Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a method for treating high-COD wastewater containing benzene compounds in phenol and acetone production, belonging to the field of chemical production technology. Background Technology

[0002] In phenol-acetone production, high-COD benzene-containing wastewater from the phenol-acetone unit flows from the flash preheater to the flash evaporator. The organic waste liquid containing small amounts of acetone and methanol, evaporated from the upper layer of the flash tower, is condensed in the flash condenser and temporarily stored in a collection tank. The saline mother liquor at the bottom of the flash evaporator is pumped into the triple-effect feed tank via the flash discharge pump. The saline wastewater in the triple-effect feed tank is then pumped back through the preheater and flows horizontally into the first, second, and third-effect evaporators for evaporation and concentration, causing sodium sulfate to saturate and precipitate. The salt slurry is then transferred downstream and finally discharged from the triple-effect evaporator. The salt slurry discharged from the evaporation system first undergoes sedimentation separation and then centrifuge separation. The vapor phase from the triple-effect system is condensed and then enters the wastewater treatment system. However, the evaporation capacity of the triple-effect system is relatively low and cannot meet the treatment needs of the upstream high-COD benzene-containing wastewater. Furthermore, the high benzene content after condensation of the vapor phase puts pressure on subsequent processing steps. Summary of the Invention

The described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of them. 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. Where specific conditions are not specified in the embodiments, conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer shall apply.

[0027] This invention provides a method for treating high-COD benzene-containing wastewater from phenol and acetone production, comprising sequential pretreatment, biochemical treatment, and advanced treatment; the pretreatment includes a single-effect falling film evaporator, a first-effect evaporator, a second-effect evaporator, and a third-effect evaporator; the biochemical treatment includes an acidification hydrolysis tank, an oxidation ditch, a primary aerobic tank, a secondary aerobic tank, a primary sedimentation tank, a secondary sedimentation tank, and a sludge thickening tank; the advanced treatment includes a coagulation-flotation physicochemical treatment tank and a terminal sedimentation tank.

[0028] The specific processing method is shown in the following example.

[0029] Example A method for treating high-COD wastewater containing benzene compounds from phenol and acetone production, such as... Figure 1 The process flow shown is as follows: Pretreatment process: High-salt, high-COD benzene-containing wastewater from the phenol unit is preheated and then enters a single-effect falling film evaporator for treatment. The single-effect falling film evaporator uses low-pressure steam with a pressure of 0.3~0.35MPa. The concentrated waste liquid from the single-effect falling film evaporator enters the concentrated liquid storage tank, and then enters the first-effect evaporator, second-effect evaporator, and third-effect evaporator for treatment in sequence. The gas phase from the single-effect falling film evaporator and the third-effect evaporator is condensed by heat exchange condensers, which destroys the stable structure of benzene rings and breaks its chemical bonds, transforming it from a stable aromatic compound into an easily treated open-chain compound. The condensed waste liquid forms a pretreated waste liquid with a temperature of 37~40℃ and enters a high-concentration waste liquid tank. The concentrated crystal slurry from the third-effect evaporator enters the settling tank for treatment, and the mother liquor enters the incinerator. The solids from the settling tank are recovered, and the liquid from the settling tank enters the single-effect falling film evaporator. Biochemical treatment process: The pretreated wastewater from the high-concentration wastewater tank sequentially enters the acidification hydrolysis tank, oxidation ditch, and primary sedimentation tank for treatment. The acidification hydrolysis tank treatment conditions are controlled as follows: temperature 30-35℃, pH 6-7.5, and residence time 4-6 hours. The oxidation ditch consists of sequentially anaerobic, anoxic, and aerobic zones. The anaerobic zone treatment conditions are controlled as follows: dissolved oxygen concentration less than 0.1 mg / L, temperature 30-35℃, pH 6-7.5, and residence time 4-6 hours. The anoxic zone treatment conditions are: dissolved oxygen concentration 0.2-0.5 mg / L, temperature 30-35℃, and pH 6-7.5. Wastewater from the primary sedimentation tank enters the secondary aerobic tank and then the secondary sedimentation tank for further treatment. The secondary aerobic tank uses a contact oxidation process, and the treatment conditions are controlled as follows: dissolved oxygen concentration 3-4 mg / L, combined packing material, air-to-water ratio 15:1-20:1, temperature 30-35℃, pH 6.5-8.5, and retention time 3-5 hours. The specific surface area of ​​the combined packing material is 450-550 m². 2 / m 3 The filling rate is 60-65%. The secondary sedimentation tank adopts an inclined plate sedimentation tank, and the primary sedimentation tank adopts a radial flow sedimentation tank. The supernatant from the secondary sedimentation tank enters the deep treatment system. The sludge from the primary sedimentation tank enters the primary aerobic tank and sludge thickening tank for treatment. The wastewater from the sludge thickening tank enters the secondary aerobic tank. The sludge from the sludge thickening tank is returned to the oxidation ditch or recycled for resource recovery. The advanced treatment process is as follows: the supernatant from the secondary sedimentation tank enters the coagulation-flotation physicochemical treatment tank and the terminal sedimentation tank for treatment. The coagulation-flotation physicochemical treatment tank uses a composite flocculant. The composite flocculant is composed of polyγ-glutamic acid, sulfated polysaccharide and chitosan. The dosage of the composite flocculant is 25~45mg / L. The terminal sedimentation tank is an inclined plate sedimentation tank. The water quality from the terminal sedimentation tank meets the discharge standards. The flocculants from the terminal sedimentation tank enter the oxidation ditch for treatment.

