Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of waste recycling and comprehensive utilization technology, and in particular to a method for preparing aerated concrete for waste photovoltaic-vanadium-titanium slag-lithium slag-based wall materials. Background Technology
[0002] To effectively reduce the raw material cost of autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC), solid waste is currently being used as a raw material. This achieves resource utilization of solid waste and reduces the production cost of AAC. Researchers are currently using steel slag, iron tailings, phosphogypsum, coal gangue, rice husk ash, ZSM-5 zeolite, and air-cooled slag as raw materials for AAC production. Although ordinary AAC has readily available raw materials, a simple manufacturing process, and low cost, it suffers from low compressive strength, moisture absorption, easy surface peeling, and inability to be hung, limiting its use to interior walls rather than exterior walls.
[0003] To address the aforementioned shortcomings, some manufacturers add ceramsite to aerated concrete. Adding lightweight ceramsite to aerated concrete not only strengthens the concrete's skeletal structure but also effectively maintains the advantages of aerated concrete, overcoming its common quality defects and fully utilizing its thermal insulation properties. This makes it a new type of high-efficiency wall material for self-insulating exterior wall cladding, destined for widespread application. The general method involves mixing ceramsite with other components (cement, lime, gypsum, foaming agent, water, etc.) to form a slurry, followed by processes such as foaming, static curing, and maintenance to produce ceramsite aerated concrete products. However, because ceramsite is a hollow, lightweight aggregate, it tends to float during mixing due to the high specific gravity of the slurry, resulting in uneven distribution and product defects. Furthermore, the low strength of ceramsite aggregate makes it prone to breakage during mixing, increasing its water absorption and reducing the product's thermal insulation performance. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of this, the purpose of this invention is to provide a method for preparing aerated concrete for waste photovoltaic-vanadium-titanium slag-lithium slag-based wall materials, so as to at least solve the problems of high water absorption, poor impermeability, and high energy consumption in the preparation of existing aerated concrete.
[0005] In a first aspect, embodiments of the present invention provide a method for preparing aerated concrete for use as a wall material based on waste photovoltaic-vanadium-titanium slag-lithium slag, comprising the following steps: Preparation of various powders: Lithium tailings are pretreated to obtain powder 1; calcium carbide slag and papermaking causticizing mud are mixed and pretreated to obtain powder 2. Powder 2 will be used as a raw material for the subsequent preparation of low-carbon powder 4 and non-fired ceramsite, and will also be used as a raw material for the subsequent preparation of mixed slurry; vanadium-titanium ore slag and ore slag are mixed and pretreated to obtain powder 3. Powder 3 will also be used as a raw material for the subsequent preparation of low-carbon powder 4 and non-fired ceramsite; waste photovoltaic panels are pretreated to obtain powder 41. After pretreatment of coal gangue and coal slime, powder 42 is obtained; powder 1, powder 2, powder 41, powder 42 and powder 3 are mixed in a mass ratio of (10~15):(60~77):(5~10):(3~5):(5~10) to obtain low-carbon powder 4; after pretreatment of phosphogypsum and lithium slag, powder 5 is prepared; after pretreatment of deactivated ZSM-5, powder 6 is prepared; powder 1 and powder 6 are mixed in a mass ratio of (1~3):1 to obtain powder 7.
[0006] Preparation of non-fired ceramsite: Take powder 2, powder 3, low-carbon powder 4, powder 5 and fast-dissolving sodium silicate in a mass ratio of (10~16):(60~77):(7~12):(4~8):(2~4) and mix for 60~120s to obtain a mixed dry material; add 16~20% of the total mass of the mixed dry material to the mixed dry material and stir to mix evenly. After standing for 3~5h to digest, grind with a stirring wheel for 120~180s, pour into a pelletizing pan to form spheres, cover the surface of the spheres with a thin film to keep them moist, and place them in an environment of 20±5℃ for natural curing for 22~26h. Then place them in an environment of 55~65℃ and 85~95% humidity for curing for 3~5 days. Then, place them in an environment of 20±5℃ for natural curing for 2~4 days, dry to constant weight, soak in an 8~10% mass fraction liquid paraffin solution for 30~50min, and dry to constant weight to obtain non-fired ceramsite.
