Detailed Implementation

[0020] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] This invention provides a process for treating water from a phosphogypsum slag disposal site based on a membrane-coupled chemical reactor, comprising the following steps: The phosphogypsum slag site water is treated through a first-stage membrane coupled chemical reactor to induce the selective formation of calcium fluoride precipitate by fluoride ions, and the mud and water are separated to obtain acidic fluoride-containing mud and first-stage permeate. The first-stage permeate is treated by a second-stage membrane-coupled chemical reactor to generate dicalcium phosphate and silicate precipitates, and the mud and water are separated to obtain neutral phosphorus-containing silica mud and second-stage permeate. The second-stage permeate is treated through a third-stage membrane-coupled chemical reactor to produce magnesium ammonium phosphate and calcium fluorophosphate precipitates, separating the sludge and water to obtain alkaline nitrogen- and phosphorus-containing sludge and third-stage permeate. Membrane-coupled chemical reactors include, but are not limited to, reaction tanks and membrane filters; The membrane filter is equipped with a multi-ring pulse airflow disturbance device above the bottom sludge hopper; The water inlet to the membrane filter enters the tank tangentially along the inner wall of the tank, thereby creating a cleaning effect by rinsing the surface of the membrane tube. Sludge-water separation includes sludge-water separation via membrane filters.

[0022] The process of this invention generates precipitates of different components through multi-stage chemical reactions, and then achieves mud-water separation through multi-stage membrane filters. The tangential flow design inside the membrane filters and the multi-ring pulsed airflow disturbance device facilitate the hydraulic flushing and shedding of the mud cake layer on the surface of the membrane tubes.

[0023] The process of this invention not only has a low membrane fouling rate and a membrane flux decline rate of <5% / day, reducing the cleaning frequency to once a month, but also achieves thorough resource recovery of valuable elements, high product purity, and the value of the resource-recovered products per ton of water treated exceeds the treatment cost. It realizes water resource recycling, generates no solid waste, and has significant environmental benefits.

[0024] The process of this invention can produce calcium fluoride sludge with a purity of 40%-60%, calcium hydrogen phosphate sludge with a purity of 80%-95%, and magnesium ammonium phosphate sludge with a purity of 80%-90%. 80% of the wastewater is converted into high-quality reclaimed water with a conductivity of <100µS / cm, and 20% of the concentrate contains industrial-grade sulfate with a purity of over 99%.

[0025] In this invention, a membrane-coupled chemical reactor resistant to high concentrations of suspended solids is introduced as the core of the treatment process. By combining chemical reactions with high-precision filtration, the problems of low mud-water separation efficiency and severe membrane fouling in conventional processes can be solved.

[0026] In a preferred embodiment, the bottom of the reaction tank can be a conical mud hopper with a cone angle of 40°-70°, which is more conducive to the accumulation of mud cake falling off the membrane surface and more thorough mud removal.

[0027] In a preferred embodiment, the inlet pipe of the membrane filter enters the tank along the tangential direction of the inner wall of the tank. Alternatively, a tangential guide vane can be installed at the vertical tangential inlet.

[0028] In this invention, the inlet and outlet of the tangential guide plate are both welded inside the tank; the inlet of the tangential guide plate is aligned with the water inlet, and the outlet is aligned with the tangential direction of the inner wall of the tank. Meanwhile, the material of the tangential guide vane can be the same as that of the tank body.

[0029] The tangential flow water inlet design of this invention changes the water inlet direction of the traditional vertical tank tangent, which is more conducive to the hydraulic flushing and shedding of the mud cake layer on the surface of the membrane tube.

[0031] In a preferred embodiment, the diameter of the annular aeration pipe can be 5mm-200mm, for example, 40mm, 80mm, or 100mm, but is not limited thereto; the spacing between each annular aeration pipe can be 50mm-500mm, for example, 100mm, 300mm, or 400mm, but is not limited thereto. The smaller the spacing, the fewer dead corners that the multi-ring pulse airflow disturbance device cannot reach, and the more thorough the membrane module cleaning.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment, each annular aeration pipe may be equipped with two rows of jet nozzles angled downwards at 45° to the vertical. The jetting frequency is synchronized with the backwashing cycle, and pulse aeration is performed sequentially from the outer ring to the inner ring. The air pressure can be 0.1MPa-0.3MPa, which is more conducive to the formation of turbulence on the membrane surface, thereby more thoroughly removing the mud cake layer and pollutants on the membrane surface.

