TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of comprehensive utilization of resources, and particularly relates to a seaweed waste residue resource recycling method. BACKGROUND
[0002] Seaweed gum is a kind of food gum extracted from natural seaweed. Seaweed gum is derived from the extract of seaweed. Important commercial seaweed gums include carrageenan, agar, and agar from red algae. Agar and carrageenan, and alginate are the three most widely used seaweed gums in the world, and they have a wide range of applications in food industry, medical industry, daily chemical industry, and biological engineering. The main production processes of carrageenan include alkali treatment, washing, acidification and bleaching, gum extraction, gelation, cutting, freezing and drying, etc. The most commonly used method for gum extraction is constant temperature water bath extraction, and the extraction temperature is usually between 90-95℃. High temperature can promote the dissolution of seaweed, break down its internal fiber structure, accelerate the dissolution of internal gum, and improve the yield. The main equipment for providing heat is an industrial boiler. The most commonly used method for gelation is squeezing and filtering, and perlite filter aid is used to help the gum filter out, so during the production of carrageenan, perlite waste and insoluble fiber waste, called seaweed mud or seaweed waste, will be generated. The main components of perlite waste are SO2, Al2O3, CaO, K2O, Na2O, Fe2O3, and H2O, among which the mass ratio of SO2 is about 70%, the mass ratio of Al2O3 is about 12%, and the mass ratio of H2O is about 5%. Perlite is mainly composed of high content of amorphous spherical glass SO2, with very high fineness and large specific surface area, so it has high volcanic ash activity and can improve the early strength of concrete. Therefore, perlite is a commonly used mineral additive for early strength and high strength concrete, and the compressive strength and durability of concrete mixed with perlite are significantly improved. Therefore, the perlite filter material in seaweed waste is restored to activity after high-temperature calcination and ultra-fine grinding, and is mixed into high-C3S-content Portland cement clinker as a mineral additive, which is one of the methods for proportioning early strength and high strength Portland cement. SO2, as the acid anhydride of silicic acid, can also be directly used as a main component of Portland cement raw materials to produce cement clinker; insoluble fiber waste is mainly composed of red algal cell wall components, including cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, chitosan, and plant wax. Insoluble fiber waste has the characteristics of high volatile matter, low ignition temperature, and fast combustion speed, but also has the characteristics of high incombustible inorganic matter content and low calorific value, and can be used as auxiliary fuel for industrial boilers.

[0003] The prior art "circulating fluidized bed boiler with double furnace structure" aims to provide a boiler scheme for burning two kinds of fuel (coal and waste residue), the combustion nature is oxidation reaction, due to the difference of the fuel, the oxidation reaction rate is different, the air ratio concentration is different, the continuous combustion conditions are different, since the combustion temperature is the main means to control the combustion process, under the condition that the fuel and oxidant ratio is determined, the combustion process is controlled by arranging the heating surface to reduce the furnace temperature. Due to the difference of the fuel, the design of the heating surface is also different, the prior art adopts the scheme of two independent furnaces to solve the above problems, two independent furnaces are coal-fired furnace and waste residue incinerator furnace, two furnaces are arranged with heating surface and are connected at the upper part, the main shortcomings are: first, the waste residue incinerator furnace only discloses the technical features of "waste residue incinerator furnace is arranged with waste residue feeding port, waste residue discharging port and incinerator air supply chamber, waste residue incinerator furnace adopts two-stage combustion design, the first stage combustion adopts turbulent pyrolysis incineration, the combustion temperature is 800-900℃, the second stage combustion is cyclone type mixing chamber combustion, which makes the unburned gas burn out and reaches the high temperature combustion of 900-1000℃", since turbulent flow and cyclone flow are undoubtedly two kinds of gas flow modes, how does the waste residue incinerator furnace arranged with waste residue feeding port, waste residue discharging port and incinerator air supply chamber realize the two kinds of gas flow modes? Second, since the coal-fired furnace and the waste residue incinerator furnace are connected at the upper part, since the volatile matter, moisture and fixed carbon components of the waste residue change greatly, the volatile matter can be regarded as a gas fuel, and the fixed carbon can be regarded as a solid fuel, if the waste residue incinerator furnace has a high volatile matter concentration and a low excess air ratio, the heat of the volatile matter gas combustion is insufficient to make up for the heat loss of the heating surface, so that the fresh combustible gas cannot reach the ignition point and causes extinguishment, the high temperature flue gas of the coal-fired furnace ignites the premixed gas of the combustible gas and air in the waste residue incinerator furnace from the upper part of the waste residue incinerator furnace, which causes