Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of energy utilization, and specifically relates to a desulfurization wastewater treatment device and method. Background Art

[0002] Based on the current reality of raw coal blending in the coal-fired power industry and the increasingly stringent environmental protection requirements for ultra-clean flue gas emissions and wastewater reduction, new challenges have been raised for the efficient and stable operation of desulfurization facilities. Problems such as corrosion and wear, blockage, and excessive chloride ion concentration in desulfurization wastewater that is difficult to handle during the operation of the desulfurization system seriously restrict the efficient operation of the desulfurization device. When the limestone-gypsum wet flue gas desulfurization device is in operation, chlorides and heavy metals in the flue gas are continuously enriched in the absorption tower slurry, affecting the desulfurization efficiency, and thus producing desulfurization wastewater. The desulfurization wastewater produced has a high salt content and is difficult to handle, which has been a technical bottleneck that has plagued the environmental protection work of coal-fired power plants.

[0003] At present, conventional high-salt wastewater treatment methods use MVR, multi-effect evaporation or spray drying. The disadvantages of this method are as follows: 1) The wastewater evaporation process is energy-intensive; 2) The treated crystalline salt is still mixed salt and cannot be sold to obtain a certain degree of economy.

[0020] A method for treating desulfurization wastewater, comprising the following steps:

[0021] (I) Pretreatment stage: The desulfurization wastewater generated by the wet desulfurization system during the wet desulfurization process is sent to a triple tank, which is equipped with a neutralization tank, a sedimentation tank and a flocculation tank in sequence.

The desulfurization wastewater begins to crystallize and evaporate. The main component of the solid product produced during the crystallization and evaporation process is sodium chloride, which is discharged from the solid product outlet and collected.

[0027] The residence time of the desulfurization wastewater in the clarification tank is not less than 8 hours.

[0028] The operating temperature in the cooling device is set at -20 to 10°C.

[0031] The high-temperature gas may be air at the outlet of an air preheater, flue gas at the outlet of an induced draft fan, flue gas at the inlet of a dust collector, or a mixture of the flue gas at the outlet of an induced draft fan and the flue gas at the inlet of a dust collector.

[0032] The high temperature gas is used at a temperature between 130 and 300°C. The volume ratio of the high temperature gas to the desulfurized wastewater varies according to the evaporation form of the crystallization device and the high temperature gas use temperature, ranging from 6000 to 20000 Nm 3 / m 3 .

[0034] (1) By reusing the exhaust steam from the steam turbine, the steam used in the concentration and evaporation process of the desulfurization wastewater does not consume latent heat of vaporization, greatly reducing the energy consumption of the entire system.

[0035] (2) Compared with the traditional desulfurization wastewater treatment process, this device can realize the classification and recovery of impurities and greatly improve its added value. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0036] Figure 1 It is the process route diagram of the whole set of equipment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] The specific implementation of the present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and technical solutions.

[0038] Example

[0039] The desulfurization wastewater generated by the wet desulfurization system during the wet desulfurization process is sent to a triple box, which is equipped with a neutralization box, a sedimentation box and a flocculation box in sequence. The desulfurization wastewater is neutralized with lime acid and alkali (pH value is about 9), organic sulfur is detoxified with heavy metals (heavy metal desorption material uses TMT-15), and flocculation and precipitation (flocculant uses ferric chloride) before being sent to a clarifier. The residence time of the desulfurization wastewater in the clarifier is 8 hours; the desulfurization wastewater in the middle and lower part of the clarifier is sent to a multi-stage concentration and evaporation device (using a four-effect concentration and evaporation device), and part of the exhaust steam from the turbine is sent to a steam compression device (using a reciprocating steam compressor) for pressurization and heating to 80°C. The steam after pressurization and heating is divided into two streams, which are respectively sent to a multi-stage concentration and evaporation device and an absorption refrigeration device (using a steam absorption refrigeration device, and ammonia-water is selected as the refrigerant). One of the steam sent to the multi-stage concentration and evaporation device is indirectly heat exchanged with the desulfurization wastewater from the clarifier to achieve concentrated evaporation of the desulfurization wastewater. The concentrated desulfurization wastewater Water is sent to the cooling device (the cooling device adopts a partition cooler, and the temperature inside is controlled at -5°C), and the water vapor generated during the evaporation of the wastewater is sent to the wet desulfurization system as supplementary water; another stream of steam sent to the absorption refrigeration device provides a heat source for the precipitation of the refrigerant of the absorption refrigeration device, and the steam-water mixture generated by cooling the exhaust steam after the multi-stage concentration evaporation device and the absorption refrigeration device releases heat is sent to the condenser; the solid whose main component is sodium sulfate precipitated during the cooling process is filtered by a filtering device, naturally dried and collected, and the remaining liquid after filtration is sent to a crystallization device (using an OSLO evaporation crystallizer, and the volume ratio of 200°C hot air to high-salt wastewater in the crystallization device is 20000Nm3 / m3), and performs direct contact heat exchange with the high-temperature gas input to the crystallization device, and the desulfurization wastewater begins to crystallize and evaporate. The main component of the solid product generated during the crystallization and evaporation process is sodium chloride, which is discharged through the solid product outlet and collected, and the generated gas phase product is sent to the desulfurization system.

[0040] By adopting the above method, the purity of the collected sodium sulfate is greater than 80%, the salt removal rate in high-salt wastewater reaches more than 95%, and the purity of the recovered sodium chloride is greater than 95%, meeting the requirements for industrial salt use.

[0041] The present invention includes but is not limited to this embodiment. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, other methods can be used to make substitutions without departing from the technical principles of the present invention. These substitutions should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
