Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of desulfurization waste liquid recovery, in particular to a device for optimizing the co-production of acid production and ammonium thiocyanate from desulfurization waste liquid. Background Art

[0002] At present, there are two main directions in the treatment of desulfurization foam and desulfurization waste liquid in the pre-ammonium desulfurization of sulfur-containing concentrated liquid in domestic coking enterprises: one is to make acid from desulfurization foam and desulfurization waste liquid; the other is to extract salt from desulfurization waste liquid and melt sulfur from desulfurization foam.

[0003] There are two major problems faced by desulfurization foam and desulfurization waste liquid acid production technology. First, the high-value-added product ammonium thiocyanate present in the desulfurization waste liquid is sent to the incinerator for incineration to produce sulfur-containing furnace gas after concentration or crystallization, and is not effectively recovered; second, the presence of ammonium thiocyanate produces a large amount of nitrogen oxides during the incineration process, which seriously affects the stable operation of the subsequent acid production section and causes the nitrate content in the finished acid production to exceed the standard, affecting product quality.

[0004] At present, there are three problems in extracting salt from desulfurization waste liquid. First, the energy consumption is high. The salt extraction process requires evaporation and concentration under vacuum conditions, which consumes huge amounts of electricity and steam. Second, the by-products are of poor quality and difficult to sell. Since the by-products ammonium thiosulfate and ammonium sulfate contain high levels of ammonium thiocyanate that cannot be removed, they cannot be sold in the market and are basically solid waste, which is either piled up or treated at a price. Third, there is a strong odor on site. Since the decolorization and unloading process of the decolorization kettle and the ammonium thiosulfate plate and frame filter press process are both open systems, the materials contain high ammonia, which leads to a strong odor on site.

[0005] Therefore, how to establish a co-production device to purify the ammonium thiocyanate product while using the ammonium thiosulfate produced in the ammonium thiocyanate production process as a miscellaneous salt to prepare it as a raw material for acid production has become an urgent problem to be solved.

[0008] A jacket is provided on the outer wall of the tank body, a cooling cavity is formed between the jacket and the outer wall of the tank body, a medium inlet and a medium outlet are provided on the jacket, and the medium inlet and the medium outlet are both connected to the cooling cavity;

[0009] A filter plate is provided in the tank body; an ammonium thiocyanate mother liquor outlet and a sulfide impurity discharge port are provided at the lower part of the side wall of the tank body; a differential pressure level gauge and a thermometer are provided in the tank body; and a sulfur-containing concentrate inlet and a backwash liquid inlet are provided on the cover body.

[0020] A jacket 5 is provided on the outer wall of the tank body 1, and a cooling cavity is formed between the jacket 5 and the outer wall of the tank body 1. A medium inlet 6 and a medium outlet 7 are provided on the jacket 5. Both the medium inlet 6 and the medium outlet 7 are connected to the cooling cavity. A cooling medium is injected into the cooling cavity through the medium inlet 6, and the cooling medium in the cooling cavity that has undergone heat exchange is discharged through the medium outlet 7. The cooling medium in this application is cooling water;

[0021] A filter plate 8 is provided in the tank body 1. As a preferred embodiment, the filter plate 8 in this application is a metal microporous filter plate to improve the separation efficiency of crystals and liquid; an ammonium thiocyanate mother liquor outlet 9 and a sulfide impurity discharge port 10 are provided at the lower part of the side wall of the tank body 1; a differential pressure level gauge 11 and a thermometer 12 are provided in the tank body 1; and a sulfur-containing concentrate inlet 13 and a backwash liquid inlet 14 are provided on the cover body 2.

[0022] As a preferred embodiment, the cover body 2 in the present application is also provided with a VOC collection port 15, a compressed air inlet 16 and a peephole 17. The VOC collection port is used to collect the VOC gas in the tank body 1 to reduce environmental pollution; compressed air is injected into the tank body 1 through the compressed air inlet 16 to improve the filtration efficiency of the liquid from the filter plate 8; the peephole 17 is used to realize real-time observation of the liquid in the tank body 1 to ensure that each process of the liquid in the tank body 1 is carried out in an orderly manner.

[0023] As a preferred embodiment, a heating coil 18 is provided on the outer wall of the tank body 1 in the present application. And the tank body 1 is also provided with an inspection manhole 19, through which the inspection and maintenance of the tank body 1 can be achieved.

