Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of alkali slag treatment, and in particular to an alkali slag treatment system and a process thereof. Background Art

[0002] Although the flow rate of ethylene alkali slag and liquefied gas alkali slag wastewater is small, due to the high concentration of organic matter, high sulfide content and high alkalinity, it may have an impact on the subsequent biochemical treatment and affect the wastewater treatment effect of the power plant. In particular, if the sulfide content is high and the neutralization measures are not appropriate, it may cause hydrogen sulfide gas to overflow, bring safety risks and affect the surrounding environment. In addition, a large number of oligomers in the alkali slag of this project form butter, which is easy to agglomerate when entering the sewage treatment system, affecting sewage production. Based on the principles of low investment, simple operation and reliable and sufficient raw material sources, a point source control plan is adopted to reduce the sulfide (S 2- ) content to meet the sewage inlet requirements of the downstream sewage treatment plant.

[0003] There are five main industrial alkali slag treatment processes: sulfuric acid acidification, incineration, dilution treatment, wet oxidation, and alkali slag treatment using catalytic cracking regeneration flue gas neutralization and advanced oxidation combined process. In the process of adding acid to adjust the pH value, sulfuric acid acidification cannot avoid gas pollution such as HS and VOC, which poses a great environmental and safety hazard. Toxic and harmful gases such as SO generated by the incineration method will pollute the surrounding atmospheric environment: at the same time, since fuel oil or gas is required for combustion, the cost of treatment is extremely high. Since the concentration of pollutants in alkali slag wastewater is hundreds of times the influent index of general sewage treatment plants, the dilution treatment method requires the sewage treatment plant to be much larger in scale, and additional wastewater treatment facilities need to be added, resulting in excessive investment costs and a large area; if the dilution multiple is limited, the sewage treatment plant will be overloaded due to the excessive influent index of the sewage treatment plant, which directly leads to unstable operation. Wet oxidation has a good effect on alkali slag wastewater, but its operating conditions are harsh (WAO) and the process requires high temperature and high pressure. It is deodorized by moderate wet air oxidation (WAO). In the WAO unit, inorganic and organic sulfides in the waste alkali liquor are oxidized into thiosulfate, sulfite and phosphate, thereby achieving the purpose of deodorization and reducing the amount of acid used in the subsequent acidification process. The method of treating alkali residue wastewater using catalytic cracking regeneration flue gas is to blend the alkali liquor or alkali residue produced by gasoline refining with the alkali liquor or alkali residue produced by liquefied gas refining, and introduce catalytic cracking regeneration flue gas into the blended waste alkali liquor or alkali residue for neutralization reaction to reduce the pH value. The regeneration flue gas of the fluidized catalytic cracking unit mainly includes acid gases CO, SO and NOx, and the acid gas neutralizes the NaOH, sodium phenol, sodium cyclopentaneate and sodium sulfide in the waste alkali liquor or alkali residue and converts them into sodium carbonate and phenol, cyclopentane acid and hydrogen sulfide; so as to further separate the oil and phenol, cyclopentane acid, sulfide and the like in the waste alkali liquor or alkali residue. The treatment steps include multi-stage sedimentation, advanced oxidation, flocculation, and filter press processes to further extract crude phenol, cyclohexane acid, etc.; the treated water is discharged in a managed manner to an existing sewage treatment plant for comprehensive treatment.

[0004] Application number CN 202110797562.3 discloses a system and method for treating petrochemical alkali slag, which belongs to the technical field of petrochemical alkali slag treatment, and solves the technical problems that the existing petrochemical alkali slag treatment methods are complicated, the energy consumption is roughly poor in economy and the environmental protection is poor. The treatment system includes a sintering flue gas acidification unit, a desulfurization ash calcification unit and a sintering machine detoxification unit connected in sequence; the sintering flue gas acidification unit is connected to the sintering flue gas main pipeline, and the sintering flue gas acidification unit is also connected to the sintering flue gas treatment system; the petrochemical alkali slag is passed into the sintering flue gas acidification unit for acidification treatment; the desulfurization ash calcification unit is used to perform a calcification reaction on the acidified waste liquid; the calcification product is separated into solid and liquid, the solid precipitate is sent to the lime kiln, and the alkali slag liquid is sent to the sintering machine detoxification unit; the sintering machine detoxification unit is used to perform high-temperature detoxification on the residual neutral oil and organic acidic substances in the alkali slag liquid.
