[0047] A control module for controlling the fluorine-containing waste acid regulating water tank 1, the mixing reactor 2, the fully automatic drum microfiltration machine 3, and the inorganic membrane separation equipment 4;
[0048] The fully automatic drum microfilter 3 is also provided with a washing device and a drying device. The washing device is used to wash the separated solids, and the drying device is used to dry the washed solids. The washing water return pipe of the washing device is connected to the fluorine-containing mixed waste acid regulating water tank. A flow sensor is provided on the washing water return pipe, and the flow sensor is electrically connected to the control system module.
[0049] A method for recycling fluorine-containing waste acid, comprising the following steps:
[0050] S1. Waste acid pretreatment: Fluorine-containing waste acid is discharged from the glass thinning production line into the fluorine-containing waste acid regulating water tank 1, where it is buffered and regulated. The volume of the fluorine-containing waste acid regulating water tank 1 is used to allow the glass slag in the waste acid to settle to the bottom of the cone. The cone bottom sludge pump discharges the precipitated slag according to a preset timing program. The liquid level sensor monitors the liquid level in real time and transmits the data to the control module. When the liquid level approaches the warning value, the control module automatically issues an early warning.
[0051] S2, reaction treatment: the precipitated waste acid is pumped into the mixing reactor 2 through a pneumatic diaphragm pump, and the three parts of the mixing reactor 2 work alternately according to a sequential control algorithm; the control module uses a proportional-integral-differential PID control algorithm to control the automatic dosing device 5 to accurately add the reagent based on the reaction environment data collected by the temperature sensor and the pH sensor, and at the same time controls the stirring speed of the stirring device to ensure that the reagent reacts fully with the waste acid and remove the fluorosilicic acid impurities in the waste acid;
[0052] S3, solid-liquid separation: The waste acid treated in the mixing reactor 2 is pumped into the fully automatic drum microfiltration machine 3. The pressure sensor monitors the pressure difference on both sides of the filter in real time. When the pressure difference reaches the warning value, the control module controls the backwash device to start and calls purified water to wash the filter. The separated solids enter the washing device, which washes the solids. The washing water flows back to the fluorine-containing waste acid regulating water tank 1 through the reflux pipe. The flow sensor monitors the washing water flow in real time and transmits the data to the control module. The washed solids enter the drying device for drying to obtain the by-product fluorosilicate.
[0053] S4, membrane separation treatment: The waste acid leaving the fully automatic drum microfiltration machine 3 enters the inorganic membrane separation device 4. The concentration sensor and flow sensor monitor the flow rate of produced water and concentrated water and the liquid flow rate in real time. Based on the monitoring data, the control module uses the proportional-integral-differential PID control algorithm to adjust the pressure regulating device and the concentrated water return control device to achieve appropriate pressures on both sides of the membrane and the concentrated water return ratio to ensure that the produced water quality meets the standards.
[0054] S5. When the flow rate, pH value and fluoride ion concentration of the produced water meet the production process requirements after being tested by the online monitoring equipment, the produced water is returned to the acid temporary storage tank through the produced water return pipe; the concentrated water is returned to the fully automatic drum microfiltration machine 3 through the concentrated water return pipe for centrifugal filtration again.
[0055] During the waste acid recovery process, fluorine-containing waste acid is discharged from the glass thinning production line into the fluorine-containing waste acid regulating water tank 1, which has the function of buffering and regulating the waste acid flow and concentration fluctuations. Since the waste acid contains glass slag, the waste acid is allowed to stand still in the regulating water tank due to its large volume, and most of the glass slag is precipitated to the bottom of the cone. The sludge pump at the bottom of the cone discharges the precipitated slag according to a preset timing program to ensure smooth operation of subsequent equipment. At the same time, the liquid level sensor installed in the water tank monitors the liquid level in real time, and the data is transmitted to the control module. Once the liquid level approaches the warning value, the system automatically issues an early warning to prompt the operator to pay attention to the discharge of waste acid to avoid overflow risks.
[0056] The precipitated waste acid is pumped into the mixing reactor 2 by a pneumatic diaphragm pump. The mixing reactor 2 consists of three identical and alternately operating parts A, B, and C;
[0057] Phase 1: Waste acid is pumped into mixing reactor 2-A. At this time, the stirring device in mixing reactor 2-B continues to stir, allowing the previously added reagent to fully react with the waste acid. Mixing reactor 2-C then discharges the reacted acid to the next device according to the instructions of the control module. In mixing reactor 2-A, the automatic doser 5 accurately adds specific chemical reagents according to the process parameters preset by the control module. The reagents react with the fluorosilicic acid impurities in the waste acid. The temperature and pH sensors in the reactor collect reaction environment data in real time and feed it back to the control module every second. Based on the feedback, the control module instantly calculates and automatically adjusts the stirring speed and dosage.
