Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of bromine extraction, and in particular relates to a bromine extraction method and application thereof by improving the bromide ion oxidation mode. Background Art
[0002] Bromine is one of the basic chemical raw materials for the production of flame retardants, fire extinguishing agents and photosensitive materials. my country's bromine extraction industry mainly uses Shandong underground brine as raw material, and also uses desalinated concentrated seawater, warm seawater discharged from power plants or chemical plants, or directly uses seawater as raw material to extract bromine.
[0003] At present, bromine extraction is almost always carried out using the process of "chlorine oxidation-air blowing-sulfuric acid dioxide method to capture foam-tail gas closed cycle". Chlorine is a toxic and hazardous chemical. If the equipment is not well sealed during the oxidation process, chlorine will escape into the air and pollute the operating environment. The high concentration of chloride ions in the stripping drainage causes salinization of surface water and soil and corrosion of water conservancy facilities. When the chloride ion concentration is high, calcium and magnesium will dissolve in large quantities. After the wastewater leaks from the tailings pond, it pollutes the groundwater, greatly increasing the concentration of calcium, magnesium and chlorine in the groundwater, seriously affecting the function of water. In severe cases, it cannot be used or used to irrigate farmland. The transportation and use of liquid chlorine are somewhat dangerous. Accidents of human and animal poisoning, and damage to farmland and fish ponds caused by chlorine leakage occur frequently in other industries.
[0004] There is another method of extracting bromine by using the process of "30% hydrogen peroxide oxidation - air blowing - sulfuric acid dioxide method to capture foam - tail gas closed cycle". Although the use of 30% hydrogen peroxide avoids a series of disadvantages of chlorine oxidation, the use of 30% hydrogen peroxide has the problem of excessively high oxidation costs, and the transportation and use of 30% hydrogen peroxide is dangerous to a certain extent. Explosions and fires caused by 30% hydrogen peroxide occur from time to time.
[0005] There is also a process of "10% sodium hypochlorite oxidation - air blowing - sulfuric acid dioxide method to capture foam - tail gas closed cycle" for bromine extraction. Although this method solves the risk of chlorine leakage, compared with chlorine oxidation to extract bromine, the process of 10% sodium hypochlorite oxidation to extract bromine doubles the acid consumption of the chlorine oxidation process. The price of sodium hypochlorite is several times more expensive than chlorine, which leads to an increase in production costs. Summary of the invention
[0006] 1. Problem to be solved
[0007] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, a low-cost and efficient method for industrial production of bromine without using chlorine oxidation is provided. The operation is safe and environmentally friendly, and a large amount of acidic high-salt wastewater will not be generated, which greatly reduces the production cost of the enterprise and solves the technical problems existing in the existing technology.
[0008] 2. Technical solution

[0015] (5) the mixed solution is pumped into an acid adding tank, and the pH value of the mixed solution is adjusted to 0-1 with 98% concentrated sulfuric acid, so that sodium bromide and sodium bromate react under the action of concentrated sulfuric acid to generate bromine and sodium sulfate, and finally obtain acidified bromine water containing bromine and sodium sulfate;
[0016] (6) introducing the acidified bromine water in the acid adding tank into the distillation tower, spraying the acidified bromine water from the top of the distillation tower, heating the acidified bromine water by water vapor in the distillation tower, and evaporating bromine from the acidified bromine water to become bromine vapor. The evaporated bromine vapor flows from bottom to top in the distillation tower, and finally enters the cooler from the top of the distillation tower.
