Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of solid waste resource utilization technology, and in particular to a ZSM-5 molecular sieve prepared using secondary aluminum ash and fly ash, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Secondary aluminum ash generated during aluminum smelting and fly ash from coal-fired power plants are two types of industrial solid waste produced in large quantities. Secondary aluminum ash contains harmful components such as fluorides, chlorides, and trace heavy metals, making its harmless disposal a persistent challenge in the industry. Large-scale stockpiling not only occupies land but also poses environmental risks. While fly ash has found some applications in building materials and other fields, these are mostly low-value-added uses, and its rich silicon and aluminum content has not been fully extracted and utilized.

[0003] Molecular sieves, especially ZSM-5 molecular sieves, play an irreplaceable role in petrochemical and environmental protection fields such as catalysis and adsorption separation due to their unique pore structure and tunable surface acidity. Currently, the industrial synthesis of ZSM-5 molecular sieves mainly relies on chemical raw materials, such as sodium silicate, water glass, silica sol, sodium aluminate, and aluminum sulfate, resulting in high production costs and the consumption of a large amount of non-renewable mineral resources.

[0004] To reduce costs and achieve waste resource utilization, researchers have attempted to use silicon-aluminum-containing solid waste as alternative raw materials. While existing technologies have reported the use of fly ash to obtain silicon-aluminum sources for molecular sieve synthesis via an alkali-melting-acid leaching process, this method often suffers from problems such as long process flows, low silicon-aluminum extraction rates, and a fixed, difficult-to-adjust ratio. The resulting molecular sieve products often exhibit a narrow silicon-aluminum ratio range, and their crystallinity and catalytic performance are frequently inferior to those of chemical raw materials. Furthermore, some studies have explored using secondary aluminum ash as an aluminum source, but its complex composition and the presence of harmful impurities can poison the crystallization process of molecular sieves, leading to crystallization failure or poor product purity; therefore, successful cases are few and far between.

[0005] More importantly, existing technologies are mostly limited to the utilization of single solid wastes, failing to fundamentally solve the problem of co-processing and high-value utilization of two types of waste. A technical solution for effectively co-processing fly ash and secondary alumina ash, and precisely controlling their ratio as silicon and aluminum sources to prepare high-performance ZSM-5 molecular sieves, remains undeveloped. Therefore, developing a new method that can economically and efficiently co-utilize secondary alumina ash and fly ash to prepare ZSM-5 molecular sieves with ideal structure and properties not only has significant environmental benefits but also possesses important economic value and industrial prospects. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to solve the technical problem that existing technologies cannot efficiently prepare high-performance ZSM-5 molecular sieves by synergistically utilizing two solid wastes, secondary aluminum ash and fly ash.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solutions.

[0008] This invention provides a method for preparing ZSM-5 molecular sieves using secondary aluminum ash and fly ash, comprising the following steps:

[0009] S1. Activated fly ash is obtained by mixing fly ash with sodium carbonate and then calcining it.

[0010] S2. Aluminum-containing silica gel was obtained by leaching activated fly ash in hydrochloric acid.

[0011] S3. Mix the secondary aluminum ash, water and calcium oxide and centrifuge to obtain the supernatant;

[0012] S4. After mixing aluminum-containing silica gel, supernatant, template agent, R crystallization regulator, alkali aid and structure regulator, crystallization reaction, cooling, separation, washing, drying and calcination are carried out in sequence to obtain ZSM-5 molecular sieve.

[0013] Furthermore, in step S1, the mass ratio of fly ash to sodium carbonate is 1:0.4~1.5.

[0014] Furthermore, in step S1, the calcination temperature is 600~1000℃, and the calcination time is 1~5h.

[0015] Furthermore, in step S2, the hydrochloric acid concentration is 1~5 mol / L; the leaching temperature is 60~100℃; and the leaching time is 10~90 min.

[0016] Furthermore, in step S3, the ratio of secondary aluminum ash, water, and calcium oxide is 1g: 5~20mL: 0.1~0.5g.

[0017] Furthermore, in step S3, the mixing temperature is 25~80℃, and the mixing time is 30~120min.

