Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of comprehensive treatment technology for industrial solid waste, and in particular to a method for the comprehensive utilization of secondary aluminum ash. Background Technology
[0002] Secondary aluminum ash is the ash residue generated during the remelting of primary aluminum ash or the recovery of elemental aluminum from scrap aluminum in the secondary aluminum industry. The elemental aluminum content in secondary aluminum ash ranges from 5% to 20%, and it also contains alumina, aluminum nitride, salts (fluorides and chlorides, etc.), and silicon dioxide. The main hazardous component of secondary aluminum ash is aluminum nitride, along with small amounts of inorganic salts such as fluorides, sulfides, sulfates, and chlorides. Direct discharge of secondary aluminum ash will cause serious air, soil, and water pollution.
[0003] The disposal methods for secondary aluminum ash are mainly divided into pyrometallurgical and wet methods (primarily hydrolysis). The wet method includes acid-alkali treatment, which involves reacting the secondary aluminum ash with a specific concentration of acid or alkali to hydrolyze aluminum nitride, elemental aluminum, and other aluminum compounds. After alkaline treatment, the liquid phase has a pH greater than 14 and mainly contains aluminates, chlorides, sulfides, sulfates, and small amounts of fluorides and ammonia nitrogen. Currently, acid or alkali leaching is commonly used to treat secondary aluminum ash, achieving efficient hydrolysis of aluminum nitride and leaching soluble salts. However, a large amount of recyclable resources still remain in the acidic or alkaline hydrolysate. The heavy metal and impurity ion content of secondary aluminum ash treated by hydrolysis is not significantly reduced, making it unsuitable as an auxiliary cementitious material in concrete. This poses difficulties for the utilization of the secondary aluminum ash residue after hydrolysis. Furthermore, the products obtained from the current treatment of alkaline aluminum ash hydrolysate are relatively limited, resulting in low resource utilization of the aluminum ash hydrolysate. Summary of the Invention

[0058] The high-salt, alkaline ammonia nitrogen hydrolysate has a temperature of 80-95℃, an alkalinity of 0.20-2.0 mol / L, a total salt content of 5-25%, and an ammonia nitrogen concentration of 200-2000 mg / L.
[0059] The reactor rotation speed is set to 40-150 r / min, and air is introduced for aeration at a flow rate of 10-30 m³ / min. 3 The reaction rate is 0.5-3 h, and the resulting ammonia gas is passed into the absorption tower to produce ammonia water.
[0060] As an improvement to the above technical solution, in the step of dissolving carbon dioxide in the first-stage liquid phase until a specified pH value is reached to obtain the second-stage liquid phase:
[0061] Carbon dioxide is introduced into the first-stage liquid phase, with a flow rate of 1000-3000 mL / min and a rotation speed of 30-150 r / min. The reaction is stopped when the pH of the reaction decreases from 12-14 to 7-8. The slurry is then subjected to solid-liquid separation to obtain aluminum hydroxide and the second-stage liquid phase.
[0062] As an improvement to the above technical solution, in the step of dissolving carbon dioxide in the second-stage liquid phase until a specified pH value is reached to obtain the third-stage liquid phase:

The carbon dioxide flow rate is set to 1000-3000 mL / min, and the rotation speed is set to 40-150 r / min. The reaction is stopped when the pH of the reaction decreases from 7-8 to 5-6. The slurry is then subjected to solid-liquid separation to obtain sodium bicarbonate and the third-stage liquid phase.
[0064] As an improvement to the above technical solution, in the step of adding an extraction solvent to the third-stage liquid phase and dissolving carbon dioxide until a specified pH value is reached, and obtaining a fourth-stage liquid phase consisting of an organic phase and an inorganic phase after extraction and separation:

[0071] When the sodium sulfate concentration in the mother liquor decreases to 3-7% and the temperature drops to 45-55℃, the mother liquor is transported to the MVR evaporator, the compressor is turned on, and sodium chloride is obtained after concentration and supersaturation.
