In the production practice of sintered bricks, the drying link is one of the key links to achieve enterprise benefits. Without the yield and quality of dry green bodies, there is no business benefit. The preparation and molding of the mixture at the front end of the drying process and the firing process at the back end of the drying process have a great impact on improving the efficiency of the enterprise, but the drying process has become the most important process at present.
Whether it is a small enterprise fired in a natural drying hoffman kiln, a tunnel kiln production line using secondary firing or a modern large-scale primary firing tunnel kiln production line, the drying process of wet blanks is still the key to restricting the output and quality of sintered bricks Factors play a decisive role in the level of enterprise efficiency. Therefore, the key link of increasing the output of sintered brick enterprises should be implemented in the drying link, not the roasting link.
(1) Source and form of moisture
The process of removing moisture from the green body is called drying.
The water in the green body is mainly composed of three parts, free water, adsorbed water and chemically bound water.
Free water is also called mechanical water or free water: it is distributed between particles and in capillaries, and the binding is relaxed and it is easier to remove. Free water is drained during the drying stage, and the volume shrinks.
Adsorbed water: attached to the surface of the particles, the quantity is related to the ambient temperature and humidity, and has a certain equilibrium relationship, that is, it changes reversibly with the surrounding medium conditions, and the volume remains unchanged.
Chemically bound water: It is contained in the molecular structure of minerals, and the binding is firm, and it requires a large amount of energy to be removed. The chemically bound water content is less, and the discharge temperature in the preheating section of the roasting kiln is generally 430℃~750℃.
Under the premise of fixed drying conditions, the moisture in the green body can be divided into free moisture and equilibrium moisture, and the free moisture must be removed to the maximum extent in the drying stage.
From a technological point of view, the moisture in the brick comes from the raw material itself containing water, the first stirring, the second stirring and the water addition of the extruder. The moisture content of bricks produced by different molding processes is quite different. In practice, people tend to pursue the output excessively, which reduces the extrusion pressure of the adobe, resulting in a decrease in strength and an increase in the moisture content of the adobe.
Some blind codes are high, which seriously exceeds the bearing capacity of the bottom bricks, and the yield of the fired products is very low. Under the premise of allowing, a molding process with low moisture content should be sought, which can ensure that the bricks are not deformed or cracked after they are placed on the kiln car, and the bottom bricks can withstand the pressure of the upper body.
(2) Green body drying mechanism
In the drying chamber, the drying medium (waste heat and hot flue gas) transfers heat to the surface of the green body through heat exchange. After the surface of the green body is heated, the heat is transferred to the interior of the green body by conduction, which is a heat transfer process. After the surface of the green body is heated, the surface water vaporizes and evaporates, and the water inside the green body moves to the surface due to the difference in material moisture, and then evaporates from the surface until the green body is dried, which is a mass transfer process.
It can be seen that the entire drying process is both a heat transfer process and a mass transfer process. The mass transfer process can be further divided into two processes, the process of surface water vaporization and evaporation to the air is called external diffusion, and the process of internal water moving to the surface is called internal diffusion. In the whole drying process, the heat transfer process, the external diffusion process and the internal diffusion process are interconnected and carried out simultaneously.
When the drying medium is stable and the green body does not undergo chemical changes, the green body drying can be divided into four stages:
①Acceleration stage
New cars are constantly entering the drying chamber. At this stage, the surface of the green body is heated to a temperature equal to the wet bulb temperature of the drying medium, and the evaporation rate of water increases rapidly. This stage is short, and the amount of water removed is not large. The drying medium has the lowest temperature and the highest humidity.
②Isokinetic drying stage
The water evaporated from the surface of the green body is continuously replenished from the inside to the surface of the green body, and the surface of the green body is always kept moist. At this stage, the drying speed remains unchanged, the surface temperature of the green body remains unchanged, and the water evaporates freely. The humidity of the drying medium gradually increases.
③ Slow down drying stage
The surface stops shrinking, and the continued drying only increases the pores inside the green body. The drying speed decreases, the heat energy consumption decreases, and the surface temperature of the green body increases.
④Balance stage
When the surface moisture of the green body reaches the equilibrium moisture, the drying speed is 0. Dry final moisture depends on the temperature and humidity of the drying medium. The drying stages are not fixed, and will be adjusted with the temperature and humidity of the drying medium. In practice, it is necessary to find out the drying curve suitable for the characteristics of the raw materials according to the specific situation.
By studying the drying mechanism and drying rate, it can be seen that the factors affecting the drying rate are essentially the factors affecting the heat transfer rate and diffusion rate. The factors affecting the heat transfer rate are the temperature, humidity and flow rate of the drying medium. Generally speaking, the unit How much heat is sent into the drying chamber over time.
