Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of biotechnology, and in particular to a method for the targeted recycling of pickling wastewater. Background Technology

[0002] Pickling is a crucial step in steel production and processing. Its core function is to treat the steel surface with an acid solution to effectively remove the iron oxide scale formed during processes such as annealing, eliminate chromium-depleted areas on the metal surface, and ultimately lay the foundation for the formation of a uniform and stable anti-rust film on the steel surface. In actual production, a mixed acid system of nitric acid (HNO3) and hydrofluoric acid (HF) is commonly used to treat the steel surface during pickling. However, the above pickling process generates a large amount of wastewater with complex composition, the main chemical component of which is hydrogen ions (H+). + ), nitrate ions (NO3) - Hydrofluoric acid (HF), as well as nitrates of metals such as iron, chromium, and nickel (e.g., Fe(NO3)3, Cr(NO3)3, Ni(NO3)2) and fluorides (e.g., FeF3, FeF2) + CrF3, CrF2 + NiF + wait).

This wastewater contains substances such as fluorine (F), iron (Fe), chromium (Cr), and nickel (Ni), which are not only important resources but also pollutants requiring strict control. Currently, the industry primarily uses lime neutralization to treat pickling wastewater. However, this method has significant drawbacks: firstly, lime neutralization generates a large amount of sludge containing chromium and nickel, which can only be disposed of as hazardous waste, significantly increasing the company's hazardous waste disposal costs; secondly, resources with high recovery value, such as F, Fe, Cr, and Ni, contained in the wastewater are not effectively utilized, resulting in serious resource waste.

[0041] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a pickling wastewater treatment system provided by the present invention;

[0042] Figure 2 This is a flowchart of a method for treating pickling wastewater according to an embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0043] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below. The specific embodiments listed below are merely descriptions of the principles and features of the present invention, and the examples are only for explaining the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0044] Currently, the steel pickling industry generates a large amount of pickling wastewater containing fluorine (F), iron (Fe), chromium (Cr), and nickel (Ni). Existing pickling wastewater treatment methods generally use sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to adjust the pH value to recover Fe, Cr, and Ni, and then recover F resources through a defluorinating agent after recovering Fe, Cr, and Ni.

[0045] Through extensive research and experimentation, this invention has found that existing methods for treating pickling wastewater have the following shortcomings:

[0046] (1) The main forms of F in pickling wastewater are free F and complexed F. If Fe, Cr and Ni are recovered directly in the form of Fe(OH)3, Cr(OH)3 and Ni(OH)2 according to the existing treatment methods, it is easy to cause F and Fe, Cr and Ni complexes to precipitate together, which in turn leads to low recovery purity of Fe(OH)3, Cr(OH)3 and Ni(OH)2, and low recovery rate of F (only 40%-60%).

[0047] (2) The precipitation pH ranges of Fe(OH)3 and Cr(OH)3 are similar (Fe 3+ The initial precipitation occurs at a pH of approximately 2.5, Cr 3+ The initial precipitation occurs at a pH of approximately 3.5, making complete separation difficult by adjusting the pH, which further reduces the purity of Fe and Cr recovery.

[0048] To solve the above problems, this invention provides a method for treating pickling wastewater, which can not only recover F, Fe, Cr, and Ni, but also has a high recovery rate and the recovered F, Fe, Cr, and Ni have high purity.

[0049] The method for treating pickling wastewater provided by this invention includes the following steps:

[0050] Step 1: Use a de-complexing agent to treat the pickling wastewater to obtain a de-complexing solution;

[0051] Step 2: Perform nanofiltration on the complexation solution to obtain permeate and concentrate;

[0052] Step 3: Mix the produced water and the defluorinating agent to obtain a fluoride-containing product;

[0053] Step 4: Mix the concentrated water and the reducing agent to obtain the reducing solution;

[0054] Step 5: Use ion exchange resin to adsorb chromium and nickel in the reducing solution to obtain ion exchange resin and effluent containing chromium and nickel;

[0055] Step 6: Desorb the ion exchange resin containing chromium and nickel to obtain a resin regeneration solution containing chromium and nickel;

[0056] Step 7: Adjust the pH of the chromium- and nickel-containing resin regeneration solution to 4-6 to obtain the chromium-containing product and the first supernatant;

[0057] Step 8: Adjust the pH of the first supernatant to 9-10 to obtain the nickel-containing product and the second supernatant;

[0058] Step 9: Adjust the pH of the effluent to 9-10 to obtain the iron-containing product and the third supernatant.

