The invention relates to a method for removing
fluorine from a
zinc sulfate solution with active
alumina. The method comprises the following steps: A, removing
fluorine through adsorption: adding active
alumina to the
zinc sulfate solution, removing most
fluorine through adsorption to the content of fluorine in the solution of less than 0.1 g / L, filtering, allowing the low fluorine
zinc sulfate solution to enter into a zinc
hydrometallurgy process, and allowing a filter residue to enter into a washing process; B, washing: adding water to the filter residue obtained in step A, washing, filtering, allowing a filtrate to enter into a zinc
precipitation process, and allowing a filter residue to enter into a regeneration process; C, regenerating: adding water and caustic soda to the filter residue obtained in step B, regenerating, filtering, allowing a filtrate to enter into a waste
water processing process, allowing a filter residue to enter into an adsorption fluorine removal process to obtain active
alumina for removing fluorine from a next zinc sulfate solution; D, precipitating zinc: adding a zinc precipitant into the filtrate obtained in the step B, precipitating zinc, filtering,allowing a filtrate to enter into the waste
water processing process, and allowing a filter residue to enter into the zinc
hydrometallurgy process; and E,
processing waste water: adding sulfuric acidand a
water processing agent into the filtrates obtained in step C and step D, and discharging when standards are reached. The method has the characteristics of simplicity and easy operation, low cost,
environmental protection, good fluorine removal effect, remarkable economic benefit and the like.
