The invention relates to a method for extracting
ammonium and modifying electrolytic
manganese residue, and belongs to the field of
environmental protection. The method comprises the steps: mixing the electrolytic
manganese residue with one or more of quick
lime, slake
lime,
carbide slag, steel
slag,
red mud or other alkaline
slag, and heating and calcining the mixture under the condition of 200 to 500 DEG C. By adopting the method, the
disadvantage that pollutants are formed in the heating process of the electrolytic
manganese residue containing two volatile gases such as
nitrogen and
sulfur can be ingeniously avoided, the cementitious activity of the heated modified electrolytic manganese residue can be remarkably improved, and the modified electrolytic manganese residue can be used in
cement factories,
brick factories, concrete mixing plants and the like; more favorable advantages are as follows: the
nitrogen element in the electrolytic manganese residue forms
ammonia gas which is prepared into
ammonia water to be recycled, and the
sulfur element is cured in the residue in a form of
calcium sulfate to be used as a beneficial
cement excitant or
retarder component. By adopting the process, the economical performance and environmental friendliness of an electrolytic manganese residue
pretreatment method can be improved, an important significance for the recycling of the electrolytic manganese residue in China can be realized, the application prospect is wide, and the market value is vast.
