Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of wastewater treatment technology, specifically relating to a method for treating wastewater from hydrometallurgical extraction. Background Technology

[0002] Cobalt, nickel, and manganese mineral resources are important raw materials for the production of NCM ternary precursors. The purification of cobalt, nickel, and manganese is generally achieved through a leaching-extraction process, with the organic phase undergoing acid washing, water washing, and saponification to achieve the recycling of the extractant – a common process method. The extraction wastewater generated by this process often contains fluoride ions and oil, making direct discharge impossible. Currently, methods for removing fluoride ions from wastewater mainly include defluorination with fluoridating agents, resin adsorption, or lime precipitation; methods for removing oil mainly include activated carbon adsorption or the use of oil separators.

[0003] However, when the fluoride concentration in wastewater is high, defluorinating agents used for deep defluorination often fail to achieve the desired level of defluorination and are economically inefficient. Extraction wastewater is characterized by high oil and salt content and high hardness, which affects resin adsorption performance and causes caking; resin regeneration also suffers from low economic efficiency. Chemical precipitation methods are limited by the solubility of the precipitate, resulting in a defluorination limit, typically around 20 mg / L.

[0004] CN 111646591A discloses a method for treating semiconductor fluoride-containing wastewater. The method includes the following steps: adding calcium salt and conditioned sludge to the wastewater to be treated and stirring to obtain a reaction solution; adding flocculant to the reaction solution and then separating the sludge and water to obtain sludge containing calcium fluoride and treated clean water. CN117509936A discloses a method for removing fluoride from high-concentration fluoride-containing wastewater. The method includes the following steps: (1) adding water-soluble calcium-containing compounds to the fluoride-containing wastewater, then adding composite flocculant and coagulant aid, reacting and removing the precipitate; (2) adjusting the pH of the fluoride-containing wastewater treated in step (1) to 7-10 and then entering the electrocoagulation unit for deep treatment; (3) removing the precipitate from the electrocoagulation unit's permeate to obtain the final permeate.

[0005] The aforementioned patents all disclose how to remove fluoride from wastewater, but do not disclose how to remove oil from fluoride-containing wastewater.

[0006] Therefore, providing a process that can simultaneously treat fluoride ions and oil in wastewater has significant application prospects. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide a method for treating hydrometallurgical extraction wastewater. This method achieves low-cost, deep defluorination and oil removal from hydrometallurgical extraction wastewater through step-by-step treatment. Furthermore, the method is simple to operate, uses simple equipment, consumes little energy, and is pollution-free, thus possessing significant application prospects.

[0008] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0009] This invention provides a method for treating wastewater from hydrometallurgical extraction, the method comprising the following steps:

[0010] (1) Mix the extraction wastewater and calcium source, stir once, and then perform solid-liquid separation to obtain the first filtrate;

[0011] (2) Mix the first filtrate and carbonate, stir twice, and then filter to remove calcium to obtain the second filtrate;

[0012] (3) After mixing the second filtrate and the defluorinating agent, acid-base adjustment, stirring three times and solid-liquid separation are performed in sequence to obtain the third filtrate;

[0013] (4) Mix the third filtrate and sodium hypochlorite solution, and stir four times to obtain the treated water.

[0014] In this invention, the preliminary treatment of fluoride ions and oil in the extraction wastewater is achieved by mixing calcium sources, then the calcium ions in the filtrate are deeply treated by mixing carbonates, then the fluoride ions in the wastewater are deeply treated by mixing defluorinating agents, and finally the oil in the wastewater is deeply treated by sodium hypochlorite.

[0015] This invention can efficiently reduce fluoride ions and oil content in extraction wastewater through stepwise treatment to meet emission standards. The treatment method is simple to operate, uses simple equipment, has low energy consumption, and is pollution-free, and has important application prospects.

[0016] In addition, the extraction wastewater described in this invention is a mixed wastewater of extract, washing acid, and washing water generated after extraction and enrichment of nickel sulfate and lithium carbonate; this extraction wastewater contains high concentrations of fluoride ions and oil.

[0017] The discharge standards for the extraction wastewater described in this invention are: oil content ≤ 5 mg / L, calcium ion content ≤ 5 mg / L, and fluoride ion content ≤ 5 mg / L.

[0018] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the fluoride ion content in the extraction wastewater in step (1) is ≥150mg / L, for example, it can be 150mg / L, 170mg / L, 190mg / L, 210mg / L, 230mg / L, 250mg / L or 270mg / L, etc., but is not limited to the listed values.

