The preparation method of calcium carbonate superfine powder
The present invention relates to a kind of method of utilizing the rotating bed super gravity field device to prepare calcium carbonate superfine powder.
Lime carbonate is widely used in many industries such as coating, printing ink, medicine, rubber, plastics, papermaking, microelectronics, automobile.In recent years, the development along with super-refinement, structure complicated and the sufacing of lime carbonate makes the using value of calcium carbonate superfine powder improve significantly.
At present, the common method for preparing calcium carbonate superfine powder in the world is normal gravity field carborization, adopt usually earth gravity after the match stirring tank or bubble tower as carbonization reactor, with CO
2Be passed into and fill Ca (OH)
2Carry out carburizing reagent in the carbonization still of emulsion or the tower, generally finish the preparation of calcium carbonate superfine powder by adding additives such as crystal control agent.Because the rate of mass transfer between the gas-liquid solid phase is slower in stirring tank or bubble tower, it is poor that microcosmic mixes, thereby there is following shortcoming in prepared particulate product: 1, particle diameter generally at 0.1 μ m-several μ m (referring to Chinese patent 93108625.6, Japanese Patent 93,228,730 and 93,221,634); 2, carbonization time is long, often needs several hrs, and production efficiency is low, energy consumption big (referring to Chinese patent 93108625.6, the Huadong Chemical College journal is rolled up 5 page 550-556 of 19 phase); 3, size-grade distribution is even inadequately.The raising and the industrial applications of calcium carbonate product grade and quality have been hindered.Stirring tank or bubble tower take up space also bigger in addition.
Purpose of the present invention: the microcosmic of strengthening carbonization process under super gravity field mixes and the microcosmic mass transfer process, under not additivated situation, can reach the purpose that makes calcium carbonate granule ultramicronising, even particle size distribution, shortening carbonization time.
The invention main points: calcium carbonate superfine powder preparation method of the present invention, comprise the postprocessing working procedures of carburizing reagent and product, adopt the rotating bed super gravity field device to replace conventional stirring tank or bubble tower reactor as carburizing reagent.To contain CO
2Gas with contain Ca (OH)
2Lime emulsion feed rotating bed by inlet mouth and fluid inlet respectively, carburizing reagent takes place in the protruded packing layer of bed, emulsion after reaction is discharged by the rotating bed discharge gate.Wherein, the rotating speed of rotating bed rotor is 100-10000rpm, and the flow of gas is with the clean CO of standard state
2Meter is controlled at 0.1-10m
3/ hKgCaO.
The above-mentioned CO that contains
2Gas can be commercially pure CO
2Or CO
2The mixed gas of content 〉=10%.
Method of the present invention does not have particular requirement to the temperature of carburizing reagent, but with 10-90 ℃ for well.
The rotating speed of rotating bed rotor is 200-2000rpm preferably.
The flow of gas is with the clean CO of standard state
2Meter preferably is controlled at 0.2-4.8m
3/ hKgCaO.
Emulsion from discharge gate is discharged turns back to rotating bed through the circulation storage tank, continues reaction, through 5-30min (minute), the pH value of emulsion becomes 7-8, shows that carbonization is complete, product enters postprocessing working procedures such as filtration, drying, obtains calcium carbonate superfine powder.This is semi-batch preparation technology of the present invention.
Emulsion from discharge gate is discharged also can directly enter postprocessing working procedures such as separation, filtration, drying, obtains calcium carbonate superfine powder.This is continous way preparation technology of the present invention.
In carbonation reaction, add dispersion agent, crystal control agent, can make the further refinement of particle, the size distribution that narrows, and control CaCO
3The crystalline shape.
The calcium carbonate superfine powder that makes through method of the present invention, median size can be controlled in 10-100nm, and size distribution is even, and carbonization time shortens 5-30 times than the method for normal gravity field, improve the grade of production efficiency and product greatly, dwindled the shared space of reactor simultaneously.
