Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of industrial wastewater treatment, and in particular to a separation system for realizing resource recovery during industrial wastewater treatment, and specifically to a low-energy separation system for recovering sodium chloride and sodium sulfate in industrial wastewater. Background Art

[0002] High-concentration salt solutions contain large amounts of soluble salts, organic matter, and metal ions, which interact with various inorganic compounds in wastewater, resulting in complex physical and chemical properties. Based on the production goals of environmental protection and resource recovery, extracting recyclable industrial salt from high-concentration salt solutions that can be put into production has become an industry consensus.

[0003] In industrial high-salt wastewater treatment projects, such as zero wastewater discharge and integrated desulfurization ash disposal, if the by-product crystalline salt is disposed of in the form of mixed salt, there are problems with low resource utilization and high disposal costs. In addition, sodium sulfate and sodium chloride are the main by-product salts and can be recycled as industrial raw materials to reduce treatment costs. Therefore, how to effectively, economically, and efficiently recover sodium chloride and sodium sulfate from high-salt industrial wastewater to achieve resource utilization of crystalline salt has become an urgent problem to be solved in the industry.

[0004] Chinese invention patent CN118026215A discloses a method for separating salt from a solution containing sodium chloride and sodium sulfate. The method comprises dissolving the mixed salt first, separating and drying the undissolved sodium sulfate to obtain anhydrous sodium sulfate, and then freezing and crystallizing the mixed salt to obtain sodium sulfate. The sodium sulfate is then returned to the solution and dissolved again, and the mother liquor of the frozen crystallization is evaporated and crystallized at high temperature to obtain sodium chloride solid.

[0005] Although the salt-dividing method disclosed in the above patent document has been improved in the freezing crystallization and evaporation crystallization routes, it still has great defects: first, there are generally organic impurities in the mixed crystallized salt, and the method disclosed in the patent document does not have a corresponding treatment process. If the mother liquor has been circulating in the system, the organic matter will eventually precipitate out along with the crystallized salt, affecting the purity and whiteness of the crystallized salt; secondly, cooling crystallization needs to reduce the salting-out mother liquor to about 0 ° C, and evaporation crystallization is then heated from 0 ° C to about 100 ° C, requiring high energy consumption, and the salt-distilled by cooling crystallization needs to be dissolved at high temperature again, and the process is repeated and increases energy consumption. Therefore, although the salt-dividing method disclosed in the above patent document can realize sodium chloride resource recovery, it still has the problem that the purity of sodium chloride is not high and the energy consumption required for treatment is large, resulting in high processing cost.

[0006] Therefore, there are still many defects in the current recycling of industrial salt resources, and it is urgent to propose a new technical solution to solve the problems existing in the existing technology. Utility Model Content

[0038] The present application will be further described below in detail through specific embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0039] In the description of this application: unless otherwise specified, the meaning of "plurality" is two or more. The terms "first", "second", etc. in this application are intended to distinguish the objects referred to and do not have any special meaning in terms of technical connotation (for example, they should not be understood as emphasizing the degree of importance or order, etc.). Expressions such as "including", "comprising", "having", etc. also mean "not limited to" (certain units, components, materials, steps, etc.).

[0040] In order to solve the problems existing in the prior art, the present application provides a low-energy separation system for the recovery of sodium chloride and sodium sulfate. When treating mixed salt (mainly containing NaCl, Na2SO4 and organic matter to be treated, mostly industrial wastewater), the presence of organic matter will affect the quality of the crystalline salt. Therefore, the system adds a suitable oxidant without introducing impurity ions to oxidize the organic matter while dissolving the mixed salt. The system mainly utilizes the solubility characteristics of the sodium chloride-sodium sulfate-water ternary system at different temperatures. Under low temperature difference conditions, sodium sulfate solid and sodium chloride solid are separated in turn. Considering that water has a large specific heat capacity, excessive temperature difference will cause energy loss. Therefore, the present application also uses a heat exchanger to recycle the mother liquor waste heat in the disposal process to reduce the energy consumption of the treatment process and reduce the treatment cost. The system structure and separation process of a low-energy separation system for the recovery of sodium chloride and sodium sulfate provided by the present application are described in detail in combination with specific embodiments.

