Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of resource recycling and chemical separation technology, and in particular to a calcium chloride extraction system and process for waste incineration fly ash washing liquid. Background Technology

[0002] The existing technology has the following technical problems: 1. Lack of ammonia removal process: Existing technologies, such as the Chinese patent application number CN202221223021 "A pretreatment device for fly ash washing liquid", do not remove ammonia from the fly ash washing liquid and directly evaporate it. On the one hand, this leads to the emission of ammonia into the atmosphere and causes pollution. On the other hand, the presence of ammonium salts (NH4Cl / NH4NO3) in the original solution will greatly affect the purity of calcium chloride products.

[0003] 2. Limitations of mixed salt separation technology: When potassium chloride (KCl), sodium chloride (NaCl), and calcium chloride (CaCl2) coexist in a solution, the calcium chloride product obtained by directly evaporating and cooling crystallizing generally contains impurities such as potassium and sodium salts that exceed the standard requirements (calcium chloride purity is less than 90%). Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a calcium chloride extraction system and process for waste incineration fly ash washing liquid. The system reduces the interference of impurity ions on subsequent salt separation through ammonia removal pretreatment, improves particle characteristics through high-temperature drying, optimizes surface charge through low-temperature complexation, achieves precise separation of potassium, sodium and calcium salts through electrostatic separation, and reduces carbon emissions by combining ammonia recycling technology.

[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of the present invention is achieved through the following technical solution: A calcium chloride extraction system for fly ash washing liquid from waste incineration is characterized by comprising an air stripping tower, a pH adjustment tank, a filter press, a double-effect forced circulation evaporator, a single-effect forced circulation evaporator, a DTB crystallizer, a dryer, a single-effect forced circulation evaporator, a fluidized bed, an electrostatic separator, a heating furnace, and three sets of centrifuges, namely a first centrifuge, a second centrifuge, and a third centrifuge. The air stripping tower is provided with a fly ash washing liquid inlet, and the liquid outlet of the air stripping tower is connected to the pH adjustment tank, which is connected to the filter press. The filter press has a clear liquid outlet connected to a double-effect forced circulation evaporator. The double-effect forced circulation evaporator, the first centrifuge, the first-effect forced circulation evaporator, the second centrifuge, the DTB crystallizer, the third centrifuge, and the single-effect forced circulation evaporator are connected in sequence. The salt outlets of the second and third centrifuges are connected to a dryer. The outlet of the dryer and the ammonia outlet of the air stripping tower are both connected to a fluidized bed. The fluidized bed is also connected to an electrostatic separator. The electrostatic separator is connected to a heating furnace. The ammonia outlet of the heating furnace is connected to the fluidized bed.

[0006] Preferably, an ammonia storage tank is also connected between the air stripping tower and the fluidized bed, and the ammonia gas from the air stripping tower enters the fluidized bed after passing through the ammonia storage tank.

[0007] Preferably, a buffer tank is also connected between the filter press and the double-effect forced circulation evaporator, and the filter press is provided with a heavy metal sludge outlet.

[0008] Preferably, the first centrifuge is provided with a sodium chloride outlet, the electrostatic separator is provided with potassium chloride and sodium chloride outlets, and the heating furnace is provided with an anhydrous calcium chloride outlet.

[0009] A process for extracting calcium chloride from waste incineration fly ash washing liquid includes the following steps: The fly ash washing liquid enters the air stripping tower for ammonia removal, then enters the pH adjustment tank to adjust the pH, and finally enters the filter press to filter out insoluble matter to obtain a clear liquid. The clear liquid enters the double-effect forced circulation evaporator for evaporation and crystallization. After reaching the preset density, it enters the first centrifuge to obtain the first crystalline salt and the first centrifugal mother liquor. The first crystalline salt is packaged as a de-icing agent. The first centrifugal mother liquor enters a single-effect forced circulation evaporator for further evaporation. After reaching the preset density, it enters a second centrifuge to obtain the second crystalline salt and the second centrifugal mother liquor, respectively. The second centrifugal mother liquor enters the DTB crystallizer for cooling and crystallization. The third crystalline salt and the third centrifugal mother liquor are obtained by centrifugation of the second centrifuge. The third centrifugal mother liquor is concentrated by evaporation in a single-effect forced circulation evaporator and then spray-dried to obtain anhydrous calcium chloride with a purity of over 95%. The second and third crystallized salts are mixed and fed into a dryer for drying and dehydration. After being cooled by dehumidified cold air, they are fully contacted with the ammonia gas produced by the deammoniation of the air stripping tower in a fluidized bed at room temperature to generate octaammonia calcium chloride. The powder is then separated in an electrostatic separator to obtain a high-purity mixture of octaammonia calcium chloride, potassium chloride, and sodium chloride. High-purity octaammonium calcium chloride is heated and decomposed in a furnace to obtain high-purity anhydrous calcium chloride and ammonia gas. The ammonia gas is then refluxed back into the fluidized bed.

[0010] Preferably, a 32% hydrochloric acid solution is added to the pH adjustment tank to adjust the pH to 9.

[0011] Preferably, the boiling point in the double-effect forced circulation evaporator is controlled at 115~122℃, the density range is 1.18~1.25g / ml, and the sodium chloride mass fraction in the first crystalline salt is >94%.

[0012] Preferably, the boiling point in the first-effect forced circulation evaporator is controlled at 122~130℃, the density range is 1.22~1.29g / ml, and the total mass fraction of potassium chloride and calcium chloride in the second crystalline salt is 10~20%.

[0013] Preferably, the cooling crystallization temperature of the DTB crystallizer is 33~39°C, and the mass fraction of potassium chloride in the third crystallized salt is 50~60%.

[0014] Preferably, the drying temperature of the dryer is 300℃, and the voltage range of the electrostatic separator is 10~15kV.

[0015] In summary, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. This invention improves the purity of calcium chloride products by adding an ammonia removal process and using an air stripping tower to separate precipitates containing heavy metals and ammonium salts. The ammonium salt removal rate is ≥99.3%.

[0016] 2. This invention uses an electrostatic separation process to input powder into a high-voltage electric field. KCl, NaCl (positively charged) and octaammonium chloride (negatively charged) are collected on both sides of the electrode, effectively separating the solid mixed salts. The final calcium chloride obtained has a purity of ≥98%.

[0017] 3. This invention recycles the ammonia gas generated by the air stripping tower and the heating furnace, thereby effectively reducing carbon emissions. Attached Figure Description
