Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of wastewater treatment, and particularly relates to a method for removing thallium based on thallium-containing wastewater. BACKGROUND

[0002] Thallium (Tl) is a typical toxic heavy metal, which is accumulative and is one of the 13 priority metal pollutants recognized in the world. Thallium mainly causes toxic effects on the nervous system of human body, and the minimum lethal dose is 10-15 mg / kg. Thallium and thallium compounds also have mutagenic and carcinogenic effects. The toxic effect of thallium on human body is much stronger than that of lead, cadmium and mercury, and is close to that of arsenic. Thallium is often associated with iron, zinc, lead and other metal sulfide ores, and a large amount of thallium is produced and discharged in the process of steel smelting and non-ferrous metal smelting. In order to strengthen the control and management of thallium, in recent years, the state policy, standards and industry and local standards have further improved the requirements for thallium emission concentration, and the thallium emission standards of multiple industries and local industrial wastewater are 5 μg / L.

[0003] The existing thallium removal technology focuses on the adsorption of thallium in natural water such as surface water and simulated water, but the thallium form and thallium concentration and other water quality conditions are quite different from those of industrial wastewater, which makes it difficult for the existing adsorbent to adapt to the characteristics of high fluorine and chlorine and high thallium concentration in industrial wastewater. The commonly used thallium removal method in industry is oxidation precipitation. Because Tl usually exists in the form of Tl(I) in water, Tl(I) is difficult to be adsorbed by conventional materials and does not form precipitable hydroxide, and it is more difficult to remove than Tl(III). Therefore, an oxidizing agent is usually added to oxidize Tl(I) which is easily soluble in water into Tl(III), and Tl(III) generates hydroxide under alkaline conditions and can dehydrate to form Tl2O3 precipitate; however, when the wastewater contains a large amount of chloride ions, Tl(I) is oxidized to Tl(III), which rapidly forms a very stable complex [TlCl4 - ] with Cl - ] and is difficult to remove by precipitation, so the commonly used oxidation precipitation method is not suitable for wastewater with high chlorine and thallium. Sulfidation precipitation method forms Tl2S precipitate by adding sulfide, which is limited by solubility product. In theory, the thallium concentration in wastewater can be reduced to about 45 μg / L at most. The existing adsorbent is greatly affected by coexisting ions. Therefore, the above methods are difficult to meet the increasingly strict emission requirements, and new thallium removal technology needs to be developed urgently.

[0004] The Chinese patent application with the publication number CN115947436A discloses a method for removing thallium in lead-zinc smelting wastewater, which reduces the thallium concentration in smelting wastewater by preparing a thallium removal agent based on thiol, hydroxyl and carboxyl coordination groups and adding the thallium removal agent to the smelting wastewater, so as to achieve standard discharge. The Chinese patent application with the publication number CN105254075A discloses a heavy metal capturing agent and a method for removing thallium from sintering desulfurization wastewater, which removes thallium in desulfurization wastewater by coagulation, adding a capturing agent and flocculation. Although the above patent applications achieve the removal of thallium, the initial thallium concentration of the above patent applications is low, and they do not process thallium with higher concentration. Moreover, the above patent applications do not achieve deep removal of thallium in the presence of a large amount of chloride ions and thallium ions.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a method for removing thallium based on wastewater containing chlorine and thallium, so as to solve or at least alleviate the technical defect of how to deeply remove thallium in the presence of a large amount of chloride ions and thallium ions with high thallium ion concentration. SUMMARY

[0006] The main purpose of the present application is to provide a method for removing thallium based on wastewater containing chlorine and thallium, aiming to solve or at least alleviate the technical problem of how to deeply remove thallium in the presence of a large amount of chloride ions and thallium ions with high thallium ion concentration.

[0007] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present application provides a method for removing thallium based on wastewater containing chlorine and thallium, comprising the steps of:

[0008] S1, providing wastewater containing chlorine and thallium to be treated;

[0009] S2, mixing the wastewater containing chlorine and thallium with a thallium removal agent to obtain a first treatment liquid; the thallium removal agent comprises polysulfide;

[0010] S3, mixing the first treatment liquid with a multi-effect auxiliary agent to obtain a second treatment liquid; the multi-effect auxiliary agent comprises a first flocculant and a manganese salt;

[0011] S4, mixing a second flocculant into the second treatment liquid and standing to obtain a third treatment liquid;

[0012] S5, performing solid-liquid separation treatment on the third treatment liquid to obtain a thallium-containing precipitate and a thallium removal separation liquid.

[0013] Further, the pH of the wastewater containing chlorine and thallium is greater than 11.

[0014] Further, the wastewater containing chlorine and thallium contains chlorine elements and thallium elements, the concentration of the chlorine elements is 5-200 g / L, and the concentration of the thallium elements is 5 ug / L-20 mg / L.

