Asbestos (asbestos) has been widely used in buildings and the like since it has good properties such as fire resistance and heat insulation.

In recent years, however, asbestos has been found to be a cause of health problems due to suction of dust, and asbestos is removed and disposed of on a large scale (see Patent Document 1, for example). .

And as for the place where the removal of asbestos material is difficult, it seals with a chemical | medical agent, and prevents asbestos scattering.

As for removal, the asbestos material is constructed by spraying or the like, and the asbestos material is removed by peeling from a building or the like.

The removed asbestos is packed and disposed of at an industrial waste disposal site. Asbestos is disposed of at a specially managed industrial waste disposal site, not at a general industrial waste disposal site, due to concerns about its harmfulness.

As a method of treating the asbestos material, in addition to landfill disposal, there are melt disposal and cement solidification disposal, but these are rarely used due to problems such as cost.

About sealing asbestos, it sprays with a predetermined chemical | medical agent, and solidifies and seals the surface of asbestos, or it penetrates and seals a chemical | medical agent inside, and prevents scattering.

Japanese Patent Application Publication No. Hei 8-28026

Here, as alkali metal, 1, 2 or more are preferable in K, Na, and Li.

Moreover, as for the compounding quantity of the alkali metal silicate in an asbestos material processing agent, 5-45 mass% is preferable with respect to the whole processing agent.

If the blending amount is less than 5% by mass, the effect of harming the asbestos material is insufficient, and if it exceeds 45% by mass, the proportion of other components is lowered, and the effect by the components is reduced. While maintaining the effect, it is possible to sufficiently exhibit the effect of the other components.

The quaternary ammonium silicate used in the treatment agent of the present invention is preferably represented by (R 3 N) 2 O.nSiO 2 (R is an alkyl group having 1 or more carbon atoms and n is an integer of 1 or more).

As for the compounding quantity of (b) quaternary ammonium silicate in a processing agent, 3-25 mass% is preferable with respect to the whole processing agent.

When the blending amount is less than 3% by mass, the effect of promoting penetration of the alkali metal silicate is lowered, and when the amount exceeds 25% by mass, the proportion of other components is lowered to reduce the effect of other components. The metal silicate can be sufficiently penetrated into the asbestos material to promote the detoxification, and to fully exhibit the effect of other components.

(c) Water functions as a solvent of (a) alkali metal silicate and (b) quaternary ammonium silicate, and infiltrates them to the deep part of asbestos material.

(D) Surfactant can also be added to a processing agent.

As surfactant, nonionic, anionic, cationic, silicone type, etc. can be used. The surfactant has a function of increasing the dispersibility of the alkali metal silicate and the quaternary ammonium silicate and increasing the penetration of the treatment agent into the asbestos material.

0.1-1 mass% is preferable with respect to the whole processing agent, and, as for the compounding quantity of surfactant, it can make it spread uniformly over the wide range of asbestos material by setting it as this range.

Specific examples of preferred formulations include (a) 5 to 45 mass% of alkali metal silicate, (b) 3 to 25 mass% of quaternary ammonium silicate, and (d) 0.1 to 1 mass% of surfactant. (C) there is a formulation in which water is present.

EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION Hereinafter, one Embodiment of the processing method of the asbestos material of this invention is described.

1 is a diagram showing the procedure of this processing method.

(1) preliminary work

In the present invention, the asbestos construction object is, for example, a building such as a concrete building, a wooden building, or the like. Specifically, for example, a skeleton in a boiler room, a machine room, an air conditioning machine room, a parking lot, or the like ( Steel frame, etc.), ceiling and wall materials.

Asbestos material is formed on the surface of the building material (steel frame etc.) of a building as a coating layer by spraying etc., for example. In addition, building materials containing asbestos materials (such as slate plates) may be used in buildings.

Asbestos materials are often used together with cement materials such as concrete and mortar. Cement-based materials usually include calcium oxide (CaO) and silicon dioxide (SiO 2 ). A part of CaO becomes Ca (OH) 2 by reaction with water. In addition to these, the cement material often contains aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3 ) and ferric oxide (Fe 2 O 3 ).

