Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of magnesium oxide production, and in particular to a process for producing silicon steel grade magnesium oxide using dolomite. [Background technology]

[0002] Silicon steel-grade magnesium oxide is a magnesium oxide coating material used in the production of oriented silicon steel sheet, and is a high-value-added magnesium oxide product. It is mainly used in the high-temperature annealing treatment stage of the oriented silicon steel sheet manufacturing process, where it acts as an isolating agent, dephosphorizing agent, and desulfurizing agent, and reacts with silicon oxide on the surface of the silicon steel to form magnesium silicate, an excellent insulating film layer. However, at present, China's demand for silicon steel-grade magnesium oxide is large, and the product supply does not meet market demand, so the country remains dependent on imports.

[0003] Currently, the raw materials used to produce silicon steel-grade magnesium oxide include magnesite, dolomite, bischofite, seawater or salt lake saponification, and magnesium-containing ores. Specific production methods include the saponification-ammonium carbonate method, magnesium ore coalification method, ammonia method, and saponification-water pyrolysis method. However, each method has its own drawbacks. For example, the saponification-ammonium carbonate method is relatively mature and produces stable and reliable product quality, but consumes a large amount of raw materials and has high production costs. The magnesium ore coalification method has drawbacks such as high energy consumption and production costs, and its low purity makes industrial production difficult. The ammonia method is prone to magnesium oxide colloid formation, making process control relatively difficult, leading to localized sintering, reduced activity, and reduced recovery rates. Furthermore, it poses significant environmental issues. The saponification-water pyrolysis method requires high equipment, is prone to environmental pollution, and has a low raw material recovery rate.

[0004] In view of the above problems in the production of silicon steel grade magnesium oxide, it has become extremely important to explore a method for producing silicon steel grade magnesium oxide with high purity, low cost, and little residue. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide a process for producing electrical steel grade magnesium oxide using dolomite to solve the problems in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides a process for producing silicon steel grade magnesium oxide using dolomite, which includes the following steps: S1: Dolomite raw material is crushed and fired to obtain lightly burned dolomite powder, and then the lightly burned dolomite powder is subjected to primary hydration treatment, and after hydration, the primary hydration product is obtained by filtering, washing and drying. S2: The primary hydrated product is subjected to secondary hydration according to the solid-liquid ratio, and the hydration temperature and time are controlled. After hydration, the secondary hydrated product is obtained by filtering, washing and drying. S3, the secondary hydration product is washed with magnesium chloride solution, and the washing temperature and washing time are controlled. After washing, the product is filtered, washed and dried to obtain magnesium hydroxide containing a small amount of impurity compounds. S4, the magnesium hydroxide obtained in S3 containing a small amount of impurity compounds is subjected to a carbonization reaction according to a solid-liquid ratio, and the carbonization temperature, carbonization time, and carbon dioxide flow rate are controlled. After the reaction is completed, the magnesium bicarbonate solution is obtained by filtration. S5. Pyrolyze the magnesium bicarbonate solution, controlling the pyrolysis temperature and time, and after completion, filter and dry to obtain magnesium carbonate. S6, the magnesium carbonate produced in S5 is calcined, and the calcination temperature and time are controlled to obtain silicon steel grade magnesium oxide.

[0007] Preferably, in step S1, dolomite is first crushed and ball-milled, and the ball-milled dolomite powder is sieved to a mesh number of 100 to 200. Next, the sieved dolomite powder is fired in a tubular furnace at a firing temperature of 900 to 1200°C for a firing time of 2 to 5 hours.

[0008] Preferably, in S1, the solid-liquid ratio of the lightly burned dolomite powder is set to 0.5 to 1 g / L, and in the primary hydration step, 2 to 3 g of disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate is added, the hydration temperature is set to 50 to 70°C, the hydration time is set to 20 to 40 minutes, and the hydration stirring speed is set to 500 to 800 r / min.

[0009] Preferably, in S2, the solid-liquid ratio is 1 to 2 g / L, the hydration temperature is 90 to 110° C., the hydration time is 1 to 3 hours, and the hydration stirring speed is 500 to 800 r / min.

[0010] Preferably, in S3, the mass concentration of the magnesium chloride solution is 3 to 6%, the amount used is 200 to 400 mL, the washing temperature is 20 to 30° C., the washing time is 0.5 to 1 hour, and the washing stirring speed is 500 to 800 r / min.

