Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of comprehensive utilization of brine resources, and particularly relates to a brine iodine extraction system and process method based on ozone oxidation and air stripping method. Background Art

[0002] Iodine, as an important strategic resource, has indispensable applications in many fields such as medicine, electronics, chemical industry, and agriculture. Extracting iodine from brine is one of the important ways to obtain iodine resources. However, there are many problems to be solved urgently in the existing brine iodine extraction technologies at present. Problem 1: Toxicity problem of oxidants Chlorine method: In traditional iodine extraction processes, chlorine ( ) is often used as an oxidant. However, chlorine has strong toxicity and corrosiveness, and there is a great risk of leakage during use. Once leakage occurs, it will pose a serious threat to the health of operators and the environment. In addition, during the process of chlorine oxidizing iodide ions, iodine monochloride ( ) will be by-produced. Iodine monochloride has special properties and requires additional treatment steps to achieve effective separation, which undoubtedly increases the complexity and cost of the process. At the same time, the tail gas contains hydrogen chloride ( ) gas, which needs to be neutralized, further increasing the treatment cost and operation difficulty. Hydrogen peroxide method: When hydrogen peroxide ( ) is used as an oxidant, its oxidation efficiency is strictly limited by the pH value of the solution. Generally, the pH value of the solution needs to be adjusted to a strong acidic condition of less than 2 to ensure a good oxidation effect. However, in actual operation, adjusting the pH value not only increases the usage amount and cost of chemical reagents, but also reduces the self-stability of hydrogen peroxide in an acidic environment, and it is easy to undergo a decomposition reaction, resulting in waste of the reagent and an increase in the cost of iodine extraction. Nitric acid method: When nitric acid ( ) is used as an oxidant, although its oxidation ability is strong, it will introduce nitrate ions ( ), which will pollute the subsequent iodine products and wastewater. Treating wastewater containing a large amount of nitrate ions requires complex processes and equipment, with high costs, and it is difficult to achieve complete purification, posing a potential hazard to the environment.

[0003] Problem 2: Low stripping efficiency Iodine molecules ( ) has a certain solubility in brine, about 0.3 g / L. When the traditional air stripping method is used to treat iodine-containing brine, due to the solubility of iodine in brine, in order to blow out the iodine element as much as possible, an extremely high gas-liquid ratio is required, usually greater than 200:1. Such a high gas-liquid ratio means that a large amount of air is consumed, which not only increases energy consumption, but also places extremely high performance requirements on equipment such as fans, resulting in a substantial increase in equipment investment. At the same time, a high gas-liquid ratio will also make the blowing tower bulky and increase the floor space, further increasing the overall operating costs. Problem 3: Absorbent limitations In the absorption process of iodine, sulfur dioxide ( ) Reduction method to absorb iodine ( However, this method has obvious limitations. During the absorption process, hydroiodic acid ( ), hydroiodic acid is highly corrosive and has extremely high requirements on equipment materials. It is necessary to use special corrosion-resistant materials to manufacture equipment, which greatly increases the equipment cost. In addition, unreacted sulfur dioxide often remains in the tail gas, and the tail gas needs to be specially treated to prevent sulfur dioxide emissions from polluting the environment, which further increases the processing cost and process complexity. With the continuous development and utilization of brine resources, the demand for efficient, environmentally friendly and low-cost brine iodine extraction technology is becoming increasingly urgent. Therefore, the development of a new type of efficient brine iodine extraction system and process based on ozone oxidation and air blowing has important practical significance and broad application prospects. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art, the present invention provides a brine iodine extraction system and process method based on ozone oxidation and air blowing method.

[0012] In the above technical solution, the electrolytic regeneration system includes an electrolytic cell for electrolytically regenerating into , and the electrolytic current density is 150-250 A / m².

[0013] In the above technical solution, the tail gas purification unit includes an activated carbon adsorption-thermal desorption tower and an alkaline solution scrubbing tower. The desorption temperature of the activated carbon adsorption-thermal desorption tower is 100-150°C, and the recovered ozone and iodine are recycled to the blowing tower.

[0014] The second object of the present invention is to provide a process for extracting iodine from brine based on ozone oxidation and air blowing method, which includes the following steps: S1. The iodine-containing brine is preliminarily pretreated through a brine pretreatment unit to remove suspended solids, impurities and some interfering examples in the brine; S2. The iodide ions in the brine are oxidized to iodine by an acidification and ozone oxidation unit; S3. The iodine in the oxidized brine is blown out through a multi-stage stripping unit, wherein: in each stage of the multi-stage stripping unit, ozone is added in segments, the temperature gradient is regulated, and the gas-liquid ratio is gradually optimized; S4.

The generated tail gas is purified through a tail gas purification unit, and the unreacted ozone and iodine are recycled to the multi-stage stripping unit.

