Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a device and method for recovering heavy metals, and in particular to a device and method for recovering heavy metal chromium from tanning wastewater. Background Art
[0002] The amount of wastewater in the leather industry is large. Generally, each production and processing of a pigskin consumes about 0.3 to 0.5 m3 of water. 3 The production and processing of a piece of salt wet cowhide consumes 1.0 to 1.5 m 3 The production and processing of a sheepskin consumes 0.2 to 0.3 m of water. 3 The production and processing of a piece of buffalo leather consumes 1.5 to 2.0 m 3 Depending on the product type and green body type, 60 to 120 m3 of water is required to produce 1 ton of raw leather. 3 As a major wastewater discharger, the tanning industry is also known for its heavy metal chromium pollution. Consequently, it has become a key sector under pollution monitoring. With stricter environmental policies and growing public awareness, the government has implemented a number of mandatory measures. The newly released "Pollutant Emission Standard for Leather and Fur Processing Industries" (GB30486-2013) requires total chromium emissions to be controlled below 1.5 mg / L. This requires companies to strengthen the proper disposal of heavy metal chromium in tanning wastewater and meet environmental standards. Therefore, the effective treatment of heavy metal chromium in chromium-containing wastewater is becoming a growing concern for tanning companies.
[0003] Chromium-containing wastewater generated by tanning plants typically contains 80-100 mg / L of chromium, primarily in the form of inorganic Cr(III). The pH ranges from 2.5 to 4.0, the chloride ion concentration ranges from 2 to 15 g / L, and the chromaticity (dilution method) ranges from 800 to 3500 times. Currently, this low-concentration chromium-containing wastewater is often treated using alkaline coagulation and sedimentation. This method involves adding alkali and coagulants to the wastewater to achieve deep chromium removal. Commonly used coagulants include ferrous sulfate, aluminum sulfate, PAC, and PFC. While this method is simple to operate, it does not completely remove chromium, making it difficult to meet the 1.5 mg / L discharge standard. This method also produces a large amount of chromium-containing sludge, which is considered hazardous waste and is also difficult to treat harmlessly.
[0004] CN102381781A discloses a chromium recovery process for chrome tanning wastewater from leather making. The process effectively diverts and separately collects the chrome tanning wastewater from leather making. The process includes a primary filtration using a 1-3 mm grid, a secondary filtration using a filter press, a reaction under a controlled pH value, and a tertiary filtration using a filter press again. The chromium trioxide content of the obtained filter residue, i.e., the chromium mud, is greater than 8 wt %, and the total chromium content of the filtrate and the discharged wastewater is ≤1.5 mg / L in terms of Cr. However, although the chromium removal effect meets the emission standards, the disadvantage is that the chromium residue obtained has a large amount of impurities and a low chromium trioxide content. It is a solid hazardous waste that is not easy to utilize. Since the chromium mud has a certain solubility when piled in the environment, it is easy to cause secondary pollution. In addition, for chromium contents in the range of 80-100 mg / L, the chromium content in the residue produced is even lower, making recovery more difficult and having less value.
[0005] CN101549925A discloses a method for electrolytically recovering hexavalent chromium from electrochromium plating wastewater, comprising the following steps: sequentially adding a sulfuric acid solution, sodium metabisulfite, and a sodium carbonate solution to the electrochromium plating wastewater; the electrochromium plating wastewater after reaction flows into a precipitator for precipitation; after precipitation, the supernatant flows into a neutralization tank for neutralization, the electrochromium plating wastewater is input into a filter press for filter pressing, and the obtained trivalent chromium salt is washed with clean water; the electrochromium plating wastewater, trivalent chromium salt, and sulfuric acid are added to an electrolytic cell of a concentrator and sulfuric acid is added to a porous tank of the concentrator; and when the hexavalent chromium concentration in the electrochromium plating wastewater in the electrolytic cell of the concentrator reaches greater than 20 g / L and the trivalent chromium concentration is less than 1 g / L, the electrochromium plating wastewater can be used as a replenisher for electrochromium plating. Although this method can recover hexavalent chromium from electroplating chromium wastewater through electrolysis, its shortcomings are: the process is complex and long, and the types and quantities of reagents added are large. More importantly, since trivalent chromium is a cation, when direct current is applied for electrolysis, under normal circumstances, trivalent chromium ions (cations) move toward the cathode and have a very low probability of moving toward the anode. Only trivalent chromium ions near the anode can lose three electrons to become hexavalent chromium ions. Therefore, the efficiency of converting trivalent chromium into hexavalent chromium through electrolysis is very low. Therefore, in actual use, the electrolysis time is too long and the cost is too high, which limits its large-scale industrial use.
