Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of wastewater treatment, and more particularly to a pretreatment method for high-salt organic and heavy metal wastewater. Background Technology

[0002] The extraction wastewater from the ternary lithium battery industry is complex, classified as high-salt, organic, and heavy metal wastewater. Its treatment process is lengthy and challenging, and conventional biological methods are insufficient for effective treatment. With increasingly stringent environmental regulations, the recovery of inorganic salt resources and achieving zero wastewater discharge are gradually becoming necessary conditions for industry access or environmental impact assessment approval in the ternary lithium battery industry. Organic matter and heavy metals in the wastewater can affect the crystal form, yield, and whiteness of inorganic salt products, and can also cause scaling in evaporation and salt extraction equipment. Therefore, it is essential to conduct proper pretreatment of the extraction wastewater from the ternary lithium battery industry to remove heavy metals and organic matter.

[0003] High-salt organic heavy metal wastewater originating from the extraction wastewater of the ternary lithium battery industry contains large amounts of sulfate ions, chloride ions, and heavy metal nickel ions. Pretreatment of nickel ions in this wastewater is necessary. Neutralization precipitation is a conventional method for removing nickel from wastewater. Generally, adjusting the pH to above 9 with an alkaline precipitant and performing a precipitation reaction can achieve a nickel removal rate of over 90%. However, due to the complex composition of high-salt organic heavy metal wastewater, excessive alkaline precipitants are often required for nickel removal, and even with excessive precipitants, it is still difficult to achieve the same nickel removal rate as conventional neutralization precipitation. Furthermore, during the pretreatment of high-salt organic heavy metal wastewater, a large amount of organic matter also needs to be removed beforehand to ensure subsequent advanced treatment.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a pretreatment method for high-salt organic heavy metal wastewater to solve or at least alleviate the technical problem of how to pre-remove heavy metal nickel and organic matter from high-salt organic heavy metal wastewater. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The main objective of this invention is to provide a pretreatment method for high-salt organic heavy metal wastewater, aiming to solve the aforementioned technical problem of how to pre-remove heavy metal nickel and organic matter from high-salt organic heavy metal wastewater.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a pretreatment method for high-salt organic heavy metal wastewater, comprising the following steps: S1, ozone catalytic oxidation of heavy metal wastewater, followed by solid-liquid separation to obtain oxidized effluent; The heavy metal wastewater contains sulfate ions, chloride ions, and nickel ions. The COD of the heavy metal wastewater is 500~1000 mg / L, the TOC is 100~300 mg / L, and the pH of the heavy metal wastewater is 4~5. The ozone catalytic oxidation includes: adding an ozone catalyst to the heavy metal wastewater, and introducing ozone into the heavy metal wastewater; S2, neutralize and precipitate the oxidized effluent, and obtain precipitated effluent after solid-liquid separation; The neutralization precipitation includes: adjusting the pH of the oxidized effluent to 10-12 using an alkaline precipitant before carrying out the precipitation reaction.

[0007] Furthermore, in the heavy metal wastewater, the concentration of sulfate ions is 50~150 g / L, the concentration of chloride ions is 5~20 g / L, and the concentration of nickel ions is 100~500 mg / L.

[0008] Furthermore, the ozone is introduced into the heavy metal wastewater for 0.5 to 3 hours.

[0009] Furthermore, during the process of introducing ozone into the heavy metal wastewater, the ozone introduction rate is 10~100 mg / min; During the process of introducing ozone into the heavy metal wastewater, the circulation of the heavy metal wastewater is controlled.

[0010] Furthermore, the ozone catalyst includes a support and an active component supported on the support; the active component includes one or more of a single metal and a composite metal.

[0011] Furthermore, the solid-liquid ratio of the ozone catalyst and the heavy metal wastewater is 0.02~0.4 g / mL.

[0012] Furthermore, the alkaline precipitant includes lime milk; the mass concentration of the lime milk is 8-12%.

[0013] Furthermore, the lime slurry is prepared using calcium oxide; the ratio of calcium oxide to the heavy metal wastewater is 1~2 g / L.

[0014] Furthermore, the pH of the oxidized effluent is adjusted to 11-12 using the alkaline precipitant before the precipitation reaction is carried out.

[0015] Furthermore, the precipitation reaction takes 0.5 to 2 hours.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following advantages: This invention addresses high-salt, organic-laden, and heavy-metal wastewater, enabling the pre-removal of heavy metals like nickel and organic matter, reducing COD and TOC values, and achieving significant nickel removal with relatively low reagent dosage. The invention utilizes ozone catalytic oxidation followed by neutralization and precipitation. This not only pre-removes organic matter but also significantly raises the pH of the oxidized effluent to 8-9, reducing the required pH increase for neutralization and precipitation and conserving alkaline precipitant dosage. Furthermore, ozone catalytic oxidation also breaks down complexes, further improving heavy metal removal and reagent utilization. After ozone catalytic oxidation, the invention allows for significant nickel removal at even lower pH conditions, further reducing the amount of alkaline precipitant needed and increasing the nickel removal rate.

[0023] As an illustration of other prior art, Chinese invention patent application CN103043834A discloses a wastewater treatment process for rare earth smelting, which belongs to the treatment scheme for high-salt organic heavy metal wastewater from rare earth smelting. It employs a combined wastewater treatment process of "micro-electrolysis-dephosphorization-heavy metal removal-advanced oxidation," achieving compliant wastewater discharge. However, this process generates a large amount of slag and wastes valuable metals and inorganic salts in the wastewater.

[0030] In some embodiments of the present invention, ozone is introduced into the heavy metal wastewater for 0.5 to 3 hours, more specifically 1.5 to 2 hours, 1.4 to 1.6 hours, or 1.9 to 2.1 hours; the ozone catalytic oxidation of the present invention is carried out at room temperature.

[0031] In some embodiments of the present invention, during the process of introducing ozone into the heavy metal wastewater, the ozone introduction rate is 10~100 mg / min, and more specifically 20~30 mg / min; in the present invention, the ozone generator may be a gas source generator or an electrochemical generator.

[0032] In this invention, during the process of introducing ozone into the heavy metal wastewater, the circulation of the heavy metal wastewater is controlled; specifically, the water circulation reaction is achieved through a pump.

[0033] In this invention, after ozone catalytic oxidation, the pH of the oxidized effluent is 8-9, further 8.5-9, and further 8.5-8.7; compared with the heavy metal wastewater, the pH is significantly increased.

[0034] S2, the oxidized effluent is neutralized and precipitated, and the precipitated effluent is obtained after solid-liquid separation.

[0035] In this invention, the neutralization precipitation includes: adjusting the pH of the oxidized effluent to 10-12 using an alkaline precipitant before carrying out the precipitation reaction.