[0059] Step 10: Mix the third supernatant with the defluorinating agent to obtain the fluorinated product and the fourth supernatant.

[0060] Specifically, in step 1, a complex-dissolving agent is used to treat the pickling wastewater to dissociate the complexes of F with Fe, Cr, and Ni into free F, thereby obtaining a complex-dissolving solution.

[0061] The above-mentioned decomposition treatment can be carried out under stirring conditions to improve the homogeneity of the reaction system. The stirring speed can be 300-500 rpm.

[0062] In step 2, the main components of the anti-complex solution are HF and F. - NO3 - The complexes of Fe, Cr, Ni, and the complexing agent were subjected to nanofiltration. The permeate obtained through the nanofiltration membrane was the product water, and the concentrate that did not permeate through the nanofiltration membrane and was retained was the concentrated water. Most of the HF and F were retained. - NO3 - In the product water, the complexes of Fe, Cr, Ni and the decomplexing agent remain in the concentrate water.

[0063] In step 3, mixing the product water and the defluorinating agent can yield a fluoride precipitate, which can be dehydrated and dried to obtain a fluoride-containing product.

[0064] In the above steps, lime or sodium hydroxide can be added when mixing the permeate water and the defluorinating agent to adjust the pH to 6-8. This provides a suitable chemical environment for the reaction between the defluorinating agent and fluoride ions, promoting the full combination of fluoride ions and the effective components (such as calcium salts) in the defluorinating agent to form stable fluoride precipitates. If the pH value is too low, it may inhibit the ionization or dissolution of the defluorinating agent, reducing its reactivity with fluoride ions; if the pH value is too high, it may cause the generated fluoride precipitate to dissolve or cause side reactions in the defluorinating agent, thus affecting the defluorination effect. In addition, the main components of lime are calcium oxide or calcium hydroxide. On the one hand, it can effectively adjust the pH value by generating hydroxide ions through its reaction with water; on the other hand, the calcium ions it contains can also react directly with fluoride ions to form insoluble calcium fluoride precipitates, further enhancing the defluorination effect and forming a synergistic effect with the defluorinating agent.

[0065] In the above steps, the process of mixing the permeate water and the defluorinating agent for defluorination can employ either single-stage or two-stage coagulation and sedimentation, and this invention is not limited thereto. For example, when the fluoride ion concentration in the permeate water is low, single-stage coagulation and sedimentation can be used. The permeate water is fed into the single-stage coagulation and sedimentation tank along with the defluorinating agent. The defluorinating agent reacts with the fluoride ions to form insoluble fluoride flocs or precipitates. Under stirring, these flocs and precipitates aggregate to form larger particles, achieving rapid solid-liquid separation through sedimentation, thereby recovering fluoride resources. When the fluoride ion concentration in the permeate water is high, two-stage coagulation and sedimentation can be used. If unreacted fluoride ions and small fluoride particles still exist in the system after the single-stage coagulation and sedimentation, a second-stage coagulation and sedimentation tank can be added, and the defluorinating agent is added again to allow the remaining fluoride ions to fully react and form precipitates, thereby significantly improving the fluoride recovery rate.

[0066] In step 4, mixing the concentrated water and the reducing agent can promote Fe 3+ Reduced to Fe 2+ The resulting reducing solution is used for subsequent use of ion exchange resin to preferentially adsorb Cr. 3+ Ni 2+ Provide prerequisites.

[0067] The reduction reaction described above can be carried out under stirring conditions to improve the homogeneity of the reaction system. The stirring speed can be 300-500 rpm.

[0068] The reduction reaction time can be controlled within 0.5-1.5 hours to ensure a complete decomposition reaction without wasting resources and costs due to excessive time.

[0069] After the reduction reaction is completed, alkaline substances such as sodium hydroxide or lime can be added to the reducing solution to adjust the pH to 3-5, so as to enhance the adsorption effect of the subsequent ion exchange resin on Cr and Ni and avoid the resin adsorption capacity from decreasing due to too low pH.

