Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a fluorine removal and hardness reduction system and method without the need for external chemicals, belonging to the technical field of water treatment. Background Art

[0002] High-salt fluoride-containing wastewater mainly comes from industrial fields such as chemical, metallurgical and mining. The water quality is often neutral to alkaline, with a serious excess of salt content (>3.5wt%) and high concentration of Na + , Ca 2+ Mg 2+ , Cl - 、SO4 2- Plasma. The fluoride concentration in wastewater is as high as 1000mg / L, which poses a serious threat to the environment and human health. Due to its strong environmental pollution and difficulty in treatment, it is a difficult problem that needs to be overcome in the field of environmental governance. Current regulations require that the fluoride content in most industrial wastewater must be strictly controlled below 1mg / L, and the salt content must not exceed 1000mg / L.

[0003] At present, the main treatment methods for fluoride-containing wastewater are: chemical precipitation, flocculation precipitation, adsorption, ion exchange, etc. The lime precipitation method is widely used because of its simple operation and relatively low cost, but this method has obvious limitations in practical applications. Theoretically, 1.47 mg of calcium oxide is required to remove 1 mg of fluoride, but in actual operation, due to the interference of complex components in the wastewater, the low fluoride removal efficiency of lime milk, and the high content of suspended matter, the amount of lime added often needs to exceed 50% of the theoretical value. This excessive addition not only leads to a significant increase in the cost of calcium hydroxide, but also causes a surge in the amount of sludge.

[0004] CN219950761U discloses a high-salt fluorine-containing wastewater defluorination and resource utilization treatment system. The system uses a calcium fluoride destabilization crystallizer after the primary membrane system and the secondary membrane system to defluorinate the high-salt fluorine-containing wastewater. The problem of calcium fluoride scaling and difficulty in resource utilization in the membrane assembly is solved by adding calcium fluoride seeds. However, a large amount of calcium fluoride seeds, scale inhibitors and softening agents still need to be purchased during the entire treatment process, the system operation cost is high, and the resource utilization rate is low.

[0005] In addition, high-salinity fluoride-containing wastewater also requires processes for calcium and magnesium ion removal and pH adjustment during treatment, which further increases the demand for acid, alkali, and softening agents, thereby increasing the overall operating cost and the system's processing load. After softening treatment, the significant increase in salt content in the water will also trigger additional salt treatment costs and the need for salt separation and crystallization treatment, all of which pose a challenge to the economic feasibility of the process. Summary of the invention

[0006] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides a fluorine removal and hardness reduction system and method that does not require the addition of external agents. The chemicals generated by the internal circulation of high-salt fluorine-containing wastewater treatment are reused as defluorinating agents and softening agents in the system's defluorinating and hardness reduction treatment, thus getting rid of the dependence on external agents, reducing investment and operating costs, and improving resource utilization and process economy.

[0024] See also Figure 2 The embodiment of the present invention also provides a method for removing fluorine and reducing hardness without adding external agents, comprising the following steps: S1, transporting the high-salt fluoride-containing wastewater to a calcium fluoride crystallizer 1 using self-produced calcium fluoride as a crystal seed, so that the high-salt fluoride-containing wastewater contacts calcium chloride to form calcium fluoride precipitation; S2, pre-treating the wastewater after calcium fluoride crystallization in the first high-density tank 2 and the second high-density tank 3 in order to remove calcium and magnesium ions in the wastewater respectively; S3, transporting the wastewater pre-treated in the first high-density tank 2 and the second high-density tank 3 to the filter device 4 for purification, and transporting the wastewater purified by the filter device 4 to the flat membrane module for concentration to obtain sodium chloride concentrated water and sodium sulfate concentrated water respectively; S4, concentrating the flat membrane assembly to obtain sodium chloride concentrated water and sodium sulfate concentrated water, respectively, and transporting them to the first ion exchanger 6 and the second ion exchanger 7, and removing residual calcium and magnesium ions in the sodium chloride concentrated water and the sodium sulfate concentrated water by ion exchange; S5, transporting the sodium chloride concentrated water and the sodium sulfate concentrated water treated by the first ion exchanger 6 and the second ion exchanger 7 to the first concentrated water tank 9 and the second concentrated water tank 10 respectively, diluting them by using the self-produced water in the water production tank 8 configured by the flat membrane assembly, and introducing them into the water inlet of the bipolar membrane device 11 after reaching a preset concentration, and converting the sodium chloride concentrated water and the sodium sulfate concentrated water into hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid and sodium hydroxide through the bipolar membrane device 11; S6, passing the hydrochloric acid effluent from the bipolar membrane device 11 into the first sludge tank 12 configured in the first high-density tank 2, so that the hydrochloric acid solution reacts with the calcium carbonate in the filter residue to generate a calcium chloride solution and release carbon dioxide gas; S7, introducing the calcium chloride solution into the calcium chloride crystallization device 15 to obtain a calcium chloride product, and the calcium chloride product is recycled to the calcium fluoride crystallizer 1; S8. The carbon dioxide released during the hydrochloric acid dissolving calcium carbonate is transported to the carbon dioxide collecting device 13 for enrichment, and then passed together with the sodium hydroxide effluent from the bipolar membrane device 11 into the sodium carbonate reaction device 14 to generate sodium carbonate. The generated sodium carbonate is used as a softener in the first high-density tank 2, and reacts with calcium ions in the wastewater to form calcium carbonate precipitation.

