Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、都市ごみや産業廃棄物などの固形廃棄物の焼却あるいは溶融処理によって排出される焼却灰や、排ガス集塵灰等の重金属類を含有する灰の処理方法に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
一般に、都市ごみの焼却処理設備の焼却炉から発生する灰、とくに飛灰は、鉛等の人体に有害な重金属類を含むため、そのまゝでは廃棄することができず、その処理方法の開発が急務となっている。そのためにこれまでに種々の方法が検討されてきた。
【0003】
従来、例えば特開平7−138630号公報に開示されている金属類含有灰の処理技術は、焼却炉からの灰を、一連の湿式処理により、金属種ごとに濃縮し、それぞれ非鉄精練用原料として使用できる程度の濃縮体として回収し、例えば山元の鉱山会社で金属として精練する方法であった。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、上記のような従来法によれば、処理工程が複雑であるだけでなく、抽出作業のために高価な薬品を多量に使用するため、処理コストが非常に高くつくという問題があった。しかも従来のように、焼却炉飛灰から薬品により化学的に重金属の回収を行なう場合、通常は、重金属だけでなく、Al、Ca等が相当量混在するために、純度が著しく低下し、回収物の再利用化を阻害する一因となっているという問題があった。
【0005】
本発明の目的は、上記の従来技術の問題を解決し、簡易な工程で、重金属類の回収を確実に行なうことができ、しかも処理コストが安くつくうえに、回収物の再利用化が可能である、重金属類含有灰の処理方法を提供することにある。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記の目的を達成するために、本発明の請求項1記載による重金属類含有灰の処理方法は、焼却灰等の重金属類を含有する灰に、水を重金属類含有灰100重量部に対して300〜700重量部、および3〜6N濃度の塩酸または硝酸を、使用する塩酸または硝酸が5Nの濃度である場合に、重金属類含有灰100重量部に対して150〜250重量部加え、これらの混合物をボールミル等粉砕機により機械的にかつ粒度1μm以下の粉末が50%以上となるように粉砕を行ないながら、重金属類の抽出を行ない、重金属類含有抽出液を得ることを特徴としている。
【0007】
また、本発明の請求項2記載による重金属類含有灰の処理方法は、上記請求項1の処理方法により得られた重金属類含有抽出液を濾過した後、濾液をイオン交換樹脂またはキレート樹脂に接触させることにより、重金属類を回収することを特徴としている。
【0008】
上記請求項1または2記載の重金属類含有灰の処理方法では、重金属類が、鉛(Pb)、亜鉛(Zn)、クロム(Cr)、マンガン(Mn)、およびカドミウム(Cd)よりなる群の中から選ばれた少なくとも1つの金属である。
【0009】
さらに、本発明の請求項4記載による重金属類含有灰の処理方法は、上記請求項1の処理方法により得られた重金属類含有抽出液を濾過した後、濾液に硫酸を滴下し、生じた重金属類含有固形物を回収することを特徴としている。
【0010】
この請求項4記載の重金属類含有灰の処理方法では、重金属類が鉛(Pb)である。
【0011】
【発明の実施の形態】
つぎに、本発明の実施の形態を、図面を参照して説明する。
【0012】
図1のフローシートは、本発明の請求項1記載による重金属類含有灰の処理方法を示すもので、同図を参照すると、本発明の重金属類含有灰の処理方法は、焼却灰等の重金属類を含有する灰に、水および塩酸または硝酸を加え、これらの混合物をボールミル等粉砕機により機械的にかつ粒度1μm以下の粉末が50%以上となるように粉砕を行ないながら、重金属類の抽出を行なうものである。
【0013】
ここで、焼却灰に含まれる抽出すべき重金属類は、鉛(Pb)、亜鉛(Zn)、クロム(Cr)、マンガン(Mn)、カドミウム(Cd)等である。
【0014】
上記本発明の方法において、水の使用量は、重金属類含有灰100重量部に対して300〜700重量部、好ましくは400〜600重量部である。
【0015】
また、本発明の方法において使用する塩酸または硝酸は、3〜6Nの濃度を有するものである。塩酸または硝酸の使用量は、使用する塩酸または硝酸が5Nの濃度を有するものである場合には、重金属類含有灰100重量部に対して、150〜250重量部であり、重金属類含有灰に対する塩酸または硝酸の滴下は、例えば重金属類含有灰、水および塩酸または硝酸の混合物のpHが1以下になるまで、滴下を行なうようにするのが、好ましい。
【0016】
そして、上記のように、重金属類含有灰、水、および塩酸または硝酸の混合物を、ボールミル等粉砕機により機械的に粉砕を行なうが、この時、焼却灰混合物の粉砕は、粒度1μm以下の粉末が50%以上となるまで行なうものである。
【0017】