backfire, and the premixed gas of the combustible gas and air reaches the explosion mixture concentration limit, which may cause explosion accident; Third, the coal-fired furnace and the waste residue incinerator furnace are connected at the upper part and share a flue gas discharge channel, the pressures of the high temperature flue gas generated by the two furnaces are definitely different, assuming that the positive pressure generated by the coal-fired furnace is higher, the airflow in the waste residue incinerator furnace cannot flow and "hold up", that is, the incinerator air supply chamber cannot deliver air to the furnace, and the flame in the incinerator will be extinguished, and similarly, if the flue gas pressure of the waste residue incinerator furnace is higher than that of the coal-fired furnace, it will also cause the flame in the coal-fired furnace to be extinguished.
[0004] The prior art two "high-efficiency furaldehyde waste residue boiler" is to complete the combustion of furaldehyde waste residue boiler by technical transformation of hand-fired furnace, but the fixed grate, residue discharge port, air supply structure, heating surface, boiler drum, boiler component, flue structure cannot be changed, although the combustion mode is partially changed to layer combustion and suspension combustion by increasing pre-drying and secondary air supply, the adaptability to waste residue combustion is improved, the problem of "frequent opening of furnace door during filling" is solved, that is, frequent adjustment of excess air coefficient, so that the stability of combustion is improved. The prior art two boiler is a double drum transverse type with fixed grate structure, which is improved on the basis of the existing furaldehyde waste residue boiler, and the structure is improved on the basis of the hand-fired furnace structure. The furnace volume heat load has been determined, the residence time of fuel particles in the furnace is insufficient, the fixed carbon particles of the fuel particles, that is, the volatile loss of the waste residue, are incompletely combusted in the furnace and fall and accumulate on the fixed grate. The fuel particles on the fixed grate are quickly extinguished because the air supply is room temperature air and does not reach the ignition temperature (high-temperature flue gas is discharged after heat exchange by water cooling wall and convection tube bundle to directly dry the waste residue, and an air preheater is not designed), and cannot continue to burn on the fixed grate. If the residue accumulates too much, it needs to be cleaned manually, otherwise the air inlet will be blocked.
[0005] The prior art three "impact type airflow pulverizer and powder pulverizing method" is to efficiently produce toner or colored resin powder for toner used in image forming method in electrostatic copying technology. An impact type airflow pulverizer uses jet airflow to convey powder raw materials, so that the powder raw materials collide with the impact part and are pulverized by the impact force. The airflow jet increases the secondary air inlet to balance the resin powder concentration, so as to avoid the resin powder from being too high to be adhered to the surface of the impact plate after colliding with the impact plate. However, it is not suitable for preparing high-activity, superfine and spherical mineral admixtures required by quick-hardening and high-strength Portland cement, because there is moisture in the air, which reacts with the mineral admixtures to harden into cement stone. SUMMARY
[0006] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of the present application is to provide a seaweed waste residue resource recycling method, characterized by: step one, cement clinker is a collection of multiple minerals, and these minerals are composed of four main oxides CaO, SO2, Al2O3 and Fe2O3. The main measures to produce quick-hardening and high-strength Portland cement are: increasing the C3S content and selecting the best parameters, superfine grinding and maximizing the control of particle size distribution, improving the particle morphology, and mineral doping to obtain high activity. Quick-hardening and high-strength cement concrete generally uses No. 525 or higher grade Portland cement and ordinary Portland cement, and at the same time requires the cement to have a high C3S content and fineness (specific surface area 3500-4000 cm 3The characteristics of the clinker, so in the production control, not only to control the content of each oxide in the clinker, but also to control the ratio between the oxide, i.e. the rate value to obtain a higher C3S content; improve the morphology of cement particles is also a method to improve the strength of the cement stone itself, using spheroidization of cement is an important means to achieve high fluidity, high strength and high durability of the concrete, spheroidization of cement is 3-40 μm particles, the particle size distribution range is narrow, the hydration heat release rate peak and total heat is low, the water demand of hydration is small, the water-cement ratio of the preparation of concrete is low, the strength is higher, the spheroidal particle morphology of cement is obtained by high-speed airflow crushing. The circulating fluidized bed boiler can also be considered as a kind of airflow crushing device, the seaweed waste residue is put into the circulating fluidized bed boiler for combustion to recover heat energy, the combustion process is crushed by airflow to recover silica ash slag, and further high-speed airflow crushing can prepare high-activity, superfine, spherical mineral admixture required for fast-hardening and high-strength portland cement.

