Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of solid waste treatment, and more specifically, relates to a method for detoxification and recycling of fly ash by water washing. Background Technology

[0002] Fly ash, a typical hazardous solid waste generated during incineration, has a complex composition and is highly hazardous. It contains not only various heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, and mercury, but also a large amount of soluble salts such as sodium chloride and potassium chloride. If simply disposed of through landfill or stockpiling, heavy metals can easily pollute the soil and groundwater through leaching, while soluble salts will exacerbate salinization of the surrounding environment, posing serious ecological and environmental risks. At the same time, the soluble salts in fly ash have high recycling value, and failure to effectively recover them will result in significant resource waste. Currently, water washing detoxification technology has become the mainstream technology for the harmless treatment and resource recovery of fly ash because it can effectively remove soluble salts and some heavy metals.

[0003] Existing fly ash treatment technologies suffer from the following drawbacks: Fluctuations in the characteristics of different batches of fly ash – Fly ash from different sources and under different incineration conditions exhibits significant differences in core parameters such as particle size distribution, soluble salt content, and heavy metal concentration. Current fly ash washing and detoxification technologies generally employ fixed parameters, failing to adequately adapt to the fluctuations in particle size, soluble salt content, and heavy metal concentration among different batches of fly ash. This leads to problems such as substandard treatment or waste of energy and reagents in each stage of washing, drying, adsorption purification, and evaporation crystallization. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for detoxifying and recycling fly ash by washing, which aims to solve the problem that the existing fly ash treatment process uses fixed parameters, making it difficult to adapt to the parameters of different batches of fly ash.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: to provide a method for fly ash water washing detoxification and recycling, comprising: Real-time acquisition of parameter information for feed fly ash; Based on the parameter information of the fed fly ash, determine the required water volume and stirring rate for pulping, and complete the fly ash pulping to obtain fly ash slurry; The fly ash slurry is washed with water. During the washing process, the parameters of the eluent are monitored in real time, and the number of washes and the countercurrent rate are dynamically adjusted according to the parameters of the eluent. The mixture obtained by water washing is subjected to solid-liquid separation to obtain mud cake and eluent; The mud cake is dried; The heavy metals in the eluent are adsorbed to obtain a preliminarily purified eluent. The preliminarily purified eluent is evaporated and crystallized to recover soluble salts.

[0006] In one possible implementation, the parameter information of the fly ash includes particle size distribution data and mass fraction of soluble salts.

[0007] In one possible implementation, the step of determining the required water volume and stirring rate for pulping based on the parameter information of the feed fly ash, and completing the fly ash pulping to obtain fly ash slurry, includes: The required amount of water for pulping is determined based on the parameter information of the fly ash, and water injection is completed. Obtain parameter information of agglomerates in fly ash slurry; The stirring rate is dynamically adjusted based on the parameter information of the agglomerates and the particle size distribution data.

[0008] In one possible implementation, obtaining the parameter information of agglomerates in fly ash slurry includes: Acquire image information of the fly ash slurry; The number and average particle size of agglomerates in the fly ash slurry are calculated based on the image information.

[0009] In one possible implementation, dynamically adjusting the stirring rate based on the parameter information of the agglomerates and the particle size distribution data includes: The parameter information of the aggregate is compared with the aggregate parameter threshold. If the parameter information of the aggregate is not higher than the aggregate parameter threshold, the stirring rate is controlled to a first rate. If the parameter information of the aggregate is higher than the aggregate parameter threshold, the stirring rate is adjusted to a second rate according to the parameter information of the aggregate.

[0010] In one possible implementation, the step of washing the fly ash slurry with water, monitoring the parameters of the eluent in real time during the washing process, and dynamically adjusting the number of washes and the countercurrent rate based on the parameters of the eluent, includes: The initial number of washes and the initial countercurrent rate are set according to the mass fraction information of the soluble salts, and the fly ash slurry is subjected to countercurrent washing. Obtain the real-time conductivity and pH value of the eluent; The number of washes and the countercurrent rate are dynamically adjusted based on the real-time conductivity and pH of the eluent.

