Abstract

This study investigated the recovery of metallic aluminium in the black dross generated from used beverage can recycling process with crushing mechanism such as compression and impact. The as-received Al black dross had a spherical shape, and its size was about 10~40 mm. Also, The X-ray diffraction pattern showed that the main contents of black dross are composed of halite (NaCl), sylvite (KCl), spinel ($MgAl_2O_4$) and corundum ($Al_2O_3$). A metallic aluminium recovery test was performed using jaw crusher and hammer mill having different crushing mechanism. It was analysed that Jaw crushing process can separate into metallic aluminium and non metallic constituents. However, hammer milling process shows significant difference on the separation results. It was found that jaw crushing process was effective for recovery of metallic aluminium in the black dross than that of hammer milling process.

본 연구는 UBC 재활용 용해공정 중 발생한 블랙 드로스 내 금속 알루미늄을 회수하기 위해 압축 및 충격 파쇄 공정에 따른 알루미늄 회수율에 대하여 조사하였다. 초기 알루미늄 블랙 드로스는 대부분 구형의 형상으로 약 10~40 mm 크기였다. 또한 블랙 드로스의 주요 구성 성분은 할라이트(NaCl), 실바이트(KCl), 스피넬($MgAl_2O_4$) 및 알루미나($Al_2O_3$)로 나타났다. 알루미늄 금속의 회수율 시험은 서로 다른 파쇄 기구를 갖는 죠 크러셔와 햄머밀 공정으로 진행하였다. 파쇄 기구에 따른 알루미늄 금속 회수 실험결과, 죠 크러셔 공정은 금속과 비금속 혼합물을 분리할 수 있었으나 햄머밀 공정은 금속과 비금속의 분리가 어려운 것으로 관찰되었으며 알루미늄 블랙드로스 내 금속 알루미늄을 회수하기 위한 파쇄 공정은 죠 크러셔 공정이 더 효과적인 것으로 보여진다.
