Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of waste circuit board resource utilization and flue gas treatment technology, and in particular to a method and system for recovering bromine from the smelting flue gas of waste circuit boards containing bromine-based flame retardants. Background Technology
[0002] According to statistics, around 2000, more than 90% of rigid circuit boards used FR-4 substrates containing bromine (mainly tetrabromobisphenol A). Currently, halogen-free and bromine-based flame retardant circuit boards are in a stable period of "binary structure" distribution. A large number of low- and mid-range electronic products, industrial control equipment, home appliances, and some automotive parts commonly use bromine-based FR-4 circuit boards. The industry estimates that its market share is between 50% and 65%. At present, most of the waste circuit boards in China are recycled using pyrometallurgical methods to recover valuable metal elements, while bromine elements enter the flue gas for treatment without being recycled and reused. Moreover, most of the bromine elements in my country are extracted from seawater with extremely low content, resulting in a huge waste of bromine resources.
[0003] Currently, existing methods for bromine recovery from waste circuit board smelting gas have many shortcomings, such as low bromine recovery rate, low purity of finished product, inability to meet industrial requirements, high energy consumption in some methods, failure to effectively utilize the waste heat of smelting gas, and the generation of secondary pollutants during the treatment process, resulting in poor environmental performance. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a high-efficiency, low-consumption, and environmentally friendly bromine-based flame retardant waste circuit board smelting gas bromine recovery technology. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide a method and system for recovering bromine from the smelting flue gas of bromine-based flame retardants used in waste circuit boards. This method aims to solve the technical problems of low bromine recovery rate, low purity of finished products, inability to meet industrial use requirements, high energy consumption in some methods, ineffective utilization of waste heat from smelting flue gas, easy generation of secondary pollutants during treatment, and poor environmental performance.
[0005] A method and system for recovering bromine from smelting flue gas of waste circuit boards containing brominated flame retardants, comprising the following steps:
[0006] S1: Oxygen-enriched molten pool smelting: Waste circuit boards with bromine flame retardants and a particle size ≤100mm are added to the molten pool smelting furnace. High-pressure oxygen-enriched air and natural gas are blown into the melt for stirring and smelting. The furnace temperature is controlled at 1200~1250℃, and the flue gas residence time in the flue gas zone of the furnace is >2 seconds. A waste heat boiler is installed in the furnace to cool down the high-temperature flue gas and generate saturated steam. The treated high-temperature flue gas is discharged from the top of the furnace.
[0007] S2: Flue gas cooling: The high-temperature flue gas discharged in step 1 is cooled to 150°C through a two-stage cooling device, with the first stage cooling to 550°C and the second stage rapidly cooling to 150°C.
[0008] S3: Baghouse dust collection and bromide ion leaching: The cooled flue gas is passed into a baghouse dust collector to collect bromine-containing dust. The dust is added to a debrominating agent solution with a pH of 8-10 and reacted at 50-70℃ for 1-2 hours to allow 95% of the bromine to migrate to the leaching solution in the form of bromide ions.
[0009] S4: Two-stage gradient absorption: The flue gas after passing through the bag filter dust collector is passed into the first-stage acidic absorption tower with an inlet temperature ≤160℃ and an outlet temperature ≥80℃. The pH of the absorbent is controlled at 2-3. Then it enters the second-stage alkaline absorption tower with an outlet temperature ≥50℃ and the pH of the absorbent is controlled at 10-12.
[0010] S5: Bromine salt solution pretreatment: Mix the leachate from step 3 with the absorbent from step 4, add dilute hydrochloric acid or dilute sulfuric acid to adjust the pH to 2.5-3.5, and filter to remove suspended solids;
[0011] S6: Preheating oxidation: Preheat the pretreated bromide salt solution to ≥60℃, add 5-10% excess oxidant, and react at 60-90℃ for 30-60 minutes to oxidize 90-95% of the bromide ions to elemental bromide.
[0012] S7: Distillation and condensation separation: The oxidized solution is added to a falling film molecular distillation column, and the distillation temperature is controlled at 65-75℃. The solution is heated by the saturated vapor generated in step S1 to vaporize the free bromine. The mixed vapor generated by vaporization is passed into a condenser to condense into liquid.
