It is obtained by neutralizing ammonium hydroxide and sulfuric acid, crystallizing, centrifuging and drying.

[0032] Through the above arrangement, during operation, the first valve 21 and the second valve 31 are first opened, and the ammonium sulfate solution in the stock solution pool 14 enters the membrane concentration device 1 through the water inlet pipe 2. The concentrated water after being concentrated by the membrane concentration device 1 is discharged from the water outlet pipe 3 and enters the intermediate container 5 through the first pipeline 4. After the solution in the intermediate container 5 reaches a certain amount, the first valve 21 is closed and the fourth valve 61 is opened. The solution in the intermediate container 5 enters the water inlet pipe 2 through the second pipeline 6 and is input into the membrane concentration device 1 for further concentration.

[0033] Reference Figure 1As shown, specifically, a circulation pump 62 is connected to the second pipeline 6 to pump out the solution in the intermediate container 5 and transport it to the water inlet pipe 2 .
[0034] Reference Figure 1 As shown, further, an electric heating device 7 for heating the solution to make it evaporate is provided in the intermediate container 5, and a steam exhaust pipe 8 is connected to the intermediate container 5; specifically, the electric heating device 7 is arranged at the bottom of the intermediate container 5, and can be arranged in a coiled manner using an electric heating wire or an electric heating tube, so that it has a sufficiently large contact area with the solution. By arranging the electric heating device 7 in the intermediate container 5, the solution concentrated by the membrane concentration device 1 is heated, so that part of the water therein evaporates to form water vapor, and the water vapor is discharged through the steam exhaust pipe 8, so that the concentrated water is further concentrated, and the solution circulates through the membrane concentration device 1 and the intermediate container 5, and is double concentrated by membrane concentration and heating evaporation concentration, so as to be quickly concentrated to the set concentration, thereby reducing the number of cycles.
[0035] Reference Figure 1 As shown, further, in order to avoid heat waste of exhaust steam, a steam heat exchanger 9 is connected to the first pipe 4, and the first pipe 4 includes a first section and a second section. The two ends of the first section are respectively connected to the water outlet pipe 3 and the cold fluid inlet of the steam heat exchanger 9, and the two ends of the second section are respectively connected to the intermediate container 5 and the cold fluid outlet of the steam heat exchanger 9. The steam exhaust pipe 8 is connected to the hot fluid inlet of the steam heat exchanger 9; the hot fluid outlet of the steam heat exchanger 9 is connected to the water production pool 15 through the condensation pipe 10. Specifically, the steam exhaust pipe 8 is connected to the top of the intermediate container 5, and the steam in the intermediate container 5 is input into the steam heat exchanger 9 through the steam exhaust pipe 8. The steam is used as a heating working medium to heat the solution in the cold fluid pipeline flowing through the steam heat exchanger 9, so that the temperature of the solution entering the intermediate container 5 is increased, and the solution in the intermediate container 5 is quickly heated to the evaporation temperature, that is, the water vapor generated by evaporation by the heating device is used to pre-heat the solution entering the intermediate container 5, thereby avoiding the waste of steam heat, accelerating the evaporation rate of the solution in the intermediate container 5, and improving the concentration efficiency; the steam and condensed water after passing through the steam heat exchanger 9 are discharged into the water production pool 15 through the condensation pipe 10 for subsequent treatment.
[0036] Reference Figure 1As shown, further, the steam discharge pipe 8 is also connected to a third pipe 11, one end of the third pipe 11 is connected to the steam discharge pipe 8, and the other end is used to connect to the steam system in the plant area. The steam discharge pipe 8 is provided with a fifth valve 81 located between the third pipe 11 and the steam heat exchanger 9, and the third pipe 11 is provided with a sixth valve 111. When the sixth valve 111 is closed, during the process of the solution circulating through the membrane concentration device 1 and the intermediate container 5, the steam generated by the evaporation of the concentrated water in the intermediate container 5 heats the water entering the intermediate container 5 through the steam heat exchanger 9, so that the concentrated water in the intermediate container 5 quickly reaches the evaporation temperature, thereby improving the concentration efficiency. When the sixth valve 111 is opened and the fifth valve 81 is closed, the steam can be input into the steam system in the plant area through the third pipe 11, and can be used as steam for subsequent evaporation and crystallization, thereby avoiding steam waste and reducing energy consumption.
[0037] Reference Figure 1 As shown, further, in order to realize the automatic operation of the entire concentration process, a conductivity meter 12 for detecting the conductivity of the solution and a liquid level meter 13 for detecting the liquid level are provided in the intermediate container 5, and the first valve 21, the second valve 31, the third valve 41, the fourth valve 61, the fifth valve 81 and the sixth valve 111 are all electrically controlled valves.
[0038] When concentrating the solution, during the initial liquid inflow, the control system controls the second valve 31, the fourth valve 61 and the sixth valve 111 to be closed, and the other valves to be opened. The raw liquid is output from the raw liquid pool 14 and input into the membrane concentration device 1 through the water inlet pipe 2 for concentration. The concentrated water input of the membrane concentration device 1 is input into the intermediate container 5 through the water outlet pipe 3 and the first pipeline 4. The conductivity meter 12 in the intermediate container 5 detects the solution conductivity in real time to obtain the solution concentration, and the liquid level meter 13 detects the liquid level in the intermediate container 5 in real time. After the liquid level in the intermediate container 5 reaches the set value, the control system controls the first valve 21, the second valve 31 and the sixth valve 111 to be closed, and the other valves to be opened, and the circulation pump 62 is turned on to transfer the solution in the intermediate container 5. The solution is pumped out to the second pipeline 6, and then enters the water inlet pipe 2 again and is input into the membrane concentration device 1. At the same time, the electric heating device 7 is turned on to heat the solution in the intermediate container 5 to evaporate the water. The solution circulates through the membrane concentration device 1 and the intermediate container 5 to concentrate the solution multiple times. When the conductivity of the solution in the intermediate container 5 reaches the set value, the concentration of the solution reaches the set requirement, the control system controls the first valve 21, the third valve 41 and the fifth valve 81 to be closed, and the other valves to be opened. The concentrated water is output from the intermediate container 5, passes through the second pipeline 6, the water inlet pipe 2 and the membrane concentration device 1, and is then output from the water outlet pipe 3 and input into the concentrated water pool 16. The concentrated water in the concentrated water pool 16 is supplied to the ammonium sulfate evaporation and crystallization system for evaporation and crystallization.
[0039] The above process can be controlled automatically by the control system, and the raw liquid input into the concentration device of the present application is concentrated to a set concentration and then output, thereby realizing automatic control of the concentration process and improving the concentration efficiency.