[0018] Furthermore, in step S4, the mass ratio of aluminum-containing silica gel, supernatant, template agent, R crystallization regulator, alkali aid and structure regulator is 100:10~50:5~25:0.5~30:3~15:1~20;

[0019] The template agent is tetrapropylammonium hydroxide and / or polyethyleneimine;

[0020] The R crystallization regulator is an organic amine compound;

[0021] The alkaline additive is sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide;

[0022] The structure modifier is a seed crystal, which is a nano ZSM-5 molecular sieve with a particle size of 50~500nm.

[0023] Furthermore, in step S4, the temperature of the crystallization reaction is 150~250℃, and the crystallization time is 24~72h;

[0024] The roasting temperature is 500~800℃, and the roasting time is 4~12h.

[0025] This invention provides ZSM-5 molecular sieve prepared by the above preparation method.

[0026] This invention also provides the application of the above-mentioned ZSM-5 molecular sieve in denitrification catalysts or adsorbents.

[0027] As can be seen from the above technical solution, compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0028] This invention achieves complementary advantages and synergistic transformation of two waste materials at the elemental and phase levels. After roasting and activation, the glassy structure of fly ash is destroyed, and the resulting aluminates and silicates are separated during subsequent acid leaching, yielding an active aluminosilicate colloid dominated by silicon and containing a suitable amount of aluminum. This process solves the problem of low aluminosilicate reactivity in fly ash. Simultaneously, the active aluminum component in the secondary aluminosilicate ash is selectively extracted to the liquid phase through a calcification reaction with calcium oxide, forming a supplementary solution rich in calcium aluminate. This crucial step not only effectively avoids the poisoning effect of impurities such as fluorine and chlorine in the secondary aluminosilicate ash on molecular sieve crystallization, but more importantly, it creatively mixes and assembles the aluminosilicate colloid extracted from fly ash and the aluminum source solution extracted from the secondary aluminosilicate ash at the molecular level. Guided by template agents and seed crystals, the two silicon and aluminum species from different sources jointly constitute a richer and more diverse nucleation precursor, thus providing a wider nucleation window in crystallization kinetics and promoting uniform crystal growth.

[0029] At the material construction level, the combination of this unique composite precursor and seed-induction technology allows the crystallization process of the molecular sieve to follow a more controllable path. The seed crystal, as the core of structure guidance, not only lowers the nucleation energy barrier but also guides the epitaxial growth of new crystals on its surface, effectively suppressing the formation of impurity crystals. The ZSM-5 molecular sieve prepared in this way achieves intrinsic optimization of its microstructure, exhibiting characteristics of fine grains, high crystallinity, and hierarchical pores. Fine grains imply a large external surface area and shortened pore diffusion paths, while the formation of hierarchical pores achieves a perfect synergy between the inherent shape selectivity of microporous crystals and the mass transport efficiency provided by mesopores / macropores.

[0030] When applied in catalysis, this molecular sieve not only provides abundant and tunable acidic active sites, but its unique diffusion properties also ensure that reactant molecules can reach and leave the active centers more quickly, thus significantly improving catalytic efficiency and resistance to carbon buildup. In adsorption separation applications, the hierarchical porous structure provides adsorbate molecules with more unobstructed diffusion channels and more accessible sites, resulting in faster adsorption kinetics and higher adsorption capacity.

[0067] Performance testing

[0068] 1. Static n-hexane adsorption capacity test

[0069] Prepare a desiccator containing an appropriate amount of anhydrous calcium chloride to create a dry environment. Weigh four clean, dry, and constant-weight weighing bottles (denoted as W0), accurate to 0.0001 g. Add approximately 0.5000 g (denoted as W1) of the sample to be tested (ZSM-5-A, ZSM-5-B, ZSM-5-C, ZSM-5-D) to each weighing bottle and record the total weight. Open the caps of the weighing bottles containing the samples and place them together in the desiccator. Pour sufficient analytical-grade n-hexane into the bottom of the desiccator, ensuring that the liquid surface does not contact the weighing bottles. Seal the desiccator and let it stand at room temperature (25°C) for 24 hours to allow the molecular sieve to fully adsorb n-hexane vapor. After 24 hours, quickly remove the weighing bottles and tighten the caps, then weigh them immediately (denoted as W2). The static n-hexane adsorption capacity is calculated using the following formula:

[0070] Adsorption capacity (%) = [(W2-W1-W0) / W1] × 100%. The calculation results are shown in Table 1.