[0013] S8: Product separation and reflux: The condensed liquid is introduced into a centrifugal phase separator to separate and obtain bromine with a purity of ≥99.5%. After filtering to remove trace organic matter, the bromine concentration is detected. If the concentration is >10%, it is refluxed to the distillation tower. If the concentration is low, it is returned to the secondary absorption tower of step S4 as makeup water.
[0014] Furthermore: the specific steps of oxygen-enriched molten pool smelting in step S1 are as follows:
[0015] S1.1: The waste circuit boards containing bromine-based flame retardants are crushed and screened to control the particle size of the material to ≤100mm, remove large metal impurities, and ensure uniform feeding.
[0016] S1.2: The pretreated waste circuit boards are continuously fed into the molten pool furnace through the feed inlet. The oxygen-enriched air supply device and the natural gas supply device are started to blow high-pressure oxygen-enriched air with a pressure of 0.3-0.5MPa and an oxygen concentration of 80-90vol% into the molten material in the furnace. At the same time, natural gas is blown in. The mass ratio of natural gas to waste circuit board feed is controlled at 0.08-0.12:1. Through the stirring action of oxygen-enriched air and natural gas, the waste circuit boards and the molten material are fully mixed and reacted.
[0017] S1.3: The furnace temperature is monitored in real time by an in-furnace temperature sensor, and the amount of oxygen-enriched air and natural gas injected is adjusted to stabilize the furnace temperature at 1200-1250℃; at the same time, the flue gas residence time detection device ensures that the residence time of the flue gas in the flue gas zone of the furnace is >2 seconds, so that the bromine flame retardant in the waste circuit board is fully decomposed and the bromine element enters the flue gas.
[0018] S1.4: High-temperature flue gas is discharged from the flue gas outlet at the top of the molten pool furnace and enters the waste heat boiler. The waste heat boiler uses the heat of the high-temperature flue gas for heat exchange, cooling the flue gas while generating saturated steam with a pressure of 0.8-1.2MPa. The saturated steam is stored in a steam storage tank and used for heating in subsequent distillation steps. The high-temperature flue gas treated by the waste heat boiler enters the next step.
[0019] Furthermore: the specific steps for flue gas cooling in step S2 are as follows:
[0020] S2.1: First-stage cooling: The high-temperature flue gas discharged from the waste heat boiler, with a temperature of about 800-900℃, is passed into the first-stage tubular heat exchanger. Heat exchange is carried out through the circulating water in the heat exchanger. The cooling rate is controlled at 80-100℃ / min to reduce the flue gas temperature to 550℃. The cooling medium after heat exchange enters the cooling system for further cooling and is then recycled.
[0021] S2.2: Secondary Cooling: The flue gas cooled to 550°C after the primary cooling is introduced into the secondary quench tower. Cooling water is sprayed through atomizing nozzles in the quench tower to achieve rapid cooling of the flue gas. The cooling rate is controlled at 6-8°C / s to quickly reduce the flue gas temperature to 150°C, thus preventing the bromine in the flue gas from forming secondary pollutants. The rapidly cooled flue gas carries a small amount of water mist and enters the next step.
[0022] Furthermore: the specific steps of bag dust collection and bromide ion leaching in step S3 are as follows:
[0023] S3.1: The flue gas after secondary cooling is introduced into the bag filter at 150°C. The filtration velocity of the bag filter is controlled at 0.8-1.2 m / min and the dust collection efficiency is ≥99%. The dust in the flue gas is collected through the bag filter. The bromine content in the dust is 30-50%. The flue gas after dust collection enters the next step. The dust collected by the bag filter is periodically discharged into the leaching tank.
[0024] S3.2: Prepare a debrominating agent solution with a pH of 8-10. The debrominating agent is a sodium carbonate-sodium hydroxide mixed solution, wherein the sodium carbonate concentration is 5-8 g / L and the sodium hydroxide concentration is 3-5 g / L. After preparation, the solution is introduced into the leaching tank.
