Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of sound-absorbing materials, and in particular relates to a method for preparing small-particle ceramsite used as sound-absorbing material for sound barriers. Technical Background
[0002] In the field of noise control for high-speed railways and urban rail transit, traditional sound barrier sound-absorbing materials mostly use fiber materials such as rock wool, and are presented in the form of a structure wrapped with hydrophobic cloth. However, such materials have many significant defects, such as the difficulty of quality control. Rock wool and hydrophobic cloth are prone to damage, powdering and collapse due to production processes or environmental factors, resulting in the loss of acoustic function of the sound barrier. Traditional cement-based sound-absorbing materials have poor acoustic performance, low sound absorption coefficient, insufficient sound insulation, and mechanical strength (compression and flexural strength) and durability that cannot meet long-term use requirements. From an environmental perspective, the production of traditional materials relies on natural resources and fails to effectively solve the problem of resource utilization of solid waste such as construction waste and sludge, which is contrary to the requirements of green and low-carbon development.
[0003] In contrast, the ceramsite firing process has been widely used in the construction field due to its light weight, high strength, high sound absorption, high seismic resistance, and high stability. Its stable properties, high sound absorption, light weight, and high pressure resistance make it promising as a sound-absorbing material for high-speed railway sound barriers. However, the existing ceramsite firing process has some limitations. On the one hand, the prepared ceramsite particle size is often large, which makes it difficult to fully exert its acoustic function when the thickness of the sound barrier is limited. On the other hand, ceramsite of different particle sizes and gradations has different absorption effects on noise of different frequencies, making it difficult to effectively reduce high-speed railway noise, thus limiting the application of ceramsite in railway sound barriers.
[0004] In summary, how to introduce expanded clay into railway sound barriers and give full play to its advantages while solving the problems of large particle size, heavy volume, limited absorption frequency range and insufficient mechanical properties of existing expanded clay has become a hot topic of current research.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0039] For ease of understanding, the present invention will be described in more detail below, and examples of the present invention are given, but the scope of the present invention is not limited thereby.
[0040] The following is a description of terms or words, and unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs.
[0041] Unless otherwise specified, the moisture content, iron content and aluminum content mentioned in the present invention refer to mass content.
[0042] The present invention provides a method for preparing small-size ceramsite for use as a sound barrier and sound-absorbing material, comprising the following steps:
[0043] S1: Detect and classify the soil components, and then adjust the soil to have an iron content of 5% to 8% and an aluminum content of 1% to 19% after classification;
[0044] S2: Mix the soil source and adjust the moisture content of the mixed soil source to 20%-30%, and make the soil source into a precursor adobe with a particle size of 0.4-4.75 mm, wherein the sludge mass accounts for less than 30%, and add the precursor adobe into the pelletizer to prepare adobe pellets.
[0045] Among them, the granulator meets
[0046] 0.25≤K1≤0.4,
[0047]
[0048] 0.55≤K2≤0.8, where the disk diameter is d, in meters, and the angle between the disk axis and the plumb line is The speed of the pelletizer is V, in rad / s, and the feeding speed is Q (m 3 / h);
[0049] S3: calcining the adobe particles to obtain small-size ceramsite.
