Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of wastewater treatment, in particular to a treatment method of fluorine-containing wastewater. BACKGROUND

[0002] Fluorine is one of the important trace elements in human body, and the content of fluorine exceeding or being lower than the allowable range will cause great harm to human body. When the content of fluorine is too high, it will affect the metabolism of calcium and phosphorus in human body, and make the material metabolism and physiological function of human body disorder. The appropriate fluorine mass concentration of drinking water is 0.5-1.0 mg / L. In addition, in the industry, the wastewater discharged by the industries such as fluorite ore mining, metal smelting, aluminum processing, coke, glass, electronics, electroplating, chemical fertilizer and pesticide often contains high-concentration fluorides, causing serious environmental pollution. In order to protect the living environment of human beings and improve the quality of life of people, the defluorination research of fluorine-containing wastewater is an important task in the field of environmental protection and tailoring at home and abroad. The defluorination methods mainly include adsorption method, electrocoagulation method, reverse osmosis method, ion exchange method, membrane separation method, chemical precipitation method and coagulation sedimentation method. Among them, the electrocoagulation method and the reverse osmosis method have good removal effect, but the treatment cost is high; the ion exchange method, the membrane separation method and the precipitation method have relatively poor selectivity and limited removal capacity; the adsorption method has low research cost, good defluorination effect, high efficiency and simple operation, so it has been an important method for treating fluorine-containing wastewater.

[0003] At present, the commonly used adsorbents for removing negative ions in water include activated carbon, activated alumina, bone charcoal, zeolite and activated magnesium oxide. The activated alumina defluorination is the most widely used and most successful defluorination method at home and abroad, but the equipment investment is high, the safety of contacting strong acid and strong base is poor, and there are also defects such as poor mechanical strength. The application amount of bone charcoal is only second to that of activated alumina, and its defects are low adsorption capacity, large consumption of regenerant, long regeneration time, limited resources and high cost. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop an adsorption material suitable for fluorine-containing wastewater with low cost, easy regeneration, large adsorption capacity and high efficiency for the advanced treatment of fluorine-containing wastewater.

[0004] Pseudo-boehmite, also known as gelatinous boehmite or pseudo-gibbsite, has a chemical formula of AlOOH·nH2O (n=0.080-0.602), and is a kind of alumina hydrate with uncertain composition and incomplete crystallization. It is a non-toxic powder with low crystallinity and spatial network structure, which can be used as a catalyst carrier and can also react with nitric acid, hydrochloric acid and the like. There are many preparation methods of pseudo-boehmite, including alcohol aluminum hydrolysis method, carbonization method and aluminum salt neutralization method. The aluminum salt neutralization method, also known as aluminum salt and aluminate precipitation method, includes neutralization reaction of AlCl3 and NH4OH, and Al2(SO4)3 and NaAlO2 to generate pseudo-boehmite.

[0005] Among them, NaAlO2-Al2(SO4)3 method (also known as aluminum sulfate method) is a commonly used method for preparing pseudo-boehmite at present, both raw materials can provide aluminum source, corrosion is small, and it is liquid-liquid reaction, its process is simple, cost is low, and it can produce alumina carrier with large pore volume and specific surface area, and the preparation steps include neutralization, gelation, aging, washing, filtration, flash drying and the like.