Other unlisted values ​​within the range are also applicable.

[0022] In this invention, the calcium source is used to combine with fluoride ions to produce calcium fluoride through chemical precipitation, thus achieving the initial removal of fluoride ions. If the amount added is too high, it will result in a high calcium content in the first filtrate, a high amount of carbonate added subsequently, a high salt content in the final wastewater, and low economic benefits. Conversely, if the amount added is too low, it will result in a high fluoride content in the first filtrate, a high amount of defluorinating agent added subsequently, and low economic benefits.

[0033] In this invention, the purpose of acid-base adjustment in step (3) is to maximize the sedimentation efficiency of the defluorinating agent; if the pH value is too low, the removal of fluoride ions will be incomplete, and conversely, if the pH value is too high, the removal of fluoride ions will be incomplete.

[0122] Comparative Example 2

[0129] (4) Mix the third filtrate and the defluorinating agent, then mix with hydrochloric acid to adjust the pH to 7.5, then stir for 10 minutes three times and separate the solid and liquid to obtain the treated water.

[0130] The treated water provided in the above embodiments and comparative examples was tested and analyzed. The concentrations of F ions, calcium ions, and oil content in the water were detected, and the results are shown in Table 1.

[0131] Table 1

[0132]

[0133] According to Table 1, the following points can be observed:

[0134] (1) Comprehensive analysis of Examples 1-3 shows that the treatment method provided by the present invention can effectively reduce fluoride ions and oil in wastewater and meet the wastewater discharge standards;

[0135] In addition, the processing method is low in cost, low in energy consumption, pollution-free and simple to operate, and has important application prospects;

[0136] (2) Comprehensive analysis of Examples 1 and 4-5 shows that the amount of calcium source added will affect the initial defluorination and oil removal effect of the extraction wastewater. When the amount of calcium source added is too low, it will lead to a large amount of defluorinating agent added and a high concentration of fluoride ions. Conversely, when the amount of calcium source added is too high, a large amount of sodium carbonate needs to be added in order to make the treated water meet the discharge standards, which will lead to an increase in treatment costs.

[0137] It is worth noting that in Example 5, when the amount of calcium source added in step (1) is too high, in order to make the calcium ion content in the treated water meet the standard, it is necessary to add excessive sodium carbonate, which will increase the treatment cost.

[0138] (3) Based on a comprehensive analysis of Examples 1 and 6-7, it can be seen that the amount of sodium carbonate added in step (2) will affect the removal effect of calcium ions in wastewater. When the amount of sodium carbonate added is too low, the removal of calcium ions will be incomplete. Conversely, when the amount of sodium carbonate added is too high, the cost will be higher.

[0139] (4) Comprehensive analysis of Examples 1 and 8-9 shows that the pH of the environment during the deep defluorination process (step (3)) will affect the defluorination effect; when the pH value of the environment is too low or too high, the fluoride ion concentration will be too high and the emission standard will not be met.

[0140] (5) Comprehensive analysis of Examples 1 and 10-11 shows that the amount of sodium hypochlorite added will affect the deep oil removal effect. When the amount of sodium hypochlorite added is too low, the oil removal rate will be low. Conversely, when the amount of sodium hypochlorite added is too high, the cost will be high and the excessive sodium hypochlorite in the treated water will cause secondary pollution.

[0141] (6) Comprehensive analysis of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 shows that if the preliminary defluorination and deoiling process is omitted and defluorinating agent and oxidant are directly used for deep defluorination and deoiling, the impurity ions in the treated water will not meet the discharge standards. If the impurity concentration is to be reduced, a large amount of defluorinating agent and sodium hypochlorite will be added, which will increase the treatment cost.

[0142] (7) Comprehensive analysis of Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 shows that compared with using sodium hypochlorite as an oxidant, if potassium permanganate, hydrogen peroxide and other oxidants are used to remove oil, the oil in the wastewater cannot be removed efficiently, making it unable to meet the discharge standards.

[0143] (8) Comprehensive analysis of Example 1 and Comparative Example 3 shows that changing the order of deep degreasing and deep defluorination will result in a higher pH value in the treatment system, a decrease in the oxidation performance of sodium hypochlorite, and consequently a higher oil content.

[0144] In summary, the treatment method provided by this invention can effectively reduce fluoride ions and oil content in wastewater, meeting wastewater discharge standards. In addition, the treatment method is low in cost, low in energy consumption, pollution-free, and simple to operate, and has significant application prospects.
