초록
본 연구에서는 비가열 제조법에 의한 BP슬러지의 반건조 제조공정 개발에 관한 연구로 고함수율(50% 이상)의 BP부산물을 건설 재료로의 대량 활용하기 위하여 산업부산물과 혼합에 따른 함수율 저감에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. BP부산물에 함수저감재(1:0.5)의 투입비율에서 함수저감율을 측정결과 PA+CFA(1:0.5) 배합에서 함수율이 18.5%로 가장 낮게 나타났다. 또한, 에이징 온도조건 $20{\sim}30^{\circ}C$일 경우 에이징 기간 1~2일 사이에 약 9.2~11.4%의 함수율을 나타내 본 연구에서 건설재료로 활용하기 위한 10% 이내의 함수율 저감에 근접하였다. 에이징 공정 이후 분쇄방법에 따른 비가열 BP부산물의 물성을 비교 평가한 결과, 분쇄방식에 따라서 차이는 많이 발생하지 않았으며, 생산효율 및 경제성을 고려할 경우 연속생산이 가능한 미립자분쇄기 또는 핀밀을 사용하는 것이 적합할 것으로 나타났다.
This study relates to an investigation into semi-dry manufacturing process of BP sludge based on non-heating production method. In this study, we conducted a research into reduction of water content ratio which arose from mixture of BP by-products of high water content ratio(50% or higher) with industrial by-products to use such BP by-products as construction materials in large quantity. We measured the reduction rate of water content ratio at the feeding ratio of water content reduction agent(1:0.5) in BP by-products. The results showed that water content ratio was the lowest with 18.5% in the mixture of PA+CFA(1:0.5). Moreover, water content ratio ranged between approximately 9.2% and 11.4% at the age of 1 day to 2 days at the aging temperature of $20-30^{\circ}C$, suggesting that the water content ratio was in the range within 10% which was a level suitable for use as construction material in this study. Meanwhile, we compared and evaluated the physical properties of non-heated BP by-products based on post-aging pulverization method. The results showed that there was no significant difference, depending on pulverization method. When production efficiency and economic feasibility were taken into consideration, it was found desirable to use fine particle pulverizer or pin mill enabling continuous production.
