Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of flue gas treatment, in particular to a device and method for producing potassium sulfate and nitrogen-potassium fertilizer from flue gas desulfurization. BACKGROUND

[0002] As an important category of inorganic salts, potassium sulfate is widely used in agriculture, chemical industry and pharmaceutical field. It is particularly important in agriculture: not only provides essential potassium elements for crops, but also rich in sulfur, which is the core component of plant synthesis of amino acids, proteins and coenzymes. For economic crops such as tobacco, citrus and grape, which are sensitive to chlorine, the application of chlorine-free potassium sulfate can significantly improve the quality and stress resistance of fruits, and is the preferred fertilizer for high-end agriculture. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop efficient and low-cost potassium sulfate preparation technology.

[0003] In the existing production process, although the Mannheim method (high-temperature double decomposition reaction) is mature, it has problems such as high energy consumption (≥1.8 tons of coal per ton of product), serious equipment corrosion and difficult treatment of by-product hydrochloric acid; the potassium ore extraction method and the bitter brine method are difficult to scale due to resource distribution. In contrast, the double decomposition conversion method using ammonium sulfate and potassium chloride as raw materials has attracted much attention due to its easy availability of raw materials and resource utilization of by-product (ammonium chloride). However, this process still faces multiple technical bottlenecks:

[0004] The process proposed by Chinese patent CN93103865.0 adds cationic fatty amine compounds in the reaction, which increases the cost investment, and involves enrichment and separation problems caused by the added substances, which is not conducive to industrial production.

[0005] Chinese patent CN97112031.5 introduces a method for crystallizing and precipitating main product potassium sulfate by cooling, but the potassium conversion rate is only 70%, the resource utilization rate is low, and the evaporation and concentration process has high energy consumption, resulting in rising production cost.

[0006] The potassium sulfate preparation method based on two-stage conversion process proposed by Chinese patent CN201410598258.6 can produce potassium sulfate products with potassium oxide content of more than 50%, but the specific conversion rate is not specified, and the multiple washing and separation cause insufficient mother liquor circulation efficiency, resulting in resource waste, lack of high-value application of by-product potassium chloride, and limited economic benefit.
