Study on New Industrial Briquette Composite Binder Using Response Surface Methodology

Abstract:

To develop a new industrial briquette composite binder, response surface methodology was used to arrange experiments, with modified peat(MP），mixed wastes(WS)，modified clay 2(C2) and clay 1(C1) as raw materials. The experimental data was firstly processed utilizing the method of multi-factorial total probability formula evaluation. Then based on the regression analysis and model building, the optimum formula was obtained. Finally, the bonding mechanism was analyzed through a systematical study by means of both ESEM and TG-DTA. The results indicated that the briquette prepared according to the optimum formula, namely 4.4% of MP, 6.5% of WS, 2% of C1, 1% of C2, and correlative key parameters of briquetting technics, namely forming water 13%, drying temperature 180°C and drying time 2.5h had excellent performances, which could meet the demand of industrial production in enterprises.