[0058] Phase 2: Waste acid is pumped into the emptied mixing reactor 2-C, while mixing reactor 2-A continues to stir the reaction and mixing reactor 2-B is responsible for acid removal. Each reactor accurately performs its tasks under the automated process, and the control module monitors and coordinates the entire process to ensure seamless connection of each link.
[0059] Phase 3: Waste acid is pumped into the emptied mixing reactor 2-B, mixing reactor 2-C is stirred for reaction, and mixing reactor 2-A is discharged. This cycle is repeated, and automated optimization is used to improve reaction efficiency and waste acid treatment capacity.
[0060] The waste acid treated in mixing reactor 2 is pumped into a fully automatic drum microfiltration machine 3. This microfiltration machine is equipped with a filter screen. During operation, the drum rotates at a constant speed, and the waste acid is subjected to centrifugal force, causing the liquid to pass through the filter screen and enter the subsequent process, while solids adhere to the filter screen surface. A pressure sensor monitors the pressure difference across the filter screen in real time. Once the warning value is reached, indicating that the filter screen is approaching clogging, the control module immediately and automatically initiates a backwash program, using purified water to flush the filter screen to ensure continuous and efficient filtration. After filtering the mixed acid from the microfiltration machine, it meets the filtration requirements, and the separated solids can be washed. The washing water, monitored by a flow sensor, flows back to the high-concentration fluorine-containing mixed waste acid conditioning tank according to the control module's instructions, thus achieving water resource recycling. The washed solids enter the drying stage, where the temperature control system automatically and precisely adjusts the temperature and drying time according to a preset drying curve to ensure the stable output of the byproduct fluorosilicate.
[0061] The waste acid leaving the fully automatic drum microfiltration machine 3 enters the inorganic membrane separation equipment 4, which uses ultrafiltration membrane technology to drive the cross-flow filtration of the waste acid with the help of pressure. During the process, the concentration sensor monitors the flow rate of produced water and concentrated water in real time, and the flow sensor controls the liquid flow rate. The data is transmitted to the control module in real time. The control module dynamically adjusts the pressure on both sides of the membrane and the concentrated water return ratio parameters according to the produced water, concentrated water flow rate and liquid flow rate. When the flow rate, pH value and fluoride ion concentration indicators of the produced water are tested by the online monitoring equipment and confirmed to meet the production process requirements, the control module automatically guides the produced water back to the reuse acid temporary storage tank. The concentrated water is then instructed by the control module to flow back to the fully automatic drum microfiltration machine 3 for centrifugal filtration again based on the concentration monitoring results, ensuring zero waste liquid discharge of the entire system, maximizing resource recovery, and fully automated operation, stable and reliable.
[0062] The dosage of the reagent in S2 is based on the content of fluorosilicic acid in the waste acid, according to the formula: Calculated;
[0063] in, For the quality of the medicine, is the molar concentration of fluorosilicic acid, is the volume of waste acid, is the molar mass of the drug.
[0064] In the treatment of fluorine-containing waste acid, removing fluorosilicic acid impurities is a key step; this formula accurately determines the mass of the required reagent based on the stoichiometric relationship of the chemical reaction; taking the reaction of potassium chloride and fluorosilicic acid as an example, from the chemical equation It can be seen that the ratio of the amount of substances reacted by the two is 1:2; the dosage calculated by the formula can ensure that the reagent and fluosilicic acid fully react, so that fluosilicic acid can be converted into precipitate as much as possible, thereby efficiently removing fluosilicic acid impurities, improving the quality of waste acid, and meeting the quality requirements of the production process for recycled acid; if the dosage is insufficient, fluosilicic acid cannot react completely, resulting in an excessively high amount of fluosilicic acid residue in the waste acid, and the recycled acid does not meet the standard; if the dosage is too much, it will cause waste of reagents and increase processing costs.
[0065] The pressure is regulated according to the formula: Perform calculations;
[0066] in, is the pressure difference, is the set water production flow rate, is the solution viscosity, is the thickness of the film, is the membrane permeability, is the filtration area of the membrane, For impact indicators.