[0070] In step 5, because the ion exchange resins have different selective adsorption orders for different ions (Fe... 3+ >Hg 2+ >Cu 2+ >Pb 2+ >Ni 2+ >Cr 3+ >Zn 2+ >Cd 2+ >Co 2+ >Fe 2+ >Mn 2+ >Al 3+ >>>Ca 2+ >Mg 2+ >Sr 2+ >Ba 2+ >>Li + Na+ Therefore, compared to Fe 2+ Ion exchange resins will preferentially adsorb Cr 3+ and Ni 2+ By using ion exchange resins to adsorb chromium and nickel from a reducing solution, ion exchange resins containing chromium and nickel and effluent containing iron can be obtained.

[0071] In step 6, after the ion exchange resin containing chromium and nickel is saturated, the ion exchange resin containing chromium and nickel can be desorbed to obtain a resin regeneration solution containing chromium and nickel.

[0072] This invention does not limit the specific method of desorption treatment; conventional techniques in the art can be used. For example, acid regeneration can be used for desorption treatment, utilizing H+ in hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid with a concentration of 3-10% (w / v). + With Cr already adsorbed on the ion exchange resin 3+ Ni 2+ A competitive exchange occurs, causing the ion exchange resin to revert to an adsorption-active H-type resin. This H-type resin can be used directly, or, depending on the specific circumstances, those skilled in the art can use sodium hydroxide to convert the H-type resin into a Na-type resin for use.

[0073] In one embodiment of the present invention, 10% (w / v) sulfuric acid is used for desorption treatment, and the desorption flow rate is controlled at 2-4 m / h. Each liter of adsorption saturated ion exchange resin is equivalent to consuming 60-120 g of 100% (w / v) sulfuric acid. The total content of Cr2(SO4)3 and NiSO4 in the obtained chromium and nickel-containing resin regeneration solution is about 3.5-8%.

[0074] In step 7, adjusting the pH of the chromium- and nickel-containing resin regeneration solution to 4-6 yields a chromium-containing product and a first supernatant.

[0075] This invention does not limit the type of reagent used to adjust pH. For example, sodium hydroxide can be used to adjust pH. In this case, the chromium-containing product obtained is Cr(OH)3 precipitate. After solid-liquid separation, the chromium-containing product and the first supernatant can be obtained.

[0076] In step 8, the pH of the first supernatant is adjusted to 9-10 to obtain the nickel-containing product and the second supernatant.

[0077] This invention does not limit the type of reagent used to adjust pH. For example, sodium hydroxide can be used to adjust pH. In this case, the nickel-containing product obtained is Ni(OH)2 precipitate. After solid-liquid separation, the nickel-containing product and the second supernatant can be obtained.

[0078] If hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid is used for acid regeneration in step 6, and sodium hydroxide is used to adjust the pH in steps 7 and 8, then the main component of the second supernatant is NaCl or Na2SO4, which can be sold as a by-product after evaporation and crystallization.

[0079] In actual production, steps 7 and 8 can be achieved through a two-stage chemical reaction sedimentation tank. That is, after the resin regeneration liquid containing chromium and nickel is put into the first-stage chemical reaction sedimentation tank, the pH is adjusted to 4-6 with alkaline substances such as sodium hydroxide, so that Cr precipitates out in the form of Cr(OH)3. The first supernatant is then put into the second-stage chemical reaction sedimentation tank, where the pH is adjusted to 9-10 with alkaline substances such as sodium hydroxide, so that Ni precipitates out in the form of Ni(OH)2.

[0080] In step 9, Fe, Cr, and Ni have been removed from the effluent containing iron in step 5, and the main component is Fe. 2+ By resolving the complex of the complexing agent and adjusting its pH to 9-10, an iron-containing product and a third supernatant can be obtained.

[0081] This invention does not limit the type of reagent used to adjust pH. For example, sodium hydroxide can be used to adjust pH. In this case, the iron-containing product obtained is Fe(OH)2 precipitate and a small amount of Fe(OH)3 precipitate. After solid-liquid separation, the iron-containing product and the third supernatant can be obtained.

[0082] In step 10, the third supernatant from step 9 is mixed with the defluorinating agent to obtain a fluorine-containing product and a fourth supernatant.

[0083] In the above steps, a small amount of free F ions still exist in the third supernatant. Therefore, adding a defluorinating agent and mixing can maximize the recovery of fluorine.

