Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of calcium hydroxide technology, specifically to a method for preparing high specific surface area calcium hydroxide. Background Technology

[0002] Calcium hydroxide, as a low-cost alkaline inorganic material, is widely used in various fields such as flue gas desulfurization and denitrification, especially as a core desulfurization adsorbent in dry and semi-dry flue gas desulfurization processes. However, calcium hydroxide prepared by traditional processes has significant drawbacks: rapid crystal growth, small specific surface area (only 20~30 m² / g), simple pore structure, and strong exothermic hydration of calcium oxide, which easily leads to particle agglomeration and uneven hydration, resulting in low calcium utilization and desulfurization efficiency. At the same time, it is prone to carbonization during storage and transportation, forming a calcium carbonate film on the surface, which further reduces reactivity and cannot meet the long-term, high-purity requirements of industry. To address the aforementioned issues, coating modification technology has become one of the key optimization pathways. A functional film is formed on the surface of calcium oxide using a coating agent, blocking direct contact to slow down the hydration rate and inhibit agglomeration, while simultaneously guiding crystal growth and optimizing the pore structure. Ma Junbiao (Dry Desulfurization Lime Digestion Process [J]. Huadian Technology, 2010, 32(05):74-79.) found that even with a single additive, the BET concentration using a dry digestion process could only be increased to a maximum of 30 m² / g. Hao Zhifei (Wet Modification for Preparation and Characterization of High Specific Surface Area Calcium Hydroxide [J]. Inorganic Salt Industry, 2015, 47(12):3.) added a single hydroxyl-containing organic additive during the digestion process, which increased the specific surface area of ​​calcium hydroxide to 47.4 m² / g. However, the single additive had limited regulatory effect on crystal growth and insufficient inhibition of hydration agglomeration. Combining core patented technologies with existing research findings, this patent selects multi-component organic coating agents such as ethylene glycol, triethanolamine, and ethylenediamine. These agents not only possess the stability and environmental advantages of both alkanolamine and polyol coating agents, but also address the pain points of particle agglomeration and insufficient specific surface area in traditional processes by reducing solid-liquid interfacial tension and delaying hydration reactions. This further enhances the dispersibility and reactivity of the product, making it suitable for the long-term, high-purity requirements of industrial desulfurization and denitrification scenarios. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the problems existing in the prior art, the present invention provides a method for preparing calcium hydroxide, which utilizes an organic coating agent to coat calcium oxide.