As shown in Fig. 1, prior to removal of asbestos, it is preferable to take measures to prevent external leakage of asbestos as follows.

After the removal work site is cleaned, in order to prevent adhesion of asbestos material, curing is performed by covering the bottom surface, wall surface, and the like of the portion where asbestos material is not constructed with a sheet or the like.

A security area having the removal work site as an enclosed space is provided, and a negative pressure vibration suppressor for negative pressure of the security area is provided.

(2) asbestos removal work

Asbestos material installed on the construction object is scraped off or removed by a suitable tool. Hereinafter, the removed asbestos material may be referred to as waste asbestos material.

At this time, scattering of an asbestos material can be suppressed by spreading the scattering inhibitor which consists of metal silicates etc. to an asbestos material. In addition, the dust of asbestos scattered in the air is cleaned by the negative pressure dust collector and disposed of to the outside.

It is desirable for workers to wear protective clothing to prevent exposure to asbestos.

(3) Dispersant spreading work

The above-mentioned treatment agent is dispersed in the asbestos material. As a dispersion method, you may employ | adopt spraying and you may employ | adopt the method of apply | coating using an application | coating tool, such as a brush. As for the dispersion amount of a processing agent, 30-70 mass parts is preferable with respect to 100 mass parts of asbestos materials. By setting the amount of dispersion in this range, a high detoxification effect is obtained. In addition, the amount of dispersion of the treatment agent may be set out of the above-described range according to the kind, components, and the like of the asbestos material.

(A) Alkali metal silicate contained in a processing agent reacts with an asbestos material, and makes it harmless.

(a) Although the reaction of an alkali metal silicate and an asbestos material is not clear in detail, it can be estimated as follows.

For example, the asbestos material having the structure shown in formula (1) is reacted with (a) alkali metal silicate (potassium silicate: K 2 SiO 3 ) under strong base conditions (for example, pH 10 or more), whereby The reaction which becomes the structure shown by (2) and which the decomposition product shown by Formula (3)-(5) arises can be considered.

In order to make it a strong base condition, you may react in presence of a strong base compound, for example, KOH, Ca (OH) 2 , NaOH. In this example, KOH is used.

[Formula 1]

Figure pct00001

[Formula 2]

Figure pct00002

(3)

Figure pct00003

In the above-mentioned reaction, some magnesium is leaving as a product shown by Formula (3)-(5) by reaction with KOH.

In addition, as shown in formula (6), the magnesium chelate-bonded with a pair of silanol groups (Si-OH) in asbestos material is bonded to potassium silicate spaced apart from one silanol group, and the silanol group in which magnesium is spaced apart Potassium is ionically bound.

The structure in which potassium silicate is bonded to the silanol group is considered to be chemically stable, and even if pH is lowered, the reverse reaction of formula (6) is unlikely to occur.

[Formula 4]

Figure pct00004

In this way, the asbestos material is made harmless by the desorption reaction of magnesium and the bonding reaction with potassium silicate.

As mentioned above, asbestos is unlikely to be harmful again because it is believed that the reaction of Formula (6) is unlikely to occur in reverse reaction.

The use of the treatment agent of the present invention makes it possible for the asbestos material to be in a form in which harmfulness is unlikely to occur again due to pH change, which is the first finding by the inventors of the present invention, and its technical significance is very high.

In contrast, (a) without using an alkali metal silicate and simply placing the asbestos material represented by formula (1) under strong base conditions (for example, adding KOH), Similarly, the structural change occurs, but the pH is low and the reverse reaction occurs easily, and the hydrolysis is returned to the structure shown in the formula (1).

[Chemical Formula 5]

Figure pct00005

(b) The quaternary ammonium silicate has the effect of increasing the permeability (wetting) to the asbestos material. Therefore, the other components in the treatment agent can be deeply penetrated into the asbestos material and spread uniformly throughout. Therefore, (a) alkali metal silicate can be made to act on the whole asbestos material, and the said detoxification reaction can be promoted.