[0084] When mixing the third supernatant with the defluorinating agent, hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid can be added to adjust the pH to 6-8, thereby providing a suitable chemical environment for the reaction between the defluorinating agent and fluoride ions, promoting the full combination of fluoride ions and the effective components (such as calcium salts) in the defluorinating agent to form stable fluoride precipitates.

[0085] Furthermore, the defluorinating agent can be calcium chloride.

[0086] Furthermore, the concentration of calcium chloride can be 20-40% (w / v).

[0087] In short, this invention first uses a decomplexing agent to dissociate the complexes of F with Fe, Cr, and Ni into free F. Then, nanofiltration is used to separate the free F from the metal ions (Fe, Cr, Ni). A defluorinating agent is added to the separated F-rich solution (i.e., the product water) to recover F, thus solving the problem of difficult recovery of complexed F in existing technologies. Simultaneously, this invention adds a reducing agent to the separated Fe, Cr, and Ni-rich solution (i.e., the concentrated water) to promote the dissociation of Fe... 3+ Reduced to Fe 2+ Then, ion exchange resin is used for adsorption, and ion exchange resin is effective against Fe. 2+ Its adsorption capacity is weaker than that of Cr. 3+ Ni 2+ Therefore, it will preferentially adsorb Cr. 3+ and Ni 2+ For Cr 3+ and Ni 2+ The ion exchange resin is used for desorption treatment, and then the pH is adjusted in stages to achieve fractional recovery of Cr and Ni. At this point, the recovery rate and purity of Cr and Ni are significantly improved. Furthermore, by adjusting the pH of the effluent after adsorption by the ion exchange resin, Fe can also be recovered, thus solving the Fe problem. 3+ and Cr 3+ The problem of separation due to near-close pH levels during precipitation is addressed. Finally, adding a defluorinating agent to the supernatant after Fe recovery allows for secondary recovery of remaining fluorine, maximizing fluorine recovery. Through the above treatment method, this invention effectively improves the recovery rate of fluorine, iron, chromium, and nickel from pickling wastewater, and significantly enhances the purity of the recovered fluorine, iron, chromium, and nickel products. Furthermore, this invention is simple and convenient to operate, using inexpensive and readily available raw materials. It not only directly generates product revenue, especially from high-purity recovered products, but also significantly reduces the cost of pickling wastewater treatment. In addition, this invention provides new practical ideas for blocking the diffusion of fluorine, chromium, and nickel, protecting water and soil ecology and human health, reducing hazardous waste generation, and facilitating wastewater reuse or near-zero discharge. It also lays the foundation for promoting resource recycling, recovering industrial resources, and achieving a green transformation.

[0088] It is understood that the processing method of the present invention does not limit the order of steps 3 and 4. Step 3 can be performed first and then step 4, or step 4 can be performed first and then step 3, or steps 3 and 4 can be performed simultaneously.

[0089] In the processing method of the present invention, the order of steps 6 and 9 is not limited. Step 6 can be performed first and then step 9, or step 9 can be performed first and then step 6, or steps 6 and 9 can be performed simultaneously.

[0090] For example, after step 1 is completed, step 2 is performed. After step 2 is completed, steps 3 and 4 can be performed simultaneously or separately. After step 4 is completed, step 5 is performed. After step 5 is completed, steps 6 and 9 can be performed simultaneously or separately. After step 6 is completed, step 7 is performed, followed by step 8. After step 9 is completed, step 10 is performed.

[0091] Based on the above research, this invention also found that there are two main types of commonly used decomposition treatments. One type involves adding a strong acid (such as hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid) as a decomposition agent to promote the formation of more stable HF from the F in Fe-F, Cr-F, and Ni-F complexes, thereby releasing Fe ions, Cr ions, and Ni ions. The other type involves selecting a weak acid (such as citric acid or oxalic acid) with a stronger complexing ability for Fe, Cr, and Ni than F, as a decomposition agent to form complexes of Fe, Cr, Ni, and the weak acid, thereby releasing F ions.

[0092] Based on long-term research and experiments, this invention has found that when strong acids are used as decomplexing agents, subsequent nanofiltration treatment is ineffective in separating HF from hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid, requiring additional processes for separation and resulting in a long process flow. Therefore, in step 1, the decomplexing agent may include at least one of citric acid and oxalic acid. Using the aforementioned weak acid as a decomplexing agent can promote the formation of complexes between metal ions and the weak acid, releasing F ions from the complexes, thus achieving a high recovery rate of F with simple and convenient operation.

