[0002] High-salt wastewater is wastewater with a total salt content of not less than 1%, of which the mass fraction of total dissolved solids and organic matter is usually not less than 3.5%. High-salt wastewater has a wide range of sources and complex components.

The crystal seeds induce the metal ions to be crystallized and the non-metallic ions or ion groups generated by the reaction to be enriched on the surface of the crystal seeds, and further react to generate compounds with low solubility to obtain crystalline particles. After the crystal particles are fully grown, the high-salt wastewater in the water inlet pipe is switched to clean water, and the entry of alkali and acidic gas is stopped. Nitrogen is introduced into the fluid mixing zone, and the nitrogen collected in the lower part of the cylinder sends the mature crystalline particles to the particle separation zone.

[0014] In summary, the microinterface induced crystallization separation device for metal ions in high-salt wastewater can realize efficient crystallization separation of metal ions in high-salt wastewater.

The effective combination of the two allows the water to enter the upper space of the gas-liquid distributor with differential distribution. In addition, through the differentiated arrangement of the low-speed liquid distributor and the high-speed liquid distributor, the outer side of the cylinder cutting plane is a low-speed area and the inner side is a high-speed area, which promotes more seed particles to enter the circulating granulation area and regulates the seed flow direction of the circulating granulation.
[0021] Among them, the porous gas nozzle can distribute a gas flow into dispersed gas flows at various angles, helping the high-speed nitrogen gas flow to evenly enter the interior of the cylinder.

On the other hand, it realizes the resource utilization of acidic gas waste produced in industrial production.
[0045] (5) The method provided by the present invention does not require pH adjustment of the effluent. By controlling the flow rate of the acidic gas, it can not only meet the demand for inorganic anions in the crystallization process, but also neutralize the excess alkaline agent, thereby achieving the stability of the effluent pH, without the need to introduce a neutralizing agent for adjustment.

The scientific arrangement of the three zones can achieve stable removal of metal ions in high-salinity wastewater, circulating fluidization induced crystallization of seed particles, and efficient desludging and separation and recovery of mature crystal particles.
[0059] observe Figure 1It can be seen that the fluid mixing zone 110 includes an inlet pipe 111 for high-salt wastewater to enter, which is arranged at the bottom of the cylinder 100. A liquid vortex preventer 117 is arranged on the outlet 1314 of the inlet pipe 111. From the bottom to the top of the cylinder 100, a feed pipe 114, a liquid inlet pipe 113 and a seeding pipe 112 are arranged in sequence. Alkali liquid enters from the liquid inlet pipe 113 arranged on the right side of the cylinder 100, acidic gas enters from the feed pipe 114 arranged on the left side of the cylinder 100, and high-salt wastewater enters from the bottom of the cylinder 100. The three react in the fluid mixing zone 110, and the crystal seeds induce the metal ions to be crystallized and the non-metallic ions or ion clusters generated by the reaction to be enriched on the surface of the crystal seeds, and further react to generate compounds with low solubility to obtain crystalline particles.
[0060] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 3 It can be seen that a gas-liquid distributor 115 is provided inside the cylinder 100 and is located below the feed pipe 114. One side of the gas-liquid distributor 115 is connected to an inlet pipe 116 for nitrogen to enter and passes through a side wall of the cylinder 100. The gas-liquid distributor 115 includes a low-speed zone 1151 close to the inner wall of the cylinder 100, a high-speed zone 1152 wrapped inside the low-speed zone 1151, and a gas-liquid distribution plate 1153 that helps the low-speed zone 1151 and the high-speed zone 1152 to be arranged in a circle inside the cylinder 100. The gas-liquid distribution tray 1153 can be used as a support plate for crystal particles. At the same time, the gas-liquid distribution tray 1153 is connected with the air inlet pipe 116. The high-speed nitrogen enters the gas-liquid distribution tray 1153 from the air inlet pipe 116 for buffering and then uniformly enters the interior of the cylinder 100 from the gas-liquid distribution tray 1153 toward the porous gas nozzles 11931154 on the top side of the cylinder 100. The porous gas nozzles 11931154 can uniformly distribute a stream of gas into dispersed streams at various angles, which can be used for uniform entry of high-speed nitrogen gas.
[0061] The high-speed zone 1152 is alternately provided with a plurality of porous gas nozzles 11931154 on the side of the gas-liquid distribution plate 1153 close to the top of the cylinder 100 and a plurality of high-speed liquid distributors 1152a penetrating the gas-liquid distribution plate 1153. Each high-speed liquid distributor 1152a includes a concave portion 1152b located on the side of the gas-liquid distribution plate 1153 close to the top of the cylinder 100, and a plurality of gas-liquid two-phase outlets 1155 are provided on both sides of the concave portion 1152b, and the concave portion 1152b is connected with the gas-liquid distribution plate 1153 to form a channel for high-salinity wastewater to enter.
