Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of industrial sewage treatment, and in particular relates to a clean production process for sewage acid treatment. Background Art
[0002] Industrial activities such as non-ferrous metal smelting and pyrite acid production will produce a large amount of waste acid, with a sulfuric acid concentration of 10 to 200 g / L. Traditional lime neutralization treatment will not only produce a large amount of water treatment neutralization slag mainly composed of calcium sulfate, but also due to the lack of effective utilization methods, large-scale storage will not only occupy land and cause ecological damage, but also pose risks such as groundwater pollution and dust. China is short of sulfur resources, and a large amount of sulfate ions in waste acid exist in the form of calcium sulfate, resulting in a large waste of sulfur resources.
[0003] Iron and iron oxide, copper and copper oxide can react with sulfuric acid to undergo neutralization reaction. The reaction products, ferrous sulfate, ferrous sulfate and cupric sulfate, can be concentrated and crystallized, and then decomposed to generate iron oxide, cupric oxide, sulfur dioxide and sulfur trioxide by high temperature roasting. The iron oxide and cupric oxide can be recycled for neutralization of waste acid, while sulfur dioxide and sulfur trioxide can be directly fed into the sulfuric acid production line of the enterprise to realize resource utilization. Based on the above principle, the present invention proposes a clean production process for waste acid treatment, which uses iron oxide / iron and cupric oxide / copper to neutralize waste acid, and realizes closed-loop use of iron oxide and cupric oxide and resource utilization of sulfur by crystallization and roasting of ferrous sulfate, ferrous sulfate and cupric sulfate.

[0007] Furthermore, the iron-containing oxide minerals are minerals such as hematite, siderite, etc. containing ferric oxide, ferrous oxide, iron carbonate, metallic iron, etc., and the copper-containing oxide minerals are minerals such as cuprite, malachite, azurite, etc.
[0008] Preferably, the low-concentration ferric sulfate / ferrous sulfate solution and copper sulfate solution produced by the neutralization in step (1) can be recycled to the flue gas purification section to increase the sulfate concentration thereof, so as to facilitate the subsequent crystallization and concentration of ferric sulfate / ferrous sulfate and copper sulfate.
[0009] Preferably, the low-temperature roasting temperature in step (2) is 50-300°C, the high-temperature roasting temperature is 300-800°C, and further, the high-temperature roasting temperature is 450-600°C.
[0010] Principle of the present invention: (1) After the waste acid is pretreated by heavy metal removal, iron / iron oxide and copper / copper oxide are added to the waste acid, which react with sulfuric acid to generate ferric sulfate / ferrous sulfate and copper sulfate, and the waste acid is neutralized; (2) Concentrating and crystallizing the ferrous sulfate / ferrous sulfate solution and copper sulfate solution produced by neutralizing the waste acid, and calcining the ferrous sulfate / ferrous sulfate crystals and copper sulfate crystals at low temperature to remove crystal water; (3) calcining the ferrous sulfate / ferrous sulfate and copper sulfate after removing the crystal water to decompose them into iron oxide, copper oxide, sulfur dioxide and sulfur trioxide; (4) The iron oxide and copper oxide obtained by high-temperature roasting can be reused for the neutralization of waste acid; the sulfur dioxide and sulfur trioxide obtained by high-temperature roasting can be reused for sulfuric acid production.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: (1) No water treatment and neutralization waste residue generation. The present invention completely avoids the generation of CaSO4 neutralization waste residue, reduces the generation of solid waste, and avoids the problems of ecological damage, groundwater pollution, etc. caused by its storage.
[0012] (2) Sulfur recycling.
