Research on the Optimization and Application of the Washing Dechlorination Process for Municipal Solid Waste...

In this paper, the fly ash cyclic gradient washing dechlorination process is systematically studied through experiments, and the effects of process parameters such as liquid-solid ratio, the number of leaching, and process pulping on the dechlorination effect of fly ash are investigated and analyzed with the currently operating three-stage counter-current washing dechlorination process. The experimental results indicate that with the liquid-solid ratio of 3:1, the number of leaching of 4, and the primary process pulping, the chlorine content of washing fly ash is reduced to 0.5-0.6%. The Baume degree in the washing filtrate is increased to 11-12 °Bé, the total amount is reduced by about 15%, and the average turbidity value is ≤5NTU. Meanwhile, the moisture content of the washing fly ash is reduced to 28-30%. By comparing with the actual construction project, it is found that under a disposal capacity of 100 t/d, the cyclic gradient washing dechlorination process can reduce the installed power by 30.3%, the floor space by 32.9%, the treatment volume of washing filtrate by 11.1%, and the drying load by 27.9% compared to the traditional three-stage counter-current washing and dechlorination process.
