[0022] As described in the background art, when rare earth residue is treated by alkaline roasting, the washing liquid with low alkalinity produced by multiple washings contains more phosphate ions, fluoride ions and hydroxide ions. Currently, evaporation and concentration are often used to increase the alkalinity so that it has sales value. However, this treatment method is costly and inefficient.

[0023] Based on this, the inventors created an overflow system for alkaline wastewater of the present application to solve the above technical problems.

[0024] The features and performance of the present invention are further described in detail below in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0025] Example

[0026] See also Figure 1, an overflow system for alkaline wastewater, comprising a liquid supply component 30 and several tanks 10, where the tanks 10 are suitable for storing washing liquid. Here, the washing liquid refers to the liquid generated during the multi - step washing of the roasted product after the alkaline roasting treatment of rare earth residues. The washing liquid generated in the previous several washes has a relatively high alkalinity, while the washing liquid generated in the subsequent several washes has a relatively low alkalinity. The washing liquid used this time is the washing liquid with a low alkalinity. For example, it can be the washing liquid from the third wash and subsequent washes. Several of the tanks 10 are connected in sequence. An overflow port 11 is provided at the upper part of the tank 10, and the overflow port 11 is connected to the next tank 10 in sequence through an overflow pipe 13. A filter screen 12 is provided at the overflow port 11. A glass observation window 14 is provided at the lower part of the tank 10. A valve is provided at the outlet of the tank 10. The liquid supply component 30 is suitable for inputting ammonia - stripping wastewater into the lower parts of all the tanks 10. Here, by setting the filter screen 12, the generated precipitate can be blocked to prevent it from entering the subsequent tanks 10. By setting the glass observation window 14, it is convenient to observe the position of the precipitate in the tank 10, so that the precipitate can be discharged through the valve in a timely manner. For example, the overflow system may further include a camera assembly and a controller. The camera assembly is arranged outside the glass observation window 14. The camera assembly can identify the liquid level of the precipitate. The input end of the controller is connected to the camera assembly, and the output end is connected to the valve, so as to automatically control the valve to discharge the precipitate.

[0027] The overflow system of the present utility model includes a liquid supply component 30 and several tanks 10. In the washing liquid stored in the tanks 10, there are a large number of phosphate ions, fluoride ions and hydroxide ions. When ammonia - stripping wastewater is injected into the tanks 10 through the liquid supply component 30, since the ammonia - stripping wastewater contains more calcium ions and hydroxide ions, after entering the tanks 10, the calcium ions are captured by the phosphate ions and fluoride ions to form precipitates, thereby releasing more hydroxide ions and increasing the alkalinity of the solution. Through the action of overflow, the calcium ions are continuously precipitated, so as to continuously increase the alkalinity, and the low - alkalinity washing liquid can be converted into a high - alkalinity solution, making it have a selling value, with low treatment cost and high efficiency.

[0028] In another embodiment, the tank 10 further includes a stirring device 20 configured to stir the stored liquid. By setting the stirring device 20, the mixing degree of the ammonia - stripping wastewater and the washing liquid can be improved, so as to achieve sufficient precipitation and displace more hydroxide ions.

[0029] In another embodiment, the stirring device 20 includes a motor 21 and a stirrer 22 connected to the driving end of the motor 21. The motor 21 is mounted above the tank 10, and the stirrer 22 extends into the tank 10. Preferably, the stirrer 22 extends to the lower inner part of the tank 10.

[0030] In another embodiment, the space above the lowest point stirred by the stirrer 22 accounts for 80%-90% of the total space of the tank body 10. In this way, during stirring, the upper space is in the main stirring area, and the disturbance to the lower space is small, which is convenient for the generated sediment to sink by standing still and is convenient for discharging. Preferably, the space above the lowest point stirred by the stirrer 22 accounts for 85±1% of the total space of the tank body 10.

[0031] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made by those skilled in the art within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
