Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of industrial wastewater resource recycling and utilization, and particularly relates to a method for the separate collection and cascade reuse of copper smelting wastewater. Background Art
[0002] The copper smelting process is characterized by high water consumption and diverse water quality requirements. The main water-consuming units in a copper smelter include replenishment water for the circulating cooling water system, replenishment water for the desalted water station, water for the acid production process, and replenishment water for the slag slow cooling area. The wastewater generated during copper smelting is diverse and complex in composition, resulting in lengthy wastewater treatment processes and high energy consumption.
[0003] Currently, although most domestic copper smelters have implemented differentiated water supply and drainage, production wastewater from each process section is directly discharged to a wastewater treatment station for separate treatment. Qualified reused water produced by the wastewater treatment station is then reused at the appropriate water points. For example, the production wastewater drainage system collects clean sewage from the desalination station and wastewater from the circulating water systems, sending it to the production wastewater treatment station for treatment. The domestic sewage drainage system collects wastewater from domestic facilities throughout the plant and sends it to the domestic sewage treatment station for treatment. The waste acid and acidic wastewater drainage system collects waste acid from the flue gas acidification process and acidic wastewater from each process section, sending them to the waste acid and acidic wastewater treatment station for treatment. Qualified water treated at each wastewater treatment station is then reused according to quality for different water use units. However, this approach fails to consider cascaded utilization and directly discharges wastewater to various wastewater treatment stations for treatment. This results in large wastewater treatment volumes and the large scale of wastewater treatment stations. This requires increased water recovery rates in the membrane concentration stage, increasing the complexity of wastewater treatment and raising investment and operating costs, resulting in insignificant environmental benefits.

[0034] Example 2 A copper smelter adopts the method of wastewater separation and collection and cascade reuse of copper smelter wastewater of the present invention to treat wastewater. Figure 2 , the implementation process is as follows: The process units of the copper smelter are divided into first-level water use units, second-level water use units, third-level water use units and final water use units according to the different water quality of their water use; the first-level water use units are the desalted water station, waste heat boiler, living facilities of the whole plant and sulfur dioxide fan cooling unit; the second-level water use units are various circulating water stations, including furnace body circulating water station, equipment circulating water station, oxygen station circulating water station, waste heat power generation circulating water station and acid production circulating water station; the third-level water use unit is the casting circulating water unit; the final water use units are the slag slow cooling field, blowing slag granulation unit, acid production section ground washing water unit, flue gas purification process water adding unit, greening and road sprinkling water unit.
[0035] The water supply systems of the entire plant are: new production water, domestic water, desalted water, and high-quality reuse water, primary reuse water, reclaimed water and high-salt reuse water after wastewater separation treatment; the drainage systems of the entire plant are: clean sewage from the desalted water station, direct cooling water discharged from the sulfur dioxide fan cooling unit, general production wastewater generated by various circulating water stations, domestic sewage generated by the living facilities of the entire plant, acidic wastewater generated by flue gas acid production, acidic wastewater generated by waste acid treatment and initial rainwater.
[0036] The desalted water station and sulfur dioxide blower cooling unit use new production water or high-quality recycled water as their water source. Domestic facilities throughout the plant use domestic water as their water source, and the waste heat boiler uses desalted water as its water source. Various circulating water stations are supplied with clean sewage and direct cooling water, with any shortfalls supplemented by new production water. Casting circulating water uses general production wastewater from the second-stage water-using unit as its water source. High-salt recycled water is used for the slag slow cooling area, with any shortfalls supplemented by primary recycled water. Primary recycled water is used for ground washing in the blowing slag granulation unit and acidification section, for the preparation of waste acid and acidic wastewater treatment reagents, and for adding water to the flue gas purification process. Recycled reclaimed water is used for landscaping and road irrigation.