[0011] In one possible implementation, drying the mud cake includes: Obtain the real-time moisture content information of the mud cake; The real-time moisture content information is compared with the moisture content threshold, and the drying temperature is adjusted in real time based on the comparison result.

[0012] In one possible implementation, comparing the real-time moisture content information with a moisture content threshold and adjusting the drying temperature in real time based on the comparison result includes: Calculate the difference between the real-time moisture content information and the moisture content threshold; The drying temperature is adjusted in real time based on the difference.

[0013] In one possible implementation, the adsorption of heavy metals in the eluent to obtain a preliminarily purified eluent comprises: Develop a batch-by-batch adsorbent dosing plan, determine the initial adsorbent dosing amount, and set the initial stirring rate. The adsorbent is added in batches. After the adsorbent is added, the real-time heavy metal concentration information of the eluent is obtained, and the stirring rate is dynamically adjusted based on the real-time heavy metal concentration.

[0014] In one possible implementation, the step of dispensing the adsorbent in batches includes: The real-time heavy metal concentration information is compared with a safety threshold. If the real-time heavy metal concentration information is not lower than the safety threshold, then the next batch of adsorbent needs to be added; if the real-time heavy metal concentration information is lower than the safety threshold, then the next batch of adsorbent needs to be added. If the next batch of adsorbent needs to be added, the change range is calculated based on the real-time heavy metal concentration information; if the change range is not lower than the change threshold, the next batch of adsorbent will not be added temporarily; if the change range is lower than the change threshold, the next batch of adsorbent will be added, and the amount of adsorbent added in the next batch will be determined based on the real-time heavy metal concentration information.

[0015] The beneficial effects of the fly ash washing detoxification and recovery method provided by this invention are as follows: Compared with the prior art, this invention's fly ash washing detoxification and recovery method, by collecting parameter information of the feed fly ash in real time, can accurately grasp the specific characteristics of each batch of fly ash, providing a targeted basis for subsequent processing steps and avoiding the problem of unstable treatment effect due to differences in fly ash characteristics. Determining the required water volume and stirring rate for pulping based on the feed fly ash parameter information ensures the rationality of the fly ash pulping process, preventing the slurry quality from being affected by too much or too little water, and preventing uneven mixing of the slurry due to improper stirring rate, thus laying a good foundation for the subsequent washing stage.

[0016] During the washing process, the eluent parameters are monitored in real time, and the number of washes and the countercurrent rate are dynamically adjusted. This allows for flexible optimization of the washing operation based on the actual conditions of the eluent, effectively improving washing efficiency and ensuring that soluble salts and some heavy metals are fully eluted. This avoids energy waste caused by incomplete or excessive washing. The resulting mixture undergoes solid-liquid separation to obtain a mud cake and eluent, achieving effective separation of the two phases and facilitating subsequent drying of the mud cake and processing of the eluent. Drying the mud cake removes moisture, reduces its volume, facilitates subsequent handling and utilization, and minimizes moisture interference in later processing stages.

[0017] Adsorbing heavy metals from the eluent effectively removes harmful heavy metals, reducing the environmental hazard of the eluent and yielding a pre-purified eluent, providing clean raw materials for subsequent evaporation and crystallization. Evaporation and crystallization of the pre-purified eluent allows for the effective recovery of soluble salts, transforming potentially wasted resources into usable substances, thus improving the resource utilization rate of fly ash treatment and meeting the requirements of resource recycling. Overall, this method, through dynamic adjustment and precise processing at each stage, effectively solves the problem of traditional treatment technologies that struggle to adapt to the characteristics of different batches of fly ash due to fixed parameters. It improves the harmless treatment effect of fly ash, reduces environmental risks, and simultaneously achieves the recovery and utilization of soluble salts, reducing resource waste and demonstrating significant environmental and resource benefits.

The laser particle size sensor collects the particle size distribution data of fly ash particles in real time, and the near-infrared spectroscopy sensor detects the mass fraction of soluble salts in fly ash in real time. The sampling frequency is set to 1 time / minute, and the collected data is filtered to remove outliers.

