Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of chemical raw material recycling, and more specifically, relates to a continuous resource-based treatment system and method for photovoltaic fluoride-containing wastewater. Background Technology

[0002] The photovoltaic industry utilizes the photovoltaic effect, where sunlight shining on silicon materials generates electricity directly. It's a photoelectric conversion industry developed through the application of silicon materials, encompassing the production of high-purity polycrystalline silicon raw materials, solar cells, solar cell modules, and related production equipment. The production process includes texturing, alkaline washing, water washing, and acid washing. The alkaline washing step uses sodium hydroxide solution, generating a large amount of alkaline silicon-containing wastewater. The acid washing step uses hydrochloric acid and hydrofluoric acid etching, producing a large amount of acidic fluoride-containing wastewater. Existing wastewater defluorination methods include distillation, adsorption, ultraviolet light, lime methods, and calcium chloride methods, but these are difficult to industrialize due to various limitations.

[0003] Application No. 201610799160.6 proposes a method of evaporation followed by distillation to recover hydrofluoric acid. However, since hydrofluoric acid forms an azeotrope with water, its recovery requires almost complete evaporation of all water, resulting in enormous energy consumption. Application No. 202311206292.X proposes a method of flocculation and adsorption, but the adsorbents have small adsorption capacity, short lifespan, high cost, and generate a large amount of solid waste. Application No. 202410014006.8 proposes an online ultraviolet (UV) fluoride removal method, but UV light sources are expensive, and the UV method has low fluoride removal efficiency, making it difficult to meet effluent standards. Application No. 201610197407.7 proposes a lime method for fluoride removal, but the low solubility of lime leads to a time-consuming process, high operational difficulty, and low purity of recovered calcium fluoride. Application No. 201610463012.7 proposed using sodium hydroxide and calcium chloride to jointly remove fluoride and recover calcium fluoride. The calcium chloride method has a fast reaction rate and recovers calcium fluoride with high purity. However, after calcium chloride reacts with hydrofluoric acid to produce hydrochloric acid, the wastewater becomes more acidic with a pH < 1. At this pH value, the solubility of fluoride ions is high, making it difficult to precipitate completely, resulting in a low calcium fluoride yield. At the same time, a large amount of sodium hydroxide is required for neutralization, leading to a loss and making it difficult to realize industrialization.

[0004] In view of this, there is an urgent need to propose a continuous resource-based treatment system and method for photovoltaic fluoride-containing wastewater in order to solve the technical problem that existing defluorination technologies and processes are difficult to industrialize.

The pH of the reaction material in the secondary reaction flocculant 301 is 6.5, and the secondary reaction material is obtained.

[0106] The secondary reactants are fed into a secondary sedimentation discharge device. The solid precipitates in the secondary reactants are flocculated and settled from the secondary sedimentation discharge device 302 into the secondary washing leg 303 for thickening, and then discharged through the secondary screw discharge device 304 to obtain secondary sediments. The clear liquid in the secondary reactants overflows from the middle and upper part of the secondary sedimentation discharge device 302 to obtain secondary clear liquid. The secondary sediments are sent to a secondary solid-liquid separator 305 for filtration to obtain secondary filtrate and secondary calcium fluoride filter cake (secondary calcium fluoride filter cake: 112 g / h, purity 81.6%).

[0107] The secondary clarified liquid and the secondary filtrate are mixed and then discharged outside the boundary. The liquid resulting from the mixture of the secondary clarified liquid and the secondary filtrate contains Ca. 2+ Concentration 0 mg / L, F - Concentration 4.8 mg / L.

[0108] This comparative example uses a 30% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution for a two-stage defluorination reaction. Treating one ton of acidic fluoride-containing photovoltaic wastewater requires 120 kg of fresh 30% sodium hydroxide solution, which greatly increases the cost.

[0109] The various embodiments of the present invention have been described above. These descriptions are exemplary and not exhaustive, nor are they limited to the disclosed embodiments. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments.
