Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a device for reducing hexavalent chromium in vanadium extraction wastewater, belonging to the technical field of vanadium hydrometallurgical equipment. Background Art

[0002] In the existing vanadium extraction process using vanadium-titanium magnetite as raw material, vanadium-titanium magnetite is subjected to blast furnace smelting and converter blowing process to obtain chromium-containing vanadium slag. During the sodium roasting and water leaching process of vanadium extraction using vanadium slag as raw material, chromium enters the acidic ammonium salt vanadium precipitation process together with vanadium, and enters the vanadium precipitation supernatant in the form of dichromic acid together with the polyvanadate ions that have not been completely precipitated, i.e. vanadium extraction wastewater, resulting in extremely toxic vanadium precipitation wastewater that cannot be directly discharged. At the same time, chromium is also an important valuable metal element. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the recovery and utilization of valuable metal chromium in vanadium extraction wastewater from high-chromium vanadium slag.

[0003] The traditional process uses sodium metabisulfite to reduce hexavalent chromium in wastewater to generate trivalent chromium and then generate chromium hydroxide precipitate. However, the high unit price of sodium metabisulfite results in high process costs, which in turn increases the cost of wastewater treatment. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to provide a device for reducing hexavalent chromium in vanadium extraction wastewater, which reduces the hexavalent chromium in the wastewater to generate trivalent chromium and then generates chromium hydroxide precipitation, has high production efficiency and solves the problems existing in the background technology.

[0005] The technical solution of the utility model is:

[0006] A device for reducing hexavalent chromium in vanadium extraction wastewater, comprising a molten sulfur pool, a gasification chamber, a combustion chamber, a cooling chamber, an ejector, a reaction tank, a spray tower and an induced draft fan arranged in sequence according to the process;

[0007] The molten sulfur pool is heated by medium-pressure steam, and the molten sulfur is transported by a gear pump;

[0008] The gasification chamber is supplied with air by a primary fan to participate in gasification;

[0009] The combustion chamber is supplied with air by a secondary fan to assist combustion;

[0010] The cooling chamber is passed through cooling circulating water for cooling;

[0011] The hexavalent chromium wastewater pipeline and the sulfur dioxide gas pipeline in the ejector are arranged vertically and crosswise;

[0012] The reaction tank is provided with a discharge pump outlet valve so that the discharge flow rate is greater than the injector inlet flow rate.

[0013] Furthermore, the liquid level of the reaction tank is higher than the ejector reaction tail pipe.

[0014] Furthermore, a circulation pump is installed at the bottom of the spray tower to absorb unreacted sulfur dioxide gas using weak alkaline wastewater.

[0015] According to the utility model, after sulfur is melted in the molten sulfur pool, it is gasified in the gasification chamber, and burned in the combustion chamber to generate sulfur dioxide gas, which is cooled in the cooling chamber and then vertically crosses with the wastewater into the ejector. Sulfur dioxide reduces hexavalent chromium in the wastewater to trivalent chromium in the reaction tank, and the reduced wastewater enters the next process, and the excess unreacted sulfur dioxide enters the spray tower for absorption.

[0016] The positive effect of the utility model is that the hexavalent chromium in the wastewater is completely reduced to trivalent chromium by using the device, thereby greatly reducing the production cost. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