[0025] In this embodiment, a calcium fluoride crystallizer 1 is used to use the system's self-produced calcium fluoride as a seed crystal to further promote the formation of calcium fluoride precipitation. The waste liquid from the first high-density tank 2 is treated to remove fluorine and calcium hardness, and then flows into the second high-density tank 3 to react with the sodium hydroxide generated by the bipolar membrane device 11 to generate magnesium hydroxide precipitation, thereby reducing the hardness of the waste liquid. The sulfuric acid effluent from the bipolar membrane device 11 and the waste liquid filtered by the filter device 4 are mixed to adjust the pH. The regenerated water produced by the first ion exchanger 6 and the second ion exchanger 7 is circulated back to the raw water delivery pipeline 17.

[0026] The operating principle of the present invention is as follows: High-salt fluoride-containing wastewater first forms calcium fluoride precipitate after contacting calcium chloride in the calcium fluoride crystallizer 1. However, when the fluoride content in the raw water is low, the calcium fluoride crystallizer 1 is used to promote the formation of more calcium fluoride precipitate with self-produced calcium fluoride seeds. Then, after the step-by-step pretreatment in the first high-density tank 2 and the second high-density tank 3, the calcium and magnesium ions in the water are effectively removed. In this process, sludge precipitates of calcium carbonate and magnesium hydroxide are formed in the first sludge tank 12 and the second sludge tank 18, respectively. Subsequently, these precipitates are converted into solid sludge residues through the filter press process, achieving the initial separation of impurities.

[0027] The water quality of the high-salt fluoride-containing wastewater after pretreatment is significantly improved, and then it flows through the filter device 4 for further purification. Subsequently, the wastewater enters the flat membrane assembly for concentration, and sodium chloride concentrated water and sodium sulfate concentrated water are obtained respectively. In order to meet the water inlet requirements of the bipolar membrane device 11, the sodium chloride concentrated water and the sodium sulfate concentrated water are respectively sent to the first ion exchanger 6 and the second ion exchanger 7, and the residual calcium and magnesium ions therein are deeply removed by ion exchange technology. The sodium chloride concentrated water and the sodium sulfate concentrated water treated by the first ion exchanger 6 and the second ion exchanger 7 flow into the first concentrated water pool 9 and the second concentrated water pool 10 respectively, and are diluted by using the self-produced water in the water production pool 8. After reaching the appropriate concentration, they are introduced into the water inlet of the bipolar membrane device 11 respectively. The concentrated water is directly converted into acid and alkali products such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid and sodium hydroxide.

[0028] The hydrochloric acid effluent of the bipolar membrane device 11 is passed into the first sludge tank 12, so that the hydrochloric acid solution reacts with the calcium carbonate in the filter residue to generate a calcium chloride solution and release carbon dioxide gas. The calcium chloride solution is introduced into the calcium chloride crystallization device 15 to obtain a high-purity calcium chloride product. The calcium chloride product can be reused for the removal of fluoride in the system. That is, in the calcium fluoride crystallizer 1, the raw water contacts the calcium chloride to form a calcium fluoride precipitate, but when the fluorine content in the raw water is low, the calcium fluoride seed is used to promote the formation of more calcium fluoride precipitation, and the calcium fluoride product is obtained after the precipitation is dried.

[0029] The carbon dioxide released during the hydrochloric acid dissolving calcium carbonate is enriched by the carbon dioxide collection device 13, and then passed into the sodium carbonate reaction device 14 together with the sodium hydroxide outlet of the bipolar membrane device 11 to generate sodium carbonate. The generated sodium carbonate is used as a softener in the first high-density tank 2, reacting with calcium ions in the water to form calcium carbonate precipitate, thereby reducing the calcium hardness of the water. After the waste liquid of the first high-density tank 2 is treated to remove fluorine and calcium hardness, it flows into the second high-density tank 3, reacts with the sodium hydroxide generated by the bipolar membrane device 11 to generate magnesium hydroxide precipitate, further reducing the hardness of the raw water. The sulfuric acid outlet of the bipolar membrane device 11 is used to adjust the pH of the system. Among them, the regenerated water generated by the first ion exchanger 6 and the second ion exchanger 7 is circulated back into the system.

