This paper is a case study of complete substitution of sodium-metasilicate in zeolite Na-A synthesis by an electrostatic filterash (FA) arising in high amounts during silane waste incineration process.The silicate abundant FA is a suitable material for reinsertion in zeolite chemistry. This is shown in the presented investigation by the development of a model reaction process at low temperatures (50–60 °C) and short times (1.5–4 h). The experiments were performed under addition of NaAlO2 and variation of the alkalinity and the reaction period. Characterization and fine tuning of the process was mainly done by studying the kinetics of FA digestion and zeolite crystallization by XRD and chemical analyses (ICP-OES) of solutions and solids. It could be shown that pure FA was mostly dissolved (98%) in 8 m NaOH already after 1 h. Addition of NaAlO2 and crystallization for further 60 min under optimized conditions at 50 °C yielded to a suitable product. It consists of zeolite Na-A (92% by mass) beside some hydrosodalite (8% by mass). According to this low temperature short time process this study is a contribution for the development of energy efficient recycling solutions.
Alkaline reactions of paper sludge combustion ash at low temperature (60 °C) were performed using a calcite-rich paper ash (PA 1) and a gehlenite-rich ash (PA 2). Strong alkaline conditions (8, 12, 16 M NaOH) were revealed at reaction times of 1–4 h and 12–24 h. Reactions were performed with pure ashes and in the presence of NaAlO2. The products were characterized by XRD, FTIR, SEM/EDX, gravimetry and chemical analysis. The conversion was found to proceed mainly in the period between 1 and 4 h. Portlandite and hydrogarnet were observed from PA 1 in 8 M NaOH. Onset of formation of Ca4Al2O6CO·311H2O beside Ca(OH)2 could be analyzed after reaction of PA 1 in 12 M and 16 M NaOH. Addition of NaAlO2 favored crystallization of hydrogarnet and Ca4-Al2O6CO·311H2O. For PA 2 gehlenite remained stable, but a high portlandite fraction was observed. Addition of NaAlO2 yielded hydrogarnet beside gehlenite in 8 M NaOH. Higher alkalinities favored crystallization of Ca4Al2O6-CO·311H2O and onset of dissolution of gehlenite. Finally transformation of Ca4Al2O6CO·311H2O into sodium aluminum silicate hydrate was observed. All results were discussed with regard to heavy metal distribution of the initial PA between the alkaline digestion solution and the products. In conclusion suitable applications of the products were proposed.