[0007] In the preparation of non-fired ceramsite, on the one hand, a method of two-stage water addition and mixing followed by one-stage mixing and grinding is adopted to ensure the uniformity of the materials. The mixed dry materials are left to stand for 3-5 hours to allow the calcareous materials to fully digest, ensuring that internal stress will not be generated after pelletizing due to continued digestion of the calcareous materials, thus affecting the strength of the ceramsite. A curing system using room temperature natural curing and steam curing is adopted, resulting in lower energy consumption. Compared with the currently commonly used sintered and autoclaved ceramsite, this method saves a significant amount of energy. Furthermore, the prepared ceramsite has a low shrinkage rate and can bond tightly to the interface of concrete or autoclaved concrete.
[0008] Casting: Take powder 7, powder 2, low carbon powder 4 and powder 5 and mix them in a mass ratio of (55~70):(15~23):(9~12):(6~10) to obtain a mixed dry powder; take 53~65% of the total mass of the mixed dry powder and 50~55℃ warm water as the total water for casting. Add 50~55℃ warm water to the mixed dry powder and stir to mix evenly. Then add 35~40% of the total mass of the mixed dry powder and non-fired ceramic particles and mix evenly. Then add 50~55℃ warm water, 0.5~0.7‰ of the total mass of the mixed dry powder and 5~11‰ of the total water mass of the foam stabilizer, stir to mix evenly, and pour the resulting slurry into the mold. Vibrate the mold for 60~120s.
[0009] Concrete curing: The mixture slurry poured into the mold is subjected to aeration, static curing, pre-curing, green body cutting and high-temperature autoclaving to obtain ceramsite aerated concrete.
[0010] Secondly, embodiments of the present invention also provide aerated concrete, which is prepared using the preparation method described in the first aspect above.
[0011] The aerated concrete of this invention uses industrial solid waste to replace the raw materials used in the traditional autoclaved aerated concrete production—sand or fly ash, cement, lime, and gypsum. Specifically, it utilizes low-carbon powder prepared from steel industry solid waste (vanadium-titanium slag and slag), power industry solid waste (waste photovoltaic panels), coal-based solid waste (coal gangue and coal slime), non-ferrous metallurgical solid waste (lithium tailings), and chemical solid waste (carbide slag and papermaking causticizing mud). This powder combines the mineral composition and content characteristics of green low-carbon cement clinker to achieve a replacement for silicate cement clinker. The low-carbon powder has a significant carbon reduction effect. Its firing process incorporates coal gangue and coal slime containing a large amount of carbonaceous material, allowing the firing temperature to be lowered by more than 100°C compared to silicate cement clinker, reducing energy consumption by more than 10%. Simultaneously, the calcination process uses all solid waste raw materials, without using limestone, reducing CO2 emissions by more than 20%, significantly reducing enterprise production costs.
[0012] This invention, through specific crystalline phase structure design and control, enables the application of low-carbon powder made from high-temperature calcination products in the production of expanded clay aerated concrete (ECC). This allows the ECC green body to achieve higher physical and mechanical properties in a short time, ensuring the smooth formation of the EC green body. Its performance is significantly superior to existing ordinary silicate cement clinker. Simultaneously, the low-carbon powder of this invention also exhibits significantly lower alkali content (alkali content <0.50%, lower than GB / T 21372-2024 ≤0.60%), higher strength (3-day compressive strength ≥29.9 MPa, 28-day compressive strength ≥53.9 MPa, significantly higher than the 3-day compressive strength ≥22.0 MPa, 28-day compressive strength ≥42.5 MPa of PˑO42.5 ordinary silicate cement clinker in GB / T 21372-2024), and lower chloride ion content (≤0.05%, lower than GB / T 21372-2024). The excellent properties of low-heat cement clinker (≤0.06% chloride ion content and ≤206kJ / kg and ≤228kJ / kg hydration heat in 3 days, significantly lower than those in GB / T 21372-2024) are evident in its low-heat clinker. This allows for shorter construction cycles and is of great significance for road and bridge repair, building decoration, emergency construction and repair of municipal engineering projects, as well as for use as a material and wartime emergency reserve technology.