Among them, the dissolving tank 1 and the first centrifuge 2 cooperate to realize the extraction and separation of sodium sulfate in the mixed salt liquid, and the cooling evaporation device 4 and the second centrifuge 5 cooperate to realize the extraction and separation of sodium chloride in the mother liquor (brine mixture liquid) discharged from the first centrifuge 2. Since there is a high temperature difference between the liquid temperature in the dissolving tank 1 and the liquid temperature in the cooling evaporation device 4, the present application sets a heat exchanger 3 to recover the temperature of the mother liquor discharged from the first centrifuge 2, and uses the recovered heat to heat the water passed into the dissolving tank 1, thereby reducing the energy consumption of maintaining the liquid temperature in the dissolving tank 1. The vacuum pump 7 is used to ensure the negative pressure state of the cooling evaporation device 4, and the condensed water tank 6 is used to collect the condensed water in the insulation jacket of the dissolving tank 1 and the condensed water evaporated by the cooling evaporation device 4.

Of course, an external water source can also be added to cooperate with the condensed water tank 6 to add water to the dissolving tank 1 at the same time, ensuring that the amount of water added meets the requirements.

[0043] In this embodiment, the dissolving tank 1 includes a tank body and an insulating jacket arranged outside the tank body.

The air outlet 43 is connected to the vacuum pump 7, and the condensed water outlet 44 is connected to the condensed water tank 6.

[0047] In this embodiment, the second centrifuge 5 has a liquid inlet 51, a sodium chloride outlet 52 and a tail liquid outlet 53. The second centrifuge 5 is used to separate the tail liquid and the sodium chloride solid. The sodium chloride solid is discharged from the sodium chloride outlet 52 to a collection point, and the tail liquid from which the sodium chloride solid is separated is discharged to the dissolution tank 1 through the tail liquid outlet 53 for further processing.

[0048] In this embodiment, the heat exchanger 3 includes an outer shell and a heat exchange coil arranged in the outer shell. The heat exchange medium inlet 31, the heat exchange medium outlet 32, the water injection port 33 and the water supply port 34 are all arranged on the outer shell. One end of the heat exchange coil is installed at the heat exchange medium inlet 31, and the other end of the heat exchange coil is installed at the heat exchange medium outlet 32. After the condensed water is passed into the outer shell and heat-exchanged with the mother liquid in the heat exchange coil to heat it up, it is sent into the dissolution tank 1 from the water supply port 34 on the outer shell to realize the heat recovery and utilization of the mother liquid.

[0049] In this embodiment, the cooling evaporation device 4 includes a pressure tank and an insulation jacket arranged outside the pressure tank. The insulation jacket can continuously keep the liquid in the pressure tank warm. The temperature range of the liquid in the pressure tank is 40°C. The vacuum pump 7 can maintain the vacuum degree of the pressure tank at 0.001MPa.

[0050] In this embodiment, a stirrer can be provided in both the dissolving tank 1 and the cooling evaporation device 4, and a thermometer and a liquid level gauge can be provided on the dissolving tank 1 and the cooling evaporation device 4 respectively. A pressure gauge can also be provided in the cooling evaporation device 4.

[0051] The low-energy separation system for recovering sodium chloride and sodium sulfate provided in the present application has the following working process: a mixed salt solution and an oxidant are added to a dissolving tank 1. After sufficient dissolution reaction, the oxidant eliminates organic matter in the mixed salt solution, while ensuring that the system is in a supersaturated state, and the undissolved salt is sodium sulfate. The salt mixture enters the first centrifuge 2 for separation, and the separated solid is anhydrous sodium sulfate. The mother liquor in the first centrifuge 2 enters the heat exchanger 3 for heat exchange and cooling. The cooled mother liquor enters the cooling evaporation device 4. The vacuum pump 7 can ensure that the cooling evaporation device 4 is in a negative pressure state. The mother liquor in the cooling evaporation device 4 evaporates at low temperature. The evaporated liquid enters the second centrifuge 5 for separation. The separated solid is sodium chloride, and the tail liquid in the second separator is returned to the dissolving tank 1.

[0052] Example 2

[0053] This embodiment provides a low-energy separation system for recovering sodium chloride and sodium sulfate. The system's structural principles are the same as those of Example 1, with the following differences: In this embodiment, the water temperature in dissolution tank 1 is maintained at 98°C, and the oxidant added to dissolution tank 1 is sodium hypochlorite, with a mass ratio of sodium hypochlorite to total organic matter in the mixed salt solution of 2.5:1.

[0054] Example 3

[0055] This embodiment provides a low-energy separation system for recovering sodium chloride and sodium sulfate.

The liquid temperature in cooling evaporation device 4 is maintained at 50°C, and the vacuum level in cooling evaporation device 4 is 0.01 MPa.

[0056] In summary, the present application provides a low-energy separation system for the recovery of sodium chloride and sodium sulfate, which is mainly composed of a dissolving tank, a first centrifuