Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a purification process for dilute sulfuric acid acid wastewater containing nitric acid generated during the resource treatment of desulfurization waste liquid in the coking industry, and in particular to a treatment agent for removing nitric acid from dilute sulfuric acid and a preparation and use method thereof, belonging to the technical field of coking wastewater treatment. Background Art

[0002] With increasing environmental pressure, the management and control of various hazardous wastes and production byproducts has become a challenge for the coking industry. The treatment of desulfurization wastewater generated by HPF desulfurization of coke oven gas is a key factor hindering the effective removal of H2S during the gas purification process. The main components of the desulfurization liquid are ammonium thiocyanate, ammonium thiosulfate, ammonium sulfate, desulfurizer, and elemental sulfur. The content of secondary salts and suspended sulfur is the primary factor limiting desulfurization effectiveness. The coking industry generally agrees that the concentration of secondary salts in the desulfurization liquid should be ≤ 250 g / L. Exceeding this range will result in excessive H2S at the desulfurization tower outlet. Because desulfurization wastewater is primarily composed of salts and is highly corrosive, the long-term, large-scale direct discharge of this wastewater can seriously pollute the environment and harm public health. Using desulfurization wastewater as a raw material for acid production fundamentally addresses this issue and allows for the recovery of sulfur resources. During the wet desulfurization process of coke oven gas, large amounts of desulfurization wastewater are discharged, producing low-quality sulfur, sulfur paste, and sulfur sludge. Currently, the sulfur foam produced by wet oxidation desulfurization of coke oven gas in China is mostly recovered using a melting kettle or filtration / filter pressing to recover sulfur sludge / sulfur filter cake. These sulfur recovery processes suffer from severe equipment corrosion, discontinuous production, harsh operating environments for workers, and low sulfur product purity. Desulfurization wastewater contains abundant sulfur resources, both in the by-salts and sulfur. Acid production technology can recover this sulfur resource and produce sulfuric acid and steam. The sulfuric acid can be used as a feedstock for ammonium sulfate production in the ammonium sulfate unit of the gas purification system or for export. The steam can be used to preheat air or reduce pressure during the acid production process and be incorporated into the steam network.

[0003] The desulfurization waste liquid acid production process is a technical route that has been widely adopted in recent years. There are three main desulfurization waste liquid acid production processes currently used in the industry: wet acid production, dry acid production and semi-dry acid production. The main difference between the three is the different treatment of desulfurization waste liquid in the pretreatment section. Apart from that, the three are similar in terms of the process principles and production operations of the incineration system, purification system, conversion system and dry absorption system. Since the catalyst used in the existing conversion system is a dry acid production catalyst, the moisture content of the flue gas before entering the conversion catalyst must be reduced to ≤0.1g / Nm3 by washing, drying and other methods before entering the conversion section. 3Therefore, the water in the desulfurization waste liquid and the salts in it produced during the incineration process in the incinerator are discharged in the form of dilute sulfuric acid during the purification stage. Theoretically, if the incineration process is ideally controlled, the composition of this dilute acid is relatively simple and can be completely digested by the ammonium sulfate section within the enterprise. However, a large amount of ammonium salts in the desulfurization waste liquid will produce NO during the incineration process. x Completely suppressing its production at the source is extremely difficult. Consequently, these nitrogen oxides produce dilute nitric acid within the purification system, resulting in impure dilute sulfuric acid. Once entering the ammonium sulfate unit's saturator, this can cause foaming and disrupt ammonium sulfate crystallization. Effectively handling this dilute sulfuric acid mixed with nitric acid has become a common technical challenge within the industry.

[0004] There are currently no effective measures for the treatment of dilute acid in the coking industry. Some companies neutralize the acid by adding sodium hydroxide and then send it to the company's wastewater treatment system. However, this method is costly and also increases the load on biochemical, recycled water, and subsequent zero-discharge. In terms of waste sulfuric acid denitrification, Li Jianchang et al. (Li Jianchang, Zi Can, Liang Xiaofeng, et al. Simulation and optimization of atmospheric pressure treatment process for waste sulfuric acid containing nitrate [J]. Modern Chemical Industry, 2023, 43(04): 209-212.) established a denitrification-concentration atmospheric pressure treatment process for waste sulfuric acid containing nitrate based on quartz distillation equipment and combined with the physical properties and separation requirements of waste sulfuric acid containing nitrate; however, the quartz tower is not suitable for large-scale application in the strong acid industry. Lin Baoguo (Lin Guobao. Experimental study on the removal of nitrate from reagent sulfuric acid products (I) [J]. Guangzhou Chemical Industry, 2023, 51(12): 93-95+128.) used urea for denitration in the experiment. The reaction time of urea reagent solution with concentrated sulfuric acid sample was controlled within 2-3 minutes, and the sulfuric acid denitration effect was achieved at a reaction temperature of 30-90°C. This experiment mainly focused on the removal of nitrate from concentrated sulfuric acid. Multi-stage nanofiltration membranes were also used for treatment; however, there was no method for denitration of dilute sulfuric acid in the coking industry. Therefore, the treatment of dilute nitric acid contained in dilute sulfuric acid has become a technical problem in the acid production of the coking industry. It is of great significance to study how to remove dilute nitric acid from dilute sulfuric acid. Summary of the Invention
