Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of flocculant preparation and alkaline industrial sewage treatment, and more specifically, it is a method for preparing a special flocculant by utilizing waste byproducts (waste sulfuric acid and ferrous sulfate monohydrate) generated in the production process of titanium dioxide by sulfuric acid method. The present invention also relates to a sewage treatment method using the flocculant. Background Art

[0002] In the production process of titanium dioxide by sulfuric acid method, a large amount of waste sulfuric acid with high, medium and low concentrations is produced in the washing process. The high-concentration waste acid comes from the upper acid (filtrate produced by solid-liquid separation of metatitanic acid) of the slurry (meta-titanic acid) after hydrolysis. The high-concentration waste acid contains H2SO4 300-310g / L, Fe 2+ 44-48g / L, 4-6 tons are produced per ton of titanium dioxide. Due to the high concentration of high-concentration waste acid, it has been effectively utilized to the maximum extent by being used as the initiator liquid for the main reaction of acidolysis, waste acid concentration, mixed acid, etc.; medium-concentration waste acid comes from the waste acid produced in the early stage of water washing of the upper filter cake (the filtrate in the early stage of water washing). The medium-concentration waste acid contains H2SO4200-250g / L, Fe 2+ 33-40g / L, 6-10 tons of medium-concentration waste acid is produced per ton of titanium dioxide. The concentration of medium-concentration waste acid is relatively high, and it has a certain comprehensive utilization value; low-concentration waste acid comes from the waste acid produced in the later stage of water washing of the upper filter cake (the filtrate from the early stage of water washing to the end of water washing). The low-concentration waste acid contains H2SO410-50g / L, Fe 2+ 1.5-4.5g / L, 15-20 tons of low-concentration waste acid is produced per ton of titanium dioxide. The concentration of low-concentration waste acid is low and the production volume is large. At present, there is no path for comprehensive utilization to directly neutralize and meet emission standards.

[0003] After the high-concentration waste acid is concentrated to 55-60%, solid-liquid separation is required. The main component of the separated filter cake is ferrous sulfate monohydrate (FeSO4·H2O), with a content of about 56% and free acid of about 11%, producing 0.7-0.9 tons per ton of titanium dioxide; this part can only be sent to pyrite for acid production and co-combustion to recover S and Fe elements; the separated filtrate (concentrated waste acid) is reused as the initiator liquid for the main reaction of acidolysis.

[0004] Waste sulfuric acid produced by water washing and ferrous sulfate monohydrate produced by waste acid concentration are two waste by-products produced in the production process of titanium dioxide by the sulfuric acid method. They are produced in large quantities and are difficult to utilize comprehensively.
