Through the change of the step temperature, the pores inside and outside the molding material are preliminarily formed, the defect that the molding material is cracked due to the rapid change of the temperature is avoided under the heating of the step temperature, and the carbonization material is ensured to have favorable quality and strength.
In addition, in the process of step temperature rise, besides providing the continuous growth of the basic pore structure of the carbon particles for coal pyrolysis and carbonization, the oxides of metals such as Fe and the like in the carbon powder can play a catalytic role in the carbonization process, and the oxides cooperate with each other to accelerate the coal pyrolysis, promote the rapid decomposition of tar-like substances generated in the pyrolysis process, and promote the gasification activation reaction of water molecules, carbon dioxide and other activator molecules formed in the carbonization process on the surfaces of the carbon particles, so that the development type pore structure is more favorably formed among the coal particles, that is, compared with the traditional activated carbon prepared by using raw coal without adding the recycled carbon powder, the activated carbon prepared by adding the recycled activated carbon powder into the raw coal not only accelerates the carbonization process, but also completes the partial activation of the carbon particles formed in the carbonization process by the raw coal. In addition, through high-temperature discharging, the carbonized material can have certain activation conditions when entering a subsequent activation process, and meanwhile, oxides such as Fe in the recovered carbon powder can catalyze and accelerate the activation reaction between the carbon particles and the gasifying agent in the subsequent activation process, so that the time required by the activation process of the carbonized material is shorter, and the efficiency is higher.
According to one embodiment of the invention, the carbonized material is subjected to an activation reaction with water vapor in an activation furnace at the temperature of 900-950 ℃ to obtain the activated carbon. Through the arrangement, the proportion of the mesopores and the macropores of the carbonized material is improved, the formation of the pores can improve the adsorption speed and the desorption speed of the activated carbon in the using process, so that the activated carbon has excellent desulfurization and denitrification performances.

As can be seen from table 1, the content of the recycled carbon powder is set to 1 wt% to 30 wt%, the recycled carbon powder can be recycled to the greatest extent, and the index of the activated carbon prepared from the recycled carbon powder is greater than or equal to 330mg/g in iodine value, greater than or equal to 97% in abrasion resistance, greater than or equal to 40kgf in compressive strength, greater than or equal to 15.3mg/g in desulfurization value, and greater than or equal to 53.7% in denitration rate. In contrast, in example 12, in the case where no carbon powder was used, the iodine value, desulfurization value and denitration rate were all decreased, that is, the iodine value, desulfurization value and denitration rate of activated carbon prepared by mixing raw material coal with recovered carbon powder as one of the raw materials of activated carbon were better, which was related to the fact that the recovered carbon powder itself had a porous structure and that the carbon powder contained oxides of metals such as Fe, which were capable of catalyzing and accelerating the carbonization of raw material coal and the activation reaction of carbon particles. The porous structure of the recovered carbon powder and the attached metal oxides such as Fe are cooperated with each other in the coal carbonization pyrolysis and carbon particle activation processes, so that the development of the porous structure in the activated carbon is promoted, the specific surface area and the desulfurization and denitrification performance of the activated carbon are greatly improved, as shown in examples 1 to 11, the iodine value, the desulfurization value and the denitrification rate are gradually improved along with the increase of the specific gravity of the recovered carbon powder in the first material, and when the carbon powder accounts for 16 wt%, the high-grade activated carbon can be obtained. Therefore, the first material in the invention adopts the recycled carbon powder to replace part of the raw material coal, thereby not only saving the cost of the raw material and producing the activated carbon with qualified index, but also having higher desulfurization and denitrification performance. In the invention, the content of the carbon powder can be seen from the index condition, so that the content of the carbon powder is not only 1 wt% -30 wt%, but also can be more than 30 wt%.
Examples 13 to 15
In addition, to further illustrate the advantages of the activated carbon prepared according to the present invention, experimental statistics were performed on the performance of the activated carbon prepared under the same conditions as in example 1, using the undersize waste (unqualified material, containing trace amounts of residual volatiles and trace amounts of metal oxide impurities) of the fresh activated carbon in example 12 of the present invention as a raw material, using coal tar as a binder, and using other preparation processes and control parameters, as follows in table 2:
Figure BDA0002494130580000111
Figure BDA0002494130580000121
TABLE 2
From the above table, it can be seen that the activated carbon prepared by using the crushed material of the activated carbon sieve as the raw material can obtain the activated carbon with a high iodine value, but the wear resistance and compressive strength of the activated carbon are obviously lower than those of the activated carbon generated in the present invention, the surface of the activated carbon has obvious cracks, the compressive strength is low, and the desulfurization value is not high, and the activated carbon belongs to an unqualified product compared with the national standard GB/T30201-2013 coal-quality granular activated carbon for desulfurization and denitrification. Indicating that the porous structure of the crushed material under the active carbon sieve can not generate synergistic action due to the lack of the raw material coal, and therefore, the performance index of the obtained active carbon product can not be improved.
