[0050] Effect of different calcium oxide addition amounts on ammonia gas collection amount: Calcium oxide addition (mass percentage of aluminum dross) 3% 5% 8% 10% Ammonia gas collection (kg / t aluminum dross) 8.5 10.2 11.5 12.0 From the above table data, it can be seen that with the increase of calcium oxide addition amount, the ammonia gas collection amount gradually increases. When the calcium oxide addition amount is 8%, the ammonia gas collection amount reaches 11.5kg / t of aluminum ash, and when it continues to increase to 10%, the ammonia gas collection amount increases by a smaller margin. This is because calcium oxide can react with acidic substances in aluminum ash, promote the reaction of aluminum nitride with water, and thus release more ammonia gas, but when the calcium oxide addition amount exceeds a certain range, the reaction tends to be saturated, and the ammonia gas collection amount increases by a smaller margin.

[0051] Effect of different water addition amounts on brick embryo forming quality: From the above table data, it can be seen that when the water addition amount is 20%, the brick embryo compressive strength is the highest, reaching 40MPa. If the water addition amount is too small, the material mixing is uneven, the brick embryo forming is difficult, and the compressive strength is low; if the water addition amount is too large, it will cause the brick embryo to evaporate too much water during the drying process, resulting in cracks and a decrease in compressive strength. Therefore, the water addition amount is controlled within the range of 10%-25%, which can ensure that the brick embryo has good forming quality, and 20% is the best addition amount.

[0052] Effect of different firing temperatures on harmful substance removal rate: From the above table data, it can be seen that with the increase of firing temperature, the removal rates of harmful substances such as sulfur, ammonia, nitrogen, and fluoride gradually increase. At 1300℃, the removal rates of various harmful substances all reach a high level, and when the temperature continues to rise to 1400℃, the removal rate increases by a smaller margin. Considering energy consumption and removal effect comprehensively, the firing temperature of 1200-1400℃ can meet the process requirements, and 1300℃ is a relatively optimal temperature.

[0053] Effect of using or not using waste heat on energy consumption: The above table data shows the energy consumption of using tunnel kiln calcination waste gas and cooling zone waste heat and not using waste heat. The results show that the energy consumption per unit product is 150kWh / t of aluminum ash when using waste heat, and the energy consumption is 250kWh / t of aluminum ash when not using waste heat. Using waste heat can reduce energy consumption by 40%, significantly reducing production cost, and reflecting the energy-saving advantage of the process of the present application.

[0054] Influence of different stirring speeds on mixing uniformity: Mixing uniformity is an important index to measure the mixing effect of materials, and the smaller the standard deviation is, the more uniform the mixing is. The above data show that when the stirring speed reaches 250 rpm, the mixing uniformity no longer improves obviously, and therefore, the stirring speed of 200-300 rpm can ensure the mixing effect while avoiding excessive energy consumption.

[0055] It can be seen from the above comparative experimental data that the treatment process of the application can effectively improve the ammonia gas collection amount, ensure the brick embryo forming quality, efficiently remove harmful substances and reduce energy consumption under the reasonable control of the parameters such as the calcium oxide and water addition amount, firing temperature and stirring speed, and has significant beneficial effects.

[0056] The preferred embodiments of the application are described in detail above, but the application is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge of those skilled in the art without departing from the purpose of the application.

Water is sprayed in the first stage to absorb the ammonia gas to form ammonia water. Sulfuric acid solution is sprayed in the second stage to react with the ammonia water to form ammonium sulfate. The ammonium sulfate solution is collected and subjected to evaporation, crystallization, filtration, and drying to obtain the ammonium sulfate product. Brick making steps: The mixed materials are transported from the discharge port of the closed mixing equipment to the 1300T static pressure brick making equipment, where they are pressed under a pressure of 100-150MPa to form brick embryos, which are then stacked by an automatic brick stacking machine; Fermentation step: The stacked bricks are transported to the fermentation kiln, where the residual heat from the tunnel kiln cooling zone is used to heat the fermentation kiln. The temperature inside the kiln is maintained at 110-120°C through temperature monitoring and regulation devices. The fermentation is carried out for 6-8 hours to further promote the reaction between aluminum nitride and water. Drying step: The fermented bricks are stacked again by the stacking machine and then enter the drying kiln through the transmission track of the drying kiln. The tunnel kiln calcination exhaust gas is used as a heat source and dried at about 150℃ for about 12 hours to reduce the moisture content of the bricks to less than 1%. Firing steps: The dried bricks are transported to the tunnel kiln via the tunnel kiln's transmission track. The natural gas heating device is turned on when the furnace is started. When the temperature in the kiln reaches 400°C, the natural gas heating device is turned off. The residual aluminum and aluminum nitride in the bricks react with oxygen to produce self-sustaining heat, raising the kiln temperature to 1200-1400°C and maintaining this temperature for 2-3 hours. This removes harmful substances such as sulfur, ammonia, nitrogen, and fluoride in the aluminum ash, increases the alumina content, and produces high-aluminum clinker. Cooling and packaging steps: The high-alumina clinker moves along the conveyor track to the tunnel kiln cooling zone, naturally cools to room temperature, and then is crushed according to customer requirements or directly packaged for sale.