[0072] As an improvement to the above technical solution, the step of back-extraction separation of the fourth-stage liquid phase of the organic phase to obtain an inorganic liquid phase and an organic liquid phase, evaporating the water in the inorganic liquid phase, and returning the organic liquid phase to the third-stage liquid phase processing is as follows:

The water in the inorganic liquid phase is evaporated to obtain ammonium chloride. The organic liquid phase is then returned to the third stage liquid phase for processing.
[0074] Implementing this invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0075] 1. In the comprehensive utilization method of secondary aluminum ash in this invention, the secondary aluminum ash is deoxidized and hydrolyzed to obtain a mixed gas, a hydrolyzed slurry solid phase, and a high-salt-alkali ammonia-nitrogen hydrolysate. The mixed gas is separated and purified to obtain hydrogen. The hydrolyzed slurry solid phase undergoes at least two acid washing treatments and at least one intermittent treatment to remove heavy metals and impurity ions, making it usable as a concrete admixture. The high-salt-alkali ammonia-nitrogen hydrolysate, after ammonia-nitrogen separation and graded acidification treatment, yields aluminum hydroxide, as well as inorganic salt crystals such as sodium bicarbonate, sodium chloride, sodium sulfate, and ammonium chloride, thereby achieving high-value-added utilization of the secondary aluminum ash.
[0076] 2. In the comprehensive utilization method of secondary aluminum ash of the present invention, the secondary aluminum ash is first subjected to low-temperature hydrolysis treatment (5-99℃), and then the hydrolyzed slurry solid phase obtained from the hydrolysis treatment is subjected to at least two acid washing treatments (room temperature) and at least one alkali washing treatment (room temperature). Based on this technical route, firstly, it prevents a sudden rise in temperature during the hydrolysis process, which would generate a large amount of foam and reduce the difficulty of controlling the hydrolysis reaction. Secondly, the low-temperature hydrolysis process reduces the generation of water vapor, preventing a large amount of water vapor from mixing into the mixed gas and reducing the difficulty of separating the mixed gas in the later stage. Thirdly, the subsequent acid washing and alkali washing treatments can separate impurity ions and heavy metals, and also completely decompose the gas-producing impurities in the secondary aluminum ash, making the solid phase product applicable to high-value-added concrete.
[0077] 3. In the comprehensive utilization method of secondary aluminum ash in this invention, a specific temperature control program is adopted according to the characteristics of the hydrolysis reaction of secondary aluminum ash. Specifically, in the early stage of hydrolysis, a cooling medium is introduced for cooling, and in the later stage of hydrolysis, a heating medium is introduced for heating. This makes the reaction temperature control more precise, avoids excessive reaction, reduces the difficulty of control, and reduces the difficulty of separating the mixed gas.
[0078] 4. In the comprehensive utilization method of secondary aluminum ash in this invention, the solid phase of the hydrolyzed mud is washed multiple times during treatment. After each washing, solid-liquid separation is performed. The resulting liquid is recycled for use in the hydrolysis or washing process, while the resulting solid is used in concrete. Furthermore, heavy metal and impurity ions are monitored during each washing process. Based on this process, not only is water consumption effectively reduced, but the elution efficiency of heavy metals and impurity ions is also improved, facilitating the high-value-added utilization of the hydrolyzed mud solid phase.
[0079] Furthermore, this invention adjusts the pH of the slurry by introducing different substances at different stages, thereby maximizing the dissolution of heavy metals and impurity ions in the liquid phase and improving the elution efficiency of heavy metals and impurity ions. Moreover, this invention uses CO2 as a pH adjuster, converting CO2 into carbonates, achieving a negative carbon process. Attached Figure Description

[0085] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0086] See Figure 1 This invention discloses a method for the comprehensive utilization of secondary aluminum ash, which includes the following steps:
[0087] S100, deoxidize the secondary aluminum ash;
[0088] Specifically, deoxidation can be achieved through an inert gas replacement process, but it is not limited to this. Preferably, in one embodiment, secondary aluminum ash is placed in a reactor and nitrogen gas is introduced for replacement to achieve deoxidation. Deoxidation avoids the risk of explosion caused by the combination of hydrogen and oxygen generated later.
