Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of sewage treatment, in particular to a method for treating steel cold rolling pickling sewage. Background Art

[0002] Steel cold rolling pickling wastewater is the waste liquid produced by steel mills using sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid and other acidic liquids as cleaning agents for surface treatment in order to improve the surface quality of steel. With the vigorous development of my country's steel industry, the discharge of steel pickling wastewater has increased rapidly. Steel cold rolling pickling wastewater is rich in iron ions. Direct discharge will not only cause environmental pollution, but also waste resources. Summary of the invention

[0003] Purpose of the invention: In view of the above technical problems, the present invention proposes a method for treating steel cold rolling pickling wastewater.

[0004] The technical solutions adopted are as follows:

[0005] A method for treating steel cold rolling pickling wastewater is as follows:

[0006] S1: adding a surfactant to a mixed solution of cyclohexane and ethylene glycol to obtain solution A, dividing solution A into two parts, adding a precipitant to one part to obtain solution B, and adding steel cold rolling pickling wastewater and a morphology control agent to the other part to obtain solution C;

[0007] S2: Mixing solution B and solution C to obtain solution D;

[0008] S3: transferring solution D to a sealed autoclave, collecting the product after the reaction, washing it, and drying it to obtain a precursor;

[0009] S4: Finally, the precursor is calcined.

[0010] Further, the surfactant includes Triton X-100 and sodium lauryl sulfate;

[0011] The mass ratio of Triton X-100 to sodium dodecyl sulfate is 1-5:1-5.

[0012] Furthermore, the mass ratio of cyclohexane to ethylene glycol is 1-10:1-10.

[0013] Furthermore, the precipitant is any one or more combinations of urea, ammonia water, sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide.

[0014] Furthermore, the morphology control agent is urotropine quaternary ammonium salt.

[0015] Further, the preparation method of the urotropine quaternary ammonium salt is as follows:

[0016] Under nitrogen protection, add urotropine and sodium bicarbonate to methanol and mix well, then add halogenated hydrocarbon, heat the reaction solution to 50-60°C and react for 5-10 hours, return to room temperature and collect the product, and then purify it with fresh methanol.

[0017] Furthermore, the carbon number of the halogenated hydrocarbon is ≥4.

[0018] Furthermore, the molar ratio of hexamethylenetetramine to halogenated hydrocarbon is 1:1-2.

[0019] Furthermore, in S3, the reaction temperature is 120-140° C., and the reaction time is 5-10 h.

[0020] Furthermore, in S4, the calcination temperature is 400-600° C., and the calcination time is 1-5 h.

[0021] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0022] The present invention provides a method for treating steel cold rolling pickling wastewater, which uses a microemulsion method to recover iron ions in the wastewater to prepare iron oxide particles with special morphology, thereby avoiding direct discharge to cause heavy metal pollution and turning waste into treasure to achieve resource recycling.

[0023] Surfactants have an important influence on the particle size and morphology of microemulsions and their performance. The present invention controls the composition of surfactants to affect the size and shape of micelles, thereby achieving the synthesis of nanometer-level particles with uniform particle size.

[0024] At present, there are reports that quaternary ammonium salt compounds guide the synthesis of metal oxides with special morphologies. Inspired by this, the inventors tried to make urotropine into quaternary ammonium salts and use urotropine to control the morphology of the reaction products. Unexpectedly, iron oxide particles with a petal-like microscopic morphology were obtained. Moreover, tests have verified that the iron oxide particles prepared by the present invention have good photocatalytic properties and can be used for photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants.