The quaternary ammonium silicate reacts with calcium hydroxide [(Ca (OH) 2 ], if present, to produce calcium silicate, which is a glassy substance.

When an asbestos material is used together with a cement material (concrete, mortar, etc.), the asbestos material reacts with calcium hydroxide contained in the cement material to generate calcium silicate, which is a glassy material, and thus can fix the asbestos material.

Formula (8) is an example of the formation reaction of calcium silicate.

[Formula 6]

Figure pct00006

In order to produce calcium silicate, which is a quaternary ammonium silicate and fix the asbestos material, even if the detoxification reaction by alkali metal silicate is insufficient, it is possible to prevent harmful asbestos material from being released by scattering or the like. have.

Table 1 is an experimental result which shows the solidification effect | action by quaternary ammonium silicate.

In Example 1, 17.4 mass% aqueous solution of quaternary ammonium silicate was apply | coated to the test body which consists of concrete using a brush [average arrival amount 0.14 g / cm <2> ], and the strength and hardness are measured It was. In order to compare, the result of Example 2 which did not apply the quaternary ammonium silicate aqueous solution is shown in parallel.

Compressive strength was measured according to JIS A1108. Schmidt Hammer strength was measured according to JSCE-G504.

Micro Vickers Hardness was measured using a Micro Vickers hardness tester (scratch tester).

TABLE 1

Figure pct00007

As shown in Table 1, in Example 1, since the mechanical strength is higher than that in Example 2, the solidification action by the quaternary ammonium silicate was confirmed.

(4) Asbestos material recovery and compression work

The asbestos material which spread | dispersed the processing agent can be put into the discarding bag and can be compressed using a compression apparatus.

2 shows an example of a compression device. In order to compress the asbestos material 1 using this apparatus, the asbestos material 1 put in the waste bag 2 is compressed by the press body 4 in the compression container 3.

Thereby, the volume reduction of the asbestos material 1 can be aimed at. The volume of the asbestos material 1 can be reduced to about 1/3 to 1/4, for example, before compression.

Therefore, the transportation and disposal costs can be greatly reduced. Furthermore, the usage-amount of a processing agent can be suppressed and it becomes more advantageous in terms of cost.

In particular, in a specially managed industrial waste disposal site which requires strict leakage prevention management, the lack of disposal space becomes a problem, so the technical significance of the method which can reduce the volume is large.

Since the volume is reduced, the effect of spreading the treatment agent uniformly throughout the asbestos material 1 and reliably progressing the detoxification reaction by the alkali metal silicate can also be obtained. Moreover, immobilization by calcium silicate production can also be promoted. The compression treatment also has the same effect as preventing asbestos from scattering.

In addition, since the capacity of the asbestos material 1 becomes small, the asbestos material 1 can be further added into the waste bag 2 and can be recompressed. As a result, many asbestos materials 1 can be filled in one waste bag 2, thereby reducing the number of asbestos materials (packaged asbestos materials) filled in the bags requiring disposal, further reducing transportation and disposal costs. can do.

Protective clothing and a curing sheet used in the asbestos removal work can be put in a waste bag 2 for compression treatment.

In order to reliably prevent the external leakage of the asbestos material 1, a plurality of waste bags 2 are used. Specifically, it is packed in a double bag. By using the waste bag 2, asbestos can be prevented from scattering. In addition, the waste bag 2 can also be used 3 or more sheets.

(5) Take it out to the disposal ground

After the opening of the waste bag 2 is sealed, asbestos (packed asbestos) filled in the bag is taken out from the work site and transported to a specially managed industrial waste disposal site. Asbestos filled in the bag is disposed of at landfill or the like at the industrial waste disposal site.

Since the processing agent of this invention contains (a) alkali metal silicate and (b) quaternary ammonium silicate, asbestos material can be made harmless by (a) alkali metal silicate.

Asbestos is considered to be harmless due to the reaction with alkali metal silicate and change into a stable chemical structure, and this compound is unlikely to be harmful again due to environmental changes such as pH. Even if is leaked, safety can be secured.

