Abstract
To enhance the utilization of solid waste in cement kiln co-processing, this study analyzed the multifaceted synergy of pyrolysis and mineralization processes of iron-rich sludge (SS) and waste incineration fly ash (FA) at optimal blending ratios. Based on the physicochemical properties of SS and co-pyrolysis experiments, it was found that Fe acted as a positive catalyst in pyrolysis between 700 and 1000 °C, while the endogenous polymerization effect of Fe(III) mineral groups dominated above 800 °C. Additionally, the study investigated the solidification and migration of heavy metals and the transformation of harmful elements (S, Cl, and P). Results indicated that the best mixture ratios for SS and FA were 6:4 and 9:1, respectively, and synergistic pyrolysis and mineral co-curing effects were observed in the pyrolysis temperature range of 50-1000 °C. The synergy between SS and FA allowed for the decomposition and solidification of harmful organic components and heavy metals, reducing environmental risks. Furthermore, in actual production, by mixing 100 tons of SS and FA with Portland cement with a daily output of 2500 tons, the compressive strength during early hydration stages can reach 34.52 MPa on the third day, exceeding the highest performance of Portland cement (62.5R) strength index specified in the standard.
