TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of waste liquid treatment, and particularly relates to a lithium ion battery diaphragm coating waste liquid treatment system. BACKGROUND
[0002] The lithium battery diaphragm, as an important component of the lithium ion battery, plays a role of separating the positive and negative electrodes, preventing internal short circuit of the battery, allowing the electrolyte ions to pass freely, and completing the electrochemical charging and discharging process. The performance of the lithium battery diaphragm determines the interface structure and internal resistance of the battery, and directly affects the capacity, cycle performance, safety performance and other characteristics of the battery. The diaphragm with excellent performance plays an important role in improving the comprehensive performance of the battery, and is called the "third electrode" of the battery.
[0003] For the lithium battery diaphragm coated with oil, water washing is usually required. After water washing, a certain amount of organic solvent wastewater is generated, and the concentration is about 10% to 30%. The concentration of the wastewater is low, and the wastewater cannot be directly used, and the treatment is difficult. Usually, the solvent recovery manufacturer is invited to treat the wastewater by high-temperature distillation and concentration. However, the treatment method has waste gas emission, and is easy to pollute the environment. Therefore, the waste liquid is usually treated and recovered. The common treatment process is as follows: the low-concentration raw liquid is subjected to vacuum low-temperature evaporation, the concentrated liquid generated is recycled and reused, and the high-COD distillation water generated is treated by COD reduction and then discharged.
[0004] However, the prior art has the following problems: in the vacuum low-temperature evaporation process, as the concentration of the raw liquid gradually increases, the content of the organic matter in the distillation water is higher and higher, and the cumulative concentration of the organic solvent in the distillation water is higher and higher. If the organic matter is not recycled and reused, not only the resources will be wasted, but also the environment will be polluted. Therefore, the present application provides a lithium ion battery diaphragm coating waste liquid treatment system to solve the problems in the background art. SUMMARY
[0005] The present application aims to provide a lithium ion battery diaphragm coating waste liquid treatment system. The organic separation membrane is added to the system to further treat the distillation water, separate the organic matter in the distillation water, obtain low-COD distillation water, and recycle the low-water-content organic high-purity solvent, so as to solve the problems in the background art.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0037] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0038] As mentioned in the background of the present application, the inventor has found through research that the existing lithium ion battery separator coating waste liquid treatment process is as follows: low concentration stock solution is vacuum low-temperature evaporated, the concentrated liquid generated is recycled, and the high COD (chemical oxygen demand) distilled water generated is treated to meet the discharge standard after COD reduction, as shown in Figure 5 However, in the vacuum low-temperature evaporation process, as the concentration of the stock solution gradually increases, the content of organic matter in the distilled water becomes higher and higher, resulting in a higher and higher cumulative concentration of organic solvents in the distilled water. If these organic matters are not recycled, not only will resources be wasted, but also environmental pollution will be caused.
[0039] In order to solve the above-mentioned defects, the present application discloses a lithium ion battery separator coating waste liquid treatment system, which adds an organic separation membrane 8 in the system to further treat the distilled water, separate the organic matter in the distilled water, and obtain low-COD distilled water. At the same time, the separated organic high-purity solvent with low water content can be recycled.
[0040] The present application will be described in detail below in combination with the drawings on how the solutions of the present application solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

In use, the original liquid to be treated in the waste liquid storage tank 1 is extracted by the first water pump 2 into the vacuum evaporation kettle 4 for vacuum low-temperature evaporation, and then the high-COD distilled water generated is separated by the organic separation membrane 8, so that the organic matter in the distilled water is separated into the first post-treatment mechanism, while the distilled water cannot pass through the organic separation membrane 8 into the second post-treatment mechanism, thereby realizing further treatment of the distilled water, separating the organic matter in the distilled water, and obtaining low-COD distilled water, and the separated organic high-purity solvent with low water content can be recycled.
[0042] In the embodiment, the first post-treatment mechanism specifically comprises: a first vacuum condensing tank 9, the output end of the first vacuum condensing tank 9 is connected with a first vacuum generator 10, the output end of the first vacuum generator 10 is connected with a first condensing storage tank 11, the output end of the first condensing storage tank 11 is respectively connected with a fourth water pump 12 and a fifth water pump 13, and the output end of the fifth water pump 13 is connected with the first vacuum generator 10. When the organic matter in the distilled water is separated into the first vacuum condensing tank 9 of the first post-treatment mechanism, the first vacuum condensing tank 9 performs vacuum condensation on the organic matter, the condensed organic matter enters the first condensing storage tank 11 through the first vacuum generator 10, and the organic matter in the first condensing storage tank 11 can be discharged to an external organic matter collecting tank through the fourth water pump 12. It should be noted that the fifth water pump 13 cooperates with the first vacuum generator 10 to perform vacuum pumping on the first vacuum condensing tank 9 so that the first vacuum condensing tank 9 is in a vacuum state.