In addition, since the (b) quaternary ammonium silicate has the effect of enhancing the permeability, the treatment agent can be penetrated deeply into the asbestos material, and the alkali metal silicate can be applied to the entire asbestos material to promote the detoxification reaction.

In addition, (b) the quaternary ammonium silicate generates calcium silicate, which is a glassy substance, by reaction with calcium hydroxide contained in a building material in which asbestos is constructed. Asbestos material is immobilized by solidification between cement particles, thereby asbestos. The ash can be reliably prevented from being released to the outside.

Moreover, since (c) water is used as a solvent, it is excellent also in the safety of the solvent itself compared with the organic solvent. In addition, (a) alkali metal silicate and (b) quaternary ammonium silicate also have low hazards, so there is no problem in terms of safety.

Therefore, when transporting to the disposal site as well as to the disposal site and handling at the disposal site, external leakage of harmful asbestos can be prevented in advance even after disposal of landfill, and safety can be improved.

According to the method for treating asbestos material of the present invention, since the treatment agent is used, the asbestos material can be reliably harmless and safety can be ensured.

In addition, by compressing the asbestos material, the volume of the asbestos material can be reduced, so that the transportation and disposal costs can be greatly reduced. Furthermore, the usage-amount of a processing agent can be suppressed and it becomes more advantageous in terms of cost.

In particular, in a specially managed industrial waste disposal site which requires strict leakage prevention management, the lack of disposal space becomes a problem, so the technical significance of the method which can reduce the volume is large.

9.Og of 20 mass% calcium hydroxide [Ca (OH) 2 ] aqueous solution was added to 0.6 g of asbestos material (standard sample) and mixed.

After drying for one week at 40 ° C, the asbestos was separated by X-ray diffraction to determine the asbestos content.

Asbestos content rate is the ratio (mass%) of the asbestos amount obtained by this test example with respect to the asbestos amount in test example 1 (blank test).

In order to compare, the same test was done to the already asbestos material which was dried except having performed a formic acid treatment prior to component analysis. The results are shown in Table 2.

4A is a graph showing the result of X-ray diffraction when no formic acid treatment is performed, and FIG. 4B is a graph showing the result of X-ray diffraction when formic acid treatment is performed.

Test Example 3 (Treatment with Cement Water Only)

To 0.6 g of asbestos material (standard sample), 7.5 g of cement water was added and mixed. Cement water is a suspension of portland cement in water (cement: water = 1: 3) (mass basis).

After drying for 1 week at 40 ° C, the asbestos material was analyzed by X-ray diffraction to evaluate the asbestos content.

In order to compare, the same test was done to the already asbestos material which was dried except having performed a formic acid treatment prior to component analysis. The results are shown in Table 2.

FIG. 5A is a graph showing the result of X-ray diffraction when no formic acid treatment is performed, and FIG. 5B is a graph showing the result of X-ray diffraction when the formic acid treatment is performed.

Test Example 4 (Treatment Only With Treatment Agent)

To 0.6 g of asbestos material (standard sample), 3 ml of the treatment agent was added and mixed, and dried at 40 ° C for 24 hours.

The formulation of the treatment agent is, (a) an alkali metal silicate (potassium: K 2 SiO 3) 9.3% by weight, (b) a quaternary ammonium silicate (dimethyl ethanol ammonium silicate) 10.6% by weight, (d) 0.5% by weight surfactant And (c) 79.6 mass% of water.

As the surfactant, a nonionic surfactant was used.

To this asbestos material, 3 ml of the treating agent was added and mixed again, dried at 40 ° C. for 24 hours, and then 3 ml of the treating agent was added and mixed again, and dried at 40 ° C. for 24 hours.

TABLE 2

Figure pct00008

As shown in Table 2, from Test Examples 2 and 3, when the asbestos material was treated with calcium hydroxide or cement water, the asbestos content was decreased, but when the pH was lowered by formic acid treatment, the asbestos content was 100% or excitation. You can see that it returns to the value close to.