[0007] Step two, primary combustion air passes through the air chamber at the bottom of the furnace, through the water-cooled air distribution plate into the furnace, and secondary air enters the furnace at the furnace converging section. The fuel burns and releases heat in the furnace, and the generated heat is cooled and absorbed by the water-cooled walls around the furnace and the convection evaporation heating surface at the top of the furnace. The remaining part is absorbed by the convection evaporation heating surface arranged at the tail part. The main fuel is biomass particles, and the auxiliary fuel is seaweed waste residue particles. The converging section divides the furnace into two parts, the upper part is the dilute phase zone, and the lower part is the dense phase zone. The seaweed waste residue particles are composed of combustible insoluble fibers and perlite inert materials, which are sent to the dense phase zone by a screw conveyor. The perlite inert material acts as a bed material to provide a stable high-temperature hot storage layer for the furnace, which is a stable ignition source. The volatile matter in the newly added fuel and the unburned coke sent back by the solid particle return device are fluidized and combusted by the primary air flow. The purpose of designing the furnace converging section is also to increase the probability of mechanical friction between the coarse perlite particles and the furnace wall. The high-temperature hot storage layer will also cause the thermal stress caused by the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the waste residue particles during the heating process, the pressure when the volatile matter is precipitated, and the rupture of the C-C, C-H, and C-O bonds that form crystals, which will cause the particles to break rapidly. The fine particles formed by the above abrasion and crushing are carried out of the furnace by the fluidized gas flow, providing conditions for the preparation of high-activity, ultra-fine, and spherical perlite admixture. Biomass particles are input into the dilute phase zone, which is an oxygen-rich combustion area. The coke particles in the fuel are burned out in this area. By adjusting the flow ratio of primary air and secondary air according to the change of boiler load, biomass fuel and seaweed waste residue fuel can be burned in the dilute phase zone and the dense phase zone, and heat exchange and mass exchange can be completed.