[0062] The low-speed zone 1151 is alternately provided with a plurality of porous gas nozzles 11931154 on the side of the gas-liquid distribution plate 1153 close to the top of the cylinder 100 and a plurality of low-speed liquid distributors 1151a penetrating the gas-liquid distribution plate 1153. Each low-speed liquid distributor 1151a includes an upper convex portion 1151b located on the side of the gas-liquid distribution plate 1153 close to the top of the cylinder 100, and a plurality of gas-liquid two-phase outlets 1155 are provided on both sides of the upper convex portion 1151b. The upper convex portion 1151b is connected with the gas-liquid distribution plate 1153 to form a channel for high-salt wastewater to enter. The low-speed liquid distributor 1151a adopts a raised annular gap design, which increases the kinetic energy loss of water flow when passing through; while the high-speed liquid distributor 1152a adopts a recessed annular gap design, which reduces the kinetic energy loss of water flow when passing through. The effective combination of the two allows the water flow to be differentially distributed and enter the upper space of the gas-liquid distributor 115. In addition, through the differentiated arrangement of the low-speed liquid distributor 1151a and the high-speed liquid distributor 1152a, the outer side of the cutting plane of the cylinder 100 is the low-speed zone 1151 and the inner side is the high-speed zone 1152, which encourages more seed particles to enter the circulating granulation zone 120 and regulates the seed flow direction of the circulating granulation.
[0063] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 6 It can be seen that the circulating granulation zone 120 includes a fluidized zone 121 arranged inside the cylinder 100 and a circulating zone 122 arranged between the fluidized zone 121 and the side wall of the cylinder 100. The fluidized zone 121 includes a lower guide ring 1211, a lower fluidized zone 1212, an upper fluidized zone 1213 and an upper guide ring 1214 arranged in sequence from the bottom to the top of the cylinder 100, and the diameter of the lower fluidized zone 1212 in the transverse direction is smaller than the diameter of the upper fluidized zone 1213 in the transverse direction. The larger diameter of the upper fluidized zone 1213 can help increase the cross-sectional area of the flow channel and provide more sufficient reaction space for the crystal particles; at the same time, it can reduce the drag effect of the fluid on the seed particles and prolong the residence time of the crystal particles in the upper fluidized zone 1213. The lower guide ring 1211 is an open ring with an outward closing end, which forms a larger feeding area and can control the upward moving crystal particles to preferentially enter the lower fluidizing zone 1212; while the upper guide ring 1214 is an open ring with an inward closing end, which reduces the probability of the crystal particles falling back to the fluidizing zone 121 and increases the probability of falling back to the circulation zone 122, which is beneficial for the seed particles that have risen to the junction of the circulating granulation zone 120 and the particle separation zone 130 to fall back to the circulation zone 122 faster, thereby improving the circulating crystallization efficiency.
[0064] After the crystal particles are fully grown, the high-salt wastewater in the water inlet pipe 111 is switched to clean water, and the entry of alkali solution and acidic gas is stopped. Nitrogen is introduced into the fluid mixing area 110, and the nitrogen collected at the lower part of the cylinder 100 sends the mature crystal particles to the particle separation area 130. Figure 7As shown, the three-phase separator 131 of the particle separation zone 130 separates nitrogen, wastewater and mature crystalline particles. The three-phase separator 131 includes a feed barrel 1311, and a guide vane 1312 arranged in the feed barrel 1311 to help separate nitrogen, wastewater and mature crystalline particles. The lower end of the feed barrel 1311 is connected to a discharge pipe 1313 that penetrates the side wall of the cylinder 100, and the discharge pipe 1313 is provided with a solenoid valve 1313a. The feed barrel 1311 is provided with a water outlet 1314 that penetrates the side wall of the cylinder 100 above the feed barrel 1311, and the feed barrel 1311 is also provided with an exhaust pipe 1315 that penetrates the top of the cylinder 100 and is arranged opposite to the water inlet pipe 111. The guide vane 1312 is arranged in a circle inside the feed barrel 1311 to ensure that the generated swirl shear field can meet the separation requirements.
