Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of chemical production, and specifically relates to a method for separating chlorine and phosphorus in a mixture of chlorophosphoric acid and ammonium chlorophosphate using anion exchange membranes. Background Technology
[0002] In my country, the sulfur-based fertilizer and chlor-alkali industries produce large quantities of hydrochloric acid that is difficult to utilize. However, using hydrochloric acid to decompose phosphate rock is an effective way to ensure the normal utilization of low-grade phosphate rock in the future. However, the chlorine and phosphorus elements in the chlorophosphoric acid or chlorophosphine ammonium solution obtained after decalcification during the hydrochloric acid decomposition of phosphate rock are difficult to separate. Chlorophosphoric acid or chlorophosphine ammonium solution can only be used to produce chlorine-based fertilizers. The value of chlorine-based fertilizers is far lower than that of sulfur-based fertilizers or phosphate ammonium, and they cannot be used in many crops such as tobacco. Currently, the commonly used separation methods are cooling chlorophosphoric acid to crystallize calcium chloride, or heating the system to volatilize hydrogen chloride. Both methods are characterized by high energy consumption, high corrosiveness, large equipment investment, and high cost, and large-scale production facilities are not currently available. Therefore, how to remove chlorine from chlorophosphoric acid or chlorophosphine ammonium solution has become a major challenge in the hydrochloric acid decomposition of phosphate rock process, limiting its large-scale application. Summary of the Invention
[0003] This invention addresses the problem of separating chlorine and phosphorus in hydrochloric acid decomposition of low-grade phosphate rock chlorophosphoric acid or ammonium chlorophosphate solution in the prior art, and aims to provide a method for separating chlorine and phosphorus in a mixture of hydrochloric acid and ammonium chlorophosphate using anion exchange membranes.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:
[0005] A method for separating chlorine and phosphorus from a mixture of chlorophosphoric acid and ammonium chlorophosphate using an anion exchange membrane includes the following steps:
[0006] Hydrochloric acid is added to low-grade phosphate rock slurry to decompose it and obtain a calcium-containing chlorophosphoric acid solution. A decalcifying agent is added to the calcium-containing chlorophosphoric acid solution to remove the calcium salt from the chlorophosphoric acid, resulting in a mixed solution of chlorophosphoric acid and ammonium chlorophosphoric acid.
[0007] A mixed solution of chlorophosphoric acid and ammonium chlorophosphate is separated by an anion exchange membrane. After separation, ammonium phosphate or phosphoric acid solution is obtained on the feed side, and hydrochloric acid with a mass concentration of 15-30% is obtained on the water side.
[0008] Furthermore, when hydrochloric acid is added to low-grade phosphate rock slurry, the molar ratio of CaO to hydrochloric acid in the phosphate rock is 1:1.9, the decomposition temperature is 40-75℃, and the time is 2-8h.
[0009] Furthermore, the grade of low-grade phosphate rock is 16-24%.
[0010] Furthermore, the decalcifying agent is ammonium sulfate or sulfuric acid.
[0011] Furthermore, the molar ratio of the decalcifying agent to calcium ions in chlorophosphoric acid is 1.0-1.1:1.
[0012] Furthermore, the hydrochloric acid concentration is 20-33%.
[0013] Furthermore, the removal of calcium salts from chlorophosphoric acid is carried out at a temperature of 40-75℃ for 2-8 hours.
[0014] Furthermore, the mixed solution of chlorophosphoric acid and ammonium chlorophosphate was subjected to membrane separation via anion exchange membrane at 35-90°C.
[0015] Furthermore, the preparation method of the anion exchange membrane is as follows: the anion membrane material is dissolved in an organic solvent, and after complete dissolution, it is ultrasonically degassed and allowed to stand to obtain a casting solution; the base membrane is fully impregnated in the organic solvent, and then the base membrane is transferred to the casting solution for full impregnation; the impregnated base membrane is fixed on a polytetrafluoroethylene plate, and then the base membrane is coated by scraping, and then placed in an oven to dry to obtain an anion exchange membrane.
