Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of wastewater treatment and crystallization kinetics, and particularly relates to a method for predicting calcium sulfate-induced crystallization kinetics in wastewater. Background Art
[0002] The statements herein merely provide background information related to the present invention and do not necessarily constitute prior art.
[0003] The treatment of high-salinity wastewater and desulfurization wastewater is a huge challenge in achieving zero discharge of industrial wastewater. The former mainly comes from seawater concentration and desalination, industrial brine discharge and wastewater reuse, while the latter is the most difficult type of wastewater to treat in coal-fired power plants. The ions contained in these two types of wastewater are mainly Na + , K + , Ca 2+ Mg 2+ , Cl - 、SO4 2- Due to its high hardness and high salt content, scaling is very likely to occur when treating such wastewater. In order to avoid equipment damage and thus economic losses, the scaling factors are often controlled at a low level in advance by pre-treating the raw water.
[0004] Using the induced crystallization method to remove calcium sulfate from saline wastewater in advance can significantly increase the hardness removal rate and reduce the cost of softening agent addition. Induced crystallization strengthens the crystallization process by adding crystal seeds, and the thermodynamic driving force promotes the Ca in the solution to 2+ and SO4 2- Mass transfer is constantly taking place at the solid-liquid interface. Since the energy required for the dissolved ions to react with existing crystals is much lower than the energy required to produce new crystals, especially when the seed dosage is high, the induced crystallization reaction occurs very quickly, making it difficult to capture its kinetic changes. In addition, in the actual wastewater treatment process, water quality indicators often fluctuate within a certain range. In order to cope with the adjustment of on-site process parameters, a large number of experiments are required to accumulate calcium sulfate crystallization kinetic data, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the accuracy is relatively poor. Summary of the invention

By measuring the quality of the raw water, the change data of the solution concentration over time within a certain supersaturation range can be calculated, which can effectively reduce the number of pre-experiments and provide theoretical guidance for the actual crystallization process. Specifically, the following steps are included:
[0043] Step 1: Detect and obtain water quality indicators, and calculate the solution supersaturation S and initial chemical potential driving force Δμ0 through the water quality indicators.
[0044] In step 1, the water quality indicators detected include: the ion product and solubility product constant of calcium sulfate dihydrate in the solution, Ca 2+ and SO42- Ion activity in bulk solution and Ca 2+ and SO4 2- Ion activity in saturated solution and The solution supersaturation S and the initial chemical potential driving force Δμ0 were calculated using the extended Debye-Hückel model.
[0045] Specifically, in step 1, the calculation formula of the solution supersaturation S is:
[0046]
[0047] Among them, IAP and K sp They represent the ion product and solubility product constants of calcium sulfate dihydrate in solution respectively.

[0051] Step 2: Calculate the values of the first saturation parameter a, the second saturation parameter b, and the third saturation parameter c according to the supersaturation;
[0052] Specifically, in step 2, the calculation formulas for parameters a, b, and c are:
[0053] a=0.0021S 2 +0.00504S―0.00154; (3)
[0054] b=―0.17504S 2 +1.4570S-1.77625; (4)

[0056] Here, S represents the supersaturation of the solution.
[0057] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the supersaturation S value is between 1.2 and 8.5.
[0058] Step 3: According to the parameters a, b, c and the chemical potential driving force Δμ, the calcium ion concentration values at different crystallization times are calculated using the following formula:
[0059]
[0060] Where V represents the volume of the solution and c1 represents Ca 2+ concentration, T represents the thermodynamic temperature during crystallization, R represents the ideal gas constant, and Δμ represents the chemical potential driving force. The calculation formula is:
[0061]
[0062] Specifically, in this embodiment, formula (6) is obtained by extending the Debye-Hückel model. According to the extended Debye-Hückel model, the ion activity coefficient of each component in the solution is:
