Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fly ash treatment, in particular to a method for treating refractory organic matter in fly ash based on electrocatalysis-ozone coupling. Background Art

[0002] Incineration fly ash, a waste product generated during the incineration process, is primarily composed of inorganic salts (chlorides and sulfates), heavy metals (such as lead and cadmium), and refractory organic compounds (such as dioxins and polychlorinated biphenyls). Organic contaminants in fly ash easily combine with soluble salts, resulting in reduced product purity during waste salt recovery. Thermal decomposition of these organic contaminants can even generate secondary pollutants, hindering the harmlessness and resource utilization of fly ash. However, the removal of these organic contaminants presents two major challenges: first, their complex molecular structure and high chemical bond energy make them difficult to completely destroy using conventional oxidation technologies; second, the complex matrix of high salt content and multiple metal ions in fly ash easily reacts with oxidants, significantly reducing degradation efficiency. Therefore, developing efficient treatment technologies for refractory organic contaminants in fly ash is both an urgent environmental safety issue and a key prerequisite for the clean recovery of waste salt.

[0003] Currently, the main treatment methods for refractory organic matter in fly ash include: wet chemical oxidation, high-temperature melting vitrification, and physical adsorption. Wet chemical oxidation often uses a strong acid / strong base system for leaching treatment, but it has problems such as low reaction efficiency and easy secondary pollution. Although high-temperature melting technology can achieve thermal decomposition of organic matter, the energy consumption is as high as over 1400°C and it is easy to cause heavy metal volatilization. The adsorption method often uses materials such as activated carbon to enrich pollutants, but it cannot achieve complete mineralization of organic matter. The biodegradation method developed in recent years is limited by the tolerance of microorganisms to highly toxic environments. In actual application, the degradation cycle is as long as 30 days or more. The above methods generally have defects such as incomplete treatment, high operating costs, or secondary environmental risks.

[0004] Advanced oxidation technology (AOPs) can generate strong oxidative free radicals (such as OH, E 0=2.8V) and has become an effective means of degrading difficult-to-degrade organic matter. Traditional Fenton method, photocatalytic oxidation and other technologies face problems such as easy catalyst deactivation and low light energy utilization in fly ash treatment. Although ozone oxidation has strong oxidizing ability, it has poor selectivity for non-polar organic matter such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons when used alone, and the ozone mass transfer efficiency restricts the reaction kinetics. Electrocatalysis-ozone coupling technology is a new advanced oxidation technology that combines electrocatalysis and ozone oxidation. It uses a carbon cathode to electroreduced O2 to generate H2O2 under power, which then undergoes an ozonation reaction with O3 to generate hydroxyl radicals with strong oxidizing properties, thereby non-selectively and deeply degrading organic pollutants. At the same time, micro-eddies can be formed on the surface of the electrocatalytic electrode to enhance gas-liquid-solid three-phase mass transfer, which is suitable for the deep mineralization of organic pollutants in fly ash slurry systems, providing a solution to the problems of low oxidation efficiency and high energy consumption of existing technologies.

[0005] The document "Wang Zhaojia, Qin Yu, Gu Jun, et al. Research progress in dioxin control technology of fly ash from municipal solid waste incineration [J]. Environmental Engineering, 2021, 39(10):116-123.DOI:10.13205 / j.hjgc.202110016." discloses that the participation of ozone in the catalytic degradation of organic pollutants can effectively improve the degradation efficiency of organic matter. Wang et al. studied the degradation of dioxins by O3-coupled copper-based and manganese-based modified vanadium catalysts, and found that the addition of ozone helps to improve the degradation of low-chlorinated dioxins. Chen et al. studied the reaction of ozone-assisted supported CuO catalytic oxidation of chlorobenzene and found that the addition of ozone can effectively reduce the activation energy of chlorobenzene decomposition and promote the reaction. Although the above documents record that the ozone-metal catalyst system can improve the degradation efficiency of organic matter, it does not disclose information about the ozone-electrocatalyst system.

[0006] Chinese invention patent CN116135796A discloses a ring-shaped carbon fiber electrode electrocatalytic-ozone coupling device and wastewater treatment method. The device includes a reaction vessel, a sealing cover is provided on the top of the reaction vessel, the bottom of the reaction vessel is connected to an ozone generator, and a water inlet pipe is provided in the reaction vessel. A carbon fiber anode plate and a carbon fiber C-PTFE cathode plate are provided on the outside of the water inlet pipe; the carbon fiber anode plate and the carbon fiber C-PTFE cathode plate are annular electrodes connected end to end. The ozone generator is turned on at the same time as the wastewater enters the reaction vessel from the water inlet; an electrolyte is added to the reaction vessel; a DC power supply is turned on, and current passes through the carbon fiber C-PTFE cathode plate and the carbon fiber anode plate, forming a loop with the wastewater in the reaction vessel, coupling ozone to treat the wastewater. Although the patent records the use of an electrocatalytic-ozone coupling device to treat wastewater, wastewater treatment is different from fly ash treatment, and the above treatment effect still needs to be improved.