[0015] Combining all the above technical solutions, the advantages and positive effects of the present invention are as follows: By means of technologies such as ozone addition in segments, gradient temperature-controlled stripping, recycling of absorbent regeneration, and recycling of tail gas ozone, through a multi-stage oxidation-stripping-absorption coupling design, an iodine recovery rate of ≥95%, an ozone utilization rate of ≥85%, and a 40% reduction in operating costs are achieved, and high-purity by-products can be resourcefully utilized. This system is suitable for high-salt and low-iodine brines, especially suitable for industrial iodine extraction scenarios with low iodine concentration (50-200 mg / L) and high salinity brines (such as oilfield water, salt lake brine), integrating high efficiency, environmental protection and economy.

[0016] In addition, as the creative auxiliary evidence of the present invention, it is also reflected in the following important aspects: 1. The expected benefits and commercial value after the transformation of the technical solution of the present invention are as follows: ①. Direct economic benefits: Improvement of iodine recovery rate: The iodine recovery rate is increased from 80-85% of the traditional process to ≥95%. Calculated based on an annual output of 1000 tons of iodine, the iodine output can be increased by 100-150 tons, and the annual income can be increased by about 50-75 million yuan (calculated at the market price of iodine of 500,000 yuan / ton).

[0017] Cost reduction: The operating cost is reduced from 18,000 yuan / ton of iodine to 11,000 yuan / ton, and the annual cost savings is 7 million yuan (calculated based on an annual output of 1000 tons).

[0018] By - product value - added: The by - product (purity ≥ 99%) can be sold to the disinfection and electronics industries, with an annual income increase of about 6 million yuan (calculated based on the market price of 15,000 yuan / ton and 0.8 tons of by - product iodine per ton of iodine).

[0019] ②. The technical solution of the present invention is aimed at brines with low iodine (50 - 200 mg / L) and high salt (TDS ≤ 250 g / L), and can be extended to resources such as oil - field water and salt - lake brines, covering more than 80% of the iodine extraction scenarios from brines in China.

[0020] 2. The present invention realizes the efficient iodine extraction from high - salt and low - iodine brines: The treatment efficiency of traditional technologies for brines with TDS > 200 g / L drops sharply. The present invention realizes the efficient extraction of iodine from high - salt brines (recovery rate ≥ 95%) for the first time through gradient temperature - controlled stripping (40°C → 25°C) and micro - bubble aeration technology.

[0021] 3. The technical solution of the present invention also solves the following technical problems: ①. The contradiction between iodine recovery efficiency and environmental protection: Traditional problem: The chlorine method has a relatively high iodine recovery rate but serious pollution, and the hydrogen peroxide method is environmentally friendly but has low efficiency (strong pH - dependence).

[0022] Breakthrough of the present invention: Adopting ozone oxidation (no secondary pollution) combined with absorbent regeneration ( electrolytic cycle) to achieve the dual goals of high efficiency (recovery rate ≥ 95%) and environmental protection (zero wastewater discharge).

[0023] ②. The bottleneck problem of high - salt brine treatment: Traditional problem: High salinity leads to a decrease in the activity of iodide ions, and the stripping efficiency is less than 50%.

[0024] Breakthrough of the present invention: Through micro - bubble aeration (the gas - liquid contact area is increased by 3 times) and gradient temperature control (inhibiting salt crystallization), the stripping efficiency is increased to 98%, overcoming the mass transfer limitation in a high - salt environment.

[0025] ③. The problem of uneconomical iodine extraction from high - salt brines: Traditional problem: The treatment of high - salt brines requires high pretreatment costs (such as electrodialysis desalination), and the economy is poor.

[0026] Breakthrough of the present invention: Directly treat high - salt brines (TDS ≤ 250 g / L). Through the reuse of mother liquor (the reuse rate of NaCl / NaOH is 100%) and the reuse of ozone (the utilization rate ≥ 85%), the cost per ton of iodine is reduced to 11,000 yuan, proving the feasibility of economical iodine extraction in a high - salt environment.

[0027] ④. The cost problem of ozone oxidation: Traditional problem: High energy consumption of ozone generators (≥8 kWh / kg ), making large-scale application difficult.

[0028] Breakthrough of the present invention: Using dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) technology (energy consumption ≤6 kWh / kg ), combined with a segmented dosing strategy (total amount reduced by 40%), the comprehensive ozone cost is reduced by 50% compared with the traditional chlorine method.

Compared with traditional aeration methods, the gas-liquid contact area is increased by 3 times, greatly enhancing the gas-liquid mass transfer effect, making the stripping efficiency 40% higher than that of traditional aeration, effectively improving the stripping efficiency of iodine molecules from brine. Gradual optimization of gas-liquid ratio: A gas-liquid separator is set between stages of the multi-stage stripping tower, and the gas volume is dynamically adjusted according to the stripping conditions at each stage.
