Description

Technical Field

[0002] Currently, the development of the phosphorus chemical industry has placed higher demands on the effective utilization of phosphorus resources and environmental protection. In the phosphorus chemical production process, monoammonium phosphate, as an important industrial raw material, is widely used in agricultural fertilizers, new energy materials (such as lithium iron phosphate), and other fields. Traditional monoammonium phosphate production methods mainly rely on the sulfuric acid method, but this method has the following technical problems:

[0003] 1. The calcium ions in the acid solution are not completely removed

[0004] During the process of nitric acid decomposition of phosphate rock, the acid solution will contain a large amount of calcium ions. If these calcium ions cannot be effectively removed, the quality and performance of subsequent phosphoric acid products will be seriously affected.

[0005] 2. Difficulty in separating acid-insoluble matter

[0006] Phosphate rock often contains a variety of impurities, including acid-insoluble mineral particles. These acid-insoluble substances are difficult to effectively separate during the production process, causing wear and tear on production equipment and affecting the purity of the final product.

[0007] 3. The viscosity of phosphoric acid is high during the denitrification process, which affects the denitrification effect

[0008] Due to the high content of impurities such as iron, aluminum, and magnesium in the raw ore, and the strong activity of nitric acid, the viscosity of phosphoric acid increases during the denitrification process, which in turn affects the denitrification efficiency and causes the nitrogen content in the final product to be relatively high.

[0009] To this end, the present application provides a device and system for decomposing phosphate rock with nitric acid to produce ammonium phosphate as a by-product nitric acid phosphate fertilizer. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] The following will clearly and completely describe the concept, specific structure and technical effects of this application in combination with the embodiments and drawings, so as to fully understand the purpose, characteristics and effects of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of them.

The various technical features created in this application can be combined interactively without conflicting with each other.

[0035] It is currently found that water-insoluble matter accounts for 8.6% of the components of nitrophosphate fertilizer products. The higher the content of acid-insoluble matter in phosphate rock powder, the higher the acid-insoluble matter separation requirements of the nitrophosphate fertilizer equipment. If the separation efficiency is low, it will not only affect the product quality, but also shorten the service life of the equipment, increase the difficulty of operation, and affect the stable operation of the process. To produce qualified nitrophosphate fertilizer products using phosphate concentrate with an acid-insoluble matter content of 12%, the acid-insoluble matter separation rate must be greater than 30% to meet the requirements of the production process and product quality. For this purpose, the following methods are provided: Figure 1 As shown, a device for preparing ammonium phosphate as a by-product nitric phosphate fertilizer by decomposing phosphate rock with nitric acid includes an acid hydrolysis tank 101, the acid hydrolysis tank 101 is connected to a first separator 102, the first separator 102 is connected to a first crystallizer 103, the first crystallizer 103 is connected to a second separator 104, the second separator 104 is connected to a decalcification tank 201, the decalcification tank 201 is connected to a denitrification tank 203, and the denitrification tank 203 is respectively connected to a reslurry tank 204 and a purification device 301;

[0036] The reslurry tank 204 is connected to the neutralization tank 105, and the neutralization tank 105 is connected to the first concentrator 106;

[0037] The purification device 301 is connected to a second concentrator 302 .

[0038] Specifically, phosphate concentrate and nitric acid are added to an acidolysis tank to carry out an acidolysis reaction. After the reaction is completed, an acidolysis feed liquid is obtained; the acidolysis feed liquid is introduced into a first separator for separation to separate acid-insoluble matter and obtain a first filtrate; the first filtrate is introduced into a first crystallizer for crystallization to precipitate calcium nitrate crystals, and filtered to obtain a first crystallization separation liquid; the first crystallization separation liquid is then introduced into a second separator for separation to separate acid-insoluble matter again and obtain a second filtrate;

[0039] The second filtrate is introduced into a decalcification tank, sulfuric acid is added for deep decalcification to obtain a decalcified liquid; the decalcified liquid is introduced into a third separator to obtain gypsum and a third filtrate;

[0040] The third filtrate is introduced into a denitrification tank for denitrification, producing acid residue, denitrified liquid, and condensate. The acid residue is introduced into a reslurry tank. The denitrified liquid is introduced into a purification device for purification to obtain a purified liquid, which is then introduced into the second concentrated liquid for concentration. Specifically, the second concentrator 302 is used to concentrate the purified liquid obtained from the purification device 301, precipitating phosphates such as monoammonium hydrogen phosphate and diammonium dihydrogen phosphate in the purified liquid, and then filtering to obtain phosphate solids.