[0011] Preferably, in S4, the solid-liquid ratio is 5 to 8 g / L, the carbonization temperature is 10 to 20°C, the carbonization time is 40 to 60 minutes, and the flow rate of carbon dioxide is 0.08 to 0.2 L min -1 Let's say.

[0012] Preferably, in S5, the thermal decomposition temperature is 80 to 100° C., the thermal decomposition time is 0.5 to 1 hour, and the thermal decomposition stirring speed is 500 to 800 r / min.

[0015] The principle of the process employed in the present invention is as follows. The products obtained by calcining dolomite are mainly magnesium oxide and calcium oxide. The reaction of magnesium oxide with water to produce magnesium hydroxide proceeds slowly, while the reaction of calcium oxide with water to produce calcium hydroxide proceeds rapidly. Therefore, in the process employed in the present invention, by controlling the hydration temperature and time appropriately in the primary hydration step and adding a certain amount of disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate, most of the calcium oxide in the light-calcined dolomite powder can be separated and removed in the form of a solution. After the primary hydration reaction is complete, the primary hydration product mainly consists of magnesium oxide, magnesium hydroxide, small amounts of calcium oxide, calcium hydroxide, and other impurity compounds. Magnesium oxide produces magnesium hydroxide under conditions of high reaction temperature and long reaction time, so in the secondary hydration step, the magnesium oxide and calcium oxide in the primary hydration product are converted into magnesium hydroxide and calcium hydroxide by controlling the appropriate hydration temperature and time. The secondary hydration product mainly consists of magnesium hydroxide, small amounts of calcium hydroxide, and other impurity compounds.

[0016] Magnesium chloride reacts with calcium hydroxide to produce calcium chloride and magnesium hydroxide. By washing a certain amount of the secondary hydration product with a magnesium chloride solution of a certain mass concentration, the small amount of calcium hydroxide in the secondary hydration product can be separated and removed from the secondary hydration product in the form of calcium chloride solution. After washing, the main components are magnesium hydroxide and a small amount of impurity compounds. This is mixed with a certain amount of ultrapure water according to a solid-liquid ratio and carbonized under appropriate carbonization conditions to produce a magnesium bicarbonate solution and a small amount of other impurity precipitate. After the carbonization reaction is complete, the precipitate is filtered and removed. The resulting carbonized liquid is then pyrolyzed to produce a magnesium carbonate precipitate. After the pyrolysis reaction is complete, the pyrolyzed liquid is filtered, dried, and calcined to obtain silicon steel-grade magnesium oxide with a mass fraction of 99.26%, a hydration rate of 4.16, and a citric acid activity of 56s.

[0017] Therefore, the process for producing silicon steel grade magnesium oxide using dolomite according to the present invention uses dolomite as a raw material and extracts high-purity silicon steel grade magnesium oxide under specific hydration and carbonization conditions. The silicon steel grade magnesium oxide obtained by this process has the advantages of high purity, low production cost, and little residue.

[0020] The technical means of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the drawings and examples.

[0021] In order to clarify the objectives, technical means and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention, the technical means in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, however, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present invention and do not include all the embodiments.

[0022] The present invention provides a process for producing silicon steel-grade magnesium oxide using dolomite. As shown in Figure 1, this process includes the following steps: dolomite is used as raw material. First, the dolomite is crushed and ball-milled, and the ball-milled dolomite powder is sieved through a 100-200 mesh sieve. The sieved dolomite powder is calcined in a tubular furnace at a calcination temperature of 900-1200°C for 2-5 hours to obtain lightly calcined dolomite powder. The calcination reaction in this process is as follows: CaCO3 MgCO3(s)→MgO(s)+CaO(s)+2CO2↑(high temperature) The resulting lightly burned dolomite powder is then subjected to primary hydration at a solid-liquid ratio of 0.5-1 g / L, while simultaneously adding 2-3 g of disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate. The hydration temperature is 50-70°C, the hydration time is 20-40 minutes, and the stirring speed is 500-800 r / min. The primary hydration reaction is as follows: 2MgO(s)+2CaO(s)+2H2O(aq)→MgO(s)+Mg(OH)2(s)↓+Ca(OH)2(s)↓, Ca(OH)2(s)+M gO(s)+Mg(OH)2(s)+EDTA-2Na(aq)→CaEDTA(aq)+MgO(s)+2NaOH(aq)+Mg(OH)2(s)↓ After hydration, the product is filtered to obtain magnesium oxide, magnesium hydroxide, and small amounts of calcium hydroxide and other impurity compounds. The primary hydration product is then dried in a vacuum dryer, after which the dried product is subjected to secondary hydration at a solid-liquid ratio of 1-2 g / L, with a hydration temperature of 90-110°C, a hydration time of 1-3 hours, and a hydration stirring speed of 500-800 r / min. The reaction formula for secondary hydration is as follows: 2MgO(s)+2H2O(aq)→2Mg(OH)2(s)↓, 2CaO(s)+2H2O(aq)→2Ca(OH)2(s)↓.