[0030] The filtering process is as follows: A sliding window is constructed using the average particle size or soluble salt mass fraction data from five consecutive collections. The filtered data is then calculated using the following formula to achieve data smoothing and noise reduction:

The machine vision model includes an image acquisition module, a preprocessing module, a segmentation module, and a feature extraction module.

[0049] After acquiring image information, the image processing system first performs a 3×3 median filter to remove random noise, then uses gamma correction to improve the edge sharpness of the clusters, and finally converts the image to grayscale to reduce computation. Next, cluster segmentation is performed. Adaptive thresholding is used to convert the grayscale image into a binary image. Opening operations remove small impurity points, and closing operations fill in tiny holes inside the clusters. Feature extraction and filtering are then performed. The connected regions in the binary image are traversed, and features such as area, perimeter, and circularity of each region are extracted. Regions with an area ≥ 50 pixels and a circularity ≥ 0.6 are selected as valid clusters. Finally, parameter calculation and output are performed. Based on the camera calibration parameters, pixel units are converted to actual physical units, and the number of clusters and average particle size are calculated. Abnormal data deviating from the mean by ±10% are removed to ensure accurate results.

[0103] The beneficial effects of the fly ash washing detoxification and recovery method provided by this invention are as follows: Compared with the prior art, this invention's fly ash washing detoxification and recovery method, by collecting parameter information of the feed fly ash in real time, can accurately grasp the specific characteristics of each batch of fly ash, providing targeted data support for subsequent processing stages and avoiding the problem of unstable treatment effects due to differences in fly ash characteristics. Based on the collected parameter information, the required water volume and stirring rate for pulping are determined, ensuring the rationality of the fly ash pulping process. This prevents the slurry quality from being affected by too much or too little water, and also prevents uneven mixing of the slurry due to improper stirring rate, laying a good foundation for the subsequent washing stage and ensuring the adaptability and scientific nature of the initial steps of the entire processing flow.

[0104] During the fly ash slurry washing process, real-time monitoring of eluent parameters and dynamic adjustment of the washing cycle and countercurrent rate allow for flexible optimization of the washing operation based on the actual conditions of the eluent. This dynamic adjustment method effectively improves washing efficiency, ensuring that soluble salts and some heavy metals are fully eluted, while avoiding energy waste caused by incomplete or excessive washing. This allows the washing process to achieve rational resource utilization while ensuring treatment effectiveness.

[0105] The mixed system obtained from water washing undergoes solid-liquid separation to obtain a sludge cake and eluent, achieving effective separation of the solid and liquid phases. This creates independent and suitable conditions for subsequent drying of the sludge cake and subsequent treatment of the eluent, avoiding interference from solid-liquid mixing in subsequent processing steps and improving the overall orderliness of the treatment process. Drying the sludge cake removes moisture, reduces its volume, facilitates subsequent disposal and utilization, and reduces the potential adverse effects of moisture on other treatment stages, further improving the harmless treatment process for fly ash.

[0106] By adsorbing heavy metals from the eluent, harmful heavy metals can be effectively removed, reducing the environmental hazard of the eluent and yielding a pre-purified eluent. This provides clean raw materials for subsequent evaporation and crystallization, ensuring the safety and purity of the recovered materials. Evaporation and crystallization of the pre-purified eluent allows for the effective recovery of soluble salts, transforming potentially wasted resources into usable substances. This improves the resource utilization rate of fly ash treatment and meets the requirements of resource recycling.

[0107] Furthermore, when determining the pulping water volume and stirring rate, dynamic adjustments are made based on parameters such as fly ash particle size distribution, soluble salt mass fraction, and agglomerates in the slurry, further improving the accuracy of pulping. In the heavy metal adsorption stage, adsorbent is added in batches, and the stirring rate and dosage are adjusted according to the real-time heavy metal concentration, ensuring sufficient heavy metal adsorption and rational use of the reagent, avoiding reagent waste. Overall, this technical solution effectively solves the problem of traditional treatment technologies being unable to adapt to different fly ash characteristics due to fixed parameters through dynamic adjustment and precise treatment at each stage. It improves the harmless treatment effect of fly ash, reduces environmental risks, and achieves resource recovery, thus possessing both environmental and resource benefits.
