Problems solved by technology

Evaporation method has high treatment efficiency, can recover useful substances in wastewater at the same time, and has high operational flexibility, but it consumes a lot of energy and has high treatment costs
The ion exchange method has simple equipment and good removal effect, but the interference ions have a great impact on it. When the resin is regenerated, waste water will be generated, causing secondary pollution.
Membrane separation method has high treatment efficiency, low energy consumption, simple operation and strong adaptability, but it is costly and difficult to operate on a large scale
Bioabsorption raw materials come from a wide range of sources, with strong adsorption capacity and low energy consumption, but the adsorption conditions are harsh
The phytoremediation method has stable water quality, convenient maintenance and management, and good removal effect, but the cycle is long, and plants are limited by climate and geology.

Abstract

The invention provides a method for removing uranium by oxidation. The method comprises the following steps: mixing uranium-containing wastewater, pyrite and a buffer agent, regulating the pH value tobe neutral, introducing oxygen into the obtained mixed solution, and reacting. According to the method, the uranium is fixed to the surface of the pyrite through the adsorption or reduction effect ofthe pyrite, meanwhile, the uranium can also be fixed into the precipitate through iron oxide formed by oxidizing the pyrite, and therefore the purpose of removing the uranium in the uranium-containing wastewater is achieved. The method has the advantages of being simple in process, easy and convenient to operate, low in cost and capable of efficiently removing uranium, and has important theoretical guiding significance for repairing and treating the high-uranium underground water in the retired mining area of the neutral in-situ leaching uranium mining.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of uranium mine wastewater and in-situ leaching uranium mining, in particular to a method for oxidizing and removing uranium. Background technique [0002] According to my country's nuclear power medium and long-term development planning goals, the installed capacity of nuclear power in mainland my country is extremely large, and the requirement for the amount of uranium required for the development of nuclear power is extremely large. The mining and smelting of traditional uranium resources have a serious impact on the environment. With the research of a large number of in-situ leaching sandstone-type uranium deposits, in-situ leaching uranium mining technology has been fully applied in my country. [0003] In-situ leaching uranium mining technology is divided into acid in-situ leaching, alkaline in-situ leaching and neutral in-situ leaching according to different leaching agents. In the process of in-sit...