[0025] S3.3: Add the flue dust collected by the bag filter to the leaching tank containing the debromination agent solution, start the stirring device, control the stirring rate to 150-200 r / min, and at the same time stabilize the temperature in the leaching tank at 50-70℃ using the temperature control device. React for 1-2 hours to allow the bromine element in the flue dust to react fully, with more than 95% of the bromine migrating to the leachate in the form of bromide ions. After the reaction is completed, the leachate is temporarily stored in the leachate storage tank for subsequent pretreatment steps.
[0026] Furthermore: the specific steps of the two-level gradient absorption in step S4 are as follows:
[0027] S4.1: Primary acidic absorption: The flue gas after bag dust collection, containing a small amount of uncollected bromine vapor, is passed into the primary acidic absorption tower. The inlet temperature of the primary absorption tower is controlled to be ≤160℃ and the outlet temperature is ≥80℃. Dilute hydrochloric acid is added to the absorption tower through a pH adjustment device to control the pH of the absorbent at 2-3. The bromine vapor in the flue gas reacts with the acidic absorbent to generate bromide, which enters the absorbent. The absorbent is recycled. When the bromide ion concentration in the absorbent reaches 10-15g / L, it is discharged into the mixing tank.
[0028] S4.2: Secondary alkaline absorption. The flue gas after primary acidic absorption is passed into the secondary alkaline absorption tower. The outlet temperature of the secondary absorption tower is controlled at ≥50℃. Sodium hydroxide solution is added into the absorption tower through a pH adjustment device to control the pH of the absorbent at 10-12, further absorbing the residual bromine vapor and acidic gases in the flue gas to ensure that the flue gas meets the emission standards. The secondary absorbent is recycled. When the bromide ion concentration in the absorbent reaches 8-12 g / L, it is discharged into the mixing tank.
[0029] Furthermore: the specific steps of the bromine salt solution pretreatment in step S5 are as follows:
[0030] S5.1: Pass the leachate temporarily stored in step S3 and the primary and secondary absorbent solutions discharged in step S4 into the mixing tank, start the stirring device, and make the three solutions fully and evenly mixed.
[0031] S5.2: Add dilute hydrochloric acid or dilute sulfuric acid to the mixing tank through the pH adjustment device, and adjust the pH value of the mixed solution to 2.5-3.5 while stirring, so that the impurity ions in the solution form precipitates;
[0032] S5.3: The pH-adjusted mixed solution is passed into a filter to remove suspended solids and precipitated impurities. The filtered clear bromide solution is then sent to a pretreatment storage tank for subsequent preheating oxidation steps. The filter residue is collected and disposed of in a harmless manner.
[0033] Furthermore: the specific steps of preheating oxidation in step S6 are as follows:
[0034] S6.1: The clarified bromide solution in the pretreatment tank is passed into the preheater to preheat the solution temperature to ≥60℃, and the preheated solution is then passed into the oxidation reaction tank.
[0035] S6.2: Add an oxidant to the oxidation reaction tank. The oxidant is a sodium hypochlorite solution or chlorine gas with an effective chlorine concentration of 10-15%. The amount of oxidant added is 105-110% of the theoretical reaction amount to ensure that the bromide ions are fully oxidized.
[0036] S6.3: Start the stirring device in the oxidation reaction tank and control the stirring rate to 150-200 r / min. At the same time, stabilize the reaction temperature at 60-90℃ using the temperature control device. React for 30-60 minutes to oxidize 90-95% of the bromide ions in the solution to elemental bromine. After the reaction is completed, a mixed solution containing elemental bromine is obtained.
[0037] Furthermore: the specific steps of distillation and condensation separation in step S7 are as follows:
[0038] S7.1: Pass the bromine-containing mixed solution after the oxidation reaction into a falling film molecular distillation column, check the sealing of the distillation column, start the vacuum system, and adjust the vacuum degree in the distillation column to 0.08-0.09 MPa;
[0039] S7.2: The saturated vapor generated in step S1 is introduced into the heating jacket of the falling film molecular distillation column at a pressure of 0.8-1.2 MPa. The heat of the saturated vapor is used to heat the solution, and the temperature inside the distillation column is controlled to be stable at 65-75℃. The free bromine in the solution vaporizes under this temperature and vacuum conditions to form bromine vapor. The distillation residence time is controlled to be 15-20 min to ensure that the bromine is fully vaporized.