[0050] The frequency range of ceramsite sound absorption is closely related to its particle size. By controlling the particle size of ceramsite, on the one hand, it helps to increase the density of ceramsite when preparing sound barriers and exert the sound absorption ability of ceramsite. On the other hand, it also helps to optimize the sound absorption range of ceramsite and broaden the application of ceramsite in sound barriers. However, it is not easy to control the particle size of ceramsite during the firing process. During the firing process, the particle size of ceramsite is often affected by many factors such as the moisture content of the soil source, the metal content in the soil source, the granulation speed, the feeding speed, the diameter of the granulator and even the calcination conditions. In this scheme, the iron content and aluminum content of the classified soil source are controlled. Since the iron element in the soil can be used as a natural binder, the cohesion and compressive strength of the adobe particles are improved. The synergistic aluminum element can improve the expansion performance and shear capacity of the soil. By adjusting the iron content of the classified soil source to 5% to 8% and the aluminum content to 1% to 19%, the iron and aluminum elements in the soil source are controlled, so that the iron content and aluminum content in the precursor adobe can effectively optimize the binding force between soil particles, avoid the particles from being broken due to mechanical stress (such as pelletizer disc friction, centrifugal force), and also avoid the situation of adhering to the inside of the pelletizer, thereby effectively regulating the size of small-particle ceramsite in conjunction with the pelletizer parameters. In addition, the control of the iron content and aluminum content is also helpful to optimize the bulk density of small-particle ceramsite, thereby further optimizing the comprehensive performance of small-particle ceramsite; at the same time, this scheme also regulates the moisture content in the mixed soil source, by controlling the mixed The moisture content of the soil source after combination is 20%-30%. This scheme helps to avoid the prepared precursor adobe from being crushed or sticky in the pelletizer, and at the same time, it cooperates with the pelletizer parameters to control the particle size of small-particle ceramsite; at the same time, it avoids sticking into agglomerates or affecting the weight of small-particle ceramsite during the calcination process, thereby affecting the quality of small-particle ceramsite; after regulating the moisture content of the soil source and the iron content and aluminum content, this scheme comprehensively considers various parameters for preparing adobe particles, including the disc diameter, the angle between the disc axis and the plumb line direction, the pelletizer speed and the feeding speed. In a large number of experiments, the researchers found that the disc diameter will affect the material distribution; the angle between the disc axis and the plumb line direction will affect the material movement trajectory, and the pelletizer speed can represent the centrifugal force. The relationship between gravity and the feed speed is to regulate the balance between the two. The feeding speed will affect the nucleation density of the precursor adobe. In formulas K1 and K2, this scheme comprehensively considers the interaction of the above factors. Through multi-parameter coupling constraints, the coordinated optimization of the pelletizer process parameters and the soil source properties (such as iron content, aluminum content, and moisture content) is achieved. When 0.25≤K1≤0.4 and 0.55≤K2≤0.8, the small-sized ceramsite prepared by this scheme has a good particle size gradation and has good absorption capacity for noise in different frequency bands such as 125Hz and 250Hz (when used for sound baffles with a thickness greater than 45mm, the noise absorption coefficient of 125Hz is greater than 0.3, and the noise absorption coefficient of 125Hz is greater than 0.6).

[0063] As some cases, in step S1, the method for adjusting the iron / aluminum content of the classified soil source is to add iron / aluminum compounds to the classified soil source or to add low iron / aluminum content soil of the corresponding type of soil after classification. The low iron content soil source here refers to a soil source with an iron content of less than 5%, and the low aluminum content soil source refers to a soil source with an aluminum content of less than 15%.
[0064] As some preferred cases, the iron content of the soil source after adjustment and classification is 5% to 8%, and the aluminum content is 1% to 19%.

[0122] Test Method
[0123] Ceramic aggregate was mixed with water, cement and latex powder in a ratio of 6:1:0.15 to prepare a 50 mm thick ceramic aggregate sound-absorbing board, which was installed in the ceramic aggregate metal sound barrier structure with the air layer thickness of 54.5 mm behind it. The sound absorption coefficients at 125 Hz and 250 Hz were measured according to the standard "Measurement of Sound Absorption in Acoustic Reverberation Chambers" (GB / T20247-2006).
[0124] The test results are shown in Table 1
[0125] Table 1
[0126]
[0127]
[0128]
[0129] It can be observed from Examples 1-11 and Comparative Examples 1-8 that Example 1-11 exhibits better comprehensive sound absorption capabilities at 125 Hz and 250 Hz than Comparative Examples 1-8, indicating that the preparation method proposed in this scheme can effectively absorb sound waves in different frequency bands in railway noise, thereby broadening the application of expanded clay in railway sound baffles.