[0037] In this embodiment, the 1300m3 of desalted water in the first-stage water unit is used 3 / d water volume for desalination, and 335m 3 / d Clean sewage is supplied to the furnace body circulating water station, equipment circulating water station, oxygen station circulating water station, waste heat power generation circulating water station for recycling, and then 8500m 3 / d produces new water for replenishment, generating 1250m 3 / d of general production wastewater; 965m 3 Demineralized water is supplied to waste heat boilers (including smelting waste heat boilers and acid conversion waste heat boilers) daily. Since the impurities in the concentrated water discharged from the demineralized water station are solely concentrated salts from municipal water and are free of other pollutants, it can be used as clean sewage. Its water quality meets the requirements of GB19923-2024, "Municipal Wastewater Recycling - Industrial Water Quality," and can be directly supplied to the circulating water station for use.
[0038] 1920m 3 / d of new production water is supplied to the sulfur dioxide fan cooling unit, and after the cooling is completed, the 1920m 3 / d of direct cooling water is supplied to the acid production circulating water station for recycling, and then 2320m 3 / d of new water production to supplement, generating 570m 3 / d of general production wastewater.
[0039] The 500m3 generated by the second-level water unit 3 / dGeneral production wastewater is supplied to the casting circulating water unit for recycling. Since the casting circulating water unit (referring to the circulating water for disc casting in the copper smelting process) is a turbid circulation system, the production has lower requirements for water quality. The sewage from the indirect cooling open circulating cooling water system (circulating water station) can be used as the supplementary water for the casting cycle, which can greatly reduce the amount of general production wastewater entering the wastewater treatment station and reduce the scale of the wastewater treatment station. 3 / dGeneral production wastewater is supplied to the slag slow cooling field for recycling, and the remaining 970m 3 / d General production wastewater and initial rainwater in the factory area are pretreated. The production wastewater pretreatment adopts the process of hardness removal-coagulation-sedimentation-filtration-disinfection to obtain pretreated water. 3 / d of pre-treated water was subjected to deep wastewater treatment, which was treated by ultrafiltration-two-stage reverse osmosis process to obtain 200m 3 / d of high-salinity recycled water and 700m 3 / d of high-quality recycled water. 3 / d of high-salt recycled water is supplied to the slag slow cooling field for recycling, 3 / d of high-quality recycled water is supplied to the desalination plant for utilization. Pretreated water undergoes advanced wastewater treatment, and the resulting reverse osmosis product can replace new production water as high-quality recycled water and be reused in the desalination plant as raw water. The primary pollutant in the reverse osmosis concentrate is salt, meeting the requirements of GB 25467-2010, "Copper, Nickel, and Cobalt Industrial Pollutant Emission Standards." This high-salt recycled water can be used in the slag slow cooling area.
[0040] 150m 3 / d of domestic water supply is supplied to the living facilities of the whole plant, generating 130m 3 / d domestic sewage, 130m 3 / d domestic sewage is sent to the domestic sewage treatment station for sewage treatment, and 130m 3 / d recycled water, domestic sewage station adopts screen-denitrification-A / O biological contact oxidation-precipitation-filtration-disinfection treatment process, the treated water meets the requirements of GBT18920-2020 "Urban Wastewater Recycling and Urban Miscellaneous Water Quality" standard, 130m 3 / d recycled water is used for greening and road irrigation. At the same time, 70m3 of wastewater that has not been deeply treated is used. 3 / d of pretreated water is also used as recycled water for greening and road irrigation.
[0041] The waste acid discharged from the flue gas acidification section is treated with sulfide arsenic removal and lime neutralization in the waste acid treatment station to produce acidic wastewater, which is then combined with the acidic wastewater produced in the flue gas acidification section and the initial rainwater in the sulfuric acid area and sent to the acid wastewater treatment station for acid waste treatment. The acid wastewater treatment station uses lime iron salt to remove heavy metals - aluminum salt to remove fluoride - electrochemical treatment process to remove heavy metals and other impurities in the wastewater, and neutralizes the wastewater to obtain 1650m 3 / d primary recycled water, the treated primary recycled water meets the requirements of GB 25467-2010 "Copper, Nickel and Cobalt Industrial Pollutant Emission Standard". 3 / d primary recycled water is supplied to the slag slow cooling area (650m 3 / d), blowing slag granulation unit (100m 3 / d), acid production section ground flushing water unit (10m 3 / d) and flue gas purification process water adding unit (890m 3 / d).
