent finished ore. Third, it avoids the slow cooling of the finished ore after unloading, which may damage the subsequent ore-breaking, fine-grinding equipment and conveyor belts. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