[0030] The composite flocculant is composed of 2.5 to 5 parts by weight of polyγ-glutamic acid, 2 to 4.5 parts by weight of sulfated polysaccharide, and 7.5 to 15.5 parts by weight of chitosan.

[0031] In the single-effect falling film evaporation treatment of this invention, high-salt, high-COD benzene-containing wastewater exchanges heat with the gas phase of the single-effect falling film evaporator, and then exchanges heat with the steam condensate of the single-effect falling film evaporator to raise its temperature before entering the single-effect falling film evaporator. The high-COD benzene-containing wastewater in the single-effect falling film evaporator is forcibly circulated by a circulation pump and evenly distributed by a distributor at the top of the falling film evaporator, so that the saline wastewater in the evaporator forms a liquid film, which exchanges heat and evaporates with low-pressure steam. The single-effect falling film evaporator heats the circulating wastewater in the single-effect falling film evaporator with 0.35MPa steam. The concentrated liquid and secondary steam are separated. The concentrated waste liquid after evaporation is sent to a triple-effect steam system (first-effect evaporator, second-effect evaporator, and third-effect evaporator) for subsequent treatment; the secondary steam is introduced into the next effect as a heat source.

[0032] In the oxidation ditch of this invention, the anaerobic zone is free of O2 and NO3. - Polyphosphate-accumulating bacteria release phosphorus and absorb easily degradable organic matter in this area; the anoxic zone contains no O2 but has NO3. - Denitrifying bacteria use the remaining organic matter to reduce nitrates in the reflux liquid to nitrogen gas, thus achieving denitrification. The aerobic zone contains O2, and nitrifying bacteria convert ammonia nitrogen into nitrates. The mixed liquid is refluxed to the anoxic zone, where polyphosphate-accumulating bacteria absorb excess phosphorus, and the organic matter is completely oxidized and decomposed.

[0033] According to the treatment method of the above embodiments, the high-salt, high-COD wastewater containing benzene compounds from the phenol unit is first pretreated, and then the pretreated wastewater is subjected to biochemical treatment, or / and the water obtained from the biochemical treatment is further treated to achieve the water quality standard for discharge, as shown in Examples 1 to 6 below.