[0015] Further, the pH of the first treatment liquid is not less than 9.

[0016] Further, the mass-volume ratio of the polysulfide and the chlorinated and thallium-containing wastewater is 4-10 g / L.

[0017] Further, the thallium removal agent further comprises sodium sulfide and potassium sulfide; the mass ratio of the polysulfide, the sodium sulfide and the potassium sulfide is 50-1000:0.1-10:0.1-10; and the polysulfide comprises calcium polysulfide.

[0018] Further, the mass ratio of the first flocculant and the polysulfide is 1:1-8; and the mass ratio of the first flocculant and the manganese salt is 200:0.01-10.

[0019] Further, the first flocculant comprises one or more of polyaluminum ferric sulfate, polyaluminum ferric silicate, polyaluminum silicate sulfate, polyferric sulfate and polyaluminum chloride.

[0020] Further, the manganese salt comprises one or more of manganese sulfate, manganese chloride and manganese nitrate.

[0021] Further, the mass-volume ratio of the second flocculant and the chlorinated and thallium-containing wastewater is 0.01-0.1 g / L.

[0022] The second flocculant comprises one or more of anionic polyacrylamide, cationic polyacrylamide and neutral polyacrylamide.

[0023] The main technical principle of the present application comprises: when thallium is removed by oxidation, Tl(III) formed in the high-chlorine wastewater is easy to form a stable complex [TlCl4 - ] with Cl - in the solution and is difficult to remove in the form of precipitation. In the present application, polysulfide (S x 2- x=2-7, average 5) will undergo disproportionation to generate sulfide ions (S 2- ) and thiosulfate ions (S2O3 2- )(S5 2- +3OH - →S2O3 2- +3HS - ); the present application first adds polysulfide, sulfide ions (S 2- ) react with Tl(I) to generate Tl2S which is difficult to dissolve in water, and thiosulfate ions (S2O3 2- ) have strong reducing properties and can reduce Tl(III) and its [TlCl4 - ] complex to Tl(I), avoiding the influence of Cl - ; the Tl(I) produced by reduction further reacts with sulfide ions (S 2-) to generate Tl2S which is hardly soluble in water, thereby realizing preliminary removal of thallium. Then, a multi-effect additive is added, and a first flocculating agent in the multi-effect additive can generate hydroxide by chemical reaction, and the hydroxide can neutralize positive colloidal particles and surface active substances in water to adsorb suspended matters, thereby forming flocculation and precipitation; Mn(OH)2 generated by manganese ions under alkaline conditions is a good adsorbent and can adsorb the remaining trace thallium. A second flocculating agent can gather small suspended matters by high molecular adsorption, bridging and electric neutralization to form large flocculation, thereby improving the settling speed of the flocculation and the solid-liquid separation speed.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the present application has at least the following advantages:

[0025] 1. The present application can treat high-chlorine and high-thallium wastewater by sequentially adding a thallium removal agent containing polysulfide, a multi-effect additive containing a first flocculating agent and manganese salt, and finally adding a second flocculating agent, so that thallium is almost completely precipitated from the solution; then, solid-liquid separation is performed on the solid-liquid mixture, thereby realizing deep purification and removal of thallium, and reducing the residue of the thallium removal agent.

[0026] 2. The present application has excellent thallium removal effect on thallium-containing wastewater with high thallium concentration; after treatment by precipitation, oxidation and flocculation, the thallium concentration can be reduced to below 5ug / L, meeting the Inorganic Chemical Industry Pollutant Discharge Standard (GB31573-2015) and realizing discharge in compliance with the standard.

[0027] 3. The present application is based on the deep thallium removal method for industrial wastewater by chemical precipitation, and when treating metallurgical wastewater containing a large amount of heavy metal ions, the removal effect on thallium is still excellent, and the reaction process is not affected by coexisting ions such as chloride ions.

[0046] In the embodiment, the process of mixing the wastewater containing chlorine and thallium and the thallium removal agent can include: obtaining the thallium removal agent, and then mixing the thallium removal agent and the wastewater containing chlorine and thallium (the mixing time can be 5-8 min or 5-10 min), to obtain the first treatment liquid.

[0058] The following is a specific example of the present application:

[0059] Example 1

[0060] The sintering machine electric field dust of a steel plant is measured to have a washing dust water with a pH of 9.6, a total thallium concentration of 9.58 mg / L in the washing dust water, and a chlorine concentration of 152140 mg / L, and the component content is shown in Table 1.