[0065] like Figure 8 As shown, after the crystal particles attached to the sludge particles enter the feed barrel 1311 with the multiphase mixture, the fluid twists and generates a cyclonic shear field when passing through the guide plate 1312, and the mature crystal particles and the sludge particles generate revolution and rotation in the flow field. The revolution can separate the mature crystal particles and the sludge particles in the multiphase mixture, and the rotation can help the mature crystal particles and the sludge particles attached to the surface of the mature crystal particles to generate different accelerations. Under the action of the oscillating centrifugal force, the sludge particles are desorbed and removed from the surface of the mature crystal particles, and the desorbed sludge particles enter the wastewater and are discharged through the outlet 1314. The mature crystal particles are discharged from the cylinder 100 through the discharge pipe 1313 at the bottom of the feed barrel 1311 due to their own high weight, and the nitrogen leaves the cylinder 100 through the exhaust pipe 1315 at the top of the cylinder 100.
[0066] Example 2
[0067] This embodiment is based on the embodiment 1, and an aerator 118 and an atomizer 119 are added to optimize the solution. The atomizer 119 is a group of fan-shaped nozzles 1193 distributed in a circular arc shape, and the aerator 118 is a membrane type microporous aeration disk.
[0068] like Figure 4 As shown, an aerator 118 is provided between the feed pipe 114 and the internal space of the cylinder 100. The aerator 118 includes an air inlet 1181 arranged in sequence from the outside of the cylinder 100 to the inside and an air distribution membrane 1183 that helps the acidic gas to evenly enter the cylinder 100. A bottom plate 1182 that is close to the air distribution membrane 1183 is provided between the air distribution membrane 1183 and the air inlet 1181, and a microporous outlet 1183a is provided on the air distribution membrane 1183. The air distribution membrane 1183 can be replaced when necessary to ensure aeration, greatly reducing the cost of later maintenance of the equipment. Among them, the diameter of the microporous outlet 1183a is 90μm, and the ultra-fine pore size helps to generate a large number of micro-nano bubbles.
[0069] like Figure 5As shown, an atomizer 119 is arranged between the liquid inlet pipe 113 and the internal space of the cylinder 100, and the atomizer 119 includes a liquid inlet 1191 and an arc-shaped liquid guide pipe 1192 arranged in sequence from the outside to the inside of the cylinder 100, and a fan-shaped nozzle 1193 is arranged on the arc-shaped liquid guide pipe 1192. The arc-shaped liquid guide pipe 1192 allows the alkali solution to be dispersed in the circumferential direction, and is evenly sprayed out from the fan-shaped nozzle 1193 in a tangential atomization, thereby achieving the effect of the alkali solution being three-dimensionally atomized and entering the cylinder 100.
[0070] Example 2 Method of using the separation device:
[0071] (1) When the seed crystals in the cylinder 100 are in a small particle size and irregular state. The high-salinity wastewater enters from the water inlet pipe 111 and passes through the liquid vortex preventer 117. After the speed is reduced, it is dispersed through the gas-liquid distributor 115 and enters the fluid mixing zone 110. At this time, the acidic gas enters from the feed pipe 114, and is transformed into micro-nano bubbles under the action of the aerator 118 and enters the fluid mixing zone 110; the alkali solution enters from the liquid inlet pipe 113, and is transformed into dispersed small droplets under the action of the atomizer 119 and enters the fluid mixing zone 110. After the high-salinity wastewater, acidic gas, and alkali solution come into contact in the fluid mixing zone 110, the seed crystals induce the metal ions to be crystallized and the non-metallic ions or ion clusters generated by the reaction to be enriched on the surface of the seed crystals, and further react to generate compounds with low solubility to obtain crystalline particles. Among them, the acidic gas is CO2, H2S or PH3, and the gas pressure is >0.8Mpa; the alkali solution is NaOH or KOH, and the pH is >12; the high-salt wastewater is a solution containing metal ions, and the metal ions are Ca 2+ Mg 2+ , Fe 2+ , Mn 2+ 、Ni 2+ 、Cd 2+ , Pb 2+ 、Ag + , Cu 2+ 、As 3+ and Ba 2+ .
[0072] (2) The crystal particles move upward and pass through the lower fluidizing zone 1212, the upper fluidizing zone 1213, and the circulation zone 122 in sequence. They are continuously circulated and fluidized in the fluidizing zone 121 and the circulation zone 122, and the crystals grow into mature crystal particles.