The distilled water that cannot pass through the organic separation membrane 8 still contains a small amount of organic matter, when it enters the second vacuum condensing tank 14, a large amount of water and a small amount of organic matter are condensed out, the organic matter content in the condensed water is very low and can be directly discharged without causing environmental pollution, the condensed water enters the second condensing storage tank 15 through the second vacuum generator 18, and the condensed water in the second condensing storage tank 15 can be directly discharged through the sixth water pump 16, and the seventh water pump 17 cooperates with the second vacuum generator 18 to perform vacuum pumping on the second condensing storage tank 15 so that the second condensing storage tank 15 is in a vacuum state.
[0044] In the embodiment, a first concentration tester 22 is connected to the outside of the vacuum evaporation kettle 4, a second concentration tester 23 is connected to the outside of the first vacuum condenser 9, and a third concentration tester 24 is connected to the outside of the second vacuum condenser 14. The first concentration tester 22, the second concentration tester 23, and the third concentration tester 24 can be used to monitor the concentration of the organic matter in the vacuum evaporation kettle 4, the first vacuum condenser 9, and the second vacuum condenser 14, respectively. In combination with the electrically controlled valves installed at the input ends of the vacuum evaporation kettle 4, the first vacuum condenser 9, and the second vacuum condenser 14, the concentration of each tank in the process can be automatically controlled.
[0045] In the embodiment, a filter 3 is connected between the first water pump 2 and the vacuum evaporation kettle 4. The filter 3 can filter out solid particles in the raw liquid in advance.
[0046] In the embodiment, the lithium ion battery separator coating waste liquid treatment system further comprises a second water pump 5 connected to the water outlet at the bottom of the vacuum evaporation kettle 4, a concentrated liquid tank 6 connected to the water outlet of the second water pump 5, and a third water pump 7 connected to the water outlet of the concentrated liquid tank 6.

[0047] Variant Example One
[0048] Please refer to Figure 2 In the variant example, a temperature adjustment is added to the above-mentioned embodiment, that is, a first heater 20 is arranged at the input end of the organic separation membrane 8. The first heater 20 can adjust the temperature of the distilled water before it enters the organic separation membrane 8, so that the temperature of the steam is adjusted to the most suitable temperature range for the separation of the organic separation membrane 8, thereby improving the separation efficiency of the organic separation membrane 8.
[0049] Variant Example Two
[0050] Please refer to Figure 3, the water separation membrane 19 is connected to the top gas outlet of the vacuum evaporation kettle 4, and the water separation membrane 19 is connected in parallel with the organic separation membrane 8, the output end of the water separation membrane 19 is connected to the first post-treatment mechanism and the second post-treatment mechanism respectively, and the water separation membrane 19 and the input end and the output end of the organic separation membrane 8 are all provided with electromagnetic valves. As the concentration of organic solvents in distilled water becomes higher and higher, the water separation membrane 19 is further added on the basis of the organic separation membrane 8, and the separation treatment of distilled water vapor is switched from the organic separation membrane 8 to the water separation membrane 19 when the concentration of organic solvents is high to a certain extent, so as to fully exert the separation efficiency of the two kinds of separation membrane assemblies for the treatment of distilled water vapor with different concentrations. It should be noted that the water separation membrane 19 guides the separated water into the second post-treatment mechanism and guides the separated organic matter into the first post-treatment mechanism. In addition, in order to improve the separation efficiency, the staff can use an organic separation membrane assembly formed by combining a plurality of organic separation membranes 8 instead of the original single organic separation membrane 8, and can also use a water separation membrane assembly formed by combining a plurality of water separation membranes 19 instead of the original single water separation membrane 19. In this way, the original liquid needs to pass through a plurality of water separation membranes 19 or organic separation membranes 8 for separation when passing through the water separation membrane assembly or the organic separation membrane assembly, thereby effectively improving the separation effect.
[0051] Variant three
[0052] Please refer to Figure 4 , the water separation membrane 19 is connected to the top gas outlet of the vacuum evaporation kettle 4, and the water separation membrane 19 is connected in parallel with the organic separation membrane 8, the output end of the water separation membrane 19 is connected to the first post-treatment mechanism and the second post-treatment mechanism respectively, and the water separation membrane 19 and the input end and the output end of the organic separation membrane 8 are all provided with electromagnetic valves. As the concentration of organic solvents in distilled water becomes higher and higher, the water separation membrane 19 is further added on the basis of the organic separation membrane 8, and the separation treatment of distilled water vapor is switched from the organic separation membrane 8 to the water separation membrane 19 when the concentration of organic solvents is high to a certain extent, so as to fully exert the separation efficiency of the two kinds of separation membrane assemblies for the treatment of distilled water vapor with different concentrations. It should be noted that the water separation membrane 19 guides the separated water into the second post-treatment mechanism and guides the separated organic matter into the first post-treatment mechanism. In addition, in order to improve the separation efficiency, the staff can use an organic separation membrane assembly formed by combining a plurality of organic separation membranes 8 instead of the original single organic separation membrane 8, and can also use a water separation membrane assembly formed by combining a plurality of water separation membranes 19 instead of the original single water separation membrane 19. In this way, the original liquid needs to pass through a plurality of water separation membranes 19 or organic separation membranes 8 for separation when passing through the water separation membrane assembly or the organic separation membrane assembly, thereby effectively improving the separation effect.
[0053] The application adds organic separation membrane 8 in the system, further separates the organic matter in distilled water in the evaporation process, and the distilled water can be directly recycled or directly discharged up to the standard. In addition, through the added water separation membrane 19, cooperating with the valve switching control, when the organic solvent concentration is high to a certain concentration, the separation treatment of distilled water vapor is switched from the organic separation membrane 8 to the water separation membrane 19, so as to fully exert the separation efficiency of the two kinds of separation membrane assemblies for the treatment of distilled water vapor with different concentrations. Through the added heater, the vapor temperature can be adjusted to the most suitable temperature range for the separation of the organic separation membrane 8 or the water separation membrane 19, so as to improve the separation efficiency of the organic separation membrane 8 or the water separation membrane 19, and the use effect is more efficient. The application can improve the organic solvent recovery rate, and the low water content organic high-purity solvent separated from the distilled water can be directly recycled. In addition, the application eliminates the distilled water COD reduction treatment step, and can reduce the water treatment cost. The application installs a concentration tester, an electric control valve on the vacuum evaporation kettle 4, the first vacuum condenser 9 and the second vacuum condenser 14, and can automatically control the concentration of each tank body in the process.
