T1 - Novel lightweight aggregates from masonry rubble N2 - Most lightweight aggregates (LWA) are produced by thermal Treatment of natural raw materials such as clay and shale. In addition to the high energy costs thereby incurred, the availability of suitable raw materials is limited. Other LWA manufactured from industrial by-products and wastes do not always meet the quality criteria for use in high-Quality lightweight concrete. A real alternative is the use of novel lightweight aggregates (referred to as LWA, aggregates and granules) made from mineral construction and demolition waste. An appropriate manufacturing technology has recently been developed in the framework of a German research project /1, 2/. Masonry rubble of variable grain size containing different amounts of brick material (25 to 70 %) serves as raw material. The LWA are obtained in a multistage manufacturing process by a thermal or hydrothermal treatment, which causes the expansion and the hardening of the material. The novel LWA meet the acceptance criteria for conventional lightweight aggregates. They are suitable for the production of lightweight concrete /2-6/. However to create tailor-made LWA from masonry rubble, the novel expanded materials and the influence of manufacturing conditions have to be understood in more detail. This paper reports on ongoing investigations of the chemico-mineralogical composition and microstructure of the novel LWA and focuses on the results of Chemical analyses, XRD, ESEM, TG/DTA and fusibility tests.

T1 - Synthese hydraulischer Phasen in Papierasche und Braunkohlenflugasche durch hydrothermale Behandlung N2 - Reststoffe aus industriellen Filter- und Verbrennungsprozessen, die in ihren Hauptbestandteilen aus Si02- und CaO-reichen Mineralphasen bestehen, besitzen das Potential hydraulische Eigenschaften auszubilden. Das bedeutet, dass sie in Anwesenheit von Wasser oder alkalischen Lösungen festigkeitsbildende Phasen entwickeln. Oft bedarf es zunächst einer Aufbereitung um die hydraulischen Mineralphasen zu aktivieren. Hydraulische Phasen sind z.B. die Calciumsilikate Alit (C3S) und Belit (C2S). Sie unterscheiden sich vorrangig durch ihr Ca/Si-Verhältnis. Im Allgemeinen hydratisiert Belit langsamer als Alit und das Hydratationsprodukt weist nach 28 Tagen eine geringere Festigkeit auf. Zur Herstellung von Belit wird weniger Calciumoxid benötigt als zur Herstellung von Alit. Daher muss weniger CaC03 kalziniert werden und der C02-Ausstoß bei der Produktion verringert sich. Zur Synthese von hydraulisch aktivem Belit kann eine hydrothermale Aufbereitung dienen. Verschiedene Autoren nutzten diese Behandlung zur Aktivierung verschiedener Reststoffe, wobei sich CaO-reiche Asche aus der Energieerzeugung (z.B. Braunkohlenflugasche) als sehr geeignet erwies, Papierasche (PA) aus dem Papierrecyling besitzt ebenfalls einen hohen CaO-Gehalt und ist Bestandteil der aktuellen Bindemittelforschung auf Reststoffbasis. Die Untersuchung einer hydrothermalen Aktivierung fehlt bisher. Dieser Artikel soll einen Beitrag zur Klärung der folgenden Fragen leisten: Eignet sich Papierasche zur Belitsynthese durch hydrothermale Behandlung?

Sewage sludge ash is a promising secondary phosphorus source. However, to remove heavy metals and convert the phosphorus contained in sewage sludge ash into mineral phases available to plants, an after-treatment is required. Laboratory-scale calcination experiments of sewage sludge ash blended with sodium salts using dried sewage sludge as a reducing agent were carried out at 1000 °C. Thus, the Ca3(PO4)2 or whitlockite component of raw sewage sludge ash, which is not readily plant available, was converted to CaNaPO4 (buchwaldite). Consequently, nearly complete phosphorus solubility in ammonium citrate (a well-established indicator for plant availability) was achieved. Moreover, it was shown that Na2CO3 may be replaced by moderately priced Na2SO4. However, molar ratios of Na/P > 2 were required to achieve >80% phosphorus solubility. Such over-stoichiometric Na consumption is largely caused by side reactions with the SiO2 component of the sewage sludge ash – an explanation for which clear evidence is provided for the first time.

The nature of this disorder and of the phase transition between the α- and β-form has been the subject of intensive research during the last four decades [1]. By 1989 it became possible to stabilize the HT-form of cristobalite SiO2 at room temperature in laboratory and engineering ceramic industries by applying solid solution forming techniques [2]. However, for the HT-form of cristobalite AlPO4 nothing similar has been known until 2014 when it was discovered that nanocrystalline and stacking-disordered β-cristobalite AlPO4 is the major component of the fly ash of a large incineration facility operated by the waste water treatment authorities of Frankfurt/M. [3]. Previous comprehensive investigations of this fly ash failed to interpret its complex XRD pattern – presumably mainly due to the lack of a matching experimental digital pattern in the Powder Diffraction Database. The present paper reports on a synthesis route that facilitates the crystallization of nanocrystalline and stacking-disordered β-cristobalite AlPO4 that is free of crystalline impurity phases and long-term stable at ambient. Its room temperature XRD pattern is presented with parameters traced back to certified reference materials. [1] Yuan F. and Huang L., Phys. Rev, B, 2012, 85, 134114.