[0013] This invention, in the process of preparing high-temperature calcined products using calcareous materials (carbide slag and causticizing mud for papermaking), siliceous materials (lithium tailings, waste photovoltaic panels), and ferroaluminous materials (slag, vanadium-titanium slag, coal gangue, coal slime) as raw materials, achieves this by rationally controlling the particle size (specific surface area of 400~500 μm²). 2 The optimal combination of four conditions—calcination conditions (pressed into cakes to ensure uniform heating of the calcined product), calcination temperature (1150~1250℃), and holding time (30~40min)—allows for the calcined product to form a specific crystal phase structure (C2S, C3S, C3A, and C4AF), resulting in excellent early, middle, and late-stage performance. This allows it to replace silicate cement clinker. This invention enables targeted and stable control of the composition and content ratio of each mineral in the calcined product (C3S content ≥ 62.0%, C2S content ≥ 14.0%, C3A content ≥ 3.1%, C4AF content ≥ 9.9%). f (CaO content ≤ 1.5%), its performance is excellent and can reach and exceed that of existing silicate cement clinker.
[0014] In the preparation method of aerated concrete of the present invention, the deactivated siliceous raw material ZSM-5 meets the requirements of JC / T 622-2009 "Sand for Silicate Building Products", replacing the traditional requirement of river sand and fly ash in aerated concrete production, which can solve the problem of raw material shortage in aerated concrete production in some areas; the calcareous raw material prepared by using carbide slag and papermaking causticized white mud meets the technical requirements of "Quicklime for Silicate Building Products" (JC / T 621-2021), and its firing temperature reduces energy consumption by more than 10% compared with the preparation of quicklime.
[0015] The aerated concrete of this invention solves the problems of high water absorption, poor impermeability, inability to be hung, and short fire resistance limit of traditional aerated concrete. In the process of preparing ceramsite, a paraffin solution is used for surface treatment, which solves the problem of large slurry volume required for ceramsite in aerated concrete production. The use of a vibrating table to drive the mold of the poured ceramsite aerated concrete slurry can improve the uniformity of the distribution of ceramsite aggregate in the solidified slurry and ensure the overall performance of aerated concrete. The performance indicators of the prepared ceramsite are superior to the requirements of lightweight coarse aggregate density grade 700 in GB / T17431.1-2010 "Lightweight Aggregates and Their Test Methods Part 1: Lightweight Aggregates" in terms of compressive strength (≥13.69MPa, exceeding the standard requirement of ≥5.0MPa), absolute drying shrinkage (≤0.92mm / m, exceeding the standard requirement of ≤1.20 mm / m), softening coefficient (≥1.0, exceeding the standard requirement of ≥0.8), and boiling mass loss (≤4.6%, exceeding the standard requirement of ≤5.0). The performance indicators of the prepared ceramsite aerated concrete are also superior to the requirements of GB / T17431.1-2010 "Lightweight Aggregates and Their Test Methods Part 1: Lightweight Aggregates" in terms of compressive strength (≥4.7MPa, far exceeding the standard requirement of ≥3.5MPa) and dry density (≤602kg / m³). 3 Superior grade products meeting the standard have a weight of ≤625 kg / m³. 3 ), frost resistance (post-freezing strength ≥4.3MPa, meeting the standard requirements for superior grade), water absorption (≤36%, better than the standard requirement ≤40%), average pull-out force (≥2.8kN, far exceeding the standard requirement ≥2.5kN), single-point suspension force (≥941N, far exceeding the standard ≥900N), thermal conductivity [W / (m·K)] (≤0.15, better than the standard requirement ≤0.16), heat storage coefficient ... 2 In terms of strength grade CA3.5 products, the fire resistance limit of 120mm thick walls (≥2.76, which is better than the standard requirement of ≥2.60) and fire resistance limit of 120mm thick walls (≥4.4h, which is much higher than the standard requirement of ≥4h) is better than the requirements of CA3.5 products in JG / T 504-2016 "Aerated Concrete Blocks with Ceramsite".

