Abstract

A carbonized brick of recycled concrete powders and a preparation method thereof are provided, belonging to the field of concrete materials. The preparation method includes: adding composition A to a liquid storage tank; introducing composition B into the liquid storage tank to react with a solid waste solution to generate calcium bicarbonate solution; filling recycled powders into a molding die, decomposing the calcium bicarbonate solution by heat, reacting generated carbon dioxide with calcium ions leached from a C—S—H gel in the recycled powders to produce calcium carbonate, and precipitating, crystallizing and cementing in the molding die together with calcium carbonate produced by decomposing calcium bicarbonate solution, and resulting in strength of the recycled powders.

A preparation method of a carbonized brick of recycled concrete powders, comprising following steps:

(1) weighing a composition A with a certain mass and adding the composition A into a liquid storage tank with deionized water as a source of calcium ions, wherein the composition A is industrial solid waste materials;
(2) introducing gases of a composition B into the liquid storage tank, controlling a gas flow rate to be 0.30-0.60 liter per minute, starting a stirring device, reacting with a solid waste solution to generate a calcium bicarbonate solution, keeping a temperature of the liquid storage tank at 4-8 degrees Celsius, wherein the calcium ions are highly soluble and favorable for calcite formation under 4-8 degrees Celsius, and solid waste materials are hydrolyzed when a pH value in the liquid storage tank is reduced to 6.0-6.3 and kept constant, with storage of carbon dioxide reaching saturation;
then, temporarily stopping introducing the gases, and replacing a new composition A in the liquid storage tank, wherein the composition B is air or industrial waste gas containing carbon dioxide;
(3) weighing 30 parts of component C of recycled powders, and filling into a molding die, connecting the molding die with the liquid storage tank through a pipeline, wherein the pipeline is configured with a water pump used for pumping the calcium bicarbonate solution from the liquid storage tank circularly into the molding die with a solution flowing rate of 1.0 meter per second-3.0 meter per second, controlling a temperature of the molding die to be 45-55 degrees Celsius, heating to decompose the calcium bicarbonate solution to generate carbon dioxide, allowing the carbon dioxide generated to react with calcium ions leached by C—S—H gel in the recycled powders to produce calcium carbonate, followed by precipitating, crystallizing and cementing the recycled powders in the molding die together with the calcium carbonate produced by a decomposition of the calcium bicarbonate solution to develop strength;
(4) turning off the water pump and stopping pumping the calcium bicarbonate solution when a pressure at an inflow of the solution into the molding die reaches 1.5 to 3 megapascal when the recycled powders in the molding die are cemented and a strength is developed;
and
(5) waiting for about 30 minutes to remove the molding die, and leaving to dry under natural conditions before putting into use;