[0130] First, it can be observed from Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-4 that when the moisture content or iron / aluminum content in the comparative examples does not meet the requirement that the soil source moisture content after mixing is 20%-30% (the clay moisture content is 18-22%, the sludge moisture content is 28-32%, and the remaining soil source moisture content is less than 2%), the soil source iron content is 5% to 8%, and the aluminum content is 1%-19%, Comparative Examples 1-4 all exhibit a comprehensive sound absorption capacity far lower than that of Example 1. This may be because when the moisture content of any one of the soil sources is higher than the set moisture content (the clay moisture content is 18-22%, the sludge moisture content is 28-32%, and the remaining soil source moisture content is less than 4-2%) (Comparative Examples 1 and 2), it is impossible to cooperate with the granulator to successfully prepare small-particle ceramsite, nor is it possible to control the particle size of the small-particle ceramsite. Therefore, the average particle size of Comparative Examples 1 and 2 is significantly worse than that of Example 1, and the sound absorption capacity is also worse than that of Example 1. At the same time, Comparative Examples 3-4 that do not meet the iron / aluminum ratio may affect the bonding ability of the soil and the mechanical properties of the particles, thereby affecting the performance of small-particle ceramsite. Therefore, Comparative Examples 3-4 exhibit weaker sound absorption performance and worse bulk density.
[0131] In Example 1 and Comparative Example 5, it can be observed that when the particle size of the precursor adobe is 5-10 mm, the average particle size of Comparative Example 5 is greatly affected, and the sound absorption capacity is also significantly weaker than that of Example 1. This may be because the 0.4-4.75 mm precursor adobe serves as the basis of the adobe particles, and can better respond to the process parameters of the pelletizer in the subsequent pelletizing process, thereby achieving precise control of the particle size of small-particle ceramsite. When the particle size of the precursor adobe is 5-10 mm, the conditions of the pelletizer will not be able to achieve effective control of the precursor adobe, thereby affecting the performance of Comparative Example 5.
[0132] Sludge usually contains a large amount of organic matter. When the content exceeds 30%, a large amount of gas will be released during the calcination process, thereby affecting the pores and surface glaze layer of small-particle ceramsite. Therefore, it is necessary to control the mass proportion of the sludge. It can be observed from Example 1 and Comparative Example 6 that when the mass proportion of the sludge is 50%, the average particle size and comprehensive sound absorption capacity of Comparative Example 6 are greatly affected. Therefore, in the raw materials for preparing small-particle ceramsite, the mass proportion of the sludge should be controlled to be less than 30%.
[0133] On the basis of the above conditions, it can be observed from Example 1 and Comparative Examples 7-8 that even if the moisture content, iron content, aluminum content, silt mass ratio, and precursor adobe particle size in the soil source all meet the requirements, when any one of the conditions of K1 and K2 cannot be met, Comparative Examples 7-8 still cannot obtain the ideal small-particle ceramsite. This is because the parameters affecting the particle size of small-particle ceramsite are very complex. Only when the above conditions are combined with each other can the ideal results be obtained. In Comparative Examples 7-8, K1 and K2 cannot be met, so Comparative Examples 7-8 cannot simultaneously achieve absorption of 125Hz and 250Hz.
[0134] In Examples 1-9, the present scheme further optimizes the parameters in K1 and K2. It can be observed that in Examples 1-3, as the disc diameter gradually increases, the sound absorption coefficient of the small-particle ceramsite at 250 Hz gradually increases. In Examples 1, 4, and 5, the increase in the angle φ between the disc axis and the plumb line direction is accompanied by an increase in the 125 Hz sound absorption coefficient. The increase in the granulator speed is also accompanied by an enhancement of the 125 Hz sound absorption capacity (Examples 1, 6, and 7). The increase in the feed speed Q can also bring about the optimization of the 125 Hz sound absorption capacity (Examples 1, 8, and 9). After comprehensively considering the sound absorption performance of the small-particle ceramsite at 125 Hz and 250 Hz, from Examples 1-9, the present scheme preferably satisfies the following conditions: 0.3≤K1≤0.4, 0.6≤K2≤0.8, wherein 2≤d<3, 25°≤φ≤35°, 0.4≤v≤0.9, and 8≤Q≤15.
[0135] In Example 10, this solution further optimizes the mass proportion of sludge in the precursor adobe. It can be observed from Examples 1 and 10 that Example 1 exhibits better sound absorption capacity than Example 10. This may be because when the mass proportion of sludge in the precursor adobe is less than 25%, it helps to further optimize the internal pore structure of small-particle ceramsite and improve the sound absorption performance of small-particle ceramsite.
[0136] The effect of calcination temperature on the performance of small-particle ceramsite is discussed in Examples 1 and 11. When the calcination temperature is selected from 1000°C to 1200°C and the calcination time is selected from 80 to 180 minutes, Example 1 exhibits better sound absorption performance than Example 11.