As a wall material for industrial and civil buildings, it not only fully recycles and utilizes industrial solid waste, increasing its recycling value, but also solves the problem of raw material shortage in traditional aerated concrete production, effectively reducing the production cost of aerated concrete.

The aluminum powder has an active Al content ≥92%, a sieve residue of ≤2.5% on a 0.08 mm square hole sieve, a gas generation rate ≥81%, a gas generation time ≤24 min, and a hydrophilicity ≤20 s.
[0070] S11. The mixed slurry poured into the mold is subjected to 5 hours of gas generation, 5 hours of static curing, and 5 hours of pre-curing at 55℃. The green body is then cut and subjected to high-temperature autoclaving to obtain ceramsite aerated concrete. In this step, the high-temperature autoclaving treatment includes three stages: heating and pressurizing, constant temperature and pressure, and cooling and depressurizing. Heating and pressurizing involves heating to 195℃ and pressurizing to a saturated vapor pressure of 1.1 MPa over 3 hours; constant temperature and pressure involves curing at 195℃ and a saturated vapor pressure of 1.1 MPa for 8 hours; and cooling and depressurizing involves reducing the temperature and pressure to normal for 2 hours.
[0071] Using the non-fired ceramsite prepared in Example 2 as a sample, the following hydration mechanism tests were conducted: (1) XRD analysis Figure 1 X-ray diffraction patterns of non-fired ceramsite naturally cured at 1d, 3d, and 7d. Figure 1 The diffraction peak marked "3" at 10°~15° represents Ca(OH)₂, and it can be seen that the intensity of the diffraction peak first increases and then decreases. A strong Ca(OH)₂ diffraction peak appeared in the system during the first day of curing. This is because the hydration of powders 2 and 5 provided the system with a significant amount of Ca. 2+ OH - and SO4 2- This provides an alkaline environment for the reaction, promoting hydration. In this system, hydrated calcium aluminate and sulfate ions combine to form ettringite. After 3 days of curing, the Ca(OH)₂ content increases. This is because as C₂S and C₃S in the low-carbon powder continue to hydrate, the Ca(OH)₂ concentration increases, resulting in more OH⁻ ions appearing in the system. –However, after 7 days of curing, the Ca(OH)2 content decreased because powder 3 was reacted with Ca in an alkaline environment. 2+ The excitation causes some of the Ca(OH)2 to be consumed. As shown in the 25°~30° range, the diffraction peak of "2" is quartz, which is caused by the SiO2 in powder 3 that does not participate in the reaction. The fine quartz particles can act as micro-aggregates, which can improve the strength of the system. Figure 1 As shown in the 32°~35° range, the diffraction peak "1" represents ettringite. The diffraction peak intensity gradually increases, indicating an increased amount of ettringite. This is due to the hydration of C2S and C3S in low-carbon powder 4 with minerals such as active silica and active alumina in powder 3. In the later stages of curing, the diffraction peak intensity increases less significantly. This is because sodium silicate participates in the hydration reaction first, forming ettringite which covers the surface of powder 3 particles, thus hindering the hydration process to some extent. The ettringite in the system can serve as a source of early strength for the ceramsite. Figure 1 In the 1-day curing images, the diffraction peaks "4" and "5" corresponding to 34°~40° and 52°~58° represent C2S and C3S, respectively. In the early curing stage, C2S and C3S in the system participate in the hydration reaction, generating a large amount of hydration products. In the later curing stage, a large amount of C2S and C3S in the system are consumed, and the corresponding diffraction peaks disappear. Therefore, from... Figure 1 As can be seen from the data, the hydration products of non-fired ceramsite are mainly Ca(OH)2, ettringite, and anhydrite. In the early stage of curing, the main hydration products are Ca(OH)2 and a small amount of ettringite; in the later stage of curing, the main products are anhydrite, Ca(OH)2, and ettringite, with an increase in the amount of ettringite produced. Some of the active SiO2 in the system participates in the hydration reaction, and the remaining part is quartz.