[0093] In a preferred embodiment, when the complexing agent is citric acid, the amount of the complexing agent added is 1-1.5 times the molar amount of the metal element in the pickling wastewater; the molar amount of the metal element is the sum of the molar amounts of iron, chromium, and 2 / 3 of the molar amounts of nickel.

[0094] In pickling wastewater, iron is mainly in the form of Fe. 3+ Chromium exists primarily as Cr. 3+ Nickel exists primarily in the form of Ni. 2+ It exists in a certain form, and citric acid is a tribasic acid, so 1 mol of Fe... 3+ Reacts with 1 mol of citric acid, 1 mol of Cr 3+ Reacts with 1 mol of citric acid, 1 mol of Ni 2+ It reacts with 2 / 3 mol of citric acid. Therefore, when citric acid is the uncoating agent, the amount of uncoating agent added is 1-1.5 times the sum of the molar amounts of iron, chromium, and 2 / 3 of nickel.

[0095] Similarly, oxalic acid is a dicarboxylic acid, so 1 mol of Fe... 3+ Reacts with 3 / 2 mol of oxalic acid, 1 mol of Cr 3+ Reacts with 3 / 2 mol of oxalic acid, 1 mol of Ni2+ It reacts with 1 mol of oxalic acid. Therefore, when the complexing agent is oxalic acid, the amount of complexing agent added is 1 to 1.5 times the sum of 3 / 2 the molar amount of iron, 3 / 2 the molar amount of chromium, and the molar amount of nickel.

[0096] In the above technical solution, the conditions for the decomposition treatment include: a time of 0.5-1 h and a pH value of 2.5-3.5. Adjusting the time and pH value of the decomposition treatment is beneficial for precisely controlling the decomposition reaction process and guiding it towards the target direction.

[0097] Specifically, the decomplexing treatment can be achieved by adding alkaline substances such as sodium hydroxide or lime to adjust the pH of the decomplexing treatment system to 2.5-3.5, so as to enhance the decomplexing effect of the decomplexing agent on the complexes of F and Fe, Cr, and Ni.

[0098] In the above technical solution, the nanofiltration treatment conditions include: a temperature of 20-40℃, a pressure of 2-6 MPa, a molecular weight cutoff of 150-600 Da, and a recovery rate of 40-75%, thereby accurately separating fluoride ions and metal-uncomplexing agent complexes. Testing showed that within the above range, Fe in the concentrated water... 3+ Cr 3+ Ni 2+ The retention rate is ≥90%.

[0099] Furthermore, the nanofiltration membrane element used in the above nanofiltration process can be an acid-resistant special membrane element, which is more suitable for the above nanofiltration conditions.

[0100] In the above technical solution, the defluorinating agent includes at least one of calcium chloride and lime.

[0101] Lime, as a defluorinating agent, can both regulate pH and provide calcium. 2+ Used for defluorination; calcium chloride, as a defluorinating agent, is mainly used to provide Ca. 2+ .

[0102] In a preferred embodiment, lime can be added first to adjust the pH value. When the lime provides Ca... 2+ Insufficient and pickling wastewater F - Complete reaction (i.e., Ca) 2+ / F - When the molar ratio is <0.5, add calcium chloride to supplement the Ca. 2+ , so that the total Ca added 2+ Excess (approximately 200-600 mg / L). In the above technical solution, the reducing agent includes at least one of iron powder, sodium thiosulfate, hydrogen sulfide, sulfides, sulfites, and bisulfites, which can effectively promote Fe... 3+ Reduced to Fe 2+ .

[0103] Furthermore, the concentration of calcium chloride can be 20-40% (w / v).

[0104] In the above technical solution, the functional groups of the ion exchange resin include at least one of polyamino and iminodiacetic acid groups. For example, it can be Purolite MTS9300 or 9850.

[0105] Anti-complexing agents such as citric acid can convert iron-fluorine complexes and chromium-fluorine complexes into iron-citric acid complexes and chromium-citric acid complexes, releasing free fluorine. Therefore, when the functional groups of ion exchange resin are polyamino or iminodiacetic acid groups, the complexing ability of polyamino or iminodiacetic acid groups is stronger than that of citric acid, and they can replace and adsorb Cr and Ni complexed by citric acid.