[0071] Table 1. Results of Static n-hexane Adsorption Capacity Test

[0072]

[0073] 2. Catalytic cracking model reaction performance testing

[0074] A fixed-bed microreactor was constructed using a quartz reaction tube with an inner diameter of 6 mm. For each test, 0.1000 g (20-40 mesh) of molecular sieve sample was weighed and placed in the isothermal zone of the reaction tube. The reaction system was heated to 350 °C and activated for 1 h under nitrogen carrier gas (flow rate 30 mL / min). After activation, cumene was injected into the vaporization chamber at a rate of 0.1 mL / h using a micro-injection pump, and carried into the reactor by nitrogen gas. After the reaction stabilized for 30 min, the reaction product was collected in a receiving flask cooled with ice water, and collection continued for 30 min. The composition of the collected liquid product was analyzed by gas chromatography. The conversion rate of cumene was calculated using the following formula:

[0075] The conversion rate of cumene (%) is calculated as follows: [(moles of cumene in the feed - moles of cumene in the product) / moles of cumene in the feed] × 100%. The calculation results are shown in Table 2.

[0076] Table 2. Performance test results of the catalytic cracking model reaction

[0077]

[0078] 3. Thermal stability test (loss on ignition method)

[0079] Four crucibles were ignited at 900°C to constant weight, and the weight was recorded (M0). Approximately 1.0000 g (M1) of the sample to be tested was added to each crucible. The crucibles were placed in a muffle furnace preheated to 900°C and ignited for 2 hours. After 2 hours, the crucibles were removed and cooled to room temperature in a desiccator. The total weight of the crucibles and the ignited sample was quickly measured (M2). The loss on ignition was calculated using the following formula:

[0080] Loss on ignition (%) = [(M1-(M2-M0)) / M1] × 100%. The calculation results are shown in Table 3.

[0081] Table 3 Thermal stability test results

[0082]

[0083] 4. Ion exchange capacity test

[0084] 0.5000 g of each of the four molecular sieve samples were weighed into four conical flasks. 100 mL of a 1.0 mol / L ammonium chloride solution (adjusted to pH 7 with ammonia) was added to each flask. The flasks were sealed and placed in a constant-temperature shaker at 80°C and 150 rpm for 6 hours for ion exchange. After exchange, the samples were cooled, filtered, and the molecular sieve solids were thoroughly washed with deionized water. All filtrates and washings were collected in 250 mL volumetric flasks and diluted to volume. The concentration of unexchanged ammonium ions in the filtrate was determined by acid-base titration: 50.00 mL of the diluted filtrate was taken, excess sodium hydroxide solution was added, ammonia gas was distilled off, absorbed with boric acid solution, and finally titrated with standard hydrochloric acid solution. The ammonium ion exchange capacity was obtained by calculating the amount of ammonium ions adsorbed by the molecular sieve. The calculation results are shown in Table 4.

[0085] Table 4. Ion exchange capacity test results

[0086]

[0087] As shown in Tables 1-4, the ZSM-5 molecular sieves prepared in Examples 1, 2, and 3 are superior to the product of Comparative Example 1 in terms of adsorption performance, catalytic activity, and thermal stability. They possess well-developed pore structures, abundant acidic sites, and stable frameworks. By adjusting the ratio of the secondary aluminum ash supernatant, the silica-alumina ratio of the product was successfully controlled, which was directly reflected in the ion exchange capacity and catalytic activity. The product of Comparative Example 1, due to the lack of secondary aluminum ash pretreatment and extraction steps, and the absence of R crystallization regulator, exhibits low crystallinity, underdeveloped pores, few active centers, and poor thermal stability, fully demonstrating the necessity of the synergistic effect of the components in the technical solution of this invention.

[0088] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
