Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of chemical waste salt, and more specifically to a method for the resource utilization of chemical waste salt. Background Technology

[0002] Acid / base driven processes are a key characteristic of the chemical industry. Typical industries such as coal chemical engineering, textile printing and dyeing, pesticides, and fine chemicals largely rely on aqueous solutions of acids or bases as a medium to promote the bonding and dissociation of atoms. Large quantities of waste salts and sludge are generated during the reaction stages, acid-base reactions, salting out, and distillation. Chemical waste salts are the most common and complex type of industrial waste salt. The composition of chemical waste salts is usually complex and highly soluble, making them easily carried by rainwater into soil, groundwater, and even rivers. Without effective treatment, this not only wastes valuable elements but also easily leads to soil salinization.

[0003] Chemical waste salt is mainly composed of sodium salt. Therefore, achieving large-scale and efficient utilization of sodium salt in waste salt and recycling it as a bulk chemical in the production process is the main way to fundamentally solve the problem of sodium-based waste salt. However, due to the differences in production processes and salt production stages of industrial wastewater in different fields, the ion-exchange membrane used in the core electrolysis process of alkali production is sensitive to the concentration of heavy metals in the influent, and the content needs to be reduced to below ppb level. For the resource utilization of waste salt for alkali production, in addition to removing organic matter, the high-ratio removal of heavy metals is a key technical issue.

[0004] Because ion-exchange membrane electrolyzers have high requirements for brine quality, lower metal cation content during brine treatment is more beneficial for protecting the ion exchange membrane and better reflects the economic efficiency of ion-exchange membrane electrolyzer operation. In traditional processes, waste brine still contains a certain amount of calcium and magnesium ions after secondary purification. These ions can form slightly soluble or insoluble substances, such as MgCO3, CaCO3, or CaSO4, with specific anionic groups in the electrolyzer, thus contaminating the ion-exchange membrane. During electrolysis, Ca... 2+ Mg 2+ Fe3 + Fe 2+ Ba 2+ Ni 2+ and Sr 2+ It will react with OH in the cathode chamber - The reaction produces insoluble precipitates, which either deposit in the electrolytic cell or mix into the catholyte, reducing the purity of the NaOH product. Furthermore, impurity cations can induce competitive reversible contamination; that is, impurity cations occupy the active sites of the ion-exchange membrane, competing with sodium ions for mass transfer, thus reducing the sodium ion transfer rate and overall resulting in a decrease in the NaOH yield at the cathode.

[0005] Although Ca 2+ Mg2+ and Fe 2+ Metal cations can have their content reduced in brine during the brine purification process through filtration, sedimentation, and adsorption, thereby reducing their interaction with OH groups migrating from the cathode of the electrolytic cell on or within the ion exchange membrane. - Precipitation is generated, thereby reducing the impact on the performance of the ion exchange membrane; SO4 is reduced through membrane-based denitrification. 2- The content of SO4 in salt water is reduced. 2- For Cl - The effect of discharge ensures the normal operation of caustic soda production via the ion-exchange membrane process; another part of the ions, such as I... - 、Sr 2+ There is no effective removal method for these substances in the brine refining process, leading to their accumulation in the brine system and affecting the economical operation of the ion-exchange membrane electrolyzer. In one brine refining process, Sr... 2+ In the post-brine reaction tank stage, it reacts with the refining agent Na2CO3 to generate SrCO3 precipitate, thereby reducing its content. However, due to Ca... 2+ With CO3 2- Reaction ability is greater than Sr 2+ With CO3 2- The reaction has strong reactivity. Adding the refining agent Na2CO3 in the post-brine reaction tank stage is mainly to remove Ca. 2+ .

[0006] During the secondary purification of brine, the ease with which chelating resins replace various cations is as follows: Cu 2+ Pb 2+ >Zn 2+ >Ca 2+ Cd 2+ >Mg 2+ Ni 2+ >Sr 2+ >Ba 2+ Na + Therefore, to remove these cations, either a multi-stage resin exchange process must be used, or the chelated resin must undergo an acid-base regeneration reaction. Resin regeneration begins with a mixture of 31% hydrochloric acid and pure water at a flow rate of 5.5 m³ / h. 3 / h and 21.8m 3 After being mixed to a concentration of 7% by mass using a controlled-flow valve, the mixture is fed into a resin tower for acid regeneration, thereby regenerating Ca. 2+ Type, Mg 2+ Type I resin converted to H + Type-3 resin, thereby converting the resin back into Na + Reusing the resin is a complex process.

[0007] However, unlike the target pollutants in secondary brine in conventional chlor-alkali industry, industrial waste salt mainly comes from byproducts of industrial wastewater desalination and end-of-pipe zero-discharge systems. Its heavy metal impurity ions are complex, and the target pollutants are different from the heavy metal pollutants in secondary brine in conventional chlor-alkali industry. Industrial waste salt mainly includes metals such as Al, Cr, Mn, Cu, and Ni. Resin adsorption treatment has problems such as multi-stage treatment with anion and cation exchange resins and low Cr ion removal rate. Summary of the Invention

The Ni in the filtrate obtained after one cation exchange resin exchange is... 2+ Cr 3+ and Cu 2+ <0.05ppm, Al 3+ and Mn 2+ The removal rate is as high as 98%, achieving zero discharge of wastewater. Therefore, by using the method described in this invention to treat chemical waste salt, the resulting product can be used as a raw material for the chlor-alkali process system, effectively promoting the conversion of waste salt into valuable products and realizing the resource utilization of chemical waste salt. Furthermore, the method described in this invention does not require the use of multi-stage cation exchange resins, making the process simple and efficient.