[0006] CN103922521A discloses a method for treating chrome tanning wastewater and recovering chromium. This method treats chromium-containing wastewater and recovers the chromium therein through pretreatment, pH adjustment, electrocoagulation, aeration and sedimentation, sludge reaction tank treatment, and electrocatalytic oxidation. However, this method has disadvantages such as a long process, a large amount of reagents added, and low electrocatalytic oxidation efficiency. In particular, this method is more suitable for chromium-containing wastewater with a high chromium content (for example, the chromium content in the embodiment is as high as 2500 mg / L), but is less effective for wastewater with a low chromium content.
[0007] CN103695970A discloses a method for treating chromium-containing tanning wastewater and recovering metallic chromium. The method comprises performing simple pretreatment on the tanning wastewater to remove solid impurities; adding urea, boric acid, and methanol to the wastewater after removing impurities, and adjusting the pH value; and then applying electricity for electrolysis to obtain metallic chromium. However, this method is only suitable for recovering chromium from wastewater with high chromium content. Under normal circumstances, Cr 3+ Electrolysis conditions generally require that Cr in the electrolyte 3+ The concentration is 95-105 g / L. Under this condition, the DC power consumption is 11,000-18,500 kW·h / tCr. However, the chromium content in chrome-containing tanning wastewater is generally not high, especially wastewater with a chromium content below 100 mg / L. It is difficult to achieve the conditions for normal electrolysis of trivalent chromium. If low-content chromium wastewater is treated by electrolysis to produce metallic chromium, the DC power consumption will be even higher, which is uneconomical.
[0008] In summary, it is urgent to find a device and method for recovering heavy metal chromium from leather wastewater with high chromium recovery rate, chromium removal wastewater that meets standards, low effluent chroma, no secondary pollution, recyclable resources, simple operation, low chemical consumption, low energy consumption, low cost, and suitable for industrial production. Summary of the Invention

When both the anode and cathode of the electrolysis device are replaceable, the anode can be replaced with, for example, an inert electrode, an iron plate, and an inert electrode, and the cathode can be replaced with, in turn, an iron plate, an inert electrode, and an iron plate, depending on the needs of the electrolysis operation. When the electrolysis device consists of three electrolytic cells connected in series, wastewater enters the three electrolytic cells in sequence for electrolysis.
[0015] The working principle of the electrolysis device is: first, electrolysis is performed using an inert anode to produce a certain amount of oxidant in the wastewater, then, electrolysis is performed using an iron plate anode to produce a certain amount of divalent iron ions in the wastewater, and finally, electrolysis is performed again using an inert anode to further produce oxidant in the wastewater, allowing the iron ions in the wastewater to react with the chromium ions in the wastewater to generate ferrite.
[0016] Preferably, the cathode of the electrolysis device is an iron plate or an inert electrode.
[0017] Preferably, the material of the inert electrode is graphite, iridium tantalum or ruthenium iridium.
[0018] Preferably, an aeration device is provided at the bottom of the electrolysis device, which is mainly used to ensure that ferrite is generated more quickly.
[0019] Preferably, the aeration device is a hot air aeration device.