ここで、焼却灰混合物の粉砕が、粒度1μm以下の粉末が50%未満の状態では、重金属類の抽出を充分に行なうことができない。また、粉砕時の温度は、室温程度で充分であるが、場合によって、粉砕・抽出時の温度が低すぎると、重金属類の抽出が少なく、逆に高過ぎると、水分の蒸発が激しくなり、作業性が悪いうえに、エネルギーコストが高くつくので、好ましくない。
【0018】
得られた抽出液は、つぎに濾過を行ない、重金属類含有抽出液と、残渣とに分離する。これにより、焼却灰等の重金属類含有灰中の90%以上の重金属類を抽出除去することができ、除去された抽出液中の重金属類は、回収して再利用化することができるとともに、残渣は有害物質である重金属類を含まないために、そのまま廃棄可能である。
【0019】
つぎに、図2のフローシートは、本発明の請求項2および請求項4記載による重金属類含有灰の処理方法を示すもので、同図のフローシートの回収方法−1を参照すると、本発明の請求項4記載による重金属類含有灰の処理方法は、上記図1のフローシートの請求項1記載による重金属類含有灰の処理方法によって生じた重金属類含有抽出液を濾過した後、濾液に硫酸を滴下し、生じた重金属類含有固形物を回収するものである。たゞし、この場合の焼却灰等に含まれる重金属類は、鉛(Pb)および第1クロム:Cr(II)等である。
【0020】
焼却灰等に含まれる鉛(Pb)、亜鉛(Zn)、クロム(Cr)、マンガン(Mn)、カドミウム(Cd)等の重金属類のうち、鉛(Pb)は、上記のように、硫酸鉛(PbSO)の白色固形物として沈殿する。また第1クロム:Cr(II)も、硫酸第1クロム:CrSOの白色固形物として沈殿するが、第2クロム:Cr(III)の硫酸塩、並びにその他亜鉛(Zn)、マンガン(Mn)、およびカドミウム(Cd)の硫酸塩は、水に可溶であるため、沈殿しない。
【0021】
そこで、図2のフローシートの回収方法−2では、本発明の請求項2記載による重金属類含有灰の処理方法を示すもので、上記図1のフローシートの請求項1記載による重金属類含有灰の処理方法によって生じた重金属類含有抽出液を濾過した後、濾液をイオン交換樹脂またはキレート樹脂に接触させることにより、重金属類を回収するものである。この請求項2記載による重金属類含有灰の処理方法によれば、鉛(Pb)、亜鉛(Zn)、マンガン(Mn)、カドミウム(Cd)、クロム(Cr)等のすべての重金属類を回収することができる。
【0022】
【実施例】
つぎに、本発明の実施例を説明するが、本発明は、これらの実施例に限定されるものではない。
【0023】
実施例1
本発明の第1実施例を、図1に示すフローシートを参照して行なった。
【0024】
まず、重金属として鉛(Pb)を灰1kgあたり10g含む焼却飛灰を用いた。そして、直径10mmのアルミナボールを収めたポリ瓶に、上記鉛含有灰30g、水100cc、および5Nの塩酸60ccを入れ、室温で4時間、ボールミルにより機械的にかつ粒度1μm以下の粉末が50%となるように粉砕を行ないながら、抽出を行なった。ついで、抽出液を濾過し、得られた濾液の鉛(Pb)濃度を原子吸光分析法によりJIS K 0121に準拠して測定した。鉛(Pb)の抽出率は、99%であった。得られた結果を表1に示した。
【0025】
実施例2
本発明の上記第1実施例の場合と、同様に実施するが、粉砕性能の優れたアトライタ型ボールミル(三井三池化工株式会社製)を用いて、室温で2時間、機械的にかつ粒度1μm以下の粉末が60%となるように粉砕を行ないながら、抽出を行なった。ついで、抽出液を濾過し、得られた濾液の鉛(Pb)濃度を、原子吸光分析法により同様に測定した。鉛(Pb)の抽出率は、99%であった。得られた結果を表1にあわせて示した。
【0026】
実施例3
本発明の上記第1実施例の場合と同様に実施するが、鉛含有灰30g、および水100cc、並びに塩酸に代えて、5Nの硝酸60ccをポリ瓶に入れ、室温で4時間、ボールミルにより機械的にかつ粒度1μm以下の粉末が50%となるように粉砕を行ないながら、抽出を行なった。ついで、抽出液を濾過し、得られた濾液の鉛(Pb)濃度を、原子吸光分析法により同様に測定した。鉛(Pb)の抽出率は、99%であった。得られた結果を表1にあわせて示した。
【0027】
比較例1
比較として、上記実施例1の場合と同様に、重金属として鉛(Pb)を灰1kgあたり10g含む焼却飛灰を用いた。そして、容器に、鉛含有灰30g、水100cc、および5Nの塩酸60ccを入れ、全く粉砕を行なわずに、室温で4時間抽出を行なった。抽出処理後、焼却飛灰中の粒度1μm以下の粉末は20%であった。ついで、抽出液を濾過し、得られた濾液の鉛(Pb)濃度を、原子吸光分析法により同様に測定した。鉛(Pb)の抽出率は、5%であった。
【0028】
比較例2
比較として、上記実施例1の場合と同様に実施するが、ボールミルによる機械的粉砕、および抽出を室温で1時間だけ行なったところ、粒度1μm以下の粉末は35%であった。ついで、抽出液を濾過し、得られた濾液の鉛(Pb)濃度を原子吸光分析法により同様に測定した。鉛(Pb)の抽出率は、20%であった。