Examples 16 to 20
In addition, to further illustrate the advantages of the activated carbon prepared according to the present invention, experimental statistics were performed on the properties of the activated carbon prepared under the same conditions as in example 1, using the undersize waste (off-spec material, containing trace amounts of residual volatiles and metal oxide impurities) of the fresh activated carbon and the raw coal as the raw materials, the coal tar as the binder, and other preparation processes and control parameters in example 12 of the present invention, as shown in table 3 below:
Figure BDA0002494130580000122
as can be seen from the above table, the iodine value, desulfurization value and denitration rate of the activated carbon prepared by using the crushed material of the activated carbon sieve and the raw material coal as the raw materials are still lower than the corresponding indexes of the activated carbon prepared by using the embodiments 1 to 11 of the present embodiment. It is demonstrated that even if the activated carbon is prepared by using the crushed material of the activated carbon sieve and the raw material coal, the performance index of the obtained activated carbon product is still insufficient.
Based on the comparison, in each example, the crushed material of the activated carbon sieve and the carbon powder generated by the flue gas purification adopted in the invention have different influences on the performance of the prepared activated carbon finished product. Through statistics of measured values of components in the crushed materials (fresh material waste carbon powder) screened by the activated carbon and the carbon powder generated by the flue gas purification adopted by the invention, the measured values of the iron oxide are most obviously different.
As in table 4 below:
fresh material waste carbon powder Carbon powder produced by flue gas purification
Iron oxide (%) 1.35 10.7
Therefore, the carbon powder generated by the flue gas purification adopted in the invention has a large content of ferric oxide, so that the pores of the activated carbon prepared by the carbon powder are effectively increased, and the effects of improving the iodine value and the desulfurization and denitrification performances are further achieved.
Examples 21 to 23
In addition, to further illustrate the advantages of the activated carbon prepared according to the present invention, experimental statistics were performed on the properties of the activated carbon prepared under the same conditions as in example 1, using only carbon powder generated in the flue gas purification process as a raw material, coal tar as a binder, and other preparation processes and control parameters, as shown in table 5 below:
Figure BDA0002494130580000131
as can be seen from table 5, compared with the activated carbon produced in the present invention, the activated carbon produced only from the carbon powder produced in the flue gas purification process can obtain activated carbon with high iodine value, but the wear resistance and compressive strength are significantly low, which easily causes significant cracks in the activated carbon, and the desulfurization value is also not high, and thus the activated carbon belongs to an unqualified product. The lack of raw material coal indicates that even the carbon powder produced in the flue gas purification process provides a porous structure and metal oxides, the synergistic effect cannot be exerted, and therefore, the performance index of the obtained activated carbon product cannot be improved.
In addition, the iodine value of the carbon powder generated in the flue gas purification process adopted by the invention is within the range of 250-500mg/g, the ash content is within the range of 12-20%, the volatile matter is within the range of 10-20%, and the indexes obtained after sampling detection are shown in the following table 6:
TABLE 6 carbon powder index generated during flue gas purification
Figure BDA0002494130580000141
To further illustrate the advantages of the carbon powder used in the present invention for preparing activated carbon, the activated carbon preparation time and the activated carbon index performance were experimentally counted according to the different addition amounts of the carbon powder, as shown in table 7 below:
TABLE 7 comparison of different activation times for indexes of activated carbon containing carbon powder
Figure BDA0002494130580000142
As can be seen from Table 7, the iodine value is similar in group c compared with group a, and the activation time is shortened by half, while the activated carbon performance is better on the basis that the activation time is reduced to half of the original time with the increase of the carbon powder content in group e and group g.
In the scheme of the invention, the carbon powder with the index shown in the table 6 contains a large amount of porous structures formed by mesopores and micropores, and in addition, the recovered carbon powder contains oxides such as Fe metal and the like, which can be cooperated with coal macromolecules in raw material coal to promote pyrolysis of the raw material coal, accelerate decomposition of generated coal tar, catalyze activation reaction of carbon particles, promote development of the porous structures in the activated carbon, and greatly improve the specific surface area and desulfurization and denitrification performance of the activated carbon, so that the carbon powder adopted in the invention can improve the iodine value of products and shorten the activation time.
The foregoing is merely exemplary of particular aspects of the present invention and devices and structures not specifically described herein are understood to be those of ordinary skill in the art and are intended to be implemented in such conventional ways.
The above description is only one embodiment of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the present invention, and various modifications and changes may be made by those skilled in the art. Any modification, equivalent replacement, or improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