In practice, this phenomenon often occurs. Some production lines send hot air into the drying room with a high temperature, but the drying speed is very slow and the drying effect is poor. This is because the air volume drawn by the fan is too small, and there is no air in the drying room. Get enough calories. In some production lines, the air supply temperature is lower, but the drying effect is very good. This is because the air volume is large and the drying room has obtained enough heat.

How to adjust the plasticity of raw materials for making bricks：
In order to overcome some shortcomings caused by raw materials in the production process, it is often necessary to increase or decrease its plasticity to meet the requirements of product technical conditions.
In the production of sintered bricks and tiles, the methods of improving the plasticity of raw materials generally use methods such as weathering, aging and batching to improve the plasticity of raw materials such as clay, shale and coal gangue.
1. natural aging
In order to destroy the natural structure of clay, shale, and coal gangue, it is necessary to withstand atmospheric action - weathering and freezing, especially when using colloidal and fertile clays that are difficult to loosen. The purpose of this is to make the natural moist raw materials disintegrate (mainly volume changes) under the repeated action of wind, rain, sun, snow, water absorption, drying, cold and heat, expansion and contraction, and become small. particles. At the same time, the raw materials undergo many chemical and physical changes during the weathering process, causing organic substances to decay, soluble salts to be leached, and sulfides to be oxidized, which changes the original composition and improves the technological performance of the raw materials.
Even in the highly mechanized brick factories in developed countries, in order to produce hollow products with high porosity and high quality, there is no shortage of weathering methods for the treatment of raw materials.
The raw materials of some brick factories in my country have been weathered, and their performance has been significantly improved. For example, the raw materials of two brick factories in Changsha, Hunan Province are all mountain soil. The raw materials just excavated have coarse particles, low plasticity, difficulty in forming, and poor quality of finished products; but after one year of weathering, the particles become finer and the plasticity is greatly improved, which can fully meet the Production needs, so these two brick factories have emphasized the use of "next year soil". After a freeze-thaw and weathering from winter to spring in the next year, the plasticity is improved. It should be noted that after the water in the air freezes into ice, the volume expands by 9%, resulting in a huge expansion stress, and the effect on the thinning of raw material particles is obvious.
However, weathering often greatly increases the natural moisture content of the raw materials (for example, the shale raw materials of a brick factory in Hunjiang, Jilin have a moisture content of 5% to 7% before weathering, and a moisture content of more than 13% after weathering), which is easy to be broken, crushed, Blockage of screening equipment and silos.
2. Chen Hua
Aging is to store the broken, crushed and watered raw materials in a closed room. Under the "splitting" action of water, the raw materials are further loosened, the water distribution is uniform, and the content of the organic and inorganic components of the colloid is increased, thereby achieving the purpose of improving its plasticity and improving its technological performance. After 3 days of aging of raw materials in a factory, the dry strength of the bricks has increased by 50%.
3. Refinement
Fine grinding of raw materials can separate out a sufficient amount of clay components, which is good for improving plasticity. Even raw materials without plasticity can obtain a certain degree of plasticity if they are finely ground, but this requires a large investment.
4. Homogenization
In actual production, raw materials with high plasticity are often mixed into raw materials with low plasticity to form raw materials with suitable plasticity. When using this method, great attention should be paid to the uniformity of the distribution of the two materials with different plasticity in the mixture, because the raw materials with low plasticity are often easier to loosen in water than the raw materials with high plasticity, while the clay with high plasticity is less It is easy to loosen, and the loosening of colloidal clay is more difficult. Therefore, if the blending is not uniform, the formed body will also be non-homogeneous, which will cause a lot of waste during the drying and roasting process.
5. Steam (hot water) heating
The mud is heated with steam (hot water) and formed by hot extrusion. After the mud is heated by steam (hot water), the water is evenly distributed in a short time, and penetrates into the gaps of the mud particles at a faster speed, thereby greatly improving the plasticity of the mud.
6. Vacuum treatment
The air entrapped in the mud will reduce its plasticity and cause foaming, delamination and cracks in the formed body. The use of vacuum extrusion molding can not only overcome the above defects, improve the plasticity of the mud, but also increase the strength and density of the green body.
The method of reducing the plasticity of raw materials is generally to add barren materials such as sand, slag, fly ash and clinker powder (such as waste brick powder) into the raw materials to reduce its plasticity. Especially after the internal combustion brick method has been widely used, the effect of adding a blend of combustible components into the raw material is better. If sand is mixed, quartz sand is generally used, and calcareous sand should not be used, because the addition of calcareous sand will reduce the quality of bricks.
When the barren material is mixed into the raw material, there is also the problem of whether the mixed material is evenly distributed in the raw material. Experience has proved that if the admixture is not evenly distributed in the raw material, it will bring bad consequences to the product, reduce the strength, and cause cracks in severe cases.
In short, different raw materials should have different processing methods. Through effective processing, each unit of the raw materials has the same mineral composition, the same particle composition, and the same water content. The raw materials used for making billets have excellent uniformity and stable plasticity.