[0072] (2) SEM analysis The non-fired ceramsite prepared in Example 2 was divided into two groups, namely Sample 1 and Sample 2. Sample 1 was naturally cured for 7 days, and Sample 2 was first steam cured at 60℃ for 3 days and then naturally cured for 4 days. Figure 2 These are SEM images of the non-fired ceramsite prepared in Example 2 after 1 day, 3 days, and 7 days of hydration. Figure 2 In the diagram, A-1d-1 represents sample 1 cured naturally for 1 day, A-3d-1 represents sample 1 cured naturally for 3 days, and A-7d-1 represents sample 1 cured naturally for 7 days; A-1d-2 represents sample 2 cured by steam for 1 day, A-3d-2 represents sample 2 cured by steam for 3 days, and A-7d-2 represents sample 2 cured by steam for 3 days followed by 4 days of natural curing.
[0073] Figure 2In the SEM image at 1 day of hydration, it can be seen that the main hydration products of the expanded clay aggregate after curing are amorphous CSH gel and a small amount of fibrous ettringite. Figure A-1d-2 shows that the generated ettringite is fine and scattered, indicating that the internal density of the expanded clay aggregate is relatively low in the early stages of hydration, suggesting that a certain degree of hydration reaction has occurred. However, since cement plays a dominant role in the initial hydration process, the activity of powder 3 is relatively poor, resulting in a low degree of early hydration. The presence of powder 5 in the material system promotes the formation of ettringite. Figure 2 At the 3-day incubation period, a large number of long rod-shaped ettringite particles were observed, which mostly aggregated into bundles and grew radially. The growth of ettringite was faster and the content was significantly increased compared to 1 day. A large amount of ettringite filled the gaps between the aggregated network of CSH gel, and the particles were embedded in the hydration products. The boundaries of the particles were blurred, indicating that the crystalline substances and glassy phase in the powder were fully activated and participated in the hydration reaction. Other components participated in hydration during this period, increasing the amount of hydration products and further improving the density. Figure 2 During the 7-day incubation period, the hydration products become coarser and shorter. Long, rod-shaped ettringite and well-crystallized CSH gel intergrow, resulting in a very dense structure that bonds together to form a tight three-dimensional network. With the abundant formation of hydration products, only a small portion of ettringite remains uncovered, further reducing the gaps in the system. The CSH gel completely encapsulates the ettringite crystals, making the structure even denser and forming a porous honeycomb structure. Figure 2 No obvious large pores were observed in the system. The synergistic effect of ettringite and CSH gel in the system gives the ceramsite good strength on a macroscopic scale.
[0074] Therefore, from Figure 2 It can be seen that the main hydration products of the non-fired ceramsite are CSH gel, ettringite, and Ca(OH)2. The CSH gel and ettringite intertwine to form a network structure, and some unreacted powder 3 fills the pores, which together improves the strength of the system, which is basically consistent with the XRD analysis results.
[0075] (3) EDS analysis Figure 3 These are SEM images of the non-fired ceramsite from Example 2, which were first steam-cured and then naturally cured. Among them, (a) is an SEM image of the non-fired ceramsite after steam curing at 60℃ for 1 day, (b) is an SEM image of the non-fired ceramsite after steam curing at 60℃ for 3 days, and (c) is an SEM image of the non-fired ceramsite after steam curing at 60℃ for 3 days and then naturally cured for 4 days. Figure 4 yes Figure 3 EDS plots of points Q, W, and E, where (Q) is the EDS plot of point Q, (W) is the EDS plot of point W, and (E) is the EDS plot of point E.