[0024] The device for optimizing the co-production of acid and ammonium thiocyanate from desulfurized wastewater in this application separates ammonium thiocyanate mother liquor and raw materials for acid production from the sulfur-containing concentrated liquid entering the tank body 1 through the sulfur-containing concentrated liquid inlet 13 through cooling crystallization, filtration, and backwashing. The specific process is as follows:

[0025] Cooling crystallization process: the sulfur-containing concentrated liquid enters the tank body 1 through the sulfur-containing concentrated liquid inlet 13, and the sulfur-containing concentrated liquid is stopped from entering when it is determined by the differential pressure liquid level gauge 11 that the sulfur-containing concentrated liquid has entered 3 / 4 of the height in the tank body; the medium inlet 6 is opened, and the cooling liquid is injected into the cooling cavity. The cooling liquid in this application is cooling water, and the cooling water is used to cool the sulfur-containing concentrated liquid in the tank body 1. At the same time, the stirring motor 3 is started, and the stirring paddle 4 is driven by the stirring motor 3 to rotate to achieve stirring of the sulfur-containing concentrated liquid, thereby improving the cooling efficiency of the sulfur-containing concentrated liquid. The temperature of the sulfur-containing concentrated liquid is monitored by a thermometer 12 provided on the side wall of the tank body 1. When the temperature of the sulfur-containing concentrated liquid in the tank body 1 drops to 65°C, the medium inlet is closed and the cooling water in the cooling cavity is discharged through the medium outlet; in the process of the temperature of the sulfur-containing concentrated liquid dropping to 65°C, ammonium thiosulfate gradually precipitates and crystallizes, and the liquid after the sulfur-containing concentrated liquid precipitates ammonium thiocyanate mother liquor;

[0026] Filtration process: open the ammonium thiocyanate mother liquor outlet 9, which is connected to the ammonium thiocyanate crystallization kettle, stop the stirring motor, and open the compressed air inlet valve 16 at the same time. The compressed air entering through the compressed air inlet valve 16 increases the filtration speed of the ammonium thiocyanate mother liquor from the filter plate 8, allowing the ammonium thiocyanate mother liquor solution to pass through the metal microporous filter plate, filtering the ammonium thiosulfate and retaining it on the filter plate 8, thereby achieving separation of the ammonium thiocyanate mother liquor and ammonium thiosulfate to obtain the ammonium thiocyanate mother liquor;

[0027] Backwashing process: When no more ammonium thiocyanate mother liquor flows out, close the compressed air inlet valve 16, open the VOC collection port 15, open the backwash liquid inlet 14, and let the heated centrifuge liquid enter the tank body 1 from the backwash liquid inlet 14. At the same time, open the bottom steam heating coil 18, and when the temperature in the tank body 1 is raised to 85°C, start the stirring motor 3 to achieve the centrifuge liquid to gradually crystallize and fully dissolve the ammonium thiosulfate. The dissolution time is about 10 minutes. The dissolved solution is discharged to the miscellaneous salt tank through the thio impurity vent 10 to obtain sulfur-containing waste liquid, which is convenient for subsequent acid production and becomes the raw material for acid production.

[0028] The centrifuge used in the backwash process is prepared from the ammonium thiocyanate mother liquor that flows out of tank body 1 during the filtration process. Specifically, the ammonium thiocyanate mother liquor flowing out of tank body 1 is cooled and crystallized in an ammonium thiocyanate crystallizer and then centrifuged to extract the ammonium thiocyanate from the ammonium thiocyanate mother liquor. The liquid after the ammonium thiocyanate extraction is used as the centrifuge for backwashing. Using the solution after the ammonium thiocyanate extraction as the centrifuge for backwashing achieves water-free addition to the tank body, achieving material and water balance within tank body 1, reducing the processing cost of adding other liquids as centrifuge, and conserving resources.

[0029] The present application first cools the sulfur-containing concentrated liquid to crystallize the ammonium thiosulfate in the sulfur-containing concentrated liquid, and the liquid from which the ammonium thiosulfate crystals are precipitated is the ammonium thiocyanate mother liquor, thereby separating the ammonium thiocyanate mother liquor from the ammonium thiosulfate. After the ammonium thiocyanate mother liquor is subjected to the cooling, crystallization and centrifugation processes, ammonium thiocyanate is obtained. The ammonium thiosulfate is mixed with the centrifuge liquid and heated at the same time to obtain the raw material for acid production, namely the sulfur-containing waste liquid. The present application optimizes the desulfurization waste liquid acid production and ammonium thiocyanate co-production device. Since the device does not have an incineration structure and process, it solves the problem of high-value-added ammonium thiocyanate being incinerated in the existing desulfurization foam and desulfurization waste liquid acid production process, solves the problem of excessive nitrogen oxides in the acid production incineration process, and thus solves the problem of excessive nitrate in the finished acid. The device has a simple structure and solves the problem of multiple equipment and difficult control in the existing sulfur impurity removal system. The VOC collection port is used to collect gas in the tank, solving the problem of strong odor at the salt extraction site. It solves the system hot and cold disease problem and reduces process energy consumption.
