Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of ferric phosphate wastewater treatment technology, specifically to a process and system for treating ferric phosphate wastewater. Background Technology
[0002] The commonly used production process for ferric phosphate is the co-precipitation method. It utilizes ferrous sulfate, hydrogen peroxide, diammonium hydrogen phosphate, and phosphoric acid to produce high-quality ferric phosphate through processes such as synthesis, first washing, aging, and second washing. During the production process, synthesis mother liquor, first washing water, aging mother liquor, and second washing water are generated, which combine to form ferric phosphate wastewater. The synthesis mother liquor is the saturated solution separated after the raw materials are synthesized in the ferric phosphate production process. The aging mother liquor is the saturated solution separated after the synthesized impurity phase ferric phosphate has undergone a constant temperature aging process. The washing water is an aqueous solution used for separation and impurity removal, which is a mixture of first washing water and second washing water.
[0003] Typically, when treating ferric phosphate wastewater, the synthesis mother liquor and the aging mother liquor are mixed, allowing the phosphorus (P) element in the aging mother liquor to act as a precipitant and precipitate the metal elements in the synthesis mother liquor. The first wash water and the second wash water are mixed, allowing the P element in the second wash water to act as a precipitant and precipitate the metal elements in the first wash water. After pretreatment, the two types of wastewater enter an RO system for concentration and desalination, forming pure water and a concentrated liquid. The concentrated liquid enters an MVR system for evaporation and concentration. During the evaporation and concentration process, byproducts ammonium sulfate and waste liquid are generated. The waste liquid contains a large amount of P element and impurities such as Ca, Mg, F, and COD, which affect the evaporation in the MVR system. Therefore, it enters a drum dryer for drying, forming a low-value dried material.
[0004] However, due to the increasingly poor quality of raw materials, the impurities and salt content of the synthesis mother liquor will increase, making it impossible for the aged mother liquor to effectively remove metal impurities such as Ca, Mg, Mn, and Fe from the synthesis mother liquor. After the mother liquor is pretreated, it enters the RO system and mixes with the excess P element in the wash water, forming a large amount of metal precipitates, which clogs the RO system, increases the load on the RO system, and results in poor treatment effect of ferric phosphate wastewater. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a solution that can effectively remove pollutants from wastewater while ensuring the smooth operation of the RO system. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of the technical problems existing in the background art, this application provides a treatment process and system for ferric phosphate wastewater, aiming to solve the technical problem of how to effectively remove pollutants from wastewater while ensuring the smooth operation of the RO system.

[0007] In the technical solution of this application embodiment, the synthesis mother liquor is divided into two parts, a first mother liquor and a second mother liquor, for processing.

On the other hand, in order to solve the problem that impurities and pollutants are not completely removed due to the first mother liquor not being treated by the RO system, the first mother liquor, the second mother liquor, and the wash water are treated and then merged into the wastewater and circulated back to the first mother liquor. The excess P in the wash water is used to further treat the synthesis mother liquor in the first mother liquor, thereby reducing the load on the RO system and effectively removing impurities and pollutants from the wastewater.

[0013] In this embodiment, under the specified P content, it is beneficial to reduce the risk of RO system blockage and to completely treat P element impurities in ferric phosphate wastewater.

[0015] In this embodiment, under the specified salt content, it is beneficial to reduce the risk of RO system blockage and to completely treat the salt impurities in the ferric phosphate wastewater.
[0016] In some embodiments, during the alkali pretreatment of the first mother liquor, the alkali used is lime water and / or ammonia water, and the pH value of the alkali treatment is 8-9.
[0017] In this embodiment, lime water can remove the P source in the first mother liquor, preventing P from accumulating into ammonium sulfate crystals; ammonia water can improve the utilization efficiency of the P source and reduce costs.
[0018] In some embodiments, during the alkali pretreatment of the second mother liquor, the alkali used is ammonia water, and the pH value of the alkali treatment is 8-9.

[0020] In some embodiments, the alkali used in the alkaline pretreatment of the wash water is ammonia water, and the pH value of the alkaline treatment is 8-9.
[0021] In this embodiment, ammonia can improve the utilization efficiency of the P source and reduce costs.
[0022] In some embodiments, the solid-liquid separation step includes, in sequence, plate and frame filter press filtration and sand filter tank filtration.
[0023] In this embodiment, solid-liquid separation can be fully achieved by using a filter press.

