Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce a cost and to lower a heating temp. without using highly corrosive materials and without generating drastic materials by reducing the zinc oxide in carbonization char to zinc with a reducing gas and evaporating the zinc. CONSTITUTION:Waste tires are thermally decomposed to oil-components and the carbonization char in a carbonization furnace 10. The evaporated oil-components are liquefied in a condenser 12 and the liquid is recovered in an oil recovering device 14. The gaseous components which cannot be liquefied in the condenser 13 are introduced to a secondary combustion furnace 16, where the components are burned. The waste gases thereof are treated in a waste gas treating device 18 and are released into the atm. The waste tire carbonization char obtd. by carbonization is pulverized to a prescribed grain size in an iron removing device 20 and after the metallic components are removed therefrom, the pulverized char is washed with water and is dried in a dryer 22. The dried char is charged into a dezincification furnace 24 containing a reducing gaseous atmosphere, where the ZnO remaining in the char is reduced to Zn with the reducing gases, such as CO and H2; thereafter, Zn is evaporated and the dezincification of the char is executed. The carbonization char from which the zinc is removed is subjected to an activation treatment in an activation furnace 26 and is then cooled by a cooler 28, by which the active carbon as the product is obtd.

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, with the widespread use of automobiles, the number of used rubber tires, so-called waste tires, has dramatically increased, and the disposal method of waste tires has become a big problem. Various methods for effectively using the waste tires have been studied. There is. Then, as one of the effective utilization methods of the waste tire, it is considered to dry-distill the waste tire to extract an oil component and to use the carbon black in the rubber remaining as char as the activated carbon.

However, rubber tires contain zinc oxide (zinc white = ZnO) of several percent, and when the tire is carbonized, about 5 to 7% by weight remains in the carbonized char. This zinc oxide is stable in itself and does not elute from the char in a normal atmosphere having a neutral pH, so that it does not cause a problem. However, zinc oxide easily elutes into acidic or alkaline liquids, and when waste tire carbonization char is used as activated carbon for water treatment, it may elute from activated carbon and cause a problem of heavy metal contamination. . Therefore, the activated carbon obtained by directly activating the waste tire dry-distilled char has limited uses, and development of a method for removing zinc oxide from the dry-distilled char has been strongly desired in order to expand the use.

Therefore, as a method for removing zinc oxide from waste tire dry-distilled char, an activation treatment for enhancing the adsorption capacity of dry-distilled char is performed, and then the char is immersed in hydrochloric acid having a concentration of about 1 to 10% to form zinc oxide ZnO. It has been proposed to elute and separate carbon dioxide as zinc chloride ZnCl 2 in hydrochloric acid, and then wash the dry distillation char with water (JP-A-6-144819).

However, in the method for removing zinc oxide described in the above publication, hydrochloric acid having a strong corrosive property is used as a solution for eluting zinc oxide, so that it is necessary to handle it with sufficient care. . Moreover, the eluted ZnCl 2 itself corresponds to the poisonous substance and the deleterious substance listed in Appendix 2 of Article 2 of the Deleterious Substances Control Law. Therefore, in recovering ZnCl 2 from the waste liquid after the dezincification treatment, an expensive treatment facility is required from the viewpoint of pollution prevention, and a large treatment cost is required. Further, the above method requires washing with water and drying after hydrochloric acid treatment,
It requires many steps and costs.

The sublimation temperature of O is extremely high at 1975 ° C., and a high temperature refractory furnace is required to sublime ZnO, which is not practical. In addition, dry distillation char is treated with water (H 2 O) or carbon dioxide (C
It is considered that dezincification is carried out in an oxidizing atmosphere such as O 2 ), but zinc cannot be removed unless the temperature is higher than 1300 ° C, and there is a limit in reducing the residual zinc concentration. Moreover, since the treatment is performed at a high temperature of 1300 ° C. or higher, the operating cost is high, the pain of the furnace is severe, and the life is short.

The dry distillation treatment of a waste tire is carried out by a conventional method generally used, for example, in an inert gas atmosphere (for example, nitrogen gas atmosphere) under normal pressure, the waste tire is heated to a temperature of 4 ° C.
It is heated to 50 to 550 ° C to be pyrolyzed. The char obtained by dry distillation is crushed and iron-removed, then washed with water to remove impurities, and dried at a temperature of about 400 ° C. for 1 to 3 hours to remove water. The reduction of ZnO to Zn may be performed on the dry-distilled char immediately after drying when using the dry-distilled char as activated carbon, or may be performed after the activation treatment for enhancing the adsorptivity. When the dezincing treatment is performed immediately after drying, the dry distillation char is then activated and cooled to obtain a product (activated carbon). Further, when the dezincification treatment (reduction to Zn, evaporation) is performed after the activation treatment, the char can be cooled immediately after the dezincification treatment to obtain a product.

After the reduction treatment as described above, the dry-distilled char is immersed in an acid having an appropriate concentration (for example, 10% hydrochloric acid), zinc in the char is eluted with the acid, and colorimetric analysis is performed to perform char. The amount of residual zinc therein was measured. As a result, the amount of residual zinc in the char before the reduction treatment was 5 to 7% by weight. However, as shown in FIG.
In Example 2, the amount of residual zinc was 0.1% by weight, and in Example 2, it was 0.03 to 0.08% by weight, and the amount of residual zinc in the char could be extremely reduced. The activated carbon obtained by activating the dezincified char in the activation furnace 26 made of a rotary kiln has an iodine adsorption capacity of 700 mg / g and a specific surface area of activated carbon of 520 m 2 / g. there were.

As described above, according to the present invention, since zinc oxide is reduced to zinc in a waste gas dry distillation char in a reducing gas atmosphere, and then zinc is evaporated, the corrosiveness is high. The amount of residual zinc present in the char can be extremely reduced without using substances or generating deleterious substances, and the waste tire carbonization char can be used as activated carbon for water treatment. Also,
Since zinc oxide is reduced to zinc and evaporated, the treatment temperature for removing zinc in char can be significantly lowered, and the facility cost and the treatment cost can be reduced.