[0106] In the above technical solution, the adsorption conditions (i.e. the operating conditions of ion exchange resin adsorption) include: flow rate of 5-15 m / h and pH of 3.5-5.

[0107] During the adsorption process of ion exchange resins, controlling the flow rate and pH within the aforementioned ranges ensures adsorption efficiency, selectivity, and stability. If the flow rate is too low, although it prolongs the contact time between the reducing solution and the ion exchange resin, allowing the target ions to fully bind with the resin's functional groups, it reduces the throughput per unit time, leading to low process efficiency and potentially causing unnecessary side reactions due to excessive contact. If the flow rate is too high, the residence time of the reducing solution in the ion exchange resin is too short, and the target ions are discharged before they have sufficient time to exchange with the resin, significantly reducing the adsorption rate and wasting resources. Within the pH range of 3.5-5, Cr... 3+ Ni 2+ It mainly exists in the form of free ions or stable simple ions, with a relatively thin hydrated ion layer, making it easier to undergo exchange reactions with resin functional groups. At the same time, the weakly acidic environment can inhibit Fe 2+ Adsorption of interfering ions reduces their influence on Cr. 3+ Ni 2+ Competition for adsorption sites enhances the resin's selectivity for target ions. Furthermore, this pH range prevents the ion exchange resin from experiencing a decrease in adsorption capacity due to excessive acidity or from hydrolyzing target ions to form hydroxide precipitates due to neutrality, ensuring that the ion exchange resin remains in an active state of highly efficient adsorption.

[0108] In addition, in order to further improve the resource utilization and reduce the cost of the processing method of the present invention, the above processing method further includes: filtering the fourth supernatant and adjusting the pH to 1-3 to obtain a complex-dissolving agent.

[0109] The fourth supernatant mainly consists of a salt solution of the complex-resolving agent. For example, if the complex-resolving agent is oxalic acid, the main component of the third supernatant is oxalate. Filtering the third supernatant sequentially concentrates the salt solution of the complex-resolving agent. Then, adjusting the pH to 1-3 under acidic conditions converts it into the complex-resolving agent. This complex-resolving agent can then be returned to step 1 for further use.

[0110] Further, in an optional embodiment, the filtration process consists of sequential ultrafiltration and nanofiltration; the ultrafiltration conditions include a pH of 6-9, a pressure of 0.1-0.4 MPa, a temperature of 20-40°C, and a recovery rate of 85-95%; the nanofiltration conditions include a pH of 6-9, a pressure of 2-8 MPa, a temperature of 20-40°C, and a recovery rate of 60-80%.

[0111] The ultrafiltration membrane used in ultrafiltration treatment and the nanofiltration membrane used in nanofiltration treatment can be conventional commercially available membrane elements. The ultrafiltration permeate can be reused as production water, while the nanofiltration permeate is mixed with other permeate and discharged.

[0112] In one optional embodiment, the filtration process consists of sequential sand filtration and nanofiltration; the nanofiltration conditions include a pH of 6-9, a pressure of 2-8 MPa, a temperature of 20-40°C, and a recovery rate of 60-80%.

[0113] The nanofiltration membrane used in nanofiltration treatment can be a conventional commercially available membrane element. The sand filtration permeate can be reused as production water, while the nanofiltration permeate is mixed with other permeate and discharged.

[0114] In one optional embodiment, the filtration process is a sequential process of precision filtration and nanofiltration; the nanofiltration conditions include a pH of 6-9, a pressure of 2-8 MPa, a temperature of 20-40°C, and a recovery rate of 60-80%.

[0115] Precision filtration can use precision filters (or security filters), while nanofiltration can use conventional commercially available membrane elements. Precision filtration permeate can be reused as production water, while nanofiltration permeate is mixed with other permeate and discharged.

[0116] The present invention also provides a treatment system for pickling wastewater, comprising a decomposition module, a nanofiltration module, a reduction module, an adsorption module, and a desorption module connected in sequence; the nanofiltration module is also connected to a first fluorine recovery module; the desorption module is also connected to a chromium recovery module and a nickel recovery module in sequence; the adsorption module is also connected to an iron recovery module and a second fluorine recovery module in sequence.