[0030] In summary, the sodium chloride concentrate and sodium sulfate concentrate concentrated by the flat membrane assembly of the present invention are diluted by using the self-produced water of the membrane system, and after reaching the appropriate concentration, they are directly transported to the water inlet of different bipolar membrane devices 11, and converted into acid and alkali products such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid and sodium hydroxide. In view of the high salt characteristics of the wastewater, the bipolar membrane device 11 can not only meet the self-circulation consumption of the internal process, but also have a large surplus of acid and alkali products. The concentration of these initially produced acid and alkali products is generally maintained in the range of 2 to 4 mol / L, and has a wide range of industrial application value. Not only can it be directly supplied to cooperative enterprises, but also the product concentration can be increased by deepening the concentration process to meet the market demand for high-purity acid and alkali products and promote efficient recycling of resources. After the raw water is pre-treated by the first high-density tank 2 and the second high-density tank 3, the precipitated sludge produced is filtered to form a solid sludge filter residue. The hydrochloric acid solution generated by the bipolar membrane device 11 reacts chemically with the calcium carbonate in the filter residue to dissolve the calcium carbonate into a calcium chloride solution and release carbon dioxide gas at the same time. Subsequently, the calcium chloride solution is introduced into the calcium chloride crystallization device 15, and finally a high-purity calcium chloride product is obtained. These calcium chloride products can be reused in the process system, and the dissolution equilibrium of calcium fluoride in water is affected by the common ion effect, so as to reduce its solubility and promote more calcium fluoride precipitation. When the fluorine content in the raw water is low, the formation of seed crystals is more difficult, resulting in the difficulty in the formation of calcium fluoride precipitation. In this case, the use of the calcium fluoride crystallizer 1 can further improve the efficiency of fluorine removal. Using the generated calcium fluoride precipitation as a seed crystal can effectively promote the formation of more calcium fluoride precipitation. The calcium fluoride seed crystal can not only reduce the calcium ion concentration required to start the precipitation reaction, but also reduce the fluorine concentration in the wastewater to a lower level. After being treated by the calcium fluoride crystallizer 1, the calcium fluoride product can be obtained after the precipitation is dried. In addition, the carbon dioxide released by calcium carbonate during the dissolution process is also fully utilized. The gas is collected and introduced into the alkali solution outlet of the bipolar membrane device 11, and reacts with sodium hydroxide to form sodium carbonate. The generated sodium carbonate can be used as a softener for the first high-density pool 2, reacting with calcium ions in water to form calcium carbonate precipitation, thereby reducing the hardness of water. After the treatment of defluorination and calcium hardness removal, the water flows into the second high-density pool 3. At this stage, magnesium hydroxide precipitation is generated by reacting with the sodium hydroxide generated by the system, thereby further reducing the hardness of the raw water. The sulfuric acid product generated by the bipolar membrane device 11 can be used for pH adjustment in the subsequent system to ensure stable water quality. After pretreatment, the water passes through the filter device 4 and the flat membrane assembly in turn, and the final output water quality meets the Class III standard of "GB3838-2002 Surface Water Environmental Quality Standard" or the standard of "GBT19923-2005 Urban Wastewater Recycling-Industrial Water Quality". At the same time, after the concentrated water passes through the ion exchanger to remove calcium and magnesium, it is reused together with part of the produced water as the raw material for the production of acid and alkali products in the bipolar membrane device.The regenerated water produced by the first ion exchanger 6 and the second ion exchanger 7 is circulated back into the system, which not only efficiently purifies the high-salt fluoride-containing wastewater, but also maximizes the utilization of resources, with good environmental and economic benefits. The calcium fluoride crystallizer 1 of the present invention utilizes a stable calcium fluoride seed reaction process to avoid the problem of reduced treatment efficiency caused by fluctuations in reaction conditions or changes in fluorine content; it can maintain efficient and stable operation under different working conditions, enhancing the reliability of the entire water treatment system; through the chemical reaction occurring in the internal cycle, products such as calcium chloride, calcium fluoride and sodium carbonate are generated and reused in the system, maximizing resource utilization, getting rid of the dependence on external softening agents, greatly reducing operating costs, and realizing the value-added of system by-products; using self-produced sodium carbonate and sodium hydroxide to remove calcium and magnesium ions respectively, achieving effective control of raw water hardness, ensuring that the hardness problem in the water treatment process is fully solved, improving the operating efficiency of subsequent process equipment, and reducing the risk of scaling; a large amount of remaining low-concentration acid and alkali products are directly supplied to other companies, reducing inventory costs; and the high-concentration products obtained after concentration can bring higher sales prices, further improving the overall economic benefits.