[0020] Preferably, the pretreatment tank and the aging stirring tank are both provided with a stirring device. The purpose of the pretreatment tank is to adjust the pH value of the wastewater and the chloride ion content in the wastewater. The purpose of the aging stirring tank is to further stabilize the formation of ferrite.
[0021] Preferably, the pretreatment tank and the aging stirring tank are made of plastic or corrosion-resistant stainless steel.
[0022] Preferably, the pretreatment tank is further provided with a water inlet.
[0023] Preferably, the pre-treatment filter press and the final treatment filter press are plate filter presses or diaphragm filter presses.
[0024] Preferably, both the pre-treatment filter press and the final treatment filter press are provided with a discharge port.
[0025] Preferably, the chromium removal wastewater intermediate tank is also provided with a water outlet.
[0026] The present invention further solves the technical problem by adopting the following technical solution: a method for recovering heavy metal chromium from tanning wastewater, comprising the following steps:
[0027] (1) Pretreatment: Add alkali to the tanning wastewater, stir and react, filter, and obtain pretreated wastewater;
[0028] (2) Electrolysis: The pretreated wastewater obtained in step (1) is subjected to three aeration electrolysis steps to obtain electrolyzed wastewater;
[0029] (3) Aging of ferrite: adding alkali to the electrolytic wastewater obtained in step (2), stirring and aging, filtering, and obtaining chromium-containing ferrite and chromium-removed wastewater.
[0030] Preferably, in step (1), the main components of the tanning wastewater are: Cr 80-100 mg / L, Cl - 2-15 g / L, pH value 2.5-4.1, chromaticity 800-3500 times. The tanning wastewater used in the present invention comes from a tannery. The chromaticity in the method of the present invention is obtained by dilution multiple method.
[0031] Preferably, in step (1), the alkali is one or more of sodium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide or calcium oxide. Sodium hydroxide is more preferred because it can reduce the amount of slag.
[0032] Preferably, in step (1), the amount of the base used is such that the pH value after the stirring reaction is between 5 and 8. Under the aforementioned pH conditions, the electrolysis is facilitated to proceed smoothly.
[0033] Preferably, in step (1), the stirring reaction temperature is room temperature, the stirring speed is 60-100 rpm, and the time is 30-60 min. Acid-base neutralization reaction occurs during the stirring reaction, which is more conducive to quickly reaching the pH value under the above conditions.
[0034] Preferably, in step (1), the chloride ion concentration in the pretreated wastewater is controlled at 5 to 15 g / L. If the concentration is insufficient, chloride ions are supplemented. At this chloride ion concentration, it is easier to obtain a certain amount of chlorine by electrolysis, which is used to oxidize divalent iron to trivalent iron as a component of ferrite. If the chloride ion content is too low, the electrolysis time is long and energy consumption increases. If the chloride ion content is too high, the cost increases and the salt content in the wastewater increases, which is not conducive to wastewater treatment.
[0035] Step (1) is filtered after pretreatment to remove mechanical impurities in the wastewater, thereby reducing the impact of the impurities on subsequent electrolysis and ferrite quality.
[0036] Preferably, in step (2), the anodes used in the three-step aeration electrolysis are, in order, an inert electrode, an iron plate, and an inert electrode, and the cathode is an iron plate or an inert electrode. The purpose of electrolysis is to provide the wastewater with the divalent iron ions and trivalent iron ions required for the formation of ferrite. At the same time, during the process of the divalent iron ions and trivalent iron ions forming ferrite, the chromium ions in the wastewater enter the lattice of the ferrite, forming a stable component. Aeration can not only maintain a certain temperature, but also reduce the concentration difference of the wastewater during the electrolysis process.
[0037] Preferably, in step (2), the material of the inert electrode is graphite, iridium tantalum or ruthenium iridium, etc.