[0067] The calculation formula of the impact index is:
[0068] ;
[0069] in, The historical data influence coefficient has a value range of [0,1] and is used to measure the influence of historical data on the current pressure difference calculation. The larger the value, the more significant the impact of historical data; when When , it means that the impact of historical data is not considered; 、 Respectively represent the maximum and minimum values in the historical pressure difference data; used to calculate the extreme value difference. By analyzing the extreme pressure difference values in the historical data, the fluctuation range of the pressure difference can be captured, reflecting the extreme pressure changes that may occur during the operation of the equipment. The standard deviation of the historical pressure difference data is used to measure the degree of dispersion of the historical pressure difference data. The larger the standard deviation, the more drastic the fluctuation of the pressure difference data and the relatively poor stability of the equipment operation. Conversely, the smaller the standard deviation, the more stable the pressure difference data. is the adjustment coefficient, the value range is [−1,1], and it is adjusted according to the actual situation; when When , the influence of extreme value difference and standard deviation on pressure difference is positive, i.e., the pressure difference adjustment amplitude is amplified; when When , the impact is negative, reducing the adjustment range; when The influence of extreme value difference and standard deviation is not considered.
[0070] For example: In a fluorine-containing waste acid treatment process, the set water flow rate , solution viscosity , the thickness of the film , the membrane permeability , the filtration area of the membrane , historical data impact coefficient , adjustment coefficient , after analyzing the historical pressure difference data, we can get , , standard deviation , calculate the original pressure difference ;
[0071] Then calculate the optimized pressure difference:
[0072] ;
[0073] The optimized formula takes into account the fluctuations of historical data and can calculate the pressure difference more accurately, providing a more reliable basis for early judgment and control of the operation of inorganic membrane separation equipment. In actual applications, historical data can be continuously updated according to the real-time data of equipment operation, and relevant parameters can be recalculated to ensure the accuracy of pressure difference calculation and the stability of equipment operation.
[0074] The standard deviation of the historical pressure difference data The expression is:
[0075] ;
[0076] in, is the number of samples of historical pressure difference data, For the Historical pressure difference data values, is the average value of historical pressure difference data.
[0077] In actual calculations, first find the average value of the historical pressure difference data, then calculate the sum of the squares of the differences between each data and the average value, divide it by the number of samples, and take the square root to get the standard deviation; the larger the standard deviation, the more drastic the fluctuation of the historical pressure difference data, and the relatively poor stability of the equipment operation; conversely, the smaller the standard deviation, the more stable the pressure difference data.
[0078] The medicament is potassium chloride, sodium chloride, sodium sulfate or sodium fluoride.
[0079] Example 1: Using potassium chloride as a medicament;

The sodium chloride reacts with the fluosilicic acid in the waste acid to form sodium fluosilicate precipitate, effectively removing the fluosilicic acid impurities.

The filtered waste acid enters the inorganic membrane separation unit 4, where it is filtered until the recycled acid meets the production process requirements, with the hydrochloric acid content increased by 3.1%. The recycled acid is then returned to the recycled acid temporary storage tank, and the concentrated water is recirculated and processed according to the control module's instructions. Ultimately, the fluosilicic acid content in the waste acid is reduced to 0.41%.

The sodium sulfate reacts with the fluosilicic acid in the waste acid to form sodium fluosilicate precipitate, effectively removing the fluosilicic acid impurities.
[0087] The control module monitors the pH parameters within the mixing reactor 2 in real time. After one hour of full reaction, the waste acid is pumped into the fully automatic drum microfiltration unit 3, where the sodium fluorosilicate precipitate is trapped by the filter. Subsequent washing and drying processes produce a sodium fluorosilicate byproduct with a purity of approximately 98%. The filtered waste acid enters the inorganic membrane separation unit 4, where it is filtered until the recycled acid meets the production process requirements, with the sulfuric acid content increased by 4.5%. The recycled acid is then returned to the recycled acid temporary storage tank, and the concentrated water is recirculated and processed according to the control module's instructions. Ultimately, the fluorosilicic acid content in the waste acid is reduced to 0.47%.
[0088] Example 4: Sodium fluoride is used as the agent;

Automatic dosing device 5 precisely doses sodium fluoride solid (the molar ratio of sodium fluoride to fluosilicic acid is 2:1) into the reactor according to a preset program, with a dosing rate set at 1 kg / min. The sodium fluoride reacts with the fluosilicic acid in the waste acid to form sodium fluosilicate precipitate, effectively removing the fluosilicic acid impurities.
[0090] The control module monitors the pH parameters within the mixing reactor 2 in real time. After one hour of full reaction, the waste acid is pumped into the fully automatic drum microfiltration unit 3, where the sodium fluorosilicate precipitate is trapped by the filter. Subsequent washing and drying processes produce a sodium fluorosilicate byproduct with a purity of approximately 98%. The filtered waste acid then enters the inorganic membrane separation unit 4. After filtration, the recycled acid meets the production process requirements, with the hydrofluoric acid content increased by 1.3%. The recycled acid is then returned to the recycled acid temporary storage tank, and the concentrated water is recirculated and processed according to the control module's instructions.
