Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of wastewater treatment, and in particular to a method for treating heavy metal wastewater by utilizing a reverse osmosis membrane. Background Art

[0002] Heavy metal wastewater mainly comes from production links such as mining, electroplating, non-ferrous metal smelting, machinery manufacturing, chemical industry, electronics, and instrumentation industries. Heavy metal industrial wastewater has long-term toxicity and can be enriched in large quantities in organisms, endangering humans through the food chain, causing chronic / acute poisoning to the human body, and seriously endangering human health. Therefore, how to effectively control and manage heavy metal pollution is one of the problems that need to be solved urgently.

[0003] At present, the main methods for treating heavy metal wastewater include chemical precipitation, biological treatment, physical adsorption, electrolysis, membrane treatment, etc. Among them, membrane treatment has the advantages of high separation efficiency, no secondary pollution, energy saving and environmental protection, and resource recycling, and is widely used in the field of water treatment.

[0004] CN208471619U discloses a disc-tube reverse osmosis system for heavy metal wastewater, in which the heavy metal wastewater is pretreated and then passed into a secondary disc-tube reverse osmosis system, the clean water produced is reused, and the concentrated water is recovered. This method optimizes the flow channel design of the membrane component of the reverse osmosis system, reduces scaling, pollution and concentration polarization on the membrane surface, but the membrane equipment of the system is complex, no effective treatment plan is proposed for the reverse osmosis concentrated water, and the resource utilization efficiency is low.

[0005] CN105461139B discloses a zero-discharge process for nickel-containing heavy metal wastewater, which removes most of the heavy metals by adding heavy metal capture agents and flocculants to the heavy metal wastewater, and reuses the wastewater after repeated flocculation sedimentation, filtration, and reverse osmosis treatment. The process reduces the input of reagents in the treatment process, and the reflux design reduces the discharge of the final concentrated water, thereby improving the total water recovery rate. However, this method uses a large amount of heavy metal capture agents, treats a relatively single type of heavy metals, and has a high treatment cost.

[0006] CN205616685U discloses a heavy metal wastewater treatment system, which, through multiple reactions and multi-step sedimentation, and filtration through an ultrafiltration membrane filtration device, makes the content of multiple heavy metals in the wastewater, especially rare metals molybdenum and arsenic, meet the standards, and the treated waste residue can be effectively utilized, which can save water and achieve zero emissions. However, this method does not effectively classify and recover rare metal molybdenum and other heavy metal resources, and toxic hydrogen sulfide gas is generated during the treatment process, and the treatment steps are cumbersome.

[0007] Therefore, a method suitable for treating heavy metal wastewater and recovering molybdenum is developed, which has important practical guiding significance in the field of heavy metal wastewater treatment. Summary of the invention

[0008] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a method for treating heavy metal wastewater using a reverse osmosis membrane.

The method has a high metal molybdenum recovery rate, strong applicability, simple operation, low treatment cost, and is suitable for the treatment of a variety of heavy metal wastewaters.

[0012] (3) performing a second mixing of the concentrated water C and the inorganic acid, and performing a second solid-liquid separation to obtain a precipitate D and a filtrate E;

[0013] (4) The filtrate E is mixed with the composite precipitant for the third time, and the precipitate F and the filtrate G are obtained through the third solid-liquid separation.

[0014] The present invention adopts membrane technology combined with chemical precipitation method to treat heavy metal wastewater, thereby realizing water reuse, rare metal molybdenum resource recovery and heavy metal resource utilization. The method of the present invention effectively improves the recovery rate of rare metal molybdenum and the heavy metal removal rate, and has the characteristics of simple operation and wide application range. At the same time, the method of the present invention can also reduce the amount of reagents added in the process of molybdenum recovery and heavy metal removal, and reduce the processing cost.
