The invention provides modified ceramsite capable of efficiently removing
phosphorus and preparation method of modified ceramsite. The modified ceramsite is prepared by taking
papermaking white mud and
fly ash as main
raw material, and is prepared from, by weight, 40-60% of
papermaking white mud and 40-60 wt% of
fly ash. The preparation method comprises the following steps: (1) taking papermakingwhite mud and
fly ash as main raw materials, uniformly mixing the main raw materials according to a ratio, and preparing green
pellets with the particle size controllable in a range of 2-20mm by usinga centrifugal ball forming
machine; (2) naturally curing the green
pellets prepared in the step (1) for 20-24 hours,
drying at 105 DEG C, and finally calcining to obtain ceramsite; (3) putting the ceramsite obtained in the step (2) into a KH2PO4 solution with the
total phosphorus concentration of 15-20mg / L, statically adsorbing until saturation, and taking out; and (4)
drying the ceramsite subjected to adsorption saturation at 105 DEG C for 1-2 hours, and calcining in a
sintering furnace to obtain the modified ceramsite capable of efficiently removing
phosphorus. The ceramsite prepared by theinvention has alkali supply and
calcium release capabilities before and after modification, and can achieve the purpose of
phosphorus removal. The modified ceramsite prepared by the invention is highin speed, large in adsorption capacity and remarkable in effect when used for adsorbing and removing phosphorus.