In contrast, as shown in Test Examples 4 to 6, when the treatment agent was used, the asbestos content was low, and this content rate did not increase greatly by formic acid treatment.

From this fact, it can be seen that by using the treatment agent of the present invention, part of the asbestos is made innocuous and harmfulness hardly occurs again due to the change of the pH environment.

This can be considered to be due to the irreversible change of the asbestos chemical structure into a harmless structure by reaction with the treatment agent of the present invention.

In addition, in the presence of calcium hydroxide or cement water, the asbestos content was further lowered.

9A and 9B are graphs showing the results of component analysis of the surface of the asbestos material (standard sample) used in Test Example 1 using a scanning electron microscope-energy dispersive X-ray analysis method (SEM-EDX method). The vertical axis represents the content rate (mass%).

FIG. 9A is a result when the formic acid treatment is not performed, and FIG. 9B is a result when the formic acid treatment is performed.

From these results, it turns out that the change of the component of asbestos material by a formic acid process hardly occurs.

10A and 10B are the results of component analysis according to the SEM-EDX method of asbestos material treated in Test Example 2. FIG. FIG. 10A is a result when the formic acid treatment is not performed, and FIG. 10B is a result when the formic acid treatment is performed.

11A and 11B are the results of component analysis according to the SEM-EDX method of asbestos material treated in Test Example 3. FIG. FIG. 11A is a result when the formic acid treatment is not performed, and FIG. 11B is a result when the formic acid treatment is performed.

These results show that when the asbestos material is treated with calcium hydroxide or cement water, the magnesium content decreases but returns to 100% or a value close to this by formic acid treatment (pH decrease).

12 is a component analysis result according to the SEM-EDX method of the asbestos material treated in Test Example 5 (formic acid treatment), and FIG. 13 is a result of component analysis of asbestos material treated in Test Example 6 (formic acid treatment).

From these results, it was confirmed that magnesium content does not increase even if formic acid treatment (pH lowering) is performed by the use of the treatment agent, and recombination of the separated magnesium hardly occurs.

(Test Examples 7-12)

The aqueous solution of quaternary ammonium silicate (2.5 mass% in solid content conversion) was apply | coated to the test body surface which consists of materials shown in Table 3, and it dried. The contact angle of water on this surface was measured.

[Table 3]

Figure pct00009

As shown in Table 3, the contact angle was greatly reduced by the quaternary ammonium silicate.

From this fact, it turns out that quaternary ammonium silicate has an effect which raises permeability (wetting property).

(Test Examples 13-15)

About 300 g of asbestos material (volume specific gravity: about 0.1 to 0.2 g / cm 3 ), the same treatment agent as used in Test Example 4 was dispersed. The amount of the treatment agent was 10 g (Test Example 13), 150 g (Test Example 14), or 200 g (Test Example 15). Asbestos material was compressed by using the compression apparatus shown in FIG. 2. The compression ratio was about 70 to 80%.

In all of Test Examples 13-15, the asbestos material solidified by the compression process was obtained.

Particularly, in Test Example 14, the shape of the asbestos solidified is hardly deformed even if a strong pressure is applied from the outside, and in Test Example 15, the shape of the asbestos solidified is almost the same even if a strong pressure is applied from the outside. It was not deformed and became a form which was easy to handle at the time of conveyance.

(Test Example 16)

The asbestos treated in the same manner as in Test Example 6 was immersed in water having a pH of 7.8 to 8.3, and the amount of elution of heavy metals and the like was measured. The measuring method was based on "the Holy Spirit (Japanese General Ministry No. 5) which sets the judgment standard regarding industrial waste containing metals etc .." The results are shown in Table 4.

[Table 4]

Figure pct00010

From Table 4, it can be seen that in the asbestos material treated by the present invention, elution of heavy metals or the like hardly occurs in all of the detection items, thereby satisfying the regulation value.

[Industry availability]

According to the present invention, the asbestos material can be harmless in a form that is unlikely to cause re-harm due to environmental changes. Leakage can be prevented in advance, increasing safety.