T1 - Porenstruktur hydrothermal erhärteter Granulate aus Mauerwerkbruch N2 - Die Herstellung hydrothermal erhärteter Granulate ist eine Möglichkeit zur Wiederverwertung von ziegelhaltigem Mauerwerkbruch, der derzeit aufgrund der heterogenen Zusammensetzung und hoher Feinanteile ein besonders hohes Verwertungsdefizit aufweist. Dabei ist die hydrothermale Erhärtung in einem Autoklav bei 200 °C und 1.6 MPa in gesättigter Wasserdampfatmosphäre eine Alternative mit geringerem Energieverbrauch im Vergleich zur thermischen Herstellung von Leichtgranulaten aus mineralischen Abfällen (Blähgranulate) oder Tonen und Schiefer (kommerzieller Blähton bzw. Blähschiefer), die bei Temperaturen von 1200-1300 °C im Drehrohrofen erfolgt. Die Festigkeit der Hydrothermalgranulate entwickelt sich bei diesem Prozess durch die Ausbildung von Calciumsilicathydrat-Phasen (CSH), die durch die Reaktion zwischen Quarzpartikeln und hydratisiertem Kalk entstehen. Die so erzeugten Hydrothermalgranulate haben Rohdichten zwischen 1500 kg/m3 und 2000 kg/m3. Damit und auch durch andere Eigenschaften unterscheiden sie sich von den thermisch erhärteten Blähgranulaten bzw. Blähtonen. Ursache dafür ist letztendlich eine sehr unterschiedliche Gefüge- und Porenstruktur. Im vorliegenden Beitrag wird hauptsächlich über die Ergebnisse der Mikrostrukturuntersuchungen an Hydrothermalgranulaten zusammen mit ihren technologischen Eigenschaften, wie Kornfestigkeit, Rohdichte und Wasseraufnahme, berichtet.

Municipal sewage sludge is a carrier of phosphorus, but also contains organic pollutants and heavy metals. A two-step thermal treatment is suggested, including mono-incineration of sewage sludge and subsequent thermochemical treatment of the ashes. Organic pollutants are completely destroyed by mono-incineration. The resulting sewage sludge ashes contain P, but also heavy metals. P in the ashes exhibits low bioavailability, a disadvantage in farming. Therefore, in a second thermochemical step, P is transferred into mineral phases available for plants, and heavy metals are removed as well. The thermochemical treatment was investigated in a laboratory-scale rotary furnace by treating seven different sewage sludge ashes under systematic variation of operational parameters. Heavy metal removal and the increase of the P-bioavailability were the focus of the investigation. The present experimental study shows that these objectives have been achieved with the proposed process. The P-bioavailability was significantly increased due to the formation of new mineral phases such as chlorapatite, farringtonite and stanfieldite during thermochemical treatment.

T1 - On wet chemical phosphorus recovery from sewage sludge ash by acidic or alkaline leaching and an optimized combination of both N2 - The advantages and drawbacks of existing wet chemical phosphorus (P) recovery technologies, their applicability to different types of sewage sludge ash (SSA) and the role of the decay products of detergent zeolites as a source of reactive Al in SSA are analyzed. Since neither a purely acidic nor a purely alkaline treatment are able to provide satisfactory technical solutions a wet chemical phosphorus (P) recovery process for sewage sludge ashes (SSAs) is investigated in detail that is based on a sequential treatment of SSA with an acid and a base. As a result of an acidic pre-treatment, the P fraction of the raw SSA that was bound as – alkaline-insoluble – calcium phosphate (Ca–P) is converted into aluminum phosphate (Al–P). This newly formed Al–P can be easily dissolved via alkaline treatment and then easily separated from the alkaline leachate via precipitation of Ca–P. The Al-component can be reused as precipitant for P-removal in waste water treatment plants (WWTPs). The investigated process requires fewer chemicals than the direct acidic dissolution of all P-compounds contained in the SSA. This is due to the described rearrangement of the P component from Ca–P to Al–P. That such a rearrangement of P occurs indeed was confirmed through a combination of XRD, ICP and XRF analyses together with mass balance calculations. The present investigation proves that the process works for very different types of SSAs: For Al-rich SSAs that come from WWTPs where Al-salt is used for chemical P-removal the described sequential treatment process works best and yields P-recovery rates as high as 70–77%. But even for SSAs from WWTPs where only iron salt is used for chemical P-removal, a considerable amount of the reactive Al necessary for the described P-rearrangement is supplied by decay products of detergent zeolites, a hidden Al-source present in most SSAs produced in Europe.