[0023] After the secondary hydration is completed, the mixture is filtered, washed and vacuum dried to obtain magnesium hydroxide, a small amount of calcium hydroxide and impurity compounds. Prepare a magnesium chloride solution with a mass concentration of 3-6%. Wash an appropriate amount of the secondary hydration product in 200-400 mL of magnesium chloride solution at a washing temperature of 20-30°C, for 0.5-1 hour, and at a stirring speed of 500-800 r / min. The reaction formula for this process is as follows: Ca(OH)2(s)+MgCl2(aq)→CaCl2(aq)+Mg(OH)2(s)↓; The main components of the secondary hydrated product after washing are magnesium hydroxide and a small amount of impurity compounds. The secondary hydrated product after washing is carbonized at a solid-liquid ratio of 5-8 g / L to obtain a magnesium bicarbonate solution. The carbonization temperature is 10-20°C, the carbonization time is 40-60 minutes, and the carbon dioxide flow rate is 0.08-0.2 L·min -1 The carbonization reaction is as follows: Mg(OH)2(s)↓+2CO2↑→Mg(HCO3)2(aq) After the carbonization reaction is complete, the magnesium bicarbonate solution obtained by filtration is subjected to a thermal decomposition reaction to obtain a magnesium carbonate precipitate. The thermal decomposition temperature is 80-100°C, the thermal decomposition time is 0.5-1 hour, and the thermal decomposition stirring speed is 500-800 r / min. The thermal decomposition reaction formula is as follows: Mg(HCO3)2(aq)→MgCO3(s)↓+CO2↑+H2O(aq) The magnesium carbonate precipitate obtained by the thermal decomposition reaction is calcined under a nitrogen atmosphere at a temperature of 900-1100°C for 2-4 hours to obtain silicon steel grade magnesium oxide. The calcination reaction is as follows: MgCO3(s)↓→MgO(s)+CO2↑(high temperature)

[0024] The following specific examples illustrate this process.

The reaction temperature is 25°C, the reaction time is 1 hour, and the stirring speed is 750 r / min. After the reaction is complete, the product is filtered, washed, and vacuum dried to obtain magnesium hydroxide containing a small amount of impurity compounds. S4: The obtained magnesium hydroxide containing a small amount of impurity compounds was carbonized at a solid-liquid ratio of 5 g / L, with a carbonization temperature of 21°C, a carbonization time of 1 hour, and a carbon dioxide flow rate of 0.1 L min -1 After the reaction is completed, the solution is filtered to obtain a magnesium hydrogen carbonate solution.

[0040] A comparison of the final products obtained in Example 3 and Comparative Example 3 confirmed that the purity of the product obtained in Example 3 was higher than that of Comparative Example 3. This indicates that a high product yield can be ensured only under appropriate carbon dioxide flow rate conditions in the carbonization step. The reason why the residue production rate in Comparative Example 3 is lower than that in Example 3 is that if the carbon dioxide flow rate in the carbonization step is too fast, there will be an excess of carbon dioxide during the carbonization step, and the calcium carbonate precipitate produced by the reaction of calcium hydroxide and carbon dioxide will be converted into a calcium bicarbonate solution by the excess carbon dioxide. This reduces the amount of calcium carbonate precipitate produced, and the residue production rate decreases.

[0041] Therefore, the process for producing silicon steel grade magnesium oxide using dolomite of the present invention uses dolomite as a raw material and extracts silicon steel grade magnesium oxide under specific hydration and complexation conditions, and the obtained silicon steel grade magnesium oxide has the advantages of high purity, low production costs, and little residue.

[0042] It should be noted that the above-mentioned embodiments are for explaining the technical means of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, those skilled in the art can still make modifications or equivalent substitutions to the technical means of the present invention, and it is clear that even after such modifications or substitutions, the modified technical means still fall within the technical scope of the present invention.
