Abstract

The invention relates to a method for enhancing total mercury recovery rate of metallurgical fume by reducing bivalent mercury, which comprises steps as follows: (1) metallurgical fume discharged from a fume system is divided into two ways, the first way of fume directly enters an acid washing column, and the second way of fume is introduced into a sodium hydroxide washing column, so that SO2 in the fume reacts with NaOH to generate a solution of SO3<2-> or HSO3<-> or both; (2) the solution of SO3<2-> or HSO3<-> or both generated in the step (1) is introduced into the acid washing column as a reducer, wherein the introduction amount of the reducer is controlled, so that the mol ratio of the SO3<2-> or HSO3<-> concentration to the Hg<2+> concentration in the washing liquid in the acid washing column is kept within the range of 0.8-5000; and (3) the Hg<2+> in the acid washing column is directed reduced into HgO by the SO3<2-> or HSO3<-> in the reducer, and the HgO enters a subsequent mercury absorption column to be recycled through an exhaust port along with the fume. Compared with the prior art, the invention can greatly enhance the total mercury recovery rate of non-ferrous smelting fume, thereby achieving the goal of removing and recovering fume mercury more efficiently.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the non-ferrous metal smelting flue gas mercury emission control and recovery technology in the field of environmental protection, and relates to a method for reducing divalent mercury to improve the recovery rate of total mercury in metallurgical flue gas, using sulfite (SO 3 2- ), bisulfite (HSO 3 - ) or a mixture of the two to reduce the divalent mercury in the pickling tower to zero-valent mercury, so as to improve the recovery rate of total mercury in the subsequent flue gas zero-valent mercury recovery device (Poliden absorption tower, etc.). Background technique [0002] As we all know, mercury is a toxic pollutant with persistence, easy migration, high bioaccumulation, and strong toxicity. It is not only very harmful to the ecological environment, but also directly or indirectly harmful to human health. The "Minamata disease" incident that broke out in Japan in the 1950s and 1960s was a serious mercury pollution dis...
