Abstract

A curing agent for disposal of municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) fly ash and a preparation method and use method thereof are provided. In the present disclosure, a loofah nanofiber crystal, a rice husk ash (RHA), sodium hydroxide, and water are adopted as raw materials to prepare the curing agent, and the curing agent can effectively realize the safe disposal and curing of heavy metals in an MSWI fly ash. The highest curing rates of the curing agent for heavy metals Pb 2+ , Zn 2+ , Cd 2+ , Cr 3+ , and Cu 2+ can reach 99.7%, 99.4%, 99.5%, 98.7%, and 99.5%, respectively. The special three-dimensional (3D) cross-linked network structure of the loofah nanofiber crystal and the excellent physical and chemical adsorption properties and ion exchange capacity of the RHA are fully used in the curing agent of the present disclosure.

First claim

What is claimed is:

rice husk ash (RHA)
30 to 100 parts;

sodium hydroxide
4 to 10 parts; and

water
60 to 100 parts;

the loofah nanofiber crystal is configured to be adsorbed on a surface of the MSWI fly ash and comprises a plurality of hydrophilic and lipophilic groups and active sites for adsorbing heavy metals in the MSWI fly ash;
the RHA has a specific surface area of 100 m 2 /g and is configured to provide a plurality of nanopores for adsorbing and curing the heavy metals; and
the sodium hydroxide is configured to excite and activate the RHA and to regulate a structure of the loofah nanofiber crystal.

2 . The curing agent for disposal of the MSWI fly ash according to claim 1 , wherein the loofah nanofiber crystal has a diameter of 5 nm to 30 nm and a length of 50 nm to 500 nm.

4 . A preparation method of the curing agent for disposal of the MSWI fly ash according to claim 1 , comprising the following steps:
1) mixing the RHA, the sodium hydroxide, and the water, and subjecting a resulting mixture to an excitation activation reaction to obtain a reaction mixed solution; and 2) dispersing the loofah nanofiber crystal in the reaction mixed solution to obtain the curing agent.

5 . The preparation method according to claim 4 , wherein in step 1), the excitation activation reaction is conducted at 80° C. to 160° C. for 2 h to 6 h.

6 . The preparation method according to claim 5 , wherein in step 2), the dispersing is achieved by an ultrasonic stirring, and the ultrasonic stirring is conducted at a rotational speed of 300 rpm to 500 rpm for 30 minutes to 60 minutes.

7 . A method of obtaining an MSWI fly ash solidified object, comprising: mixing the curing agent according to claim 1 with the MSWI fly ash and stirring a resulting mixture for 3 minutes to 15 minutes to obtain an MSWI fly ash curing slurry and placing the MSWI fly ash curing slurry in a mold, vibrating for compaction, and curing at room temperature to obtain the MSWI fly ash solidified object.

8 . The use-method of obtaining the MSWI fly ash solidified object according to claim 7 , wherein a mass ratio of the curing agent to the MSWI fly ash is (30-120):100.

9 . The curing agent for disposal of the MSWI fly ash according to claim 2 , wherein a content of amorphous SiO 2 in the RHA is higher than or equal to 95.0%.

10 . The preparation method according to claim 4 , wherein the loofah nanofiber crystal has a diameter of 5 nm to 30 nm and a length of 50 nm to 500 nm.

11 . The preparation method according to claim 4 , wherein a content of amorphous SiO 2 in the RHA is higher than or equal to 95.0%.

12 . The method of obtaining the MSWI fly ash solidified object according to claim 7 , wherein the loofah nanofiber crystal has a diameter of 5 nm to 30 nm and a length of 50 nm to 500 nm.
