[0023] Embodiment 1

[0024] As shown Figure 1 in the figure, this embodiment provides an electrocoagulation defluorination recycling device, which includes a sewage tank 1, a pretreatment tank 2, an electrocoagulation reaction tank 3, a sedimentation tank 4, a collection tank 5, a concentration tank 7, a filter press 9, a dryer 12 and an electrolytic aluminum reaction tank 14 connected in sequence. The water body of the sedimentation tank 4 is recycled. The waste aluminum electrode plates of the electrocoagulation reaction tank 3 are sent back to the electrolytic aluminum reaction tank 14, and the fluorine-containing sewage of the electrolytic aluminum reaction tank 14 is sent back to the sewage tank 1.

[0025] The sewage tank 1 collects the sewage generated by the electrolytic aluminum reaction tank 14 and the fluorine-containing rainwater. The pretreatment tank 2 pretreats the sewage in the sewage tank 1 to remove pollutants such as BOD, COD and suspended solids in the sewage. In the electrocoagulation reaction tank 3, aluminum plates are used as electrode plates. The aluminum electrodes generate flocs to remove or adsorb fluoride ions in the water. A large amount of flocs precipitate at the bottom and scum is generated at the upper part, and the fluorine content of both is ≥50%. The timely and effective separation of the flocs and scum from the water can improve the electrocoagulation defluorination efficiency. The sedimentation tank 4 discharges the flocs and scum to the collection tank 5 for collection. The materials in the collection tank 5 enter the concentration tank 7 for concentration to reduce the water content in the materials. The concentrated materials enter the filter press 9 for filtration, changing from liquid to solid, with a water content between 50-70%. The filtered materials enter the dryer 12, and the dryer 12 dries the materials to remove moisture. Since fluorine needs to be added during the production process of the electrolytic aluminum process, the dried fluorine-containing materials are transported to the electrolytic aluminum reaction tank 14 for production use, so as to achieve the purpose of recycling. The water body of the sedimentation tank 4 is collected and recycled after collection.

[0026] In the electrocoagulation defluorination process for fluorine-containing wastewater in the electrolytic aluminum industry, generally aluminum plates are selected as electrode plates. When the aluminum electrode plates are consumed (passivated) to a certain extent, the aluminum electrode plates need to be replaced. The replaced waste aluminum electrode plates can be directly added to the electrolytic aluminum reaction tank 14 after natural drying, realizing the recycling of the aluminum electrode plates. In addition, the fluorine-containing sewage generated by the electrolytic aluminum reaction tank 14 can be sent back to the sewage tank 1 to realize the recycling treatment of the fluorine-containing sewage. This device can realize the recycling of solid waste, aluminum electrode plates and water bodies, etc., and can also realize the recycling treatment of fluorine-containing sewage, which can effectively avoid environmental pollution and reduce the treatment cost.

[0027] In this embodiment, the electrocoagulation reaction tank 3 includes a first outlet 31 and a second outlet 32. The first outlet 31 is connected to the sedimentation tank 4, and the second outlet 32 is connected to the collection tank 5. The sediment at the bottom and the scum at the upper part of the electrocoagulation reaction tank 3 can be directly discharged to the collection tank 5 through the second outlet 32 for collection. The reaction liquid in the reaction tank is transported to the sedimentation tank 4 for sedimentation, and the sediment generated by the sedimentation tank 4 is then discharged to the collection tank 5. This can accelerate the collection speed of the sediment and scum.

[0028] In this embodiment, the materials in the collection tank 5 are transported to the concentration tank 7 by a lift pump 6. The lift pump 6 lifts the materials to the concentration tank 7, which can accelerate the concentration efficiency.

[0029] In this embodiment, the materials in the concentration tank 7 are transported to the filter press 9 by a screw pump 8. Pressurizing the concentrated materials through the screw pump 8 and feeding them into the filter press 9 can achieve rapid dehydration.

[0030] In this embodiment, the outlet of the filter press 9 is also connected to a wet material bin 10. The outlet of the wet material bin 10 is connected to a movable material conveying trough 11. The outlet of the movable material conveying trough 11 is connected to the inlet of the dryer 12. The movable material conveying trough 11 is inclined at an angle of 75 - 85°. After filtration, the fluorine-containing materials enter the wet material bin 10. By electrically adjusting the opening degree of the bin door of the wet material bin 10 and cooperating with the inclined movable material conveying trough 11, the materials can quickly enter the dryer 12 along the inclined direction, which can effectively reduce the labor intensity and completely avoid manual shoveling of materials.

[0031] In this embodiment, a suction fan is provided at the inlet of the dryer 12. A screw conveyor is provided inside the dryer 12, and a speed reducer is installed on the screw conveyor. The materials in the wet material bin 10 enter the dryer 12. Since the materials are viscous, in a cake shape, and have a high moisture content, they are rolled by the screw conveyor. The speed reducer is used to adjust the screw conveyor, feeding forward and discharging in reverse. Electric heating is used as the heat source. Since hydrogen fluoride gas will be formed when aluminum fluoride is at a temperature > 300°C, the dryer 12 can be equipped with an automatic temperature control system, and the drying temperature ≤ 200°C. During the drying process, the suction fan is used to extract moisture, enabling the materials to be quickly dried.

[0032] In this embodiment, the outlet of the dryer 12 is also connected to a movable dry material bin 13. The movable dry material bin 13 transports the materials to the electrolytic aluminum reaction tank 14. The movable dry material bin 13 is used to collect the dried materials and then send them for use in electrolytic aluminum production, achieving the purpose of recycling.

[0033] The working principle of an electrocoagulation defluorination recycling device is as follows: The sewage tank 1 collects the sewage generated by the electrolytic aluminum reaction tank 14 and the fluorine-containing rainwater. The sewage in the sewage tank 1 enters the pretreatment tank 2 to remove pollutants such as BOD, COD, and suspended solids in the sewage. The pretreated sewage enters the electrocoagulation reaction tank 3 to remove or adsorb fluoride ions in the water. A large amount of flocculants precipitate at the bottom, and scum is generated at the top. The flocculants and scum enter the collection tank 5, and the reaction liquid enters the sedimentation tank 4. The sediment in the sedimentation tank 4 also enters the collection tank 5. The lift pump 6 lifts the materials in the collection tank 5 to the concentration tank 7 for concentration. The concentrated materials are pressurized by the screw pump 8 and enter the filter press 9 for filtration. The fluorine-containing materials after filtration enter the wet material bin 10. By electrically adjusting the opening of the bin door of the wet material bin 10 and cooperating with the inclined movable feeding trough 11, the materials quickly enter the dryer 12 along the inclined direction for drying. The materials are fed in the forward rotation and discharged in the reverse rotation. The dried materials are collected in the movable dry material bin 13, and the movable dry material bin 13 sends the materials to the electrolytic aluminum reaction tank 14 to realize the recycling of fluorine-containing solid materials.

[0034] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, various changes and modifications can be made to the present invention. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