[0016] Furthermore, the molecular weight of the anion exchange membrane material is 50,000 to 150,000; the base membrane is preferably at least one of PVDF membrane, PTFE membrane, PP membrane, nylon mesh and PP mesh, wherein the pore size of PVDF membrane, PTFE membrane and PP membrane is 0.22μm to 30μm, and the mesh number of nylon mesh and PP mesh is 100 to 400 mesh.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0018] This invention utilizes an anion exchange membrane to effectively separate chlorine and phosphorus in a mixed solution of chlorophosphoric acid and ammonium chlorophosphate, producing high-purity hydrochloric acid. This overcomes the biggest application challenge in the decomposition of low-grade phosphate rock with hydrochloric acid, expanding the application scope and value of the mixed solution and enabling high-value utilization of low-grade phosphate rock. It effectively protects my country's phosphate resources and provides a new method for separating chlorine and phosphorus in the mixed solution. This invention can effectively reduce production costs for manufacturing enterprises and promote the widespread implementation of hydrochloric acid decomposition of low-grade phosphate rock.

[0021] See Figure 1 The present invention discloses a method for separating chlorine and phosphorus from a chlorophosphate (ammonium) mixture using an anion exchange membrane, comprising the following steps:
[0022] (a) Add a decalcifying agent to the chlorophosphoric acid obtained by hydrochloric acid decomposition of low-grade phosphate rock, decompose it, remove the calcium salt in the chlorophosphoric acid, and obtain an acidic chlorophosphoric acid (ammonium) mixed solution.
[0023] The preferred concentration of hydrochloric acid is 20-33%, the preferred decomposition temperature is 40-75℃, the preferred decomposition time is 2-8h, and the preferred grade of phosphate rock is 16-24%. The preferred decalcifying agent is ammonium sulfate or sulfuric acid (sulfuric acid concentration is 10-98%), and the molar ratio of the decalcifying agent to calcium ions in chlorophosphoric acid is 1.0-1.1:1.
[0024] (b) The obtained chlorophosphate (ammonium) mixed solution is separated by anion exchange membrane at a temperature of 35-90°C. The remaining ammonium phosphate (or phosphoric acid) solution on the raw material side after separation is used for monoammonium phosphate production; hydrochloric acid with a mass concentration of 15-30% is obtained on the water side and returned to the hydrochloric acid decomposition phosphate rock unit.
[0025] The anion exchange membrane is prepared as follows: the anion membrane material is dissolved in an organic solvent, and after complete dissolution, it is ultrasonically degassed for 5-30 minutes and allowed to stand for 1-2 hours to obtain a casting solution; the base membrane is fully impregnated in the organic solvent, and then the base membrane is transferred to the casting solution for full impregnation; the impregnated base membrane is fixed on a polytetrafluoroethylene plate, and then the base membrane is coated by scraping, and then placed in an oven to dry for 5-7 hours to obtain an anion exchange membrane with a thickness of 120-200 μm.

After reflux, toluene and water are removed by azeotropic distillation. The reaction is then carried out at 180°C for 12 hours to obtain a viscous polymerization solution. After cooling to room temperature, DMSO is added for dilution, the solid is filtered off, and the solution is poured into water at 70°C to obtain the polymer product. The polymer product is then vacuum-dried at 120°C for 20–28 hours to obtain a PES-PPH-Pi polymer. The PES-PPH-Pi polymer is dissolved in DMSO, and iodomethane (twice the molar amount of amino groups in the PES-PPH-Pi polymer) is added. The mixture is stirred at room temperature for 6–8 hours, then precipitated in ethanol to obtain the polymer. After filtration, the polymer is vacuum-dried at 80°C for 24 hours to obtain the anion exchange membrane material.
