Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a method for treating sludge water, a method for reusing sludge water, and a method for manufacturing a cement molded body.

Background Art

[0002] The water obtained by removing aggregates from the washing wastewater used for washing transport vehicles, mixers, etc. in a ready-mixed concrete factory is called recovered water. The recovered water is divided into supernatant water containing hydrated products such as calcium hydroxide and calcium silicate hydrate eluted from cement, and sludge water containing sludge solids mostly composed of the hydrated products.

[0003] In order to reuse the sludge water as mixing water for concrete, it is stored in a sludge water tank in the factory and then distributed from the sludge water tank to manufacturing facilities in the factory through pipes.

[0004] However, when the sludge water is stored for a long time, a hydration reaction occurs between the sludge solids and water contained in the sludge water, causing the sludge solids to solidify in the sludge water tank or pipes. Therefore, various methods have been proposed to reduce the solidification of the sludge solids.

[0005] For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a method for using fresh sludge water containing a setting retarder containing a setting retardation component as a stabilizer and used as mixing water.

Note that the cement may be used alone or in combination of two or more kinds.

[0028] From the viewpoint of reducing the consolidation of the sludge solids and storing for a relatively long period, the content of the sludge solids contained in the sludge water is preferably 20% by mass or less, more preferably 15% by mass or less, with respect to the whole sludge water.

[0033] In the blowing process, the time for blowing the gas containing carbon dioxide is not particularly limited, but for example, when the concentration of carbon dioxide is 100% by volume, it can be 6 minutes or more and 120 minutes or less.

[0034] In the blowing process, the molar concentration ratio of carbon dioxide to calcium oxide contained in the sludge water is 1.0 or more, preferably 1.0 or more and 20.0 or less, and more preferably 5.0 or more and 10.0 or less, from the viewpoint of reducing the consolidation of the sludge solids while storing for a relatively long period.

[0088] [Test 1: Evaluation of Consolidation of Sludge Water] The sludge waters corresponding to each example and comparative example were stored in a constant temperature room at 20 ± 2°C for 7 days or 33 days.

[0089] For each of the sludge waters stored for 7 days and those stored for 33 days, the penetration resistance value was determined based on JIS A 1147. Specifically, using a Proctor penetrometer (manufactured by Marui Co., Ltd.), the measurement was carried out so that the time required for penetration was about 10 seconds, and the penetration resistance value was determined.

[0090] Based on the following criteria from the penetration resistance value, the presence or absence of consolidation of each sludge water was evaluated. ◎: No consolidation; 0.4 N / mm 2Less than ○: Slightly consolidated; 0.4 N / mm 2 1.0 N / mm or more 2 Less than ×: Consolidated; 1.0 N / mm 2 1.0 N / mm or more

[0091] Table 2 shows the evaluation results of the penetration resistance values and the presence or absence of consolidation for each example, comparative example, and [example].

[0092] [Table 2]

[0093] [Test 2: Evaluation of the coagulation time of sludge water] In accordance with JIS R 5201, the coagulation time of sludge water was evaluated. As a pretreatment, first, the amount of water in the sludge water corresponding to each example and comparative example was adjusted so that the standard softness became 6 ± 1 mm. Next, each sludge water with the adjusted amount of water was stored in a constant temperature room at 20 ± 2 °C for 1 day or 7 days. The coagulation time was evaluated based on the following criteria with respect to the start time or end time of the sludge water prepared using reference water (tap water) based on Appendix C of JIS A 5308.

[0094] ◎: Start time within ±20 minutes, end time within ±30 minutes ○: Start time exceeding ±20 minutes and within ±30 minutes, end time exceeding ±30 minutes and within ±60 minutes ×: Start time exceeding ±30 minutes, end time exceeding ±60 minutes

[0095] Table 3 shows the evaluation results of the coagulation time. Also, Table 4 shows the formulations of the sludge water for each example, each comparative example, and the reference example used in the evaluation of the coagulation time.

[0096] [Table 3]

[0097] [Table 4]

[0098] [Test 3: Evaluation of Compressive Strength of Mortar] For Example 7, Comparative Example 4, and Reference Example 1 (hereinafter referred to as each example, etc.), specimens were prepared in accordance with JIS R 5201, and the compressive strength of the mortar was measured and evaluated.

[0099] (Preparation of Specimen) Mortar was prepared according to the formulation shown in Table 5.

[0100] [Table 5]

[0101] Specifically, first, using a kneading mixer (a mechanical kneader specified in JIS R 5201), cement (ordinary Portland cement; manufactured by Sumitomo Osaka Cement Co., Ltd.) and fine aggregate (mountain sand; produced in Kakegawa City, Shizuoka Prefecture) were dry-kneaded for 15 seconds, and then the sludge water corresponding to each example, etc. was added and kneaded for 180 seconds to obtain mortar.

[0102] The obtained mortar was poured into a cylindrical mold (φ50×100 mm) to cure the mortar. The cured mortar was demolded the next day and cured in water at 20°C until the age of 7 days to obtain specimens.

[0103] (Evaluation of Compressive Strength) The compressive strength was evaluated by conducting a compressive strength test based on JIS R 5201 and measuring the compressive strength at the age of 7 days. The compressive strength was evaluated as the ratio of the compressive strength of the specimens of each example, etc. to the compressive strength of the specimens prepared using standard water (tap water) based on Appendix C of JIS A 5308.

[0104] The evaluation results of the compressive strength are shown in Table 6.

[0105] [Table 6]

[0106] As can be seen from Tables 2 and 3, the method for treating the sludge water in each example can store the sludge water for a relatively long period while reducing the consolidation of the sludge solids, as compared with the method for treating the sludge water in each comparative example.

[0107] Also, as can be seen from Table 6, it was found that the test body using the sludge water of Example 7 could relatively suppress the reduction in compressive strength as compared with Comparative Example 4 and Reference Example 1. From this, the method for reusing the sludge water according to the present invention can reuse the sludge water, which can reduce the consolidation of the sludge solids even when stored for a relatively long period, as a material for the cement molded body, thereby obtaining a cement molded body in which the reduction in compressive strength is relatively suppressed. Further, the method for manufacturing the cement molded body according to the present invention can manufacture a cement molded body in which the reduction in compressive strength is relatively suppressed by including the sludge water, which can reduce the consolidation of the sludge solids even when stored for a relatively long period, as the water that is the material of the cement molded body.

Claims