[0026] In the technical solution of this application embodiment, the ferric phosphate wastewater treatment system implements a ferric phosphate wastewater treatment process.

[0043] Typically, when treating ferric phosphate wastewater, the synthesis mother liquor and the aging mother liquor are mixed, allowing the phosphorus (P) element in the aging mother liquor to act as a precipitant and precipitate the metal elements in the synthesis mother liquor. The first wash water and the second wash water are mixed, allowing the P element in the second wash water to act as a precipitant and precipitate the metal elements in the first wash water. After pretreatment, the two types of wastewater enter an RO system for concentration, forming pure water and a concentrated liquid. The concentrated liquid enters an MVR system for evaporation and concentration. During the evaporation and concentration process, ammonium sulfate and waste liquid are generated as byproducts. The waste liquid contains a large amount of P element and impurities such as Ca, Mg, F, and COD, which affect the evaporation in the MVR system. Therefore, it enters a drum dryer for drying, forming a low-value dried material. However, due to the increasingly poor quality of raw materials, the impurities and salt content of the synthesis mother liquor increase, making it impossible for the aged mother liquor to effectively remove metallic impurities such as Ca, Mg, Mn, and Fe from the synthesis mother liquor. When the mother liquor mixture enters the RO system, it mixes with the excess P element in the wash water, forming a large amount of metal precipitates, which clogs the RO system, increases the load on the RO system, and results in poor treatment of ferric phosphate wastewater. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a solution that can effectively remove pollutants from wastewater while ensuring the smooth operation of the RO system.
[0044] To address the technical challenge of effectively removing pollutants from wastewater while ensuring the smooth operation of the RO system, this application provides a treatment process and system for ferric phosphate wastewater.
[0045] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a treatment process for ferric phosphate wastewater, comprising the following steps: alkali treatment of a first mother liquor, followed by solid-liquid separation to obtain a first filtrate; alkali treatment of a second mother liquor, followed by solid-liquid separation to obtain a second filtrate; alkali treatment of wash water, followed by solid-liquid separation to obtain a third filtrate; mixing the second and third filtrates for RO concentration to obtain a concentrate; mixing the concentrate with the first filtrate for MVR evaporation concentration, followed by solid-liquid separation to obtain waste liquid; and recycling the waste liquid back to the first mother liquor for recycling treatment; the ferric phosphate wastewater comprises a synthesis mother liquor, an aging mother liquor, and wash water; the first mother liquor is composed of the synthesis mother liquor and the waste liquid; and the second mother liquor is composed of the synthesis mother liquor and the aging mother liquor.
[0046] In the technical solution of this application embodiment, the synthesis mother liquor is divided into two parts for treatment: a first mother liquor and a second mother liquor. One part of the synthesis mother liquor is mixed with waste liquid to form the first mother liquor, and the other part of the synthesis mother liquor is mixed with aged mother liquor to form the second mother liquor. Since the first mother liquor does not need to be treated by the RO system, the amount of mother liquor treated by the RO system can be reduced, the impact of salt on the RO system can be reduced, and the load on the RO system can be reduced to avoid RO system blockage. On the other hand, in order to solve the problem of incomplete removal of impurities and pollutants due to the first mother liquor not being treated by the RO system, the first mother liquor, the second mother liquor, and the wash water are treated and then merged into the waste liquid and recycled back to the first mother liquor. The excess phosphorus in the wash water is concentrated to form a high-phosphorus waste liquid, which is then used to further treat the synthesis mother liquor in the first mother liquor. This can effectively remove impurities and pollutants from the ferric phosphate wastewater while reducing the load on the RO system. In this application, the necessity of not requiring the first mother liquor to be treated by the RO system is that the waste liquid has a high salt content, and if the waste liquid is reused in the first mother liquor and then enters the RO system for treatment, it will cause RO system blockage.
[0047] Synthetic mother liquor, aging mother liquor, and wash water are well-known terms used by those skilled in the art when conducting conventional production using the ferric phosphate coprecipitation method.