[0040] S7.3: The bromine vapor produced by distillation is passed into the condenser, where the low-temperature brine condenses the bromine vapor into liquid. The condensation temperature of the condenser is controlled at 5-10℃ to ensure that the bromine vapor is fully condensed. The condensed liquid then enters the centrifugal phase separator.
[0041] Furthermore: the specific steps for product separation and reflux in step S8 are as follows:
[0042] S8.1: Centrifugal phase separation. The condensed liquid is introduced into the centrifugal phase separator. The centrifugal phase separator is started and the centrifugal speed is controlled at 3000-4000 r / min. The bromine in the condensed liquid is separated from the water by centrifugal force to obtain a finished bromine with a purity ≥99.5%. The finished bromine is stored in the finished product storage tank. The separated finished bromine is passed through a filter to remove trace organic impurities to ensure that the purity of the finished bromine meets the standard.
[0043] S8.2: The concentration of bromine in the filtered product is detected by a concentration detector. If the bromine concentration is >10%, it is refluxed back to the falling film molecular distillation tower through the reflux pipe for re-distillation and separation to improve the bromine recovery rate. If the bromine concentration is low (≤10%), it is returned to the secondary alkaline absorption tower in step S4 as makeup water through the reflux pipe to achieve the recycling of bromine.

[0053] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0054] 1. In the oxygen-enriched molten pool smelting process, by precisely controlling the furnace temperature of 1200-1250℃ and the flue gas residence time of >2 seconds, combined with 80-90 vol% high-concentration oxygen-enriched air, the bromine-based flame retardant can be completely decomposed, with a bromine release rate of ≥98%, laying the foundation for subsequent recovery. The combination of bag filter dust collection and two-stage gradient absorption process achieves full coverage capture of different forms of bromine in the flue gas. The bag filter dust collection intercepts 30-50% of the high-bromine content flue gas dust, the acidic absorption tower captures bromine vapor to generate bromides, and the alkaline absorption tower catches the residual bromine and acidic gases at the bottom, with a total bromine recovery rate of ≥90%.
[0055] 2. The falling film molecular distillation column achieves efficient separation of bromine from impurities under precise temperature control of 0.08-0.09 MPa vacuum and 65-75℃. Combined with high-speed centrifugation of 3000-4000 r / min by a centrifugal phase separator, the final product bromine purity is stable at ≥99.5%, meeting the industrial-grade bromine standards and can be directly applied in pharmaceutical, dye and other fields.
[0056] 3. The waste heat boiler recovers heat from the high-temperature flue gas at 1200-1250℃ to generate saturated steam at 0.8-1.2MPa. This steam precisely matches the heating requirements of the falling film molecular distillation column, eliminating the need for an additional steam boiler or fuel heating system. Compared with traditional bromine recovery processes, energy consumption is reduced by 35%-45%. The circulating water cooling medium of the tubular heat exchanger can be used in a closed loop, and the atomized cooling water of the quench tower can be partially recovered to the absorbent system, reducing water consumption by 20%-30% and further compressing operating costs.
[0057] 4. Two-stage gradient cooling process specifically addresses bromine pollution risks: The first-stage tubular heat exchanger provides gentle cooling at a rate of 80-100℃ / min, while the second-stage quench tower provides rapid cooling at a rate of 6-8℃ / s, quickly bypassing the temperature range where bromine easily generates dioxins, thus preventing the generation of highly toxic byproducts at the source. The baghouse dust collector maintains a filtration velocity of 0.8-1.2 m / min with a dust collection efficiency of ≥99%, effectively trapping over 99% of particulate matter in the flue gas, significantly reducing the risk of flue gas emissions. The tail gas treated by the two-stage absorption tower has a bromide concentration below the limit and can be directly discharged in compliance with standards.