【0029】
比較例3
比較として、上記実施例1の場合と同様に実施するが、ボールミルによる粉砕の代わりに、従来技術であるマグネティックスターラーを用いた攪拌による粉砕・抽出を、室温で5時間行なったところ、粒度1μm以下の粉末は30%であった。ついで、抽出液を濾過し、得られた濾液の鉛(Pb)濃度を原子吸光分析法により同様に測定した。鉛(Pb)の抽出率は、18%であった。
【0030】
【表1】

Figure 0003981758
【0031】
表1の結果から明らかなように、重金属類含有焼却灰の機械的な粉砕と重金属類の抽出とが同時に起こるプロセスを用いた本発明の実施例1〜3の重金属類含有灰の処理方法によれば、鉛(Pb)の抽出率が非常に大きくなることが分かった。またこの場合、1μm以下の粒度が50%以上であれば、抽出率が大きくなることも分かった。
【0032】
なお、上記鉛含有焼却飛灰を、予め粉砕することにより作製した試料粉末を用いて、従来法により鉛(Pb)を抽出する作業を行なっても、鉛(Pb)の高い抽出率を得ることができなかった。従って、本発明の請求項1記載による重金属類含有灰の処理方法によれば、単一の工程で、鉛等重金属類含有焼却飛灰の粉砕と重金属類の抽出とを行なうことができるため、重金属類含有灰の処理工程を単純化することができる。

【0034】
実施例5
本発明の上記第3実施例の場合と同様に実施し、鉛含有灰30g、および水100cc、並びに5Nの硝酸60ccをポリ瓶に入れ、室温で4時間、ボールミルにより機械的にかつ粒度1μm以下の粉末が50%となるように粉砕を行ないながら、抽出を行なった。ついで、抽出液を濾過し、得られた濾液に、5Nの硫酸を滴下したところ、白色の固形物が沈殿した(回収法−1)。白色固形物を粉末X線回析により分析したところ、白色固形物は硫酸鉛(PbSO)であることが確認できた。一方、固形物の分離後の液中には、分析の結果、鉛(Pb)は存在していなかった。

【0036】
ついで、樹脂を洗浄して、洗浄液を分析したところ、アルミニウム(Al)やカルシウム(Ca)等は検出されず、鉛(Pb)、亜鉛(Zn)およびクロム(Cr)等の重金属類のみが検出された。これらの重金属類の回収率は99%であった。

[0013]
Here, the heavy metals to be extracted contained in the incinerated ash are lead (Pb), zinc (Zn), chromium (Cr), manganese (Mn), cadmium (Cd) and the like.
[0014]
In the method of the present invention, the amount of water is 300 to 700 parts by weight with respect to heavy metals-containing ash 100 parts by weight, preferably 400 to 600 parts by weight.
[0015]
The hydrochloric acid or nitric acid used in the method of the present invention has a concentration of 3 to 6N. The amount of hydrochloric acid or nitric acid, if hydrochloric acid or nitric acid used is one having a concentration of 5 N, to the heavy metals-containing ash 100 parts by weight, 1 50 to 250 parts by weight, heavy metals content The dropping of hydrochloric acid or nitric acid to the ash is preferably carried out until the pH of the mixture of heavy metal-containing ash, water and hydrochloric acid or nitric acid becomes 1 or less.
[0016]
As described above, a mixture of heavy metal-containing ash, water, and hydrochloric acid or nitric acid is mechanically pulverized by a pulverizer such as a ball mill. At this time, the incineration ash mixture is pulverized to a powder having a particle size of 1 μm or less. Is carried out until 50% or more.
