Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of potassium-containing waste salt treatment, and particularly to a method for removing organic matter from potassium sulfate waste salt. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, the sources of potassium-containing waste salt in China are extensive and the total amount is increasing continuously. The "National List of Hazardous Wastes" has listed the waste salt generated in industries such as pesticides and biopharmaceuticals as hazardous wastes. If not properly treated, it will directly cause pollution to natural environments such as surface water, groundwater, and soil. At present, waste salt is mainly treated by methods such as building storage facilities for centralized temporary storage, incineration, and rigid landfill, facing high storage and treatment costs that are difficult for enterprises to bear. At the same time, China has a problem of lack of potassium resources. Therefore, potassium-containing industrial waste salt can be used as an important resource raw material. Recycling potassium-containing waste salt can not only eliminate its environmental pollution but also make full use of salt resources to achieve the resource utilization and circular utilization of salt.

[0003] At present, the main methods for harmless removal of organic matter from waste salt are pyrolysis carbonization method, high-temperature melting method, and oxidation method.

[0004] The pyrolysis carbonization method utilizes the thermal instability of organic matter to decompose and carbonize the organic matter in waste salt under anaerobic or anoxic conditions, decomposing it into volatile gases and carbon slag, so as to achieve the purpose of removing organic impurities in waste salt. Patent CN109882854A discloses a method for high-temperature pyrolysis and harmless treatment of industrial waste salt using suspension incineration technology, which uses a suspension incinerator to replace the commonly used heat pipe pyrolysis furnace for industrial waste salt treatment. This method has the advantages of less flue gas pollution and recyclable carbon. However, due to the need to control the pyrolysis method under anaerobic or anoxic conditions and the operating temperature needs to be lower than the melting point of waste miscellaneous salt, the application range of this method is limited.

[0005] The high-temperature melting treatment method removes the organic matter in industrial waste salt in a molten state at a high temperature of 800 - 1200 °C, and the removal effect of organic matter is better. The high-temperature melting method treats waste salt at a higher reaction temperature than the pyrolysis carbonization method, effectively avoiding the disadvantage of the pyrolysis carbonization method being prone to bonding with refractory materials and improving the purity of waste salt. Patent CN112591767A discloses a method for high-temperature melting and oxidation treatment of chemical industrial waste salt, including melting and enhanced oxidation of molten salt. By means of enhanced mass transfer, the contact between organic matter and oxidizing substances is enhanced, and the chemical industrial waste salt is converted into raw materials used by chlor-alkali enterprises to achieve closed-loop recycling. However, due to the high energy consumption of the high-temperature melting method, it usually requires waste heat recovery and utilization of high-temperature flue gas, increasing equipment investment costs. At the same time, the particles entrained in the flue gas will significantly reduce the waste salt resource utilization rate.

[0006] The oxidation method refers to the use of oxidants to oxidize the hardly degradable organic matter in waste salts, which can quickly remove toxic and harmful organic matter, has good effects on the degradation of most organic pollutants, and has the advantages of rapid reaction and no secondary pollution. However, the application of this method is also subject to certain limitations, and has disadvantages such as high cost and small treatment scale.

[0007] At present, there is no method for removing organic matter from potassium sulfate waste salts with low equipment investment, strong operability and wide application range. Summary of the Invention

[0008] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for removing organic matter from potassium sulfate waste salts to achieve the harmless treatment and resource utilization of potassium sulfate waste salts.

[0009] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions: A method for removing organic matter from potassium sulfate waste salts, comprising the following steps:

[0010] S1: Mix potassium sulfate waste salts with a potassium persulfate solution to obtain oxidized potassium sulfate waste salts;

[0011] S2: Mix the oxidized potassium sulfate waste salts with a saturated potassium sulfate solution and stir and wash;

[0012] S3: Dry the wet salts obtained after stirring and washing to a constant weight to obtain potassium sulfate products.

[0013] Preferably, the potassium persulfate solution in step S1 is an aqueous potassium persulfate solution, and the concentration of the potassium persulfate solution is 50wt%-90wt%.

[0014] Preferably, the addition amount of the potassium persulfate solution in step S1 is 0.5wt%-5wt% of the treatment amount of potassium sulfate waste salts.

[0015] Preferably, the mixing time of the potassium sulfate waste salts and the potassium persulfate solution in step S1 is 0.3-1h.

[0016] Preferably, the mixing temperature of the potassium sulfate waste salts and the potassium persulfate solution in step S1 is normal temperature.

[0017] Preferably, in step S2, the mixture obtained by mixing the potassium sulfate waste salts and the potassium persulfate solution in step S1 is mixed with a saturated potassium sulfate solution for stirring and washing.

[0018] Preferably, the temperature of the saturated potassium sulfate solution in step S2 is 5-40°C.

[0019] Preferably, the mixing temperature in step S2 is 5-40°C.

[0020] Preferably, the stirring and washing time in step S2 is 0.5h-5h.

[0021] Preferably, the pH value of the potassium sulfate saturated solution in step S2 is 1-6, and the pH value of the solution is adjusted by sulfuric acid and / or potassium hydroxide.

[0022] Preferably, the potassium sulfate saturated solution in step S2 is an aqueous solution of potassium sulfate saturated.

[0023] Preferably, the drying temperature of the wet salt in step S3 is 80°C - 150°C.

[0024] Preferably, after stirring and washing in step S2, the wet salt and the washing mother liquor are obtained by centrifugal separation. The wet salt is repeatedly washed with the potassium sulfate saturated solution several times to obtain the wet salt described in step S3.

[0025] More preferably, the rotation speed of the centrifugal separation is 3000 r / min - 8000 r / min, and the separation time is 5 min - 10 min.

[0026] More preferably, a part of the washing mother liquor is recycled as the potassium sulfate saturated solution, and the remaining part is evaporated and concentrated, cooled and crystallized, and the solid phase produced by centrifugal separation is re-entered as the potassium sulfate waste salt into step S1.

[0027] Preferably, the potassium sulfate waste salt contains organic impurities such as acetonitrile, acetic acid, dichloroethane, ethylene glycol, and isopropanol.

[0028] Since dichloroethane is insoluble in water, if the ordinary cold washing process is directly adopted, the impurities of the waste salt cannot be effectively removed. The present invention proposes to add the oxidant potassium persulfate during the cold washing process, so that dichloroethane is oxidized into water-soluble organic matters such as carboxylic acids and can be removed by cold washing.

[0029] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0033] 4. The present invention can efficiently recover potassium sulfate in the waste salt, and the addition of potassium persulfate during the treatment process can also increase the content of potassium sulfate, realizing the resource utilization of the product, which meets the national environmental protection requirements;

[0034] 5. The process of the present invention is simple and effective, does not involve high-temperature and high-pressure equipment, does not generate acidic harmful gases, and can achieve clean discharge of the three wastes;

[0035] 6. The present invention adopts the technology of oxidation first and then cold washing, which solves the problem that the cold washing process alone cannot remove the water-insoluble organic matter;

[0036] 7. Since the present invention adopts the method of low-temperature oxidation plus cold washing, the energy consumption and equipment requirements are low. It not only saves the equipment investment cost, but also has strong operability and high safety, and has a wide range of applications. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