[0058] 5. The system achieves closed-loop control of core parameters: The temperature sensor of the molten pool furnace is linked with the oxygen-enriched air and natural gas supply devices, which can automatically adjust the fuel and oxygen ratio to ensure that the furnace temperature is stable at 1200-1250℃. The pH and temperature detection devices of the primary acidic and secondary alkaline absorption towers are automatically linked with the dosing system and heat exchange system, and the pH fluctuation range of the absorption liquid is controlled within ±0.2 to avoid the decrease in absorption efficiency due to parameter drift. The finished product concentration detection and reflux mechanism are automated. The concentration detector monitors the bromine concentration in real time. When the concentration is >10%, it is automatically refluxed to the distillation tower for purification. When it is ≤10%, it is automatically returned to the secondary absorption tower for water replenishment. No manual judgment is required, which ensures product purity and avoids bromine waste. The product quality fluctuation range is ≤0.3%. Attached Figure Description

[0061] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0062] Please see the appendix Figure 1 The present invention provides an embodiment 1: a method for recovering bromine from the smelting flue gas of waste circuit boards containing brominated flame retardants, comprising the following specific implementation steps:
[0063] S1: Oxygen-enriched molten pool smelting: Waste circuit boards with bromine flame retardants and a particle size ≤100mm are added to the molten pool smelting furnace. High-pressure oxygen-enriched air and natural gas are blown into the melt for stirring and smelting. The furnace temperature is controlled at 1200~1250℃, and the flue gas residence time in the flue gas zone of the furnace is >2 seconds. A waste heat boiler is installed in the furnace to cool down the high-temperature flue gas and generate saturated steam. The treated high-temperature flue gas is discharged from the top of the furnace.
[0064] The specific steps of oxygen-enriched molten pool smelting in step S1 are as follows:
[0065] S1.1: The waste circuit boards containing bromine-based flame retardants are crushed and screened to control the particle size of the material to ≤100mm, remove large metal impurities, and ensure uniform feeding.
[0066] S1.2: The pretreated waste circuit boards are continuously fed into the molten pool furnace through the feed inlet. The oxygen-enriched air supply device and the natural gas supply device are started to blow high-pressure oxygen-enriched air with a pressure of 0.3-0.5MPa and an oxygen concentration of 80-90vol% into the molten material in the furnace. At the same time, natural gas is blown in. The mass ratio of natural gas to waste circuit board feed is controlled at 0.08-0.12:1. Through the stirring action of oxygen-enriched air and natural gas, the waste circuit boards and the molten material are fully mixed and reacted.
[0067] S1.3: The furnace temperature is monitored in real time by an in-furnace temperature sensor, and the amount of oxygen-enriched air and natural gas injected is adjusted to stabilize the furnace temperature at 1200-1250℃; at the same time, the flue gas residence time detection device ensures that the residence time of the flue gas in the flue gas zone of the furnace is >2 seconds, so that the bromine flame retardant in the waste circuit board is fully decomposed and the bromine element enters the flue gas.
[0068] S1.4: High-temperature flue gas is discharged from the flue gas outlet at the top of the molten pool furnace and enters the waste heat boiler. The waste heat boiler uses the heat of the high-temperature flue gas for heat exchange, cooling the flue gas while generating saturated steam with a pressure of 0.8-1.2MPa. The saturated steam is stored in a steam storage tank and used for heating in subsequent distillation steps. The high-temperature flue gas after being treated by the waste heat boiler enters the next step.
[0069] S2: Flue gas cooling: The high-temperature flue gas discharged in step 1 is cooled to 150°C through a two-stage cooling device, with the first stage cooling to 550°C and the second stage rapidly cooling to 150°C.
[0070] The specific steps for flue gas cooling in step S2 are as follows:
[0071] S2.1: First-stage cooling: The high-temperature flue gas discharged from the waste heat boiler, with a temperature of about 800-900℃, is passed into the first-stage tubular heat exchanger. Heat exchange is carried out through the circulating water in the heat exchanger. The cooling rate is controlled at 80-100℃ / min to reduce the flue gas temperature to 550℃. The cooling medium after heat exchange enters the cooling system for further cooling and is then recycled.
[0072] S2.2: Secondary cooling: The flue gas after primary cooling is introduced into the secondary quench tower at 550°C. Cooling water is sprayed through atomizing nozzles in the quench tower to achieve rapid cooling of the flue gas. The cooling rate is controlled at 6-8°C / s to quickly reduce the flue gas temperature to 150°C, so as to avoid the formation of secondary pollutants by bromine in the flue gas. The flue gas after rapid cooling carries a small amount of water mist and enters the next step.
[0073] S3: Baghouse dust collection and bromide ion leaching: The cooled flue gas is passed into a baghouse dust collector to collect bromine-containing dust.

[0074] The specific steps for baghouse dust collection and bromide ion leaching in step S3 are as follows:
[0075] S3.1: The flue gas after secondary cooling is introduced into the bag filter at 150°C. The filtration velocity of the bag filter is controlled at 0.8-1.2 m / min and the dust collection efficiency is ≥99%. The dust in the flue gas is collected through the bag filter. The bromine content in the dust is 30-50%. The flue gas after dust collection enters the next step. The dust collected by the bag filter is periodically discharged into the leaching tank.
[0076] S3.2: Prepare a debrominating agent solution with a pH of 8-10. The debrominating agent is a sodium carbonate-sodium hydroxide mixed solution, wherein the sodium carbonate concentration is 5-8 g / L and the sodium hydroxide concentration is 3-5 g / L. After preparation, the solution is introduced into the leaching tank.
[0077] S3.3: Add the flue dust collected by the bag filter to the leaching tank containing the debromination agent solution, start the stirring device, control the stirring rate to 150-200 r / min, and simultaneously stabilize the temperature in the leaching tank at 50-70℃ using the temperature control device. React for 1-2 hours to allow the bromine in the flue dust to react fully, with more than 95% of the bromine migrating into the leachate in the form of bromide ions. After the reaction is completed, the leachate is temporarily stored in the leachate storage tank for subsequent pretreatment steps.
[0078] S4: Two-stage gradient absorption: The flue gas after passing through the bag filter dust collector is passed into the first-stage acidic absorption tower with an inlet temperature ≤160℃ and an outlet temperature ≥80℃. The pH of the absorbent is controlled at 2-3. Then it enters the second-stage alkaline absorption tower with an outlet temperature ≥50℃ and the pH of the absorbent is controlled at 10-12.
[0079] The specific steps of the two-level gradient absorption in step S4 are as follows:
[0080] S4.1: Primary acidic absorption: The flue gas after bag dust collection, containing a small amount of uncollected bromine vapor, is passed into the primary acidic absorption tower. The inlet temperature of the primary absorption tower is controlled to be ≤160℃ and the outlet temperature is ≥80℃. Dilute hydrochloric acid is added to the absorption tower through a pH adjustment device to control the pH of the absorbent at 2-3. The bromine vapor in the flue gas reacts with the acidic absorbent to generate bromide, which enters the absorbent. The absorbent is recycled. When the bromide ion concentration in the absorbent reaches 10-15g / L, it is discharged into the mixing tank.
[0081] S4.2: Secondary alkaline absorption. The flue gas after primary acidic absorption is passed into the secondary alkaline absorption tower. The outlet temperature of the secondary absorption tower is controlled at ≥50℃. Sodium hydroxide solution is added into the absorption tower through a pH adjustment device to control the pH of the absorbent at 10-12, further absorbing the residual bromine vapor and acidic gases in the flue gas to ensure that the flue gas meets the emission standards. The secondary absorbent is recycled. When the bromide ion concentration in the absorbent reaches 8-12 g / L, it is discharged into the mixing tank.
[0082] S5: Bromine salt solution pretreatment: Mix the leachate from step 3 with the absorbent from step 4, add dilute hydrochloric acid or dilute sulfuric acid to adjust the pH to 2.5-3.5, and filter to remove suspended solids;

The centrifugal phase separator is started and the centrifugal speed is controlled at 3000-4000 r / min. The bromine in the condensed liquid is separated from the water by centrifugal force to obtain a finished bromine with a purity ≥99.5%. The finished bromine is stored in the finished product storage tank.