[0089] Preferably, in some embodiments, step S100 includes:
[0090] S101. Grade the secondary aluminum ash.
[0091] Specifically, grading can be performed by sieving or cyclone grading, but is not limited to these methods. Preferably, in one embodiment, grading is performed by cyclone grading.
[0092] The residue on a 125μm sieve of the secondary aluminum ash obtained after grading is 1-10wt%; preferably 1-5wt%. Using the fraction with a particle size smaller than 125μm for hydrolysis significantly improves the hydrolysis reaction rate and reduces the content of metallic aluminum and aluminum nitride in the residue after hydrolysis.
[0093] It should be noted that in conventional secondary aluminum ash processing, the secondary aluminum ash is usually ground to enhance reactivity, which consumes a great deal of energy. However, the comprehensive utilization method based on this invention eliminates the need for a grinding process, significantly reducing energy consumption.
[0094] S102. The secondary aluminum ash is deoxidized by nitrogen replacement.
[0095] S200: The deoxidized secondary aluminum ash is hydrolyzed and then separated into solid and liquid phases to obtain a mixed gas, a hydrolyzed mud solid phase, and a high-salt-alkali ammonia nitrogen hydrolysate.
[0096] Preferably, in one embodiment, secondary aluminum ash and water are mixed at a solid-liquid ratio of 1:(2-10) and added to a reactor. The water can be pure water, water obtained from a subsequent hydrolysis slurry solid-phase treatment process, or cooling water, but is not limited to these. Preferably, the solid-liquid ratio is 1:3-1:6. More specifically, approximately one-third of the total water volume is first added to the reactor, then the deoxidized secondary aluminum ash is added, and finally the remaining water is added.
[0097] At the start of hydrolysis, calcium hydroxide and a catalyst are added to the reactor. Specifically, the weight ratio of calcium hydroxide to deoxidized secondary aluminum ash is (1-10):100 to achieve a supersaturated state, resulting in a pH of 12-13 in the reaction solution. Specifically, the weight ratio of the catalyst to deoxidized secondary aluminum ash is (1-10):100; preferably 3:100-8:100.
[0098] Preferably, in one embodiment, the catalyst comprises, by weight, 0-10 parts sodium carbonate, 0-10 parts potassium carbonate, 10-80 parts sodium hydroxide, 0-50 parts potassium hydroxide, 5-30 parts calcium carbide slag, and 0.01-5 parts sodium stannate. Based on this catalyst, more aluminum nitride and aluminum hydrolysis can be completed at a lower temperature (5-99°C) and in a shorter time (5-48h).
[0099] Specifically, the hydrolysis reaction temperature is 5-99℃, preferably 80-90℃. The hydrolysis reaction time is 5-48h, preferably 5-24h. Based on these reaction conditions, the elemental aluminum and aluminum nitride in the secondary aluminum ash can reach a near-complete concentration.
[0100] It should be noted that the hydrolysis reaction of secondary aluminum ash with water can be divided into an induction period, an acceleration period, and a deceleration period. During the induction period, approximately 0.5-1 hour after the start of the hydrolysis reaction, the reaction rate is slow with no significant exothermic reaction. During the acceleration period, approximately 0.5-1 hour after the start of the hydrolysis reaction, the reaction rate increases rapidly, accompanied by significant exothermic reaction. During the deceleration period, both the reaction rate and the rate of exothermic reaction decrease. Therefore, during the acceleration period, the internal temperature of the reactor exceeds the boiling point of water (100°C at normal pressure) within a few hours of the start of the hydrolysis reaction. A large amount of water vapor enters the gas phase, which makes subsequent hydrogen purification difficult. Furthermore, the rapid temperature rise also generates a large amount of foam, making the reaction difficult to control. During the deceleration period, the internal temperature of the reactor begins to decrease, and the hydrolysis reaction rate begins to decrease significantly. Therefore, this invention controls the temperature of the hydrolysis reaction to be below 100°C, preferably between 5-99°C, and more preferably between 80-90°C.
[0101] To achieve the above temperature control, in one embodiment, the temperature during the hydrolysis process is controlled according to the following procedure:
[0102] Secondary aluminum ash, water, catalyst and calcium hydroxide are added to the reactor. When the temperature inside the reactor rises to 70-90℃, a cooling medium is used to cool it so that the rate of temperature rise inside the reactor is controlled at 0.1-3℃ / min. Specifically, the cooling medium can be water, but is not limited to it.
[0103] When the rate of temperature rise in the reactor decreases, gradually reduce the amount of cooling medium to maintain the temperature in the reactor at 80-90℃.
[0104] When the temperature inside the reactor begins to drop, a heating medium is used to reheat it, and the amount of heating medium is adjusted to maintain the temperature inside the reactor at 80-90℃; the temperature difference between the heating medium and the reactor temperature is 1-10℃. Specifically, the heating medium can be hot water, but is not limited to this.
[0105] Accordingly, the structure of the reactor was modified to achieve the aforementioned temperature control. Internal coils, external coils, or jackets also need to be installed on the conventional reactor to allow the introduction of cooling or heating media.
[0106] S300: Separate and purify the mixed gas to obtain hydrogen.
[0107] Specifically, during the hydrolysis reaction, the generated gases are collected to obtain a mixed gas. The specific processing flow for this mixed gas is as follows: using water as the absorbent gas, multi-stage absorption is performed to absorb NH3 from the mixed gas. Hydrogen is then purified by pressure swing adsorption (PSA) to achieve a purity of over 99.99 wt%. The impurity gases (CH4, H3P, H2S, etc.) removed by PSA are sent to a regenerative thermal oxidizer (RTO) for combustion to provide heat energy for heating the water. The heated water can then be used as a heating medium to heat the reactor during the deceleration phase of the hydrolysis reaction. Specifically, the temperature of the heated water is 81-99℃.
[0108] Specifically, after hydrolysis, the resulting slurry undergoes solid-liquid separation to obtain a hydrolyzed mud solid phase and a high-salt, alkali, ammonia-nitrogen hydrolysate. The hydrolyzed mud solid phase has a water content of 15-25 wt% and contains heavy metals such as Pb, Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Zn, and Mn, as well as Cl... - F - K + Na + Impurity ions. Preferably, the high-salt, alkaline ammonia nitrogen hydrolysate has a temperature of 80-95℃, an alkalinity of 0.20-2.0 mol / L, a total salt content of 5-25%, and an ammonia nitrogen concentration of 200-2000 mg / L. More preferably, the high-salt, alkaline ammonia nitrogen hydrolysate has a temperature of 85-90℃, an alkalinity of 0.25-1.5 mol / L, a total salt content of 10-20%, and an ammonia nitrogen concentration of 200-2000 mg / L.
[0109] S400. The solid phase of hydrolyzed mud is subjected to at least two acid washing treatments and at least one alkali washing treatment to obtain a solid phase product for use as a concrete admixture.
[0110] Preferably, in one embodiment: step S400 includes:
[0111] The solid phase of the hydrolyzed mud is subjected to at least two acid washing treatments, and the slurry obtained from the acid washing treatment is subjected to solid-liquid separation to obtain a sub-solid phase and a first sub-liquid phase; the sub-liquid phase is used for secondary aluminum ash hydrolysis treatment or the previous acid washing treatment.
[0112] The solid phase is subjected to at least one alkaline washing treatment, and the slurry obtained from the alkaline washing treatment is subjected to solid-liquid separation to obtain a solid product and a second sub-liquid phase, which is used for acid washing treatment.
[0113] The content of tracer ions was measured in both the acid-washed and alkali-washed slurries. The tracer ions were selected from heavy metals and / or impurity ions.
[0114] This invention involves multiple washings of the solid phase of hydrolyzed mud, followed by solid-liquid separation after each washing. The resulting liquid is recycled for use in either the hydrolysis or washing process, while the solid is utilized in concrete. Furthermore, heavy metal and impurity ions are monitored during each washing process. This process effectively reduces water consumption and improves the elution efficiency of heavy metals and impurities, facilitating the high-value utilization of the hydrolyzed mud solid phase.
