Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of wastewater resource recovery technology, and more specifically, relates to a method and system for recovering phosphorus resources from sludge incineration ash. Background Technology

[0002] Phosphorus (P) is a non-renewable resource, a constituent element of biological genetic material (DNA and RNA) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and an essential element for human life activities and the growth of plants and animals. Phosphorus resources are typically derived from phosphate rock, and phosphorus consumption is closely related to population size, agricultural production, and resource export trade. To alleviate phosphorus shortages, recovering phosphorus from waste and achieving the recycling of phosphorus resources is particularly important. Sewage sludge, a solid waste generated during phosphorus removal in urban wastewater treatment plants, can contain up to 5 wt.% phosphorus, thus it is considered a promising phosphorus-containing solid waste.

[0003] Sludge incineration is a common method for the harmless disposal of sludge. During the incineration process, the volume and weight of the sludge are greatly reduced, and organic matter, bacteria, and insect eggs are oxidized. Phosphorus in the sludge continuously accumulates during this process and eventually combines with heavy metals in the sludge to form complex phosphorus-containing minerals in the sludge incineration ash. Typically, the phosphorus content in sludge incineration ash can reach 4-11.9 wt.%, making it a phosphorus-containing solid waste with great potential for phosphorus recovery.

[0004] Currently, phosphorus recovery from sludge incineration ash mainly falls into two categories: thermochemical methods and wet chemical phosphorus extraction. Thermochemical methods use reagents to solidify or remove heavy metals from sludge incineration ash, but require secondary high-temperature treatment, consuming significant energy and making it difficult to recover pure phosphorus. Wet chemical phosphorus extraction simultaneously leaches phosphorus and heavy metals from sludge incineration ash into the liquid phase, and then separates them using subsequent separation technologies. As a simple, low-requirement, and low-cost phosphorus recovery method, it is widely used. Commonly used leaching agents are mainly strong and moderately strong acids such as sulfuric acid, nitric acid, and hydrochloric acid. However, specific liquid-to-solid ratios and other conditions still need optimization. Insufficient acid content will lead to incomplete phosphorus leaching from the sludge incineration ash. Simultaneously, the metal ions in the leachate are positively charged while the phosphate ions are negatively charged. In this case, secondary precipitation, primarily due to electrostatic attraction, may occur, reducing the amount of phosphorus leached. Secondly, due to the acidic nature and complex composition of the leachate, the selection of separation methods and materials is quite demanding in the subsequent phosphate separation process. In summary, the wet phosphorus extraction process from sludge incineration ash faces several challenges, including incomplete phosphorus leaching, the tendency of phosphorus in the leachate to undergo secondary precipitation with heavy metals, and poor separation efficiency between phosphorus and heavy metals in the leachate. These challenges have become the main limiting factors in the wet phosphorus extraction process from sludge incineration ash. Therefore, designing a wet phosphorus extraction process that uses less extractant, achieves a high phosphorus leaching rate, resists secondary precipitation caused by heavy metal binding, and facilitates phosphorus separation from the leachate is of crucial practical significance for improving the wet chemical phosphorus extraction process from sludge incineration ash.

[0005] Chinese patent application CN101339133B discloses a method for extracting and analyzing the composition of organic phosphorus from calcareous sediments. The method used in this invention employs slightly acidic EDTA (C... 10 H 16 The sediment was rinsed and centrifuged with N2O8 (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) solution. Then, using a traditional extraction method, a mixture of NaOH and EDTA solution was used to extract the sediment through shaking and centrifugation. A portion of the NaOH+EDTA extract was then used to determine the total phosphorus content using a spectrometer. However, this invention has the following shortcomings: 1. The extraction rate of total phosphorus from the sediment using the NaOH+EDTA extract is relatively low; 2. It lacks a process for determining and separating the concentrations of other impurity ions in the extraction solution.

[0006] Chinese patent application CN106430136B discloses a method for recovering phosphorus and removing heavy metals from sludge incineration ash. The method uses sulfuric acid dissolution to dissolve heavy metals and phosphorus-containing compounds in the sludge incineration ash into a solution. The mixture is then subjected to solid-liquid separation. NaOH is added to the supernatant to adjust the pH to 8-10, and Na₂S is added to react with the heavy metals in the supernatant to form a precipitate. After centrifugation, the heavy metals are removed. Ca(OH)₂ is added to the supernatant to adjust the pH to 10-12. 2+ With PO4 in solution 3- Calcium phosphate precipitate is formed, and after centrifugation, high-quality calcium phosphate is obtained, achieving the purpose of recovering phosphorus from the solution. However, the shortcomings of this invention are: 1. Sulfuric acid is used as the leaching agent in the leaching process, which requires high corrosion resistance of the reactor; 2. The leaching reaction time is long (10-12 hours), resulting in low leaching efficiency; 3. Strong acids and strong bases are used, involving multiple pH adjustment operations, resulting in large reagent consumption; 4. During the process of adjusting the pH to alkaline, there is a possibility that phosphorus may form secondary precipitates with other metals. Summary of the Invention
