Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of waste salt treatment, and relates to a method and a system for treating waste salt produced by polycarbonate. Background Art

[0002] Polycarbonate, also known as PC plastic, is a high molecular polymer containing carbonate groups in the molecular chain. Polycarbonate has high strength and elastic modulus, high impact strength and fatigue resistance, and is mainly used in glass assembly industry, automobile industry, electronics industry and electrical appliance industry.

[0003] The production methods of polycarbonate mainly include the transesterification method and the phosgene direct method. When polycarbonate is prepared by the phosgene direct method, the waste salt produced by the polymerization unit contains certain organic impurities, and the waste salt needs to be treated before it can be recycled. At present, the main treatment methods for waste salt in polycarbonate production are wet and dry. Among them, wet treatment refers to first dissolving the waste salt in water, and degrading organic pollutants through deep organic oxidation technology in the field of water treatment to achieve harmlessness of waste salt. Among them, commonly used organic oxidation technologies include advanced oxidation, wet catalytic oxidation and hydrothermal oxidation technology. Dry treatment includes incineration, high-temperature hot melting, organic carbonization pyrolysis, etc.

[0004] However, the wet treatment has harsh reaction conditions, high equipment requirements, and high operating costs. It cannot be applied to the treatment of organic wastewater with ultra-high concentration brine, which limits its widespread application. The temperature required for incineration and high-temperature hot melting methods is between 800-1200°C, so the energy required is high and more secondary pollutants are generated, which poses great obstacles in practical applications. The carbonization pyrolysis method of organic matter started late and is now gradually being promoted. Public information shows that the mainstream technology control temperature of this method in the market is 200-500°C, and this temperature range is exactly the favorable condition for the pyrolysis of chlorine- or bromine-containing organic matter to produce dioxins, which are extremely toxic, difficult to degrade, and difficult to remove pollutants. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method and system for treating waste salt produced in polycarbonate production, so as to solve the problem that the existing treatment method cannot effectively treat waste salt produced in polycarbonate production.

[0006] To achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions: The present application provides a method for treating waste salt from polycarbonate production, the method comprising: S01: The sealed, nitrogen-filled waste salt from the production of polycarbonate is transported to a low-temperature pyrolysis device, and subjected to microwave heating treatment at a temperature of 150-190°C for 5-10 minutes to obtain treated salt and low-temperature decomposition waste gas.

[0007] In the present application, the waste salt from polycarbonate production refers to the solid sodium chloride by-product produced by the phosgene method polycarbonate polymerization unit, which meets the first-class quality standard of "Polycarbonate By-product Sodium Chloride" (T / CPCIF 0080-2020) issued by the China Petroleum and Chemical Industry Federation as shown in Table 1, but cannot meet the TOC limit requirements of "Perfluorinated Ion Exchange Membrane for Chlor-alkali Industry-Application Specification" (GB / T 30297-2013) shown in Table 2. Therefore, it cannot be used as raw salt in the chlor-alkali industry.

[0008] Table 1: Grade 1 quality standard of "Sodium Chloride as By-product of Polycarbonate" (T / CPCIF 0080-2020) Table 2: Requirements for TOC limits in the "Perfluorinated Ion Exchange Membranes for Chlor-Alkali Industry - Application Specifications" (GB / T 30297-2013) The waste salt from the production of polycarbonate is stored in a closed storage tank filled with nitrogen, and the pressure is maintained at a slightly positive pressure state of less than or equal to 6.9 kPa, so as to facilitate the smooth transportation of the waste salt from the production of polycarbonate. The waste salt from the production of polycarbonate is transported to the low-temperature pyrolysis device through a conveyor. The low-temperature pyrolysis device is equipped with a microwave generator, which can heat the temperature in the low-temperature pyrolysis device to 150-190°C, so that most of the volatile organic matter in the waste salt from the production of polycarbonate is decomposed through thermal decomposition to form low-temperature decomposition waste gas, and the decomposed waste salt from the production of polycarbonate forms treated salt. The low-temperature decomposition waste gas is introduced into the activated carbon injector through a low-temperature induced draft fan, and after being adsorbed by the activated carbon, it is sent to the bag filter for dust removal and then discharged in compliance with the standards.