[0041] After the reslurry treatment in the reslurry tank, a reslurry liquid is obtained; the reslurry liquid is introduced into the neutralization tank for neutralization treatment (gaseous ammonia is added for neutralization reaction), and after the neutralization reaction is completed, a neutralized liquid is obtained; the neutralized liquid is introduced into the first concentrator for concentration treatment to obtain a concentrated feed liquid; specifically, the first concentrator 106 is used to concentrate the neutralized liquid after neutralization.

[0042] In some embodiments, the first separator includes a sedimentation tank and a filter press connected to the sedimentation tank. The filter press is used to separate the large particles of acid-insoluble matter in the acid hydrolysis liquid in the sedimentation tank, and the dense phase is separated by the filter press. The overflow liquid of the sedimentation tank is separated to remove more than 30% of the large particles of acid-insoluble matter, ensuring that the crystallization and calcium nitrate filtration operations are not affected, while also reducing wear on the equipment.

[0043] In some embodiments, the second separator includes a horizontal spiral centrifuge; the first crystallization separation liquid is heated and a filter aid is added, and then introduced into the horizontal spiral centrifuge for fine separation. The removal rate of acid-insoluble matter reaches more than 95%, which not only achieves low-cost operation of acid-insoluble matter removal, but also creates conditions for high-value utilization of white gypsum.

[0044] Specifically, during crystallization separation in the first crystallizer, since the particle size of the acid-insoluble matter is relatively small, the acid-insoluble matter in the first crystallization separation liquid cannot be filtered out using conventional centrifugal equipment. Therefore, most of the acid-insoluble matter remains in the acid-insoluble matter. The acid-insoluble matter in the first crystallization separation liquid is centrifuged in a second separator to separate most of the acid-insoluble matter and obtain a second filtrate.

[0050] Specifically, the denitrified liquid is introduced into a first-stage purifier, and a purifier is added to the first-stage purifier to remove heavy metals, sulfur and other anionic impurities in the denitrified liquid. After separation, a first-stage purified liquid is obtained; the first-stage purified liquid is introduced into a second-stage purifier, and ammonia is added to remove the cations therein: Fe 3+ 、Al 3+ Mg 2+ , Ca 2+ After separation of impurities, the second-stage purified liquid and white fertilizer are obtained; the second-stage purified liquid is introduced into the three-stage purifier to remove other accumulated cations to obtain the third-stage purified liquid and white fertilizer.

[0053] In some embodiments, the denitrification tank 203 is connected to the extraction tank 501 , the extraction tank 501 is connected to the stripping tank 502 , and the stripping tank 502 is connected to the third concentrator 503 .

[0054] Specifically, the denitrified liquid can be introduced into an extraction tank for extraction treatment, and then subjected to stripping treatment in a stripping tank and concentration treatment in a third concentrator to obtain industrial phosphoric acid.

[0055] In some embodiments, the three-stage purifier 3013 is connected to the iron phosphate production line 401 .

[0056] Specifically, after purification treatment in the three-stage purifier, a three-stage purified liquid is obtained.

[0060] Acid hydrolysis reaction: In the acid hydrolysis tank, the phosphate concentrate is mixed with nitric acid and undergoes an acid hydrolysis reaction to produce an acid hydrolysis liquid.

[0061] Initial separation: The acid hydrolysis liquid enters the first separator, where the acid-insoluble matter is separated by sedimentation and filter press to obtain the first filtrate.

[0064] Decalcification treatment: The second filtrate enters the decalcification tank, where sulfuric acid is added for deep decalcification to obtain decalcified liquid and gypsum.

[0065] Denitration: The decalcified liquid enters the denitration tank for denitration, producing denitrated liquid, acid residue, and condensate. The condensate can be recycled and reused in the acid hydrolysis tank.

[0066] Reslurry and neutralization: The acid residue enters the reslurry tank for reslurry treatment to obtain reslurry liquid. The reslurry liquid enters the neutralization tank, where ammonia is added for neutralization reaction to obtain neutralized liquid.

[0068] Subsequent processing: The neutralized liquid is concentrated in the first concentrator to obtain a concentrated liquid, which is then granulated, dried, screened, and crushed to produce the nitrophosphate fertilizer product. The phosphate from the second concentrator enters the second crystallizer for crystallization, and the phosphate product is obtained after separation and drying.