Claims
1. A method for recycling and utilizing seaweed waste, characterized by: Step one: Cement clinker is a multi-mineral aggregate, composed of four main oxides: CaO, SO2, Al2O3, and Fe2O3. The main measures for producing rapid-hardening, high-strength silicate cement are: increasing C3S content and selecting optimal parameters, ultrafine grinding and maximizing control of particle size distribution, improving particle morphology, and mineral doping to obtain high activity. Rapid-hardening, high-strength cement concrete generally uses silicate cement of grade 525 or higher and ordinary silicate cement, while requiring the cement to have a high C3S content and fineness (specific surface area 3500–4000 cm³). 3 Due to the characteristics of / g), in production control, it is necessary not only to control the content of each oxide in the clinker, but also to control the ratio between each oxide, i.e., the ratio value, to obtain a higher C3S content. Improving the morphology of cement particles is also a way to improve the strength of cement stone itself. The heat energy can be recovered by burning seaweed waste in a circulating fluidized bed boiler. The silica ash can be recovered by being pulverized by airflow during the combustion process. Further high-speed airflow pulverization can prepare the high-activity, ultrafine, spherical mineral admixture required for fast-hardening and high-strength silicate cement. The designed circulating fluidized bed boiler for burning seaweed waste includes a main circulation loop and a tail flue. The main circulation loop includes a furnace, a gas-solid separator, and a solid particle return device. Solid particles undergo first-stage low-speed airflow pulverization and classification in the main circulation loop under the entrainment of the airflow. The solid particle return device is designed with a high-speed airflow pulverizer and a differential classifier, where solid particles undergo second-stage high-speed airflow pulverization and classification. The waste heat from the high-temperature flue gas discharged from the gas-solid separator is absorbed by the convective evaporation heating surfaces in the tail flue, namely the superheater, economizer, and air preheater. The convective evaporation heating surfaces generally adopt an upper and lower double steam drum structure, with the tube bundle heating surface expanded between the upper and lower steam drums. The steam-water mixture generated by the convective evaporation heating surfaces is sent to the boiler drum for steam-water separation. In the second step, primary combustion air enters the furnace through the air chamber at the bottom of the furnace and the water-cooled air distribution plate, while secondary air... The fuel enters the furnace at the converging section, where it burns and releases heat. The heat generated by combustion is cooled and absorbed by the water-cooled walls around the furnace and the convective evaporative heating surface at the top. The remaining heat is absorbed by the convective evaporative heating surface at the tail end. The main fuel is biomass pellets, and the auxiliary fuel is seaweed waste pellets. The seaweed waste pellets are composed of combustible insoluble fibers and perlite inert materials. They are fed into the dense phase zone by a screw conveyor. The volatile matter in the newly added fuel and the unburned coke returned by the solid particle return device are combusted here by the primary air fluidization. The biomass pellet fuel is fed into the dilute phase zone, which is an oxygen-rich combustion zone. The coke particles in the fuel are burned completely in this zone. The ratio of primary air to secondary air flow can be adjusted according to the boiler load changes, so that the biomass fuel and seaweed waste fuel can burn in the dilute and dense phase zones and complete heat and mass exchange.Step 3: The gas-solid separator is constructed of refractory bricks into two settling chambers. Coarse particles in the flue gas collide and separate, falling through airlock valve I and feed pipe I into the solid particle return device. Fine particles in the flue gas are transported through the tail flue to the bag filter for environmental treatment. The fine particles after gas-solid separation also fall through airlock valve II and feed pipe II into the solid particle return device. The solid particle return device consists of a high-speed airflow pulverizer and a differential classifier. The high-speed airflow pulverizer includes a cyclone classifier, steam ejector I, and steam ejector II. Steam ejector I and steam ejector... Both units II are designed with Laval nozzles, mixing chambers, and diffusers. Steam ejectors I and II are positioned opposite each other. High-speed jets carry coarse and fine particles from the flue gas, injecting them tangentially along the cyclone separator. This creates a circulation between the cyclone separator and the central cylinder, causing the particles to spiral downwards. This prolongs the residence time of the particles, increasing the probability of intense collisions. Combined with friction against the cylinder wall, this results in smaller particle sizes, smoother surfaces, and higher activity. After descending to the ash hopper, the airflow is deflected upwards by the shut-off valve III, causing the particles to be lifted and entrained by the airflow. The process achieves classification. Coarser particles are returned to the furnace via the air shut-off valve III, while finer particles are carried by the airflow into the differential classifier through the central cylinder. Step four: The differential classifier includes air shut-off valve IV, a lower body assembly, an upper body assembly, and an impeller rotor. The lower body assembly includes an outer cone hopper, an inner cone hopper, and an inner inclined tube. The upper body assembly includes a finished product pipe, a classification chamber, and a guide grid. The airflow flows upward through the channel formed by the outer and inner cone hoppers, is evenly distributed by the guide grid, and tangentially guided into the classification chamber. Inside the classification chamber, the airflow splits into two branches. The main branch is where the airflow passes through the blades of the impeller rotor. The air enters the inner cavity and is transported to the finished product collection bin via the finished product pipe; the auxiliary branch is returned to the furnace via the inner conical hopper, inner inclined pipe, and air shut-off valve IV. Adjusting the motor speed of air shut-off valve IV can distribute the airflow of the two branches, thereby adjusting the pneumatic energy of the main branch. The blades are designed as straight blades with a uniform cross-section, the guide vanes are stationary blades, and the impeller rotor blades are moving blades. The speed difference between the two and the inlet and outlet flow channel structure create variable friction and centrifugal force on the particles. That is, the more adjustable technical means there are, the narrower the particle size distribution range and the finer the particle size obtained through grading.
