Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of solid waste treatment equipment, specifically a high-value utilization system for all components of secondary aluminum ash, specifically a roasting furnace with secondary utilization of exhaust gas. Background Technology
[0002] Secondary aluminum ash is a byproduct generated during the recycling and recasting of aluminum products. Its main components include metallic aluminum, aluminum oxides, aluminum nitride, chlorides, and fluorides, with the metallic aluminum content typically ranging from 10% to 20%. Secondary aluminum ash contains toxic and harmful substances such as fluorides, cyanides, aluminum carbide, and aluminum nitride. These substances react with water to produce gases such as NH3 and CH4, which not only have a foul odor but also have the potential to cause explosions. The leaching of fluorides and cyanides can also pollute natural water bodies. The treatment and resource utilization of secondary aluminum ash is not only necessary for environmental protection but also an important component of resource conservation and the circular economy. Through appropriate technological treatment, the environmental impact of secondary aluminum ash can be reduced, while simultaneously achieving waste resource recovery and promoting sustainable development.
[0003] Extracting aluminum from secondary aluminum ash through acid or alkali leaching is a common secondary aluminum ash treatment process. However, acid or alkali leaching generates large amounts of wastewater, which can cause environmental pollution if not properly treated. Patent CN112744850B discloses a method for comprehensive utilization of secondary aluminum ash resources, which involves a high-temperature roasting process. This process recovers alumina from aluminum ash through a pyrometallurgical method and converts the alumina into sodium aluminate clinker. The sodium aluminate clinker can be sold directly or used to manufacture alumina. The salts condensed and crystallized in the roasting exhaust gas can also be used to prepare slagging agents. This invention features easy process control, stable industrial production, high product added value, and zero waste discharge, achieving the resource utilization of aluminum ash. However, this patent only relates to the preparation process and does not cover the specific preparation equipment. Utility Model Content

Structurally, the preheating section incorporates an internal fixed tube, effectively reducing its internal volume and improving preheating efficiency. A simple dust removal device on the exhaust gas flow pipe effectively removes solid components from the exhaust gas, facilitating subsequent processing. Attached Figure Description
