[0024] In combination Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the acetate fiber production reactor bottom waste liquid with COD greater than 2000 ppm, salt content greater than 10000 ppm, and pH value of 2 is collected in the wastewater pool for harmless recovery treatment, including the following steps:

[0025] S1, filtration: using silicon carbide ceramic microfiltration membrane to directly filter the reactor bottom waste liquid without adjusting the pH value, avoiding acetate fiber seepage which causes the inability to use silicon carbide ceramic microfiltration membrane for filtration. After filtration, clear liquid is obtained. Every 10-100 min, the silicon carbide ceramic microfiltration membrane is back-flushed with water for 5-60 s, and back-flushed waste liquid is obtained. The back-flushed waste liquid is pressure-filtered to obtain permeate and waste residue. The permeate enters the silicon carbide ceramic microfiltration membrane again with the reactor bottom waste liquid, and the waste residue is treated as solid waste. The pore size of the silicon carbide ceramic microfiltration membrane is 0.04-0.5 μm, the inlet water pressure of the reactor bottom waste liquid is controlled below 0.12 MPa, and the membrane pressure difference of the silicon carbide ceramic microfiltration membrane is controlled below 0.2 MPa.

The concentration of magnesium sulfate in the reverse osmosis concentrated water is greater than 10%.

[0027] S3, evaporation recovery: using an evaporator to evaporate and crystallize the reverse osmosis concentrated water obtained in step S2 to obtain magnesium sulfate solids. The evaporator is connected with a condensing device and a condensate recovery device, and the condensate is collected and reused.

[0028] S4, biochemical treatment: using one or more of anaerobic treatment, hydrolysis acidification treatment, anoxic treatment, and aerobic treatment to treat the product water obtained in step S2.

[0029] The order of steps S3 and S4 can be interchanged or performed simultaneously.

[0030] Take 4 portions of the wastewater sample after biochemical treatment, and test the chemical oxygen demand, ammonia nitrogen content, total phosphorus content, and dissolved solids according to the dichromate method (H828-2017), Nash reagent spectrophotometry (HJ 535-2009), ammonium molybdate spectrophotometry (GB / T 11893-1989), and urban wastewater quality standard test method (CJ / T 51-2018), respectively. The test results are: chemical oxygen demand 14 mg / L, ammonia nitrogen content 0.40 mg / L, total phosphorus content 0.13 mg / L, and dissolved solids 191 mg / L, which meets the requirements of agricultural irrigation water and can be directly discharged or used for agricultural irrigation.
