Abstract

The invention provides a process for treating acid wastewater in a mine and reclaiming valuable metals in the wastewater. The process comprises the following steps: (1) introducing the acid wastewater to a plurality of contact reactors in sequence and subsequently to a sulfate-reducing bioreactor; (2) through the control of return flow rate of a post-stage reactor, realizing the operation of each contact reactor in different pH, precipitating different metals; and (3) adopting food processing wastewater with the COD concentration of between 10,000mg/L and 100,000mg/L as a carbon source, and introducing the food processing wastewater to the sulfate-reducing bioreactor. In the process, the Cu2+removing rate in the acid wastewater of the mine reaches 99 percent, the Fe2+removing rate reaches 95 percent, the Fe3+removing rate reaches 90 percent, the pH of the processed wastewater is neutral, and the wastewater reaches the standard and can be discharged. The process has the advantages of utilizing the organic wastewater with the COD concentration of between 10,000mg/L and 100,000mg/L as the carbon source to reduce the cost of the carbon source, utilizing the design of phase splitting to reduce the inhibition of metallic ions to the wastewater, adopting return flow to reduce the inhibition of S2-ions to bacteria, and controlling the return flow rate to realize the selective precipitation of various valuable metals of the wastewater in each contact reactor on. The whole process can reduce the operating cost by 30 to 50 percent.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of water treatment, in particular to a process for treating acid mine acid wastewater and recovering valuable metals in the wastewater by using sulfate-reducing bacteria and organic wastewater with a COD concentration of 10,000 mg / L-100,000 mg / L. Background technique [0002] The use of sulfate-reducing bacteria to treat acid mine wastewater is to reduce the sulfate in acid mine wastewater to H through the biological reduction reaction of dissimilatory sulfate. 2 S, under different pH conditions, can use H 2 S selectively precipitates different heavy metals to form metal sulfides to remove heavy metal ions in wastewater and recover valuable metals. The alkalinity generated in the bioreduction reaction can neutralize acidic mine wastewater. The method has the characteristics of low cost, strong applicability, no secondary pollution, and the ability to recover heavy metals in acidic mine wastewater. Therefor...
