Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of waste resource utilization technology, specifically to a method and system for the co-treatment of desulfurized gypsum and desulfurized wastewater. Background Technology
[0002] By the end of 2020, my country's total installed power generation capacity reached 2.2 billion kW, with thermal power accounting for 56.58% of the total. Thermal power units will continue to dominate the power generation industry for a considerable period. To meet SO2 emission standards, domestic coal-fired power units generally use lime-limestone slurry to desulfurize boiler flue gas. During SO2 absorption, the slurry generates a mixture primarily composed of calcium sulfate dihydrate; the dehydrated solid product is desulfurization gypsum. Simultaneously, this process uses limestone as the absorbent, and for every ton of sulfur dioxide removed, approximately 0.7 tons of carbon dioxide are emitted, increasing carbon emissions from power plants. According to data jointly compiled by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment and the Huajing Industry Research Institute, my country's desulfurization gypsum production in 2019 was 110-130 million tons. As a solid industrial waste, desulfurization gypsum is difficult to utilize directly within thermal power plants and requires suitable storage sites. This not only occupies large areas of land but also easily causes secondary pollution to the environment during the stockpiling process. Especially in economically underdeveloped areas, where gypsum consumption is low and desulfurization gypsum cannot be sold, the problem of stockpiling and waste is prominent. Large-scale, high-value disposal and utilization of desulfurization gypsum generated by thermal power units is one of the urgent problems to be solved in the environmental protection field of the power industry.
[0003] For some power companies that cannot effectively utilize desulfurization gypsum, the large amount of gypsum produced as a byproduct has become a heavy economic and environmental burden, with greater pressure to reduce carbon emissions, directly impacting the sustainable, high-quality, and healthy development of these companies. Therefore, developing new technologies and methods to offset the generation of desulfurization gypsum has become an urgent problem for some companies.
[0004] CN102583443B discloses a method for producing ammonium sulfate using ammonium bicarbonate as the main raw material. The method includes taking solid ammonium bicarbonate, process water, liquid ammonia, or gaseous ammonia, and adding them to a dissolving tank according to a metering ratio to prepare an ammonium carbonate solution. The ammonium carbonate solution is then pumped into a conversion reactor, and phosphogypsum is added in proportion to carry out the conversion reaction, controlling the density of the reaction slurry to be 1.35–1.40 g / cm³. The reaction slurry is pumped to a filter and filtered under vacuum to separate ammonium sulfate filtrate and calcium carbonate residue filter cake. The ammonium sulfate filtrate is then pumped into an evaporator for crystallization, and after crystallization, an ammonium sulfate slurry is obtained. Finally, the ammonium sulfate product is obtained through centrifugation and drying.
[0005] CN101284676B discloses a low-cost ammonium sulfate manufacturing process, characterized by: adding gypsum powder with a particle size of 150-200 mesh to ammonia water containing CO2 at a concentration of 180-200 droplets and a temperature of 40℃-50℃; heating to react the carbonated ammonia water with the gypsum; the pH of the mixed liquid during the reaction is 7.2-7.5; the reaction temperature is controlled at 50-55℃; and the reaction time is 1-2 hours; the mixed liquid after the reaction is filtered; the ammonium sulfate liquid from which CaCO3 is separated is cooled and crystallized; and the water is separated from the crystallized ammonium sulfate liquid to obtain the ammonium sulfate product, with calcium carbonate as a byproduct.
[0006] CN110697731A discloses a method for preparing ammonium sulfate and calcium carbonate from desulfurized gypsum. The method uses solid ammonium bicarbonate and high-concentration desulfurized gypsum slurry as reactants. After two-step reaction, a solid product with high calcium carbonate content and ammonium sulfate crystals can be obtained.
[0007] In the aforementioned domestic patents, calcium carbonate and ammonium sulfate are prepared using gypsum, phosphogypsum, or desulfurized gypsum as raw materials. Although these methods can solve the problem of desulfurized gypsum treatment to a certain extent, they offer limited utilization of desulfurized gypsum. Furthermore, the high energy consumption of ammonium sulfate evaporation and crystallization makes it difficult to achieve targeted resource utilization of desulfurized gypsum.

[0078] like Figure 1 The process flow shown describes a limestone-gypsum flue gas desulfurization system at a certain factory. The desulfurization wastewater is sent to a pretreatment unit, where excess ammonia (purchased externally) is added and reacted thoroughly to remove magnesium ions and heavy metals, yielding a solid-liquid reaction product. The addition of NH3 reacts with the magnesium ions in the wastewater. 2+ The ratio of the sum of the amounts of CaSO4 in the desulfurized gypsum to that in the NH3 is n(NH3): [n(Mg2+)]. 2+ The reaction ratio is 2.4:1:n(CaSO4) + n(CaSO4)] = 2.4:1. The reaction principle is as follows:
[0079] Mg 2+ +2NH3·H2O=Mg(OH)2+2NH4 +

The reaction principle is as follows:
[0081] CaSO4·2H2O+CO2+2NH3·H2O=CaCO3+(NH4)2SO4+3H2O
[0082] The solid-liquid products generated after the reaction enter the second solid-liquid unit for precipitation and pressure filtration. The resulting solid product is calcium carbonate, which is recycled to the desulfurization system for flue gas desulfurization. The resulting second liquid product mainly consists of ammonium sulfate, ammonium chloride, and sodium sulfate.

[0088] The solid and liquid products generated after the reaction enter the first solid-liquid separation unit for clarification, pressure filtration, and drying. The resulting solid product is high-purity magnesium hydroxide. The resulting first liquid product is thoroughly mixed with desulfurized gypsum and then introduced into a metathesis reactor. A certain amount of flue gas is introduced, and the desulfurized gypsum, residual ammonia, and carbon dioxide in the flue gas react fully under certain reaction conditions.

Calcium carbonate is recycled and used in the desulfurization system for flue gas desulfurization, reducing the need for ore mining. The high-purity magnesium hydroxide, ammonium sulfate, and ammonium chloride can be sold as products.