[0009] Furthermore, in order to improve the collection efficiency of low-temperature decomposition waste gas, the low-temperature pyrolysis device is maintained at a slightly negative pressure state of -1.5-2.0 kPa.

[0010] In addition, a screw conveyor is installed in the low-temperature pyrolysis device to achieve pyrolysis while transporting the waste salt from the production of polycarbonate. Preferably, the microwave generators are distributed on both sides of the screw conveyor to ensure uniform heating temperature in the low-temperature pyrolysis device.

[0011] S02: The treated salt is transported to a high-temperature pyrolysis device and subjected to microwave heating treatment at a temperature of 550-600° C. for 5-10 minutes to obtain solid sodium chloride salt and high-temperature decomposition waste gas.

[0012] The treated salt is transported to a high-temperature pyrolysis device, which is equipped with a microwave generator and a screw conveyor. The microwave generator can heat the temperature in the high-temperature pyrolysis device to 550-600°C, so that most of the non-volatile organic matter in the treated salt is thermally decomposed to form high-temperature decomposition waste gas, and the decomposed treated salt forms solid sodium chloride salt. The TOC value of the solid sodium chloride salt is controlled within 25 mg / Kg, which meets the requirements of "Industrial Salt" (GB / T 5462-2015) and "Perfluorinated Ion Exchange Membrane for Chlor-Alkali Industry-Application Specification" (GB / T 30297-2013).

[0013] The high-temperature decomposition waste gas is introduced into the quench tower through a high-temperature induced draft fan for rapid cooling and cooling treatment, so that the temperature of the high-temperature decomposition waste gas is reduced to below 200°C, shortening the time of the high-temperature decomposition waste gas in the range of 200-500°C, reducing the secondary generation of dioxin waste gas, and recovering heat at the same time. In this application, the rapid cooling of the high-temperature decomposition waste gas is water rapid cooling, and water mist will be generated during the rapid cooling process. In order to prevent the water vapor entrained in the high-temperature decomposition waste gas after rapid cooling from hindering adsorption and dust removal, the high-temperature decomposition waste gas after rapid cooling is first defogged by a demister, and then adsorbed by activated carbon in an activated carbon injector and dusted by a bag filter before reaching the emission standard.

[0014] Similarly, in order to improve the collection efficiency of high-temperature decomposition waste gas and reduce the unorganized emission of highly toxic waste gas dioxins, the high-temperature pyrolysis device also maintains a slightly negative pressure state of -1.5-2.0kPa.

[0015] In the present application, the temperature control in the low-temperature pyrolysis device and the high-temperature pyrolysis device is achieved by adjusting the frequency of the microwave generator.

[0016] In addition, the present application also provides a system for treating waste salt from polycarbonate production, which includes a storage tank, a conveyor, a low-temperature pyrolysis device and a high-temperature pyrolysis device that are connected in sequence, the low-temperature pyrolysis device is connected to an activated carbon injector through a low-temperature induced draft fan, and the high-temperature pyrolysis device is connected to the activated carbon injector through a high-temperature induced draft fan, a quench cooler, and a demister in sequence, and the activated carbon injector is also connected to a bag dust collector.

[0017] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: (1) This method uses two-stage microwave pyrolysis methods, low-temperature pyrolysis and high-temperature pyrolysis, to control the pyrolysis temperature respectively, which not only reduces the generation of toxic waste gas and protects the ecological environment; but also realizes the complete purification and utilization of waste salt, thereby improving the pyrolysis efficiency.

[0018] (2) The rapid cooling treatment of high-temperature decomposition waste gas can shorten the time that the high-temperature decomposition waste gas is in the range of 200-500℃, reduce the secondary generation of dioxin waste gas, and at the same time recover heat and reduce the energy consumption of waste gas treatment.

[0027] Example 4 The present application provides a system for treating waste salt from polycarbonate production, the system comprising: a storage tank 1, a conveyor 2, a low-temperature pyrolysis device 3 and a high-temperature pyrolysis device 4 which are connected in sequence.