[0076] Combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 Point Q is a focal point image of a SEM image at 1 day after steam curing at 60℃. The main constituent elements are O and Ca, with a total calcium and oxygen content of 67.28% and a calcium-to-silicon ratio of 1.54. This suggests that the substance is ettringite. This indicates that a small amount of ettringite is generated during cement hydration at 1 day after steam curing at 60℃, which is consistent with the XRD and SEM analysis results. Point W is a focal point image of a SEM image at 3 days after steam curing at 60℃. The main elements are O, Ca, and Si, with Ca content of 17.95%, O content of 52.43%, and Ca content of 17.95%. The calcium-to-silicon ratio is 4.97. Based on the hexagonal plate-like shape of the substance in the SEM image, it is presumably calcium hydroxide crystals. Combined with the XRD pattern, the Ca(OH)₂ content increases at this age. Point E is a localized SEM image of the 3-day steam-cured and 4-day naturally-cured age at 60℃. The main constituent elements are O, Al, Ca, Si, and Fe. The O content is 14.12%, the Si content is 7.03%, and the Ca / Si ratio is 2.01, suggesting it is a CSH gel. In the later stages of hydration, the Si-O bonds in fly ash and iron tailings gradually break in the alkaline environment, interacting with Ca... 2+ The reaction generates CSH gel, which encapsulates ettringite. The two then interweave further, providing sufficient strength to the ceramsite.
[0077] Therefore, it can be concluded that the hydration products of expanded clay aggregate mainly consist of CSH gel, ettringite, and Ca(OH)2, which is consistent with the above conclusion. Figure 1 (XRD pattern) and Figure 2 The results presented in the (SEM image) are consistent.
[0078] (4) FT-IR analysis Figure 5 The images show the FT-IR infrared spectra of the non-fired ceramsite prepared in Example 2 after 1 day, 3 days, and 7 days of hydration. Figure 5 The medium wave number is 688 cm⁻¹ -1 The left and right sides represent Si-O-Si symmetric stretching vibrations belonging to the quartz group of minerals. The wavenumber is 1090 cm⁻¹. -1 The absorption peak is caused by the Si-O asymmetric vibration in the ettringite structure. At 1403 cm⁻¹ -1 The absorption peak appearing at this point is CO3. 2- The asymmetric stretching vibration bands are likely due to the production of more Ca(OH)₂ during hydration, which readily carbonizes with CO₂ in the air to form calcium carbonate. Alternatively, it could be caused by alkaline substances in the sample reacting with CO₂ in the air. The wavenumber is 1618 cm⁻¹. -1 The absorption peak at that point is formed by OH bond vibration. The wavenumber is 3425 cm⁻¹. -1The absorption peak corresponds to the vibrational band of water molecules in the CSH gel, indicating that more CSH gel is formed with increasing age. The wavenumber is 3635 cm⁻¹. -1 The absorption peaks of the OH stretching vibrations around the 3421 cm⁻¹ are not obvious. This is because the hydroxyl groups in ettringite and CSH gel are not typical hydroxyl groups; their hydrogen bonds and molecular bonds in the water of crystallization do not have clear boundaries, and therefore will be absorbed by the OH stretching vibrations around the 3421 cm⁻¹. -1 The peak of crystallization water at that location is obscured. 3635cm -1 The tiny vibrational peaks at that point correspond to the ν-type Ca(OH)₂. Ca-OH Absorption bands of stretching vibrations.
[0079] Samples of different ages in the longitudinal comparison chart, 1090cm -1 The vibration peak at 1090 cm⁻¹ increased with prolonged curing time. -1 A distinct absorption peak was observed at 3635 cm⁻¹, indicating the formation of ettringite after 1 day of hydration. The increased absorption peaks after 3 and 7 days of hydration suggest a greater quantity of ettringite formed in the later stages of hydration, consistent with XRD analysis results. The spectrum also shows that as hydration progresses, the absorption peak at 3635 cm⁻¹ increases. -1 The stretching vibration peaks in the vicinity first strengthen and then weaken. The Ca(OH)2 in the system is mainly produced by the hydration of powder 2 and powder 4. After 3 days of hydration, the vibration peaks are strengthened because the continued hydration of powder 4 provides more Ca(OH)2. However, as hydration progresses, the active SiO2 in powder 3 reacts chemically with Ca(OH)2, the amount of Ca(OH)2 decreases, the HOH stretching vibration peaks continue to weaken, and some of them do not participate in the reaction. This is the same as the change in the XRD pattern of the hydration products at different hydration ages.
[0080] therefore, Figure 5 The data show that the main peaks are basically the same in the spectra of three different hydration ages of 1 d, 3 d and 7 d, only the infrared light transmittance is slightly different, and all absorption peaks are shifted towards lower wavenumbers.
