添加垃圾焚烧飞灰对烧结矿冶金性能的影响

焚烧已经成为处理城市生活垃圾的一种主要方法,而焚烧后所产生的垃圾飞灰由于其含有大量的有害物质,处理较为困难。为了探究冶金烧结法处理垃圾焚烧飞灰的可行性,将添加3%垃圾飞灰的冷固小球与其他矿石原料混合,进行烧结实验,并对添加垃圾焚烧飞灰后烧结矿的冶金性能进行了研究。实验结果表明,与基准样相比,烧结矿添加垃圾焚烧飞灰后其转鼓强度平均提高了9.51%,抗磨指数平均提高了9.47%,而其落下强度平均降低了3.79%。少量添加垃圾焚烧飞灰使得烧结矿的还原性提高了3.29%,而软融性和低温还原粉化性略微有所下降。总体来说,垃圾焚烧飞灰的添加并没有恶化烧结矿的冶金性能,且不影响后续冶炼工作的进行。

城市生活垃圾焚烧飞灰的熔融分离处理

焚烧法处理城市生活垃圾已在世界先进发达国家广泛采用。垃圾焚烧飞灰含有大量的重金属,必须进行合理安全处置。在分析城市生活垃圾焚烧飞灰的物理化学性质基础上,研究了垃圾焚烧飞灰固化成型、熔融分离的无害化处理新工艺。实验结果表明：飞灰固化成球的适宜粘结剂为5%～7%消石灰,养护时间为10～12 d,固化球强度达0.24 kg/cm²以上,可以满足运输和熔化分离要求;固化后的飞灰在1 300℃左右熔融分离后,重金属的分离效果好,达到97%以上,可达到无害化处理标准;对1 300℃和1 400℃熔融分离后熔渣的重金属浸出毒性测试显示,重金属浸出毒性问题可以完全解除。研究结果表明,采用飞灰固化-熔融分离工艺处理城市生活垃圾焚烧飞灰是可行的。     

垃圾焚烧飞灰物理化学性质的实验研究

应用激光粒度粒形分析仪、灰熔融性测定仪、原子吸收光谱仪和XRD等仪器手段对国内2种垃圾焚烧飞灰的密度、颗粒特性、熔点、成分和晶相结构等物理化学性质进行了详细的研究。研究发现，2种灰样颗粒直径的数量积分分布非常接近，其中基本没有超过40 μm的颗粒。由于垃圾焚烧飞灰在化学成分上存在的差异导致了其熔点有很大的不同。此外，XRD结果显示不同来源的飞灰其晶相结构存在较大的差别，这可能与垃圾的来源和焚烧工艺以及烟气处理方法有关。实验结果为飞灰无害化低温烧结工艺的选择和运行参数的制定提供了依据。     

生活垃圾焚烧飞灰重金属药剂稳定化研究

采用几种不同厂家提供的有机重金属飞灰螯合剂和一种无机飞灰稳定剂对湖北某垃圾焚烧厂及四川某垃圾焚烧厂所产飞灰分别进行了稳定化处理的研究。结果表明,就2种飞灰而言,有机螯合剂在处理效果上较无机药剂具有一定的优势,为使飞灰处理后的浸出毒性低于《生活垃圾填埋场污染控制标准》(GB16889-2008)所规定的限值,满足进入垃圾填埋场分区填埋的要求,不同种类的有机螯合剂添加量在1%~5%之间,各有机螯合剂的稳定效果与其分子结构和分子大小的关系密切。而某无机药剂在添加剂量为15%时仅能使四川某厂所产生的飞灰勉强达标。从经济上考虑,使用有机螯合剂的药剂成本费用也低于某无机药剂,同时对比实验发现,飞灰初始浸出毒性的大小,飞灰粒径大小,飞灰的物理性状对螯合过程具有一定的影响。

De novo formation characteristics of dioxins in the dry zone of an iron ore sintering bed

The objectives of this work are to understand the details of the mechanism of dioxin formation in the part of a sintering bed termed the dry zone, and to obtain ideas on how to prevent their formation. Sinter mixtures of various composition types were heated in a packed bed reactor, and dioxins in the outlet gas and in the sinter mixture residue were measured. The dioxin formation potential of a simple sinter mixture composed of iron ore, coke and limestone was markedly lower than that of fly ash from a municipal solid waste incinerator (MSWI). In consideration of this result, a series of experiments were conducted using a sinter mixture impregnated with CuCl2. Experimental results showed that dioxin formation was temperature-dependent in the range of 300-550 degrees C, with the maximum observed at around 300 degrees C, which was quite similar to that of fly ash from the MSWI. The homologue distribution of PCDD/Fs in gas and solid reflected the possible difference in carbonaceous materials in coke and activated coke. Gaseous hydrogen chloride acted as a chlorinating reagent for dioxin formation.

Engineering and environmental properties of thermally treated mixtures containing MSWI fly ash and low-cost additives

An experimental work was carried out to investigate the feasibility of application of a sintering process to mixtures composed of Municipal Solid Waste Incinerator (MSWI) fly ash and low-cost additives (waste from feldspar production and cullet). The proportions of the three constituents were varied to adjust the mixture compositions to within the optimal range for sintering. The material was compacted in cylindrical specimens and treated at 1100 and 1150 degrees C for 30 and 60 min. Engineering and environmental characteristics including weight loss, dimensional changes, density, open porosity, mechanical strength, chemical stability and leaching behavior were determined for the treated material, allowing the relationship between the degree of sintering and both mixture composition and treatment conditions to be singled out. Mineralogical analyses detected the presence of neo-formation minerals from the pyroxene group. Estimation of the extent of metal loss from the samples indicated that the potential for volatilization of species of Pb, Cd and Zn is still a matter of major concern when dealing with thermal treatment of incinerator ash.

