In ironmaking production, the content of calcium oxide, magnesium oxide, total iron, potassium, sodium, zinc and other items in gravity ash, cyclone ash, bag dust and other dust ash needs to be determined periodically, and the detection results are increasingly valued by ironmaking plants. For the determination of silicon dioxide, calcium oxide and magnesium oxide in dust ash, mainly the methods such as spectrophotometry, volumetry and ICP spectrometry are used for determination, and there are problems such as mismatch between the method and the content of the measured substance, the need for multiple methods for joint determination, slow analysis speed, and few standard samples of dust ash on the market, which brings inconvenience to daily detection.

The sample is carbon-free by high-temperature calcination, and is prepared into a glass sheet by melting. The analysis principle and performance of the X-ray fluorescence spectrometer are fully mastered, and dust ash quality control samples are self-made to draw a calibration curve. The determination of SiO2, CaO and MgO in dust ash is completed by determining the X-ray fluorescence intensity of silicon, calcium and magnesium of the molten glass sheet. The method is simple in operation, short in process, accurate in result, and can more scientifically guide production. SUMMARY

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the present application adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] The present application is a detection method for determining silicon dioxide, calcium oxide and magnesium oxide in dust ash, comprising the following steps:

[0008] (2) 7.000g of mixed flux is weighed to 0.0005g, and is placed in a porcelain crucible or glass dish; then 0.500g of the calcined sample is accurately weighed and placed in the porcelain crucible or glass dish, and is accurately weighed to 0.0002g, and is fully stirred with a glass rod, and is then transferred into a yellow-white gold crucible, and 1-2mL of ammonium iodide solution is dropped;

[0009] (3) In the melting furnace at 1050±10℃, the melting time is 110-130s for pre-melting, 690-750s for swinging, and the sample is cooled and demolded to prepare the glass sheet to be measured;

[0010] (4) The prepared glass sheet sample to be measured is placed in the sample box of the X fluorescence spectrometer, and the X-ray fluorescence intensity of silicon, calcium and magnesium is measured under the set instrument analysis parameters, and the content is obtained by linear regression, multiplied by the burn loss rate, and the content of each element in the sample is obtained.

[0011] Further, the mixed flux is specifically LiB4O7:LiBO2=67:33.

[0012] Further, the particle size of the fly ash sample in step (1) is 0.075mm.

[0013] Further, the sample after calcination is weighed to the constant weight, and the burn loss rate is calculated, and the burn loss rate k=the mass of the sample after calcination / the mass of the sample before calcination.

[0014] Further, the surface of the glass sheet sample to be measured in step (3) is free of bubbles, cracks and crystallization.

[0015] Further, the X fluorescence spectrometer in step (4) is an X fluorescence spectrometer provided with a scanning channel or a fixed channel of silicon, calcium and magnesium.

[0016] Further, the calibration work curve in step (4) is obtained by using steps (1)-(4), selecting five standard samples with content gradient, and selecting the same type of fly ash control sample, and drawing the calibration work curve of the content of the analyzed elements in the standard sample and the control sample and the X-ray fluorescence intensity, so as to obtain the content of the analyzed elements in the sample to be measured.

[0017] Further, the content of silicon dioxide, calcium oxide and magnesium oxide in the fly ash is calculated by the calibration work curve; according to the drawn calibration work curve, the content of silicon dioxide, calcium oxide and magnesium oxide in the fly ash is obtained, and the content of each component is multiplied by the burn loss rate to obtain the final result of silicon dioxide, calcium oxide and magnesium oxide in the fly ash to be measured.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial technical effects of the present application are:

[0019] (1) Before the fly ash sample is melted, the carbon is removed by calcining at 650℃±10℃ for 2h, and the burn loss rate is calculated, so that the carbon can be removed at a suitable temperature and time, and the sample is not easy to be melted due to too high temperature.

[0020] (2) In drawing the calibration work curve, the standard sample and the self-made quality control sample are combined to draw the curve, the matrix effect is reduced, and the problem of lack of on-site fly ash standard sample is solved.

[0021] (3) The glass fusion piece-X fluorescence spectrum method is used to accurately determine the contents of silicon dioxide, calcium oxide and magnesium oxide in fly ash, and the determination range can meet the on-site requirements. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] 3. The fusion piece was melted in a 1050℃ melting furnace. The melting time was pre-melting for 120s, swinging for 720s, and standing for 10s. After the melting was completed, the melting furnace was opened, the yellow-white gold crucible was taken out, the molten material was shaken evenly, and then it was placed to cool and demolded.

[0027] 4. The prepared glass piece without air bubbles, cracks or crystals was placed in an X-ray fluorescence spectrometer sample box with a scanning channel or a silicon, calcium and magnesium fixed channel. The X-ray fluorescence intensity was measured under the set instrument analysis parameters.

[0028] 5. According to different content gradients, 12 standard samples and 6 different types of fly ash control samples were selected. According to steps 1, 2, 3 and 4, the measured silicon, calcium and magnesium X-ray fluorescence intensity was taken as the ordinate, and the contents of silicon dioxide, calcium oxide and magnesium oxide were taken as the abscissa. The calibration work curve was drawn, and the calculation formula was obtained.

[0029] 6. According to the drawn calibration working curve, the content of silicon dioxide, calcium oxide and magnesium oxide in the fly ash is obtained, and the final result is multiplied by the burning loss rate to obtain the content of silicon dioxide, calcium oxide and magnesium oxide in the fly ash sample to be measured.
