Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of industrial wastewater treatment methods, and more particularly to a method for treating manganese-containing mining and metallurgical wastewater based on catalytic oxidation self-precipitation technology using iron mineral-based materials. Background Technology
[0002] Wastewater discharged from the mining and metallurgical industries (such as manganese mining, hydrometallurgy, electrolytic manganese production, and battery material processing) often contains high concentrations of Mn. 2+ Its concentration ranges from 50 to 2000 mg / L, far exceeding the limit of 0.1 mg / L in the "Emission Standard of Pollutants for Copper, Nickel and Cobalt Industry" (GB25467-2010) and the emission requirements of the "Integrated Wastewater Discharge Standard" (GB 8978-1996).
[0003] Traditional methods for removing manganese ions include chemical precipitation, adsorption, biological methods, and advanced oxidation processes (AOPs). However, all traditional methods have significant drawbacks, such as: (1) Chemical precipitation method: This requires adding an excess of oxidant (such as potassium permanganate or chlorine) or alkali (such as NaOH) to precipitate Mn. 2+ Oxidation to MnO2 precipitate is costly (accounting for more than 60% of the treatment cost) and easily introduces heavy metal impurities; (2) Adsorption method: Relying on adsorbents such as activated carbon and molecular sieves, for high concentrations of Mn 2+ (>500 mg / L) Insufficient adsorption capacity (<50 mg / g), high regeneration frequency leads to increased operating costs; (3) Biological method: limited by the sensitivity of microorganisms to pH (requires 6.5-8.5) and temperature (20-30℃), and also by the coexistence of Fe 2+ It has poor tolerance to inhibitory substances such as COD and is difficult to consistently meet the standards; (4) Advanced oxidation methods (AOPs): such as the Fenton process and photocatalytic oxidation, although highly efficient, require the addition of H2O2, ultraviolet light sources, etc., resulting in significant energy consumption and reagent costs; ozone oxidation of Mn alone 2+ At that time, because Mn 2+ High reduction potential (E) 0 =1.23 V), direct oxidation efficiency <30%, requiring catalyst enhancement.
[0004] Existing ozone catalytic oxidation catalysts are mostly made of precious metals (Pt, Pd) or artificially synthesized materials, which suffer from problems such as complex preparation, high cost, and easy deactivation. In contrast, low-grade iron minerals (such as magnetite, hematite, goethite, and limonite) are abundant and inexpensive, and contain Fe... 2+ / Fe 3+The active sites can catalyze the decomposition of ozone into strong oxidizing species such as hydroxyl radicals (·OH), and can also participate in the oxidation-flocculation process. However, existing studies have mostly focused on the degradation of organic matter, and lack a systematic analysis of the synergistic mechanism of "catalytic oxidation-mineral phase reconstruction-self precipitation" for the deep removal of manganese ions. Furthermore, the relationship between process parameters and resource recovery has not been clarified.
[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a method for removing manganese ions from mining and metallurgical wastewater that uses iron mineral-based materials as catalysts and combines ozone oxidation with self-precipitation. Summary of the Invention

[0021] like Figure 1-3 As shown, a method for treating manganese-containing mining and metallurgical wastewater based on catalytic oxidation and self-precipitation technology using iron mineral-based materials includes the following steps: The pH of manganese-containing mining and metallurgical wastewater is pre-adjusted to 6-9 to remove non-complexed divalent manganese ions and coexisting pollutants under weakly alkaline conditions. An iron mineral-based catalyst is added to pre-treated manganese-containing mining wastewater and ozone is introduced. The ozone forms a strong oxidizing free radical under the action of the iron mineral-based catalyst. At the same time, the mineral phase of the iron mineral-based catalyst undergoes homogeneous dissolution due to reconstruction, and iron atoms are converted and released into high-valent iron. The ozone, the strong oxidizing free radical, and the high-valent iron synergistically catalyze the oxidation of complexed and non-complexed divalent manganese ions, causing the manganese ion form to transform and undergo self-precipitation. The high-priced iron bridges are connected into a network, and iron self-flocculation occurs. Manganese and iron ions undergo flocculation-coprecipitation reaction to obtain flocculated-coprecipitates. The flocculated-coprecipitate is separated in an inclined tube sedimentation tank.
[0022] In practical applications, the influent water quality conditions for manganese-containing mining and metallurgical wastewater are: Mn 2+ Concentrations range from 50 to 2000 mg / L, pH ranges from 2.0 to 7.0, water temperatures range from 10 to 35℃, and coexisting pollutants include Al. 3+ (≤100 mg / L), Fe 2+ (≤100 mg / L) and other metal ions (≤50 mg / L), SS (≤300 mg / L) and COD ≤400 mg / L.
[0023] In practical applications, the steps for pre-adjusting the pH of manganese-containing mining and metallurgical wastewater are as follows: add acid or alkali to the manganese-containing mining and metallurgical wastewater to adjust the pH to 6-9. When the original water pH is <6, add sodium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, or sodium carbonate; when the original water pH is >9, add sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, or nitric acid.

The specific surface area of the low-grade porous iron mineral-based catalyst is 10-50 m². 2 / g, total iron content ≥40%, of which active Fe 2+ It accounts for 10%-30%.
[0027] In practical applications, ozone is introduced into manganese-containing mining wastewater with pre-adjusted pH. Ozone molecules undergo directional and efficient conversion under the action of iron mineral-based catalysts, forming strong oxidizing free radicals, which significantly improves ozone utilization efficiency and extends the half-life oxidation time.
[0028] In practical applications, the conversion of ozone into strong oxidizing free radicals is the process of ozone (O3) reacting with iron-based mineral catalysts in the Fe... 2+ / Fe 3+ Under the influence of the active site, a chain reaction occurs, resulting in the directional conversion of hydroxyl radicals (·OH, E). 0 =2.80V), superoxide radicals (·O2) - E 0 =-0.33V), singlet oxygen ( 1 O2, E 0 =2.42V).

[0035] In practical applications, homogeneous reconstruction of iron mineral-based catalysts refers to the heterogeneous dissolution of the original crystalline phase of the catalyst, such as Fe3O4 and α-Fe2O3, under the continuous action of ozone / free radicals. During the reconstruction process, Fe on the catalyst surface dissolves in ionic or colloidal form and dissociates into amorphous Fe(OH)3 and γ-FeOOH. After reconstruction, the proportion of amorphous iron increases to more than 50%.
[0036] In practical applications, the high-priced iron bridging network refers to the following: multi-form Fe leached from the homogeneous dissolution of the mineral phase is bridged by hydroxyl groups to form "-Fe-O-Fe-". The "-Fe-O-Fe-" network traps MnO2 particles, heavy metal ions and residual suspended matter generated by oxidation, forming a three-dimensional network aggregate floc. After trapping the MnO2 particles, heavy metal ions and residual suspended matter generated by oxidation, the average particle size of the floc increases to 0.5-2 mm, and the settling velocity is ≥1.5 cm / min.