[0042] Comparative Example 1 A copper smelter uses the method of collecting and recycling wastewater from copper smelter for wastewater treatment. The process is based on Figure 3 , and its implementation process is as follows: 13340m 3 / d produced new water is supplied to the desalination station (600m 3 / d), sulfur dioxide fan cooling unit (1920m 3 / d)、Casting circulating water unit (500m 3 / d) and various circulating water stations (10320m 3 / d), of which the furnace circulating water station, equipment circulating water station, oxygen station circulating water station, and waste heat power generation circulating water station supply a total of 8000m 3 / d, acid production circulating water station supplies 2320m 3 / d, and the 1920m3 of sulfur dioxide discharged by the fan cooling unit 3 / d Direct cooling water is supplied to the acid production circulating water station.
[0043] The 1820m3 produced by various circulating water stations 3 / d General production wastewater, 335m3 of desalted water station output 3 / d clean sewage and initial rainwater from the factory are used for pre-treatment of production wastewater to obtain 2155m 3 / d pre-treated water. 2085m 3 / d of pre-treated water was subjected to deep wastewater treatment to obtain 550m 3 / d high-salinity recycled water and 1535m 3 / d of high-quality recycled water.3 / d of high-salt recycled water is supplied to the slag slow cooling field for recycling, 3 / d of high-quality recycled water is supplied to the desalted water station (700m 3 / d) and various circulating water stations (835 m 3 / d) for reuse. 3 / d desalted water is supplied to waste heat boilers (including smelting waste heat boilers and acid conversion waste heat boilers).
[0044] 150m 3 / d of domestic water supply is supplied to the living facilities of the whole plant, generating 130m 3 / d domestic sewage, 130m 3 / d domestic sewage is sent to the domestic sewage treatment station for sewage treatment, and 130m 3 / d recycled water, and 70m3 of wastewater that has not been deeply treated 3 / d of pretreated water is also used as recycled water for greening and road irrigation.
[0045] The waste acid discharged from the flue gas acidification section is treated by sulfidation to remove arsenic and lime neutralization in the waste acid treatment station to produce acidic wastewater, which is then combined with the acidic wastewater produced in the flue gas acidification section and the initial rainwater in the sulfuric acid area and sent to the acidic wastewater treatment station for acid waste treatment to obtain 1650m 3 / d primary recycled water. The 1650m 3 / d primary recycled water is supplied to the slag slow cooling area (650m 3 / d), blowing slag granulation unit (100m 3 / d), acid production section ground flushing water unit (10m 3 / d) and flue gas purification process water adding unit (890m 3 / d).
[0046] The present invention classifies the water quality of the water used in the process units of the whole plant and divides it into several water use units. The wastewater generated by the water use units at each level is directly utilized in a sequential and cascade manner. The wastewater generated by the first-level water use unit is supplied to the second-level water use unit, and the wastewater generated by the second-level water use unit is supplied to the third-level water use unit. The wastewater discharged from the whole plant is then collected and treated according to quality and reused in the water use units. This greatly reduces the scale of the wastewater treatment station, simplifies the wastewater collection network, and comprehensively optimizes the water supply and drainage balance of the whole plant. It has the advantages of high water recycling rate, low engineering cost and operating cost, energy saving and environmental protection.
[0047] According to the comparison of wastewater treatment capacity between the comparative example and the embodiment, the production wastewater pretreatment in this embodiment only needs to treat 970m3 of wastewater. 3 / d, while the pretreatment of production wastewater in the comparative proportion requires 2155m 3 Thus, by adopting the method for separate collection and cascade reuse of copper smelter wastewater for wastewater treatment according to the present invention, the treatment scale of the production wastewater treatment station is reduced by more than 50% of the wastewater treatment volume, which greatly reduces the investment and operating costs of wastewater treatment and has good economic benefits.
