Monitoring and possible reduction of HF in stack flue gases from ceramic tiles

HF (hydrogen fluoride) emission control is one of the critical environmental parameters in the firing of ceramic materials at peak temperatures higher than 1000 °C. In this study, in-stack concentrations of HF were monitored on-line with laser-based equipment during the fast firing of ceramic tiles in continuous industrial roller hearth kilns under standard kiln operating conditions.Three different ceramic tile compositions: porous red-body wall tiles, red-body stoneware tiles, and porcelain tiles were fired in industrial kilns customarily used to manufacture these types of tiles, modifying the heating rate and tile dry bulk density. The in-stack concentrations of HF can be explained on the basis of tile HF adsorption and emission processes in the kiln preheating and firing zones, analysed in previous studies.The methodology used in this study has significant advantages for industrial studies compared with previous methodologies based primarily on laboratory-scale studies and analysis of solid material. The main advantages are: (a) rapid response, allowing abrupt changes in the HF emission to be studied; and (b) direct measurement of the in-stack concentration of HF, which is the most common parameter used as a legal limit for industrial emission control.The study shows that tile HF adsorption in the preheating zone is very important. It also shows that HF stack emissions can vary significantly in continuous kilns depending on whether glazed or unglazed tiles are produced, or important changes occur in production (such as gaps in the kiln feed). The results indicate, furthermore, that HF stack emissions do not decrease significantly when realistic changes are made in industrial operating conditions if these industrial kilns are run at peak temperatures above 1100 °C. The most important reduction in in-stack concentrations of HF is observed when glazed ceramic tiles are fired, so further research in this field can be made in order to reduce HF emissions.     

Studies on the Structure and Properties of Multiphase Al_2O_3 Abrasion-resistant Ceramics

1 INTRODUCTION Due to its high intensity, high hardness, high tem- perature resistance, corrosion resistance and abra- sion resistance, Al2O3 abrasion-resistant ceramic is widely applied in many fields, such as metallurgy, minerals, electric power, building materials and che- mical engineering as grinding medium in the ball grinder. The properties of Al2O3 ceramic are positi- vely correlated to its purity: the higher the purity is, the better the properties of the product are, but cor- r…     

Study of thermally treated dickite by infrared and micro-Raman spectroscopy using curve-fitting technique

The products of dickite heated in air at 1000 to 1300°C were studied using curve-fitting of transmission and photoacoustic infrared and micro-Raman spectra. The spectra were compared with those of mullite, Al-spinel, corundum, cristobalite, amorphous silica and meta-dickite. Bands that characterize crystalline phases appeared at 1100°C and became stronger with increasing temperature. Mullite, Al-spinel, corundum and amorphous silica were identified by their characteristic bands. The characteristic IR bands of cristobalite overlap those of mullite and amorphous silica, and its presence was therefore established from intensity ratios of the appropriate bands. The research clearly demonstrated the advantage of using curve-fitting for the identification of high temperature phases in the study of the thermal treatment of kaolin-like minerals by infrared and Raman spectroscopy. This technique seems to be a useful method for materials analysis in the ceramic industry.This revised version was published online in November 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Thermal transformations up to 1200 °C of Al-pillared montmorillonite precursors prepared by different OH–Al polymers

Aluminum-pillared montmorillonites are useful materials for their application as catalysts, adsorbents and ceramic composites. The precursor is a pillared montmorillonite that is not thermally stabilized. The precursor preparation methods, textural properties and catalytic activity have been extensively investigated, but comparatively, studies concerning their thermal transformations at high temperature are limited. In this work, precursors were prepared using two types of montmorillonites, Cheto (Ch) and Wyoming (W), and using two different OH–Al polymer sources: hydrolyzed (H) and commercial (C) solutions. Structural and thermal transformations of the precursors with heating up to 1200 °C were determined by X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric analysis. Thermal analysis of these precursors below 600 °C revealed the influence of OH–Al polymers from the two solutions. The major phases developed at 1200 °C from the original montmorillonites were mullite for W and cordierite for Ch. The content of these phases depended on the aluminum in the octahedral sheet of the pristine montmorillonites. Amorphous phase, cristobalite, spinel, sapphirine and others phases were also found. The intercalation of OH–Al polymers in montmorillonites caused an increase in amorphous content after treatment at 1030 °C; however, it favored mullite development above 1100 °C. Although total aluminum content of both W and Ch precursors was similar, the transformation to mullite was directly related to the octahedral aluminum/magnesium ratio. The phase composition of the products at 1200 °C was not dependent on the type of intercalated OH–Al polymers. The increase in mullite content of the thermally treated precursors contributes to its possible application as advanced ceramic products.     

Mullite-Alumina Composites Prepared by Sol-Gel

Ceramic composite gels in the mullite-alumina system (with mullite phase contents ranging from 20 to 100 wt%) were prepared by sol-gel in acid media and using a water/alkoxide molar ratio of 4. Powders were uniaxially pressed to obtain discs.The effect of heat treatment on the materials was followed by thermal analysis and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The crystalline phases formed from the gels were dependent upon the sample composition and the heat treatment temperature. For samples with composition close to the stoichiometric mullite composition the crystallization of mullite was observed after heat treatment at temperatures 900°C, and corundum appeared at higher temperatures. For samples with higher alumina contents mullite formation together with the spinel phase was observed at the lower heat treatment temperatures, while mullite, silimanite, corundum, and other transient phases of alumina were also detected at higher temperatures. The densities and microstructures of materials sintered at 1400°C were studied. Densification of the samples was low due to the agglomeration of the powders, as confirmed by scanning electron microscopy.     

The flame photometric determination of calcium in phosphate,carbonate, and silicate rocks

Synthesis of mullite from technogenic materials and pyrophyllite

Pyrophyllite introduced into a ceramic batch prepared from the gravity tailings of zircon-ilmenite ore raises the mullite formation temperature by 50–80°C and increases the mullite content of the resulting material. The first stage of the synthesis yields non-acid-resistant mullite. The early formation and rapid buildup of mullite are due to the formation of small amounts of a liquid phase. Large amounts of the liquid phase (>50%) do not favor mullite buildup because they heal lattice defects and thus hamper sintering.     

Effects of BaF2 on Preparing Mullite with Sludge from the Aluminum Profile Factory and Pyrophyllite

In this study, sludge from the aluminum profile factory and pyrophyllite were used as major raw materials to prepare mullite. Through determining optimum formula, the optimum calcination temperature and optimum temperature retention time as well as the effects of BaF2 mineralizer on the crystal structure, microstructure and properties of mullite were studied and the optimum BaF2 mineralizer dosage was determined. With XRD and SEM methods, the crystal structure and microstructure of each sample were characterized. With Rietveld Quantification method, crystal phase content in each sample was determined and properties of each sample were tested. Based on the comprehensive analysis result, it was determined that optimum BaF2 dosage was 0.5%, the fairly good calcination temperature was 1550 ℃, and the corresponding mullite solid solution content was 95.8%.

The impacts of different formulas on the structure and properties of the multiphase material were investigated. With XRD and SEM analyses, for each sample, the crystal structure and microstructure were characterized, the crystalline phase content and cell parameters were determined with Rietveld Quantification software, and the properties were tested. The comparative optimal formula determined was calcinated chamotte of 80wt% and calcinated sludge of 20wt%; and its corresponding bending strength and retention rate of bending strength after a thermal shock were 29.74 MPa and 80.15%, respectively.