[0115] It should be noted that the multiple washing in this invention can be two washings or more than three washings, preferably three to five washings, and the number of washings can be determined according to the actual situation of the secondary aluminum ash.
[0116] It should be noted that a washing vessel with a specific structure is used for washing to improve the efficiency of treating the solid phase of hydrolyzed mud.

[0206] Example 1
[0207] This embodiment provides a method for the comprehensive utilization of secondary aluminum ash, and the specific implementation methods are given in three parts below:
[0208] (a) Hydrolysis reaction and treatment of mixed gas
[0209] 1. Powder classification: The secondary aluminum ash is classified using a powder classifier. After classification, the residue on a 125μm sieve is 3.5%.
[0210] 2. Deoxidation: Place the secondary aluminum ash in the reactor and purge it with nitrogen to perform deoxidation treatment;
[0211] 3. Hydrolysis: Feeding is carried out at a solid-liquid ratio of 1:3.5. First, add approximately 1 / 3 of the total water volume to the reactor, then add the deoxidized secondary aluminum ash, followed by the remaining water. Then, add calcium hydroxide until the pH of the reaction solution reaches 12.5. Simultaneously, add catalyst at 3 wt% of the weight of the secondary aluminum ash to begin the reaction. The catalyst formula is: 10 parts sodium carbonate, 20 parts sodium hydroxide, 10 parts carbide slag, and 0.03 parts sodium stannate.
[0212] The initial reaction temperature was 15℃, and the pressure was atmospheric pressure. When the temperature inside the reactor reached 75℃, cooling water was introduced into the internal coils of the reactor, and the flow rate of the cooling water was controlled to maintain the temperature rise rate at 1.2℃ / min. As the temperature rise rate of the reactor began to decrease, the cooling water flow rate was gradually reduced until it was completely shut off. After shutting off, the internal temperature of the reactor was approximately 87℃. When the internal temperature of the reactor began to drop, hot water was introduced into the jacket. The hot water came from a regenerative thermal incinerator. The temperature of the hot water was 91℃. The flow rate of the hot water entering the jacket was adjusted to maintain the internal temperature of the reactor at approximately 88℃.
[0213] 4. Gas Collection and Purification: The hydrolysis reaction takes 22 hours. During the hydrolysis process, the gas discharged from the reactor is collected. A multi-stage absorption tower is used to absorb, separate, and dry the mixed gas, which is mainly composed of NH3. The gas after absorption by the multi-stage absorption tower is mainly hydrogen. The absorbent in the multi-stage absorption tower is purified water. The absorbent, which is mainly composed of ammonia, exits the absorption tower for further utilization.
[0214] The gas separated by the multi-stage absorption tower is mainly hydrogen. Pressure swing adsorption (PSA) is used to purify the hydrogen, achieving a purity (mass fraction) of 99.995%. The impurity gases removed by PSA enter a regenerative thermal oxidizer (RTO) for combustion, with the heat energy used to heat the cooling water (internal coil) from the reactor. The heated water is then used to maintain the reactor's temperature. The heated water temperature is 93°C.
[0215] 5. Collection and Separation of Liquid and Solid Phases: The slurry obtained after the hydrolysis reaction is subjected to solid-liquid separation to obtain a hydrolyzed mud solid phase and a high-salt, alkali, ammonia nitrogen hydrolysate. The high-salt, alkali, ammonia nitrogen hydrolysate has the following concentrations: hydroxide 0.6 mol / L, aluminum ion 15 g / L, total salinity 12%, chloride ion 27.7 g / L, ammonia nitrogen 2000 mg / L, sulfide and thiosulfate concentrations 1.98 g / L and 13.5 g / L, respectively. The water content of the hydrolyzed mud solid phase is 18 wt%.
[0216] (II) Treatment of high-salt, alkaline, ammonia nitrogen hydrolysate
[0217] 1. The high-salt-alkali ammonia nitrogen hydrolysate is subjected to ammonia nitrogen separation to obtain gaseous ammonia gas and a first-stage liquid phase. The gaseous ammonia gas is dissolved in water to obtain ammonia water.