[0049] In this embodiment, the synthesis mother liquor has a high content of metallic impurities and high salt content, the aging mother liquor has a high content of phosphorus and high salt content, and the wash water has a low salt content but contains phosphorus. The Ca, Mg, Mn, Fe, and F impurities in the ferric phosphate wastewater can be removed by phosphorus, and the F and COD in the ferric phosphate wastewater can be removed by alkali treatment. By collecting and classifying the ferric phosphate wastewater in segments, it is beneficial to prepare the first mother liquor and the second mother liquor according to the treatment process of this application, and to utilize the wash water.
[0050] In some embodiments, the Ca content in the first mother liquor is 95-105 ppm, the Ca content in the second mother liquor is 8-12 ppm, and the Ca content in the wash water is 2-5 ppm.
[0051] In this embodiment, under the limited Ca content, it is beneficial to reduce the Ca ion content entering the MVR system, avoid clogging of the MVR system, and completely treat Ca element impurities in the ferric phosphate wastewater.

[0053] In this embodiment, under the specified P content, it is beneficial to reduce the risk of RO system blockage and to completely treat P element impurities in ferric phosphate wastewater.
[0054] In some embodiments, the salt content in the first mother liquor is 100,000-130,000 mg / L, the salt content in the second mother liquor is 50,000-60,000 mg / L, and the salt content in the washing water is 6,000-7,000 mg / L.
[0055] In this embodiment, under the specified salt content, it is beneficial to reduce the risk of RO system blockage and to completely treat the salt impurities in the ferric phosphate wastewater.
[0056] In some embodiments, during the alkali pretreatment of the first mother liquor, the alkali used is lime water and / or ammonia water, and the pH value of the alkali treatment is 8-9.
[0057] In this embodiment, lime water can precipitate and remove the P source and some impurity elements in the first mother liquor, preventing P from accumulating into ammonium sulfate crystals; adding ammonia water appropriately can increase the alkalinity, promote precipitation, improve the utilization efficiency of the P source, and reduce costs.
[0058] In some embodiments, during the alkali pretreatment of the second mother liquor, the alkali used is ammonia water, and the pH value of the alkali treatment is 8-9.
[0059] In this embodiment, ammonia can increase alkalinity, promote precipitation, improve the utilization efficiency of the P source, and reduce costs.
[0060] In some embodiments, the alkali used in the alkaline pretreatment of the wash water is ammonia water, and the pH value of the alkaline treatment is 8-9.
[0061] In this embodiment, ammonia can increase alkalinity, promote precipitation, improve the utilization efficiency of the P source, and reduce costs.
[0062] In some embodiments, the solid-liquid separation step includes, in sequence, plate and frame filter press filtration and sand filter tank filtration.
[0063] In this embodiment, solid-liquid separation can be fully achieved by using a filter press.

The impurity content in the synthesis mother liquor, aging mother liquor, and wash water is shown in Table 1.

