Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of preparing phase change materials from waste materials, and in particular to a process and method for preparing composite phase change materials from solid waste recycling. Background Art

[0002] Lithium carbonate, a material for lithium batteries, is extracted from minerals such as lepidolite / spodumene. When refining lithium carbonate, a large amount of lepidolite / spodumene slag is produced. These slags need to be treated before they can be discharged. Otherwise, the metal ions inside the slag will cause serious pollution to the environment, and treating the slag will waste a lot of money. The slag contains a large amount of precious metals. Treating and utilizing the slag can turn waste into treasure and increase economic benefits.

[0003] The defects of the existing composite phase change material preparation method are: 1. Patent document CN114032073A discloses a method for preparing a composite phase change material of slag expanded beads. However, the method for preparing a composite phase change material of slag expanded beads in the above-mentioned public document has a relatively complicated process, cannot consume solid waste quickly, and cannot solve the problem of large-scale accumulation of slag. Therefore, it is necessary to design a process and method for recycling and preparing composite phase change materials with a simple production process and high slag consumption, thereby solving the cost problem and environmental pollution problem of slag accumulation.

[0004] 2. Patent document CN114890811A discloses a method for preparing porous phase change energy storage materials and methods using mining solid waste. However, the phase change material used in the above-mentioned public document has a low phase change temperature and cannot store energy under high temperature conditions. Therefore, it is necessary to design a process and method for recycling solid waste to prepare composite phase change materials that can store heat in multiple temperature environments, thereby solving the problem of limited application scenarios of composite phase change materials, expanding the scope of use, and promoting the consumption of solid waste inventory.

[0005] 3. Patent document EP3004278A1 discloses an improved phase change composition. The phase change material in this patent will change in volume when the temperature changes. The volume of the phase change material increases when the temperature rises. The phase change material is easy to destroy the sealed container when it expands in a closed container, thereby causing the phase change material to leak. Therefore, a process and method for recycling solid waste with a small volume change with temperature to prepare a composite phase change material is needed to solve this problem.

[0006] 4. Patent document EP2665590A1 discloses a heating device. The air flow rate inside the heating device in this patent is slow during heating, and the heating of the product is mainly through thermal radiation. When heating a product with holes, the hot air cannot quickly enter the holes of the product, resulting in a slow heating speed of the product. Therefore, a process and method for recycling solid waste to prepare composite phase change materials that can accelerate the flow of hot air is needed to solve this problem.

Billet preparation step: The slag in step a is mixed with the phase change material to form a composite phase change material billet; c. Molding process: The composite phase change material blank in step b is processed to obtain a finished composite phase change material; The process of recycling solid waste to prepare composite phase change materials uses a solid waste treatment and crushing device 11, a calcining furnace 12, a mixing and stirring device 13, an air circulation device 14, a mold 22, a grinding and cutting machine 32 and a surface treatment packaging device 33.

[0060] The process of recycling solid waste to prepare composite phase change materials When using the porous material melt impregnation method to prepare composite phase change materials, a grinder 21, a press 23 and a sintering furnace 31 are also required. In the solid waste treatment link, the solid waste is crushed by the solid waste treatment crushing device 11, and the crushed solid waste is placed in the calcining furnace 12 for calcination. The air circulation device 14 allows the air inside the calcining furnace 12 to flow quickly, accelerating the heating of the slag by the high-temperature air, improving the heating efficiency, removing moisture and other impurities at a temperature d1, and obtaining the calcined solid waste. The calcined solid waste and the pore-forming agent are placed in the mixing and stirring device 13 for stirring, and aerogel is added to the mixing and stirring device 13 at the same time to obtain mixed solid waste. The mixed solid waste is placed in the mold 22 and calcined in the calcining furnace 12 at a temperature d5 to obtain a porous ceramic substrate prepared from solid waste. In the blank preparation link, the porous ceramic substrate prepared from solid waste is immersed in the phase change material and placed in the vacuum constant temperature drying device 24 with a set temperature of 60 0 is maintained for 2 hours, and after vacuum adsorption, a composite phase change material blank is obtained. In the molding process, the composite phase change material blank is polished and trimmed with a grinding and cutting machine 32. The trimmed composite phase change material is placed in a surface treatment packaging device 33 and encapsulated and protected with a packaging material to obtain a finished composite phase change material. The temperature d5 of the calcining furnace 12 is 800° C. The temperature d6 and the holding time d7 of the vacuum constant temperature drying device 24 are determined according to the phase change material used. During the heating process, the air in the aerogel will expand and overflow. After cooling, the air in the aerogel in the composite phase change material shrinks due to cooling. Since the aerogel is located inside the composite phase change material, air cannot enter. Therefore, the interior of the aerogel is in a low vacuum state. When the composite phase change material expands due to heat, the pores inside the aerogel provide expansion space for the composite phase change material, and the apparent volume of the composite phase change material does not increase too much. Therefore, the composite phase change material will not cause expansion damage to the container inside the sealed container. The mass ratio of slag to phase change material is 1:18.

[0061] The slag in step a is the slag after lithium extraction from lepidolite. The slag is an unsaturated aluminosilicate mineral, the main components of which are silicon dioxide, calcium carbonate and aluminum oxide, and has good refractory properties and thermal conductivity.

[0062] The phase change material is nitrate, which includes sodium nitrate, potassium nitrate and calcium nitrate.

[0063] The packaging material used in the surface treatment packaging device 33 is various metal packaging materials with high thermal conductivity.

[0064] The pore-forming agent is an acrylic acid ester copolymer.

[0065] The calcination temperature d1 of the calcination furnace 12 is 600°C.

[0066] The air internal circulation device 14 is a pipe whose output end and input end are respectively connected to the calcining furnace 12. A fan is installed on the pipe, the fan blades are inside the pipe, and the fan motor is outside the pipe.