[0062] Element Content (mg / L) Element Content (mg / L) Na 38540 Cd 109.9 K 104260 Mg 29.64 Cl 152140 Li 22.75 Ca 2542.78 Tl 9.58 Cu 447.65 Pb 7.885 Si 357.54 SO4 2- ]]> 5610 Zn 328.3 NH4 - ]]> 3190

[0063] The washing dust water is treated by removing thallium, and the specific treatment process is as follows:

[0064] Step 1: 20 mL of washing dust water is taken, NaOH solid is added thereto, and stirring is conducted at a speed of 200 r / min to uniformly mix the washing dust water to adjust the pH of the washing dust water to 12.

[0065] Step 2: 600 mL of a calcium polysulfide solution with a mass fraction of 29%, 1 g of sodium sulfide, and 1 g of potassium sulfide are taken, the sodium sulfide and the potassium sulfide are dissolved in the calcium polysulfide solution, and after stirring to completely dissolve, a thallium-removing agent (denoted as a first additional liquid) is configured.

[0066] 0.4 mL of the first additional liquid is added to the washing dust water after the pH is adjusted, and then stirring is continuously conducted at a speed of 200 r / min for 5 min to obtain a first treatment liquid, and the pH of the first treatment liquid is 12.4.

[0071] Step 5: Perform solid-liquid separation on the third treatment liquid, collect the thallium-containing precipitate and the thallium removal separation liquid, detect the concentration of thallium in the thallium removal separation liquid by an inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer, and the results are shown in Table 2; analyze the thallium phase in the thallium-containing precipitate by XRD, and the results are shown in Table 2. Figure 1

[0072] Table 2: Thallium concentration before and after reaction and thallium removal rate

[0073]

[0074] The above results show that after about 15 min of treatment, the ash washing water concentration is reduced from 9.58 mg / L to 1.1 ug / L, which is lower than the emission limit of 5 ug / L in multiple industries and localities; XRD analysis shows that thallium mainly exists in the form of Tl2S in the precipitate.

[0078] In the effluent of the present comparative example, the concentration of thallium is 5.91 mg / L, which is much higher than 5 ug / L, and cannot achieve the standard discharge, as shown in Table 3.

[0090] In this analytical example, the experimental results are as follows: Figure 2 As shown (corresponding) Figure 2 (The proportion of additives on the horizontal axis); Raman analysis was used to analyze thallium-containing precipitates, such as... Figure 3 As shown.

[0091] The results show that both the second and first additive solutions in this analysis exhibit good thallium removal performance under the aforementioned ratios, with effluent concentrations lower than the emission limits of 5 μg / L for multiple industries and regions. Specifically, the volume ratios of the second and first additive solutions are 0.3:1, 0.4:1, 0.5:1, 0.6:1, 0.7:1, and 0.8:1, corresponding to thallium concentrations in the thallium-removed separation solutions of 2.97 μg / L, 2.83 μg / L, 1.89 μg / L, 2.74 μg / L, 1.53 μg / L, and 0.69 μg / L, respectively.

Figure 3 The ratios 1:0.5 and 0.6:1 (corresponding to...) Figure 3 Taking the ratio of 1:0.6 as an example, Raman spectral analysis of thallium-containing precipitates revealed that: at ~152 cm⁻¹ -1 ~218cm -1 ~473cm -1The characteristic peak of elemental sulfur appeared, indicating that elemental sulfur was generated in the precipitate; thus, the precipitation of sulfur was achieved while ensuring the removal of thallium.

[0093] Analysis Example 2

[0094] In this analysis example, the amount of the first additional liquid was adjusted to 0.10 mL, 0.16 mL and 0.36 mL respectively compared with example 1; and the volume ratio of the second additional liquid to the first additional liquid was controlled to be 0.5:1 by adjusting the amount of the second additional liquid; and other conditions were the same as those in example 1.

[0095] In this analysis example, with the increase of the amount of the thallium removal agent (the first additional liquid), the effluent concentration of thallium ions gradually decreased; specifically, when the amount of the first additional liquid was 0.10 mL, 0.16 mL and 0.36 mL, the thallium concentration in the thallium removal and separation liquid was 647.8 μg / L, 208.73 μg / L and 4.7 μg / L respectively.

[0096] Analysis Example 3

[0097] In this analysis example, the amount of the first additional liquid was adjusted to 0.24 mL and the amount of the second additional liquid was adjusted to 0.12 mL compared with example 1; and the pH of the ash washing water was adjusted to 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12 respectively by using sodium hydroxide solid and dilute nitric acid; and the pH of the first treatment liquid was also adjusted to about 12; and other conditions were the same as those in example 1.

[0098] In this analysis example, the results showed that the pH had a significant effect on the removal of thallium. Specifically, when the pH of the ash washing water was adjusted to 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12, the thallium concentration in the thallium removal and separation liquid was 2357 μg / L, 2043 μg / L, 2402 μg / L, 2606 μg / L, 3518 μg / L, 2566 μg / L and 175 μg / L respectively.
