RESUMO
Conventional melting for disposing municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) fly ash or bottom slag needed high temperature and consumed high energy. High calcium content in fly ash and high silicon content in bottom slag brought them high melting point, respectively. Based on the analysis of chemical composition and phase diagram, suitable contents, namely 30%-40% CaO, 45%-60% SiO2 and 10%-15% Al2O3, were proposed to obtain a lower-melting-point mixture system. When the mass ratio of fly ash to bottom slag was 1:5, lowest melting point can be obtained. It was 1,190 â, lower than that of fly ash (1,448 â) and bottom slag (1,310 â). The toxicity characteristic leaching procedure of slags obtained from low melting treatment met the leaching toxicity of Chinese standard GB 5085.3-2007, and the slags containing about 25 wt% CaO, 10 wt% Al2O3 and 45 wt% SiO2 can be used for preparing CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 glass ceramics. The co-process of fly ash and bottom slag realized the low temperature melting treatment with low energy consumption.
RESUMO
Alkali metal chlorides emitted from sintering flue gas are easily adsorbed on the surface of activated carbon (AC) in the purification process. In this paper, NaCl particles adsorbing onto AC were simulated by impregnation method, and the size and morphology of NaCl particles were similar to those of NaCl-PM10 emitted from sintering flue gas. With the adsorption of NaCl particles, 2-10-µm pores of AC were filled, and the specific surface area of AC decreased. But NaCl led to the increase of acidic functional groups on the surface of AC. When 0.75 wt% NaCl was adsorbed, it was beneficial for AC catalytic denitration (de-NOx), because the chemical reaction was strengthened by acidic functional groups, so it showed a certain promotion of de-NOx efficiency. As 1.5 wt% NaCl and 3 wt% NaCl were adsorbed, NaCl had an inhibitory effect on AC de-NOx, which was because the specific surface area of AC decreased, and the prevention of physical adsorption played a major role. As a result, the de-NOx efficiency of AC adsorbed with 3 wt% NaCl decreased from 40.59 to 23.02% at 150 °C. Therefore, the absorption of NaCl fine particles on AC should not exceed 0.75 wt%.