[0117] For example, the processing system is visible Figure 1The system comprises the following modules: a decomplexing module for performing decomplexing treatment (i.e., step 1 of the method); a nanofiltration module for performing nanofiltration treatment (i.e., step 2 of the method); a reduction module for providing a reducing agent for reduction treatment (i.e., step 4 of the method); an adsorption module for providing ion exchange resin for adsorption treatment of chromium and nickel (i.e., step 5 of the method); a desorption module for desorbing chromium and nickel-containing ion exchange resin (i.e., step 6 of the method); a first fluorine recovery module and a second fluorine recovery module for providing a defluorinating agent for fluorine recovery (i.e., step 3 or step 10 of the method); a chromium recovery module for adjusting pH for chromium recovery (i.e., step 7 of the method); a nickel recovery module for adjusting pH for nickel recovery (i.e., step 8 of the method); and an iron recovery module for adjusting pH for iron recovery (i.e., step 9 of the method).

[0118] Finally, the present invention provides a computer-readable storage medium having a computer program stored thereon, wherein the computer program, when executed by a processor, implements the above-described processing method.

Since this mixed sludge could only be treated as hazardous waste, the recovery rates of F, Cr, Ni, and Fe were 0%; the removal rates of F, Cr, Ni, and Fe, calculated using the same method as above, were all 99.90%.

[0214] 6. The test results of Comparative Example 2 are as follows:

[0215] The mass of the mixed sludge containing CaF2, Fe(OH)3, Cr(OH)3 and Ni(OH)2 was 30.40 g, of which the mass fraction of CaF2 was 50.12%, the mass fraction of Fe(OH)3 was 33.09%, the mass fraction of Cr(OH)3 was 11.51%, and the mass fraction of Ni(OH)2 was 5.28%.

[0222] Table 1

[0223]

[0224] As shown in Table 1, Example 1 showed the highest recovery rates of F, Cr, Ni, and Fe, indicating that the pickling wastewater treatment method provided by this invention can effectively recover F, Cr, Ni, and Fe from pickling wastewater. This not only provides a practical means to solve environmental pollution problems, but also provides an important way to achieve resource recycling, reduce economic costs, and promote sustainable development.

[0225] Compared to Example 1, Example 2 replaced the citric acid (weak acid) complexing agent with sulfuric acid (strong acid) complexing agent. Since the NF membrane has different rejection rates for sulfuric acid and hydrofluoric acid, the mass concentration of free F in the NF permeate and NF concentrate differs from that in Example 1, resulting in a decrease in the purity of CaF2 and consequently a decrease in F recovery rate. This indicates that using a weak acid (e.g., citric acid) as a complexing agent helps improve F recovery rate. Furthermore, the operation of Example 2 requires coordinated heating and cooling, which can easily lead to increased overall energy consumption.

[0226] Compared with Example 1, Example 3 changed the pressure and recovery rate of nanofiltration, resulting in incomplete separation of free F, which had a more significant impact on the F recovery rate. This shows that the regulation of nanofiltration conditions helps to improve the F recovery rate.

[0227] Compared to Example 1, Example 4 used calcium chloride and sodium hydroxide instead of lime. Although the impact on the recovery rates of F, Cr, Ni and Fe was not significant, the reagent cost increased by about 4 times.

[0228] Compared to Example 1, the traditional pickling wastewater treatment method represented by Comparative Example 1 cannot recover F, Cr, Ni, and Fe, resulting in a significant waste of resources. Compared to Example 1, the pickling wastewater treatment method represented by Comparative Example 2 is also unable to effectively recover F, Cr, and Ni, still resulting in substantial resource waste.

[0229] Table 2

[0230]

[0231] As shown in Table 2, the CaF2, Cr(OH)3, Ni(OH)2, and Fe(OH)2 products obtained in Examples 1, 3, and 4 have similar qualities, but the CaF2 product obtained in Example 2 has lower quality, indicating that the type of uncomplexing agent has a significant impact on the purity of the recovered fluorine product. The mixed sludge obtained in Comparative Example 1 has low quality and can only be treated as hazardous waste, making it difficult to utilize. The mixed sludge containing CaF2, Fe(OH)3, Cr(OH)3, and Ni(OH)2 obtained in Comparative Example 2 has low quality and is difficult to utilize; the sludge containing Cr(OH)3 and Ni(OH)2 cannot be used directly and still requires subsequent steps to distinguish chromium and nickel; the obtained CaF2 product has high purity, but the yield is low, which also results in a large waste of resources.

[0232] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and not to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
