Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of preparation of iron oxide series pigments, and relates to a method for preparing iron oxide series pigments by waste water of sulfuric acid pickling of steel and iron oxide series pigments. Background Art

[0002] The sulfuric acid pickling waste liquid in the steel industry mainly comes from the pickling process in the steel production process. In steel production, pickling treatment is often carried out to remove the oxide layer and impurities on the surface of steel. In this process, the acid solution will form a pickling waste liquid containing a large amount of metal ions and other pollutants after contacting the steel. These waste liquids mainly contain iron ions, acid substances and a small amount of other metal ions. The iron in these pickling waste liquids is usually in the form of divalent iron ions (Fe 2+ ) exists in the form of , if it is discharged directly without treatment, it will cause pollution to the environment, so it needs to be treated to meet the emission standards or resource utilization, so as to reduce the harm to the environment. At present, the methods for treating pickling waste liquid mainly include membrane separation technology, acid-base neutralization, high-temperature roasting and biological method. Membrane separation technology is a treatment method with high environmental benefits. It can separate metal salts or utilize metal salts as resources to prepare high value-added products, but the frequent replacement of membranes will lead to high operating costs; the traditional acid-base neutralization method is simple and fast, but the treated sludge solid waste is difficult to handle and is prone to secondary pollution, which cannot achieve the purpose of resource treatment of waste liquid; separation technologies such as high-temperature roasting and biological method have many uncertain problems, such as high energy consumption of high-temperature roasting and inactivation of microorganisms in biological method. Therefore, the preparation of iron oxide pigments by chemical conversion of sulfuric acid pickling waste liquid in the steel industry provides an economically feasible idea for the resource treatment of steel pickling waste liquid.

[0003] Iron oxide pigments have a wide range of applications and are mainly used in coatings, plastics, rubber and other industries. They not only improve product color, but also have good weather resistance and stability. If iron oxide pigments can be prepared using sulfuric acid pickling wastewater from steel, the dual goals of sulfuric acid pickling wastewater treatment and resource recovery can be achieved.

[0004] Coprecipitation is a chemical conversion method that can be used to prepare ultrafine powders of composite oxides containing two or more metal elements. This method can also be used to prepare iron oxide. Usually, this method involves mixing divalent and trivalent metal salts in a certain molar ratio and then placing them in an alkaline solution. The precipitation rate and precipitation properties can be controlled by adjusting the pH value of the solution. After the reaction, the precipitate product is collected and washed and dried to obtain an iron oxide pigment. By adjusting the reaction conditions and the type and ratio of metal salts, the morphology, size and magnetic properties of the iron oxide pigment particles can be controlled to make it suitable for different application fields. However, the traditional coprecipitation method usually requires a higher temperature (>80°C) and a longer time (1 to 2h) during the preparation process, and additional substances need to be added to promote the reaction. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] In order to better understand the above technical solution of the present invention, the technical solution of the present invention is further described below in conjunction with embodiments.

[0029] Combination Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a method for preparing iron oxide pigments from steel sulfuric acid pickling waste liquid, comprising the following steps:

[0030] S1, filtering the steel sulfuric acid pickling waste liquid through medium-speed filter paper to remove solid impurities;

[0031] This step is mainly to remove impurities in the solution. The steel sulfuric acid pickling waste liquid is used as raw material and filtered using medium-speed filter paper to remove solid impurities in the steel sulfuric acid pickling waste liquid.

[0032] The steel sulfuric acid pickling waste liquid used in this step has the appearance of a dark green liquid, a pH value of 0.2-0.9, and a sulfate ion concentration of 160-180 g / L; these steel sulfuric acid pickling waste liquids mainly contain iron ions, acid substances and a small amount of other metal ions.

[0033] S2, co-precipitation, adjusting the pH value of the steel sulfuric acid pickling waste liquid with a NaOH solution, then placing the steel sulfuric acid pickling waste liquid after the pH value is adjusted in a water bath for heating and stirring, and then naturally cooling;

[0034] The coprecipitation method is a method for synthesizing ferrite nanoparticles. In this step, the filtered steel sulfuric acid pickling waste liquid is adjusted to a pH value of 8-10 (preferably a pH value of 9.0) using a NaOH solution (whose concentration can be 5 mol / L); then the steel sulfuric acid pickling waste liquid after the pH value is adjusted is placed in a water bath at 50-80°C (preferably a reaction temperature of 55°C) and heated and stirred for 0.5-1.5h (preferably a reaction time of 30min), and then cooled naturally after the reaction is completed.

[0035] S3, performing solid-liquid separation on the steel sulfuric acid pickling waste liquid treated in step S2 to obtain a solid phase precipitate and a supernatant, and the solid phase precipitate is washed, dried, ground, and sieved to obtain an iron oxide pigment.

[0036] In this step, a centrifuge is used to separate the cooled steel sulfuric acid pickling waste liquid into solid and liquid at a centrifugal speed of 3000-3500 r / min for 10-15 minutes until a solid precipitate and a supernatant are obtained; the solid precipitate is washed with warm water at 50-60°C for at least 3 times, and then dried at a temperature of 70-90°C for 24±5h, and then ground after drying, and the product iron oxide pigment is obtained after passing through a 45μm filter.

[0037] In this step, the supernatant was tested by ICP, and the removal rates of Mn, Fe, Zn, and Ni metal ions in the supernatant were all above 99.9%.

[0038] The present invention uses a coprecipitation method to treat steel sulfuric acid pickling waste liquid, converts the iron in the steel sulfuric acid pickling waste liquid into qualified iron oxide pigments, and at the same time, the removal rate of metal ions such as Mn, Fe, Zn, Ni in the waste liquid reaches more than 99.9%, which greatly improves the effluent water quality and significantly reduces its harm to the environment. The core of the above coprecipitation method is to mix iron ions with alkaline solvents under appropriate conditions to promote their precipitation to form solid phase products; by adjusting the reaction conditions such as pH value, temperature, time, etc., the steel sulfuric acid pickling waste liquid finally reacts to generate iron oxide pigments. The present invention can achieve the dual goals of sulfuric acid pickling waste liquid treatment and resource recovery, thereby improving the sustainable development level of the steel industry and promoting green manufacturing and environmental protection.
