The invention discloses a technology for removing mercury in contaminated acid
wastewater. The method specifically comprises the following steps of pumping contaminated acid
wastewater produced in a
sulfuric acid dynamic wave scrubbing process into a reaction tank, adding a strong oxidant KMnO4, then adding
lime milk for reaction, and then adding
sodium sulphide for reaction; adding a flocculating agent, namely
polyacrylamide into ore pulp after mercury removal, pumping the liquid into a plate and frame filter after the reaction to obtain filter liquor and filter residues, wherein the content of Hg in the obtained filter liquor is detected to be less than 0.03mg / L, and the content of the mercury in the filter residues is 0.264 to 20.33 percent, and collecting the filter residues. By adopting the technology provided by the invention to treat contaminated acid produced in the
sulfuric acid dynamic wave scrubbing process of the lead and
zinc smelting industry to remove the Hg, the
wastewater discharging reaches the standard, the operation is simple and reliable, and a production field test result shows that the novel technology is feasible technically. By using the technology in production practice for two years, the problem that the Hg in the contaminated acid produced by lead and
zinc smelting does not reach the standard is thoroughly solved. By adopting the technology provided by the invention to remove the mercury, the fact that the Hg of
discharge water is less than or equal to 0.03mg / L is guaranteed, and a method through which the
discharge reaches the standard is realized.