[0075]
[0076] I. Processing Technology and System
[0077] Example 1
[0078] A ferric phosphate wastewater treatment system includes a first mother liquor treatment device 1, a second mother liquor treatment device 2, a wash water treatment device 3, an RO reverse osmosis device 4, an RO concentrate tank 5, and an MVR evaporator 6. The second mother liquor treatment device 2 and the wash water treatment device 3 respectively supply alkali-treated second mother liquor and alkali-treated wash water to the RO reverse osmosis device 4 through conveying pipelines. The first mother liquor treatment device 1 supplies alkali-treated first mother liquor to the RO concentrate tank 5 through conveying pipelines. The RO reverse osmosis device 4 is used to collect and concentrate the mixture of alkali-treated second mother liquor and alkali-treated wash water, and is connected to the RO concentrate tank 5 through conveying pipelines. The MVR evaporator 6 is connected to the RO concentrate tank 5 and the first mother liquor treatment device 1. The ferric phosphate wastewater treatment system is used to perform the ferric phosphate wastewater treatment process.
[0079] The first mother liquor treatment device 1 includes a first mother liquor tank, a first mother liquor pretreatment reaction tank, a plate and frame filter press, and a sand filter tank connected in sequence; the second mother liquor treatment device 2 includes a second mother liquor tank, a second mother liquor pretreatment reaction tank, a plate and frame filter press, a sand filter tank, and an ultrafiltration device connected in sequence; the washing water treatment device 3 includes a washing water tank, a washing water pretreatment reaction tank, a plate and frame filter press, a sand filter tank, and an ultrafiltration device connected in sequence; the MVR evaporation device 6 includes an MVR system, a centrifuge, and a waste liquid tank connected in sequence, the MVR system is connected to the RO concentrate tank 5, and the waste liquid tank is connected to the first mother liquor tank.
[0080] The process of treating ferric phosphate wastewater using the above system includes the following steps:
[0081] A portion of the synthetic mother liquor is used as the first mother liquor. After the pH is adjusted to 8.5 and chemically removed by a mixture of lime water and ammonia water in the pretreatment reaction tank of the first mother liquor, it enters the plate and frame filter press for mud-water separation. After the water produced by the plate and frame filter press is filtered by the sand filter tank, the water produced by the sand filter tank is used to obtain the first filtrate and is sent to the RO concentrate tank 5.
[0082] Another part of the synthetic mother liquor is combined with the aged mother liquor to form the second mother liquor. After the pH of the second mother liquor is adjusted to 8.5 by ammonia water and chemical impurities are removed in the pretreatment reaction tank, it enters the plate and frame filter press for mud-water separation. The water produced by the plate and frame filter press is filtered through a sand filter tank. The water produced by the sand filter tank enters the ultrafiltration equipment for filtration. The ultrafiltration water is the second filtrate.
[0083] The wash water is adjusted to pH 8.5 with ammonia water and chemically removed in the pretreatment reaction tank before entering the plate and frame filter press for mud-water separation. The water produced by the plate and frame filter press is filtered through a sand filter tank. The water produced by the sand filter tank enters the ultrafiltration equipment for filtration. The ultrafiltration water produces the third filtrate.
[0084] The second and third filtrates are fed into the RO reverse osmosis unit 4 for processing to obtain concentrated liquid and pure water. The pure water is collected in the pure water tank and the concentrated liquid is collected in the RO concentrated liquid tank 5 and mixed with the first filtrate.
[0085] The concentrate is mixed with the first filtrate and then fed into the MVR system for evaporation and concentration to form the MVR concentrated mother liquor. The MVR concentrated mother liquor is then fed into a centrifuge for solid-liquid separation to form ammonium sulfate byproduct and waste liquid. The waste liquid is then returned to the first mother liquor for recycling.
[0086] In the first mother liquor, the ratio of synthetic mother liquor to waste liquor is 8:2. The aged mother liquor in the iron phosphate wastewater and the remaining synthetic mother liquor are combined to form the second mother liquor. The distribution of impurity content in the first and second mother liquors is shown in Table 2.

[0105] II. Testing Methods
[0106] 1. The contents of metal elements, P, COD, and TDS in the first and second filtrates were tested according to GB8978-1996, and the results are shown in Table 7.
[0107] Observe the RO blockage status to determine if there is a risk of blockage. III. Analysis of Test Results for Each Implementation Example
[0108] Table 7. Distribution of impurity content in the first and second filtrates.
[0109]
[0110] In Example 1, the metals and impurities such as F and COD in the wastewater can be effectively reduced, there is no risk of RO clogging, and the energy consumption of the MVR evaporation system is low.
[0111] In Example 2, the TDS of the first mother liquor was 72160 mg / L, and the salt content was low. If it directly entered the evaporation system, the energy consumption would be high. If the first filtrate directly entered the RO system, the load pressure of the RO system would be increased.
[0112] In Examples 3 and 4, the residual calcium ion content in the first filtrate is high, which will cause equipment blockage when it enters the MVR system later. The salt content in the first filtrate is low, and it will directly enter the MVR evaporation system, resulting in high energy consumption. If the first filtrate directly enters the RO system, it will increase the load pressure on the RO system.
[0113] In Example 5, the amount of synthetic mother liquor allocated to the first mother liquor was less, while the amount allocated to the second mother liquor was more, resulting in higher metal impurities and insufficient P content in the second mother liquor, which posed a risk of blockage to the RO system.
[0114] Five sets of examples reflect the impact of different mixing ratios on the removal rate of impurity elements and the degree of fouling and energy consumption reduction in the downstream RO and MVR processes. Through five sets of mixing examples with different ratios, it can be concluded that when the ratio of synthetic mother liquor to waste liquor in the first mother liquor is 8:2, impurity elements in the wastewater can be removed better, and the energy consumption of the MVR process can be reduced to the greatest extent while minimizing the risk of downstream RO fouling.
