Embodiment 1

[0051] The ethylene spent lye was oxidized in wet air at 160°C (6MPa) for 5 hours without dilution and pH adjustment, and the resulting oxidized solution was neutralized to pH 4.64 with concentrated sulfuric acid, and the neutralized solution was crystallized by vacuum evaporation. Dried into Yuanming powder, part of the mother liquor is evaporated to freeze and crystallize, the freeze crystal is returned to the neutralization unit, and the frozen mother liquor is removed for biochemical treatment. Part of the evaporated mother liquor is returned to the neutralization unit to reduce the content of sodium carbonate and increase the yield of qualified products. The sodium sulfate content of the obtained sodium sulfate is 97.05%, which meets the "GB-T 6009-2003 Industrial Anhydrous Sodium Sulfate" Class II qualified product standard; the amount of the obtained frozen mother liquor is reduced to about 1 / 20 of the neutralization liquid amount, and the COD is 2800mg / L, total dissol...

Embodiment 2

[0054] The ethylene spent lye was oxidized in wet air at 180°C (6MPa) for 5 hours without dilution and pH adjustment, and the resulting oxidized solution was neutralized to pH 4.01 with concentrated sulfuric acid, and the neutralized solution was crystallized by vacuum evaporation. Dried into Yuanming powder, part of the mother liquor is evaporated to freeze and crystallize, the freeze crystal is returned to the neutralization unit, and the frozen mother liquor is removed for biochemical treatment. Part of the evaporated mother liquor is returned to the neutralization unit to reduce the content of sodium carbonate and increase the yield of qualified products.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for recycling sodium sulfate from a waste alkali liquor of an ethylene unit, specifically to a technology of wet oxidation treatment of the waste alkali liquor of ethylene and separation of sodium sulfate from a waste liquid. The method comprises the steps of: (1) under wet oxidizing condition, performing wet oxidation to the waste alkali liquor of ethylene by air or oxygen to obtain an oxidized liquid; (2) neutralizing the oxidized liquid to obtain a neutralization liquid; (3) crystallizing water-entrained anhydrous sodium sulfate from the neutralization liquid; (4) returning a part of evaporative mother liquor to a neutralizing unit and performing de-biochemical treatment for frozen mother liquor after freezing the other part of evaporative mother liquor to recycle sodium sulfate decahydrate, wherein the recycled sodium sulfate decahydrate returns to the neutralizing unit; and (5) drying the water-entrained sodium sulfate decahydrate to obtain anhydrous sodium sulfate product. The method solves the technical problem that high content of salt still impacts the biochemical system after deodorization of waste alkali liquor of ethylene through wet oxidation and biochemical treatment after dilution and can be used in the fields of petrochemical and chemical industries, environment protection, comprehensive utilization of resources and light industry and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technology that reclaims sodium sulfate from ethylene plant waste lye, more specifically relates to the technology of the wet oxidation treatment of waste lye and the technology that separates sodium sulfate from waste liquid, i.e. the oxidation of ethylene plant waste lye, Neutralize and crystallize to recover sodium sulfate. Background technique [0002] The acid gases in the ethylene cracking gas mainly include hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide, organic sulfur, etc. To remove the acid gases, the alkaline solution is used to contact and wash the cracking gas in countercurrent, and the waste liquid produced is called ethylene spent alkali. In addition to Na in waste lye 2 S, Na 2 CO 3 , NaOH and a small amount of Na 2 SO 3 、Na 2 S 2 o 3 In addition, it also contains organic sulfur compounds such as mercaptans, so it has an unpleasant odor. [0003] The methods for treating waste ethylene lye include direct ...