2. The method for recycling seaweed waste according to claim 1, characterized in that: The use of spheroidized cement is an important means of achieving high fluidity, high strength, and high durability in concrete. Spheroidized cement consists of particles between 3 and 40 μm in size, with a narrow particle size distribution. It has a low peak hydration heat release rate and low total heat release, resulting in low water demand for hydration. This leads to a low water-cement ratio and high strength in the concrete produced. Spheroidized cement particles are obtained through high-speed airflow pulverization. Circulating fluidized bed boilers can also be considered a type of airflow pulverization device.
3. The method for recycling seaweed waste according to claim 1, characterized in that: The converging section divides the furnace into upper and lower parts, distinguished by the solid fluidization state: the upper part is the dilute phase region, and the lower part is the dense phase region.
4. The method for recycling seaweed waste according to claim 1, characterized in that: Perlite inert material, as a bed material, provides a stable high-temperature incandescent heat storage layer in the furnace and serves as a stable ignition source.
5. The method for recycling seaweed waste according to claim 1, characterized in that: The purpose of designing the furnace constriction section is also to increase the probability of coarse perlite particles colliding with each other and mechanical friction with the furnace wall. The high-temperature hot regenerator layer will also cause the waste residue particles to break rapidly due to thermal stress caused by the temperature difference between the inside and outside during the heating process, or the pressure when volatiles are released, or the breaking and decomposition of the CC, CH, CO bonds that make up the crystals. The fine particles formed by the above abrasion and crushing effects are carried out of the furnace by the fluidized airflow, providing conditions for the preparation of highly active, ultrafine, spherical perlite admixtures.
6. The method for recycling seaweed waste according to claim 1, characterized in that: The working steam is accelerated through the Laval nozzle, reaching the speed of sound at the nozzle throat. The airflow continues to accelerate in the nozzle expansion section, and the supersonic airflow obtained at the outlet is injected into the mixing chamber. During this process, the pressure energy of the high-pressure working steam is converted into energy, and its outlet pressure drops, creating a negative pressure in the mixing chamber, which draws in the aforementioned particulate matter.
7. The method for recycling seaweed waste according to claim 1, characterized in that: The working steam and the inhaled particles flow in the mixing chamber, where they exchange momentum and energy, causing their velocities to gradually become equal. The mixed airflow decelerates and increases pressure in the diffuser, where a normal shock wave appears at its throat, causing the airflow pressure to rise sharply and its velocity to drop to subsonic speed. In its expansion section, the velocity further decreases and the pressure further increases, realizing the conversion of kinetic energy into pressure energy. Finally, the mixed airflow, carrying the high-temperature and high-pressure working steam, is ejected at high speed through the diffuser.
8. The method for recycling seaweed waste according to claim 1, characterized in that: The working principle of the differential classifier is to utilize the flow distribution characteristics of the high-speed airflow conveying branch pipeline: the flow rate of the closed pipeline branch is proportional to the pneumatic energy. By changing the flow rate of the airflow entering the impeller rotor, and in conjunction with the centrifugal force flow field and frictional force flow field formed by the impeller rotors with different speeds, the variable frictional force and centrifugal force are formed on the particles, thereby achieving cutting and classification according to the particle size requirements.