[0038] Preferably, in step (2), the current density of the first aeration electrolysis is 300 to 1000 A / m 2 The current consumption is 0.6-1.6A·h / L, the temperature is 10-40°C, and the duration is 10-20 minutes. The purpose of the first aeration electrolysis is to produce a certain amount of oxidant, such as chlorine, in the wastewater. Under the described conditions, the amount of chlorine produced is more easily controlled, oxidizing some organic and inorganic matter in the wastewater to reduce color while retaining a sufficient amount of chlorine for the subsequent oxidation of divalent iron ions to trivalent iron ions, preparing the conditions for ferrite formation. Because the wastewater contains some reducing substances that consume some chlorine, the electrolysis time using an inert electrode as the anode is longer than when using an iron plate as the anode.
[0039] Preferably, in step (2), the current density of the second aeration electrolysis is 300 to 1000 A / m 2 The current consumption is 1.0-2.1A·h / L, the temperature is 20-50°C, and the time is 10-20 minutes. The amount of iron plate dissolved is controlled to be 0.95-2.0g / L of wastewater. The purpose of the second aeration electrolysis is to dissolve a certain amount of iron through electrolysis. Then, the chlorine generated by the first aeration electrolysis oxidizes some of the divalent iron to produce trivalent iron, so that the molar ratio of divalent iron to trivalent iron in the wastewater reaches 1:2, which forms the ferrite. The wastewater contains a certain amount of trivalent chromium ions, which also form a component of the ferrite along with the trivalent iron ions. Due to the low chromium content in the wastewater, the trivalent chromium ions integrate into the ferrite lattice formed by the divalent iron and trivalent iron ions, forming a strong structure. Under these conditions, the molar ratio of divalent iron to trivalent iron in the wastewater is more conducive to forming a stable ferrite, and at the specified temperature, the formation of ferrite is more favorable.
[0040] Preferably, in step (2), the current density of the third aeration electrolysis is 300 to 1000 A / m 2 , current consumption is 1.0~1.6A·h / L, temperature is 30~80℃, and time is 10~20min, until the color of wastewater changes from dark green to brown-black.
[0041] Preferably, in step (2), the aeration rate of the three aeration electrolysis steps is 0.1 to 0.2 L / min·L of wastewater, and the aeration pressure is 0.01 to 0.05 MPa. Aeration during the electrolysis process helps to reduce concentration differences by fully stirring the wastewater, which is more conducive to the smooth progress of electrolysis.
[0042] Preferably, in step (3), the base is sodium hydroxide or the like.
[0043] Preferably, in step (3), the amount of the base used is to adjust the pH value to 7 to 10. Within the pH value range, the formed ferrite is more stable, insoluble in common acids and bases, and even more insoluble in water, ensuring that the chromium therein does not cause secondary pollution.
[0044] Preferably, in step (3), the stirring and aging temperature is room temperature, the stirring speed is 60-100 rpm, and the time is 10-20 minutes. During the electrolysis process, most of the ferrite is formed, but it is not complete. It is necessary to continue stirring and aging to further age and stabilize the ferrite generated by the electrolyzed wastewater.
[0045] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0046] (1) The device of the present invention has a high chromium recovery rate, no secondary pollution, recyclable resources, simple structure, low energy consumption and low cost;
[0047] (2) The method of the present invention organically combines electrolysis and ferrite generation technology, with a chromium recovery rate of up to 99.94%. The chromium content in the chromium-removed wastewater is ≤0.10 mg / L, which is far lower than the GB30486-2013 emission standard (total chromium emission concentration below 1.5 mg / L). At the same time, it can remove odor and suspended solids in the wastewater, reduce the chroma to 45 times, and the effluent is clear; there is no difficult-to-treat chromium-containing sludge, no chromium-containing hazardous waste, and the wet slag production rate of ferrite slag is low, generally 10 kg / m 3 The process has no secondary pollution and the produced ferrite slag can be used as raw material for ferrochrome alloy, realizing the recycling of chromium resources. The process has simple operation, low reagent consumption, low cost and is suitable for industrial production. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