Effect of thermal processing on the characteristics of incineration fly ash

This work investigated the possibilities of immobilizing incineration fly ash by applying different processing methods. Direct sintering of fly ash at 1050 degrees C produced material with increased resistance to leaching; however, the high content of halides prevented the achievement of appropriate strength. Fly ash melting and casting into metallic moulds resulted in the formation of glass with good chemical resistivity and mechanical properties, which were further improved by devitrification, and the formation of glass-ceramics. The most successful combination of strength and resistance to leaching was obtained by a process consisting of fly ash melting, by pouring the melt into water, then grinding, and sintering without additives at 850-950 degrees C. In this way, a material was produced that cannot only be landfilled as a stabilised and non-reactive waste in landfills for non-hazardous wastes, but can also be utilized as a valuable material for manufacturing useful products. This article provided valuable results for policy-makers in Slovenia, about the handling fly ash from incineration plants. Implications: Fly ash from an incineration plant was thermally treated using several processing routes. Ash-melting, by pouring the melt into water and sintering, produced glass-ceramics having an optimal combination of strength and resistance to leaching that can find applications as useful products. These results provide important data for policy makers in Slovenia regarding the building of incineration plants, and handling the solid-waste products, especially fly ash.     

Chlorobenzenes removal from municipal solid waste incineration fly ash by surfactant-assisted column flotation

The organic contaminants in municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) fly ash, including chlorinated aromatic compounds and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, have high toxicity and a potential negative impact on the environment. An effective and low energy consumption technique to remove the organic contaminants from MSWI fly ash is required urgently. Organic contaminants, such as chlorobenzenes (CBzs), in MSWI fly ash are known to become enriched in the unburnt carbon (UC) fraction. It is proposed that removal of UC from fly ash will result in the effective removal of most organic micropollutants. In this research, we use a technique of surfactant-assisted column flotation to decontaminate MSWI fly ash by removal of the CBzs-enriched UC from MSWI fly ash. We find that 39.8% of CBzs can be removed from fresh MSWI fly ash with 61.7% UC removal efficiency, whereas only 33.2% of CBzs can be removed from weathered MSWI fly ash with a low UC removal efficiency of 33.7%. By adding a mixture of two kinds of surfactants: sorbitan mono-oleate and polyoxyethylene (20) sorbitan mono-oleate to the weathered fly ash, 47.0% of CBzs were removed at the hydrophile lipophile balance value of 13.5, while the UC removal efficiency increased to 49.0%. The results show that surfactants can enhance CBzs and UC removal efficiencies during the column flotation process. Higher CBzs and UC removal efficiencies can be expected by further optimizing the conditions of surfactant-assisted column flotation.     

Limitations of the toxicity characteristic leaching procedure for providing a conservative estimate of landfilled municipal solid waste incineration ash leaching

Limitations of the toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP) for simulating pollutant leaching from wastes disposed of in full-scale landfills are well understood in the waste management profession; the TCLP solution has a lower pH and greater organic acid content than typical landfill leachate. The TCLP serves its intended regulatory objective, however, as long as a conservative estimate of leaching is provided. Here, we examine TCLP’s ability to represent worst-case leaching conditions for monofilled municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) ash. A critical examination of TCLP’s applicability to MSWI ash is especially relevant, as ash management at MSWI facilities often centers on passing TCLP, regardless of environmental risk posed by the ash or its recyclability. Multiple batch leaching tests were conducted on different MSWI ash streams: mixed ash, fly ash, and different size fractions of bottom ash. Batch-test results were compared with leachate simulating MSWI ash monofills. The TCLP did not consistently provide the most conservative estimate of leaching, supporting the need to consider alternative methodologies in future regulatory development.

Implications: This paper analyzes the existing hazardous waste regulatory testing requirement for municipal solid waste incinerator (MSWI) ash management to evaluate whether the TCLP serves its intended purpose in providing the most conservative estimate of landfilled MSWI ash. The results will serve as guidance and motivation for policy makers and the regulatory community to reevaluate the TCLP’s application for characterizing MSWI ash leaching in certain disposal scenarios and could promote consideration of alternative testing procedures based upon results of this study. This study serves to promote representative and accurate quantification of leaching risk from MSWI ash.     

Comparison of CaO’s effect on the fate of heavy metals during thermal treatment of two typical types of MSWI fly ashes in China

Both grate and fluidized bed incinerators are widely used for MSW incineration in China. CaO addition for removing hazardous emissions from MSWI flue gas changes the characteristics of fly ash and affects the thermal behavior of heavy metals when the ash is reheated. In the present work, two types of MSWI fly ashes, sampled from both grate and fluidized bed incinerators respectively, were thermal treated at 1023–1323 K and the fate of heavy metals was observed. The results show that both of the fly ashes were rich in Ca and Ca-compounds were the main alkaline matter which strongly affected the leaching behavior of heavy metals. Ca was mostly in the forms of Ca(OH)₂ and CaCO₃ in the fly ash from grate incinerator in which nascent fly ash particles were covered by Ca-compounds. In contrast, the content of Ca was lower in the fly ash from fluidized bed incinerator and Ca was mostly in the form of CaSO₄. Chemical reactions among Ca-compounds caused particle agglomeration in thermal treated fly ash from grate incinerator, restraining the heavy metals volatilization. In thermal treated fly ash from fluidized bed incinerator, Ca was converted into aluminosilicates especially at 1323 K which enhanced heavy metals immobilization, decreasing their volatile fractions as well as leaching concentrations. Particle agglomeration hardly affected the leaching behavior of heavy metals. However, it suppressed the leachable-CaCrO₄ formation and lowered Cr leaching concentration.
