Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of wastewater treatment technology, and in particular to a seed crystal for recovering silicon ions from wastewater, its preparation method, and its nucleation granulation process. Background Technology
[0002] Silicon-containing wastewater refers to wastewater containing a high concentration of silicon ions, typically generated during the production processes of industries such as semiconductors, solar cells, electronic components, and glass. This wastewater poses the following hazards: 1) Environmental pollution: Direct discharge of silicon-containing wastewater into rivers, lakes, and other water bodies can cause the water to become opaque and turbid, and in severe cases, can damage the aquatic ecosystem; 2) Threat to human health: Silicon is a harmful substance, and long-term exposure to silicon-containing wastewater may affect the function of organs such as the nervous system, liver, and kidneys.
[0003] Currently, the main treatment methods for this type of wastewater are: (1) Chemical treatment method, which mainly uses chemical reactions to convert silicon substances in silicon-containing wastewater into silicates or silica gels that are easy to precipitate, filter and remove; (2) Biological treatment method, which mainly uses the action of biological activators to convert silicon substances in wastewater into ammonia nitrogen, nitrate nitrogen and other substances, and uses microorganisms to remove pollutants such as organic matter; (3) Membrane separation method, which mainly uses reverse osmosis membranes, ultrafiltration membranes and other methods to retain silicon substances in wastewater on the membrane, so that the wastewater has no or low silicon content after treatment; (4) Electrochemical treatment method, which mainly uses electrochemical reactions to convert silicon substances in silicon-containing wastewater into substances that are easy to precipitate or remove, and can also remove other pollutants.
[0004] However, the aforementioned wastewater treatment methods all suffer from high costs, and the resulting solid waste is generally difficult to recycle, leading to resource waste. Some methods may also generate secondary pollution during wastewater treatment.
[0005] In conclusion, how to provide a treatment method that is low-cost, effective in removing silicon, and enables the recycling of the resulting solid materials is an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

The seed crystal prepared by this disclosure, when applied to the nucleation granulation process, can efficiently remove silicon from wastewater, improve the wastewater reuse rate, and simultaneously produce dense granules, avoiding the generation of large amounts of hazardous sludge and effectively reducing treatment costs.
[0007] In a first aspect, this disclosure provides a method for preparing seed crystals for recovering silicon ions from wastewater, the method comprising the following steps:
[0008] A silicon source, alkali, and solvent are mixed and reacted to form a precipitate.
