The invention discloses a
gypsum crystallization modifier suitable for wet type
calcium-based desulphurization of a thermal power
generating unit, and the
gypsum crystallization modifier can effectively eliminate the
impact of heavy
metal ions and oil contaminations in
gypsum slurry on gypsum
crystallization process to obtain gypsum crystals with coarse and large particles and low
water content, increases stability of the desulfurization
system, and belongs to the technical field of
environmental protection. The gypsum crystallization modifier comprises the following components by weight: 0.1-5% of an oil-removing agent, 85-95% of a
metal complexing agent and 5-10% of a surfactant, and is characterized in that the gypsum crystallization modifier can be directly added into an absorption
tower or an absorption
tower filtrate pit, then mixed evenly and dissolved for pumping. The gypsum crystallization modifier can accelerate the oxidation of sulfites and the gypsum crystallization process, is appropriate to improve the efficiency of the desulfurization
system. In the embodiment, the gypsum crystallization modifier concentration is increased from 0% to 0.1%, the by-product gypsum purity is improved from 78% to 93%, the gypsum
water content is reduced from 19% to 10%, the
crystal size distribution is more uniform,
acicular gypsum crystals are decreased, rhombic
crystal share and columnar
crystal share increase, the crystal specific surface area increases, and the gypsum
dewatering performance is better.