[0073] Among them, the possible reaction process of acidic bubbles and alkaline droplets is as follows:
[0074]
[0075] H2S+2OH - →S 2- +2H2O
[0076]
[0077] The crystallization reaction process on the seed surface is carried out as follows:
[0078]
[0079] Cu 2+ / As 3+ +S 2- →Sulphide crystals
[0080]
[0081] (3) When a large number of mature crystalline particles appear, open the solenoid valve 1313a to discharge the residual high-salt wastewater in the cylinder 100 from the outlet 1314. Switch the high-salt wastewater in the water inlet pipe 111 to clean water, stop the entry of alkali solution and acidic gas, and introduce nitrogen into the air inlet pipe 116. The high-speed flowing gas and liquid phases are evenly dispersed in the water phase channel and the gas phase channel of the gas-liquid distributor 115, respectively, and flow into the fluid mixing area 110 to contact each other in the cylinder 100. The turbulent motion of the mixed fluid will generate strong shear stress, so that the irregular large sludge particles deposited at the bottom are dispersed into spherical sludge small particles. Under the drag of the mixed fluid, the mature crystalline particles and the small sludge particles are entrained through the circulating granulation area 120 and enter the three-phase separator 131 in the particle separation area 130, and the efficient desludging and separation recovery of the mature crystalline particles are achieved under the action of the self-revolution coupled centrifugal force of the cyclonic field. Finally, the solenoid valve 1313a is opened, the mature crystal particles are discharged from the discharge pipe 1313, the water phase containing the sludge particles is discharged from the outlet pipe, and the nitrogen is discharged from the exhaust pipe 1315.
[0082] (4) Repeat steps (1) to (3) to achieve continuous crystallization separation of metal ions in high-salinity wastewater.

[0084] In a coal gasification process with a normal processing capacity of 2500 tons of coal per hour in a gasifier, the metal ion micro-interface induced crystallization separation device for high-salt wastewater provided in Example 2 is used, and the coal gasification ash water containing high concentrations of calcium and magnesium ions is treated as high-salt wastewater according to the above-mentioned method of use. The specific operation process and effect are described as follows:
[0085] 1. Wastewater properties and related parameters
[0086] The properties and parameters of coal gasification ash water in a certain plant under liquid phase operation are shown in Table 1.
[0087] Table 1 Properties and parameters of coal gasification ash water before treatment in a certain plant
[0088]
[0089] Note: Hardness and alkalinity are measured in terms of CaCO3.
[0090] 2. Micro-interface induced crystallization separation experimental device
[0091] The cylinder diameter of the metal ion micro-interface induced crystallization separation device in high-salinity wastewater is 0.3 meters, the overall height is 2.8 meters, and the processing capacity of a single unit is 1m 3 / h. A three-phase separator is installed on the top of the separation device for efficient desliming and separation and recovery of mature crystalline particles.
[0092] 3. Implementation process
[0093] ① Fluid mixing
[0094] Refer to the above "Usage of the separation device in Example 2" section, specifically: add limestone seeds with a particle size of 40-80 mesh into the seed adding tube, the stacking height is 0.3-0.4 meters, NaOH solution (pH>12) is passed into the liquid inlet pipe, CO2 gas (pressure>0.8MPa) is passed into the feed pipe, and coal gasification ash water with the composition shown in Table 1 is passed into the water inlet pipe, with a flow rate of 1m 3 / h, the fluid rising velocity in the fluidizing zone is 40m / h, the fluid rising velocity in the circulation zone is 30m / h, and the hydraulic retention time is 10min.
[0095] ②Circular granulation
[0096] The metal ion microinterface induced crystallization separation device for high-salt wastewater was operated continuously for 3 to 5 days as described in (2) of the "Usage of the separation device in Example 2", and the coal gasification ash water with the composition shown in Table 1 remaining in the cylinder was discharged from the water outlet. The coal gasification ash water in the water inlet pipe was switched to clean water (flow rate 1m 3 / h), and stop the entry of NaOH solution and CO2 gas, and introduce nitrogen (flow rate 8m 3 / h). The running time is 10-15min, the internal pressure of the cylinder is 0.2Mpa, the separation efficiency of mature crystal particles is >98%, and the particle size range is 1-3mm.
[0097] 4. Implementation Effect
[0098] The properties and parameters of the treated coal gasification ash water are shown in Table 2 below. It can be observed that the hardness and turbidity are significantly reduced, the reduction rate of total hardness and turbidity can reach more than 85%, the COD removal rate is >55%, and the pH value and alkalinity are slightly improved. In addition, the suspended matter content of the coal gasification ash water increases after separation treatment; the reason is that the micro-nano bubbles make the colloidal particles in the ash water aggregate and grow into suspended particles, a small part of which sinks with the crystallized sediment, and most of it rises to the outlet with the ash water. Therefore, a three-phase separator is set at the end of the crystallization separation device. On the one hand, the suspended matter in the softened effluent can be removed, and on the other hand, the muddy wastewater after the mature crystal particles are desludged can be purified.