[0218] In this process, ammonia nitrogen separation is carried out in a reaction vessel using a high-salt, alkaline ammonia nitrogen hydrolysate. The reaction vessel rotation speed is set to 40 r / min, and air is introduced for aeration at a flow rate of 10. 3 / min, reaction time 1h.
[0219] 2. Dissolve carbon dioxide in the first-stage liquid phase until the specified pH value is reached to obtain the second-stage liquid phase;
[0220] Carbon dioxide is introduced at a flow rate of 1000 mL / min and a rotation speed of 40 r / min. The reaction is stopped when the pH drops from 14 to about 7. The slurry is then transferred to a belt filter press for solid-liquid separation to obtain aluminum hydroxide and a second-stage liquid phase.
[0221] 3. Dissolve carbon dioxide in the second-stage liquid phase until the specified pH value is reached to obtain the third-stage liquid phase;
[0222] The second-stage liquid phase is transferred to the reactor, and carbon dioxide is introduced into the reactor at a flow rate of 1200 mL / min and a rotation speed of 40 r / min. The reaction is stopped when the pH drops from 7 to about 6. The slurry is then transferred to a plate and frame filter press for solid-liquid separation to obtain sodium bicarbonate and the third-stage liquid phase.
[0223] 4. Add extraction solvent to the third-stage liquid phase and dissolve carbon dioxide until the specified pH value is reached. After extraction and separation, a fourth-stage liquid phase consisting of an organic phase and an inorganic phase is obtained.
[0224] In this process, the third-stage liquid phase is transferred to a reaction vessel, and carbon dioxide is introduced into the vessel at a rotation speed of 40 r / min and a flow rate of 1100 mL / min. Simultaneously, an extraction solvent (alkyl primary amine extractant + kerosene diluent) is added. The organic phase to inorganic phase volume ratio is set to 1:2. The reaction temperature in the reaction vessel is 20℃, the reaction pressure is 1.85 MPa, and the carbon dioxide solubility is set to 0.07 mol / L. The reaction is stopped when the pH of the reaction drops from 6 to about 3. After extraction and separation, the fourth-stage liquid phase of the organic phase and the fourth-stage liquid phase of the inorganic phase are obtained.
[0225] 5. Evaporate the water in the fourth stage liquid phase of the inorganic phase;
[0226] The process involves releasing the solution from the bottom of the reactor, heating it to 100°C, and then pumping it into an MVR crystallizer evaporator. The compressor is then started, and sodium sulfate and mother liquor are produced when the sodium sulfate concentration in the mother liquor is supersaturated. When the concentration of sodium sulfate in the mother liquor decreases to 5%, the temperature is lowered to 50°C, and the mother liquor is transported to the MVR evaporator. The compressor is then turned on, and sodium chloride is obtained after concentration and supersaturation.
[0227] 6. The fourth stage liquid phase of the organic phase is subjected to back-extraction separation to obtain an inorganic liquid phase and an organic liquid phase. The water in the inorganic liquid phase is evaporated, and the organic liquid phase is returned to the third stage liquid phase processing.
[0228] In step 4, after separating the inorganic fourth-stage liquid phase, some of the ammonia water from step 1 is added to the organic fourth-stage liquid phase. The volume ratio of organic phase to inorganic phase is set to approximately 1:0.5, and the rotation speed is set to 40 r / min for back-extraction separation. The organic fourth-stage liquid phase is then reused in step 4. The obtained inorganic fourth-stage liquid phase is then concentrated and evaporated to obtain ammonium chloride.
[0229] In this embodiment, after treatment with the high-salt, alkaline ammonia nitrogen hydrolysate, the yields of the various products are as follows:
[0230]
[0231] (III) Treatment of solid phase of hydrolyzed mud
[0232] The solid-liquid ratio (mass ratio) in each washing tank is set to 1:3.4. The first washing liquid is injected into the first-stage washing tank until the liquid level reaches 55% of the tank's internal height.

[0254] Example 2
[0255] This embodiment provides a method for the comprehensive utilization of secondary aluminum ash, and the specific implementation methods are given in three parts below:
[0256] (a) Hydrolysis reaction and treatment of mixed gas
[0257] 1. Air classification: The secondary aluminum ash was classified using an air classifier. After classification, the residue on a 125μm sieve was 4.2%.