[0033] In this invention, the outlet of the reaction tank of the membrane coupled chemical reactor is connected to the inlet of the inlet pump, and the outlet of the inlet pump is connected to the inlet of the membrane filter.

The operation includes, but is not limited to, filtration, backwashing, sludge discharge, and venting. After filtration for 1 min to 60 min, pulse backwashing is performed for 1 s to 60 s, and sludge discharge is performed for 1 h to 4 h.

[0035] In a preferred embodiment, the membrane-coupled chemical reactor may also be equipped with membrane fouling monitoring instruments and a chemical cleaning system for automatically identifying backwashing and chemical cleaning cycles, with a membrane flux decay rate of <5% / day.

[0036] This invention employs a three-step sequential process for recovering fluorine via acid, phosphorus and silicon via neutral reaction, and nitrogen and magnesium via alkaline reaction. The entire process can be automated using a central control system. Firstly, each reactor stage is equipped with online pH monitoring, and a PID algorithm is used to control the lime slurry dosage, ensuring pH fluctuations are within ±0.2. Secondly, the transmembrane pressure difference and flux decay rate are linked as dual parameters to trigger backwashing or chemical cleaning procedures. Thirdly, the mud concentration and composition are analyzed online, and feedback is used to adjust reagent dosage and reaction time. This allows for more thorough resource conversion, avoids co-precipitation, and thus results in higher product purity.

[0054] Compared with Example 1, the drawback of this comparative example is that calcium fluoride and calcium hydrogen phosphate are completely mixed together, and calcium fluoride becomes an impurity that affects the purity of calcium hydrogen phosphate, reducing the purity of calcium hydrogen phosphate by 50%. In addition, calcium fluoride partially dissolves in a slightly alkaline environment, which is not conducive to the removal of fluoride ions from water.

[0055] Comparative Example 2 The only difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that step (b) of the second-stage neutral phosphorus and silicon recovery process was not performed. Everything else is the same as in Example 1.

[0056] Compared with Example 1, the drawback of this comparative example is that the mixing of calcium phosphate and magnesium ammonium phosphate affects the purity, and a large amount of silicate will partially redissolve in a slightly alkaline environment, resulting in excessive silicon concentration in the product water, which cannot meet the requirements of reverse osmosis membrane feed water.

[0057] Comparative Example 3 The only difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that step (c) of the third-stage alkaline nitrogen and magnesium recovery process was not performed. Everything else is the same as in Example 1.

[0058] Compared with Example 1, the drawback of this comparative example is that the permeate contains high concentrations of calcium ions, magnesium ions, and dissolved silica, which does not meet the requirements for reverse osmosis membrane feed water.

[0059] Comparative Example 4 The only difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that the sludge discharge port is not equipped with a pulse airflow disturbance device; Everything else is the same as in Example 1.

[0060] Compared with Example 1, the drawback of this comparative example is that it lacks bubble disturbance and scrubbing, the cleaning effect on the membrane surface is not thorough, and the chemical cleaning interval of the membrane system is shortened by 20% to 30%.

[0061] Test case The treatment process of this invention is used to treat the phosphogypsum slag wastewater generated from phosphoric acid production in a chemical plant for resource recovery. The resource recovery targets are fluoride-containing sludge, phosphorus-containing sludge, magnesium ammonium phosphate-containing sludge, and reclaimed water. The water quality of the phosphogypsum slag wastewater is as follows: F - Approximately 3100 mg / L, total phosphorus approximately 11000 mg / L, Ca 2+ Approximately 540 mg / L, Mg 2+ Approximately 500 mg / L, ammonia nitrogen approximately 320 mg / L, and total silicon approximately 2200 mg / L.