[0258] 2. Deoxidation: Place the secondary aluminum ash in the reactor and purge it with nitrogen to perform deoxidation treatment;
[0259] 3. Hydrolysis: Feeding is carried out at a solid-liquid ratio of 1:3.8. First, add approximately 1 / 3 of the total water volume to the reactor, then add the deoxidized secondary aluminum ash, followed by the remaining water. Then, add calcium hydroxide until the pH of the reaction solution reaches 12.3. Simultaneously, add 5 wt% of the catalyst (based on the weight of the secondary aluminum ash) to begin the reaction. The catalyst formulation is as follows: 12 parts sodium carbonate, 18 parts sodium hydroxide, 14 parts calcium carbide slag, and 0.04 parts sodium stannate.
[0260] The initial reaction temperature was 24℃, and the pressure was atmospheric pressure. When the temperature inside the reactor reached 88℃, cooling water was introduced into the internal coils of the reactor, and the flow rate of the cooling water was controlled to maintain the temperature rise rate at 0.5℃ / min. As the temperature rise rate of the reactor began to decrease, the cooling water flow rate was gradually reduced until it was completely shut off. After shutting off, the internal temperature of the reactor was approximately 93℃. When the internal temperature of the reactor began to drop, hot water was introduced into the jacket. The hot water came from a regenerative thermal incinerator. The temperature of the hot water was 95℃. The flow rate of the hot water entering the jacket was adjusted to maintain the internal temperature of the reactor at approximately 92℃.

A multi-stage absorption tower is used to absorb, separate, and dry the mixed gas, which is mainly composed of NH3. The gas after absorption by the multi-stage absorption tower is mainly hydrogen. The absorbent in the multi-stage absorption tower is purified water. The absorbent, which is mainly composed of ammonia, exits the absorption tower for further utilization.

The impurity gases removed by PSA enter a regenerative thermal oxidizer (RTO) for combustion, with the heat energy used to heat the cooling water (internal coil) from the reactor. The heated water is then used to maintain the reactor's temperature at 97°C.
[0263] 5. Collection and Separation of Liquid and Solid Phases: The slurry obtained after the hydrolysis reaction is subjected to solid-liquid separation to obtain a hydrolyzed mud solid phase and a high-salt, alkali, ammonia nitrogen hydrolysate.

[0270] The second-stage liquid phase is transferred to the reactor, and carbon dioxide is introduced into the reactor at a flow rate of 1300 mL / min and a rotation speed of 55 r / min. The reaction is stopped when the pH drops from 7 to about 6. The slurry is then transferred to a plate and frame filter press for solid-liquid separation to obtain sodium bicarbonate and the third-stage liquid phase.
[0271] 4. Add extraction solvent to the third-stage liquid phase and dissolve carbon dioxide until the specified pH value is reached. After extraction and separation, a fourth-stage liquid phase consisting of an organic phase and an inorganic phase is obtained.

[0273] 5. Evaporate the water in the fourth stage liquid phase of the inorganic phase;
[0274] The solution is discharged from the bottom of the reactor, heated to 100°C, and then pumped into the MVR crystallization evaporator. The compressor is started, and sodium sulfate and mother liquor are produced when sodium sulfate is supersaturated. When the concentration of sodium sulfate in the mother liquor decreases to 5%, the temperature is lowered to 50°C, and the mother liquor is transported to the MVR evaporator. The compressor is turned on, and sodium chloride is obtained after concentration and supersaturation.
[0275] 6. The fourth stage liquid phase of the organic phase is subjected to back-extraction separation to obtain an inorganic liquid phase and an organic liquid phase. The water in the inorganic liquid phase is evaporated, and the organic liquid phase is returned to the third stage liquid phase processing.
[0276] In step 4, after separating the inorganic phase, some of the ammonia water from step 1 is added to the fourth-stage liquid phase of the organic phase. The volume ratio of organic phase to inorganic phase is set to approximately 1:0.45, and the rotation speed is set to 35 r / min for back-extraction separation.