[0062] The first-stage acidic fluoride recovery process involves mixing phosphogypsum slag water and lime slurry in a first-stage membrane-coupled chemical reactor. The calcium-fluoride molar ratio (Ca / F) is 1.1, the hydraulic retention time is 30 min, the stirring speed is 200 rpm, and the pH is controlled at 3. This induces the selective formation of calcium fluoride from fluoride ions. The reaction mixture undergoes first-stage sludge-water separation through a membrane filter, yielding acidic sludge containing calcium fluoride, calcium dihydrogen phosphate, and calcium sulfate, as well as first-stage permeate. The acidic sludge is then fed into a sludge thickening and dewatering system for dewatering, resulting in a sludge cake (mainly containing calcium fluoride, calcium dihydrogen phosphate, and calcium sulfate in a mass ratio of approximately 4:4:1). The filtrate then enters the second-stage membrane-coupled chemical reactor. The second-stage neutral phosphorus and silicon recovery process involves mixing the first-stage permeate, lime slurry, and silicon removal agent in a second-stage membrane-coupled chemical reactor. The magnesium / silicon molar ratio (Mg / Si) is 1.2, the hydraulic retention time is 30 minutes, the stirring speed is 200 rpm, and the pH is controlled at 7.5. Simultaneously, dicalcium phosphate and silicate solids are generated. The reaction mixture undergoes second-stage sludge-water separation through a membrane filter to obtain neutral phosphorus- and silica-containing sludge and second-stage permeate. The neutral sludge is then fed into a sludge thickening and dewatering system for dewatering, yielding a sludge cake (mainly containing dicalcium phosphate and silica compounds in a mass ratio of approximately 6:1). The filtrate enters the third-stage membrane-coupled chemical reactor. The flux variation curve of the second-stage membrane-coupled chemical reactor is shown in the figure. Figure 3 It can be seen that the membrane specific flux is stable at 1.4m. 3 / m 2 The membrane flux decay rate can be controlled to below 5%, ensuring stable water production from the membrane system and long chemical cleaning intervals. The third-stage alkaline nitrogen and magnesium recovery process: The second-stage permeate and complexing agent are added to the third-stage membrane-coupled chemical reactor and mixed. The magnesium / nitrogen / phosphorus molar ratio (Mg / N / P) is 1.2:1:1.1, the hydraulic retention time is 20 min, the stirring speed is 200 rpm, and the pH is controlled at 9.5. Oriented crystallization produces magnesium ammonium phosphate and calcium fluorophosphate. The reaction mixture is then passed through a membrane filter for third-stage sludge-water separation to obtain alkaline nitrogen- and magnesium-containing sludge and third-stage permeate. The water quality is shown in Table 1. After acid neutralization, the sludge enters the reverse osmosis membrane system. The discharged sludge enters the sludge thickening and dewatering system for dewatering treatment, resulting in sludge cake (mainly containing magnesium ammonium phosphate, calcium fluorophosphate, and calcium carbonate, with a mass ratio of approximately 25:5:1). The flux variation curve of the third-stage membrane-coupled chemical reactor is shown in the figure. Figure 4 It can be seen that the membrane specific flux is stable at 0.7m. 3 / m 2 The membrane flux decay rate can be controlled to below 5%, ensuring stable water production from the membrane system and long chemical cleaning intervals. Table 1. Product water quality of the third-stage membrane-coupled chemical reactor

[0063] The reverse osmosis membrane system adopts a single-stage two-stage reverse osmosis membrane module arrangement, using DuPont BW30XFR-400 / 34i reverse osmosis membrane modules. The product water recovery rate is 70%, the product water conductivity is <100μS / cm, and the concentrate TDS is >20000mg / L.

[0064] In summary, the treatment process of this invention can effectively separate fluorine, phosphorus, and nitrogen from water to form sludge with resource value. The cost per ton of water treated is less than the value of the resource products. 80% of the produced water is recovered to meet industrial reuse standards, which is conducive to achieving near-zero discharge and deep high-value resource utilization of phosphogypsum slag.
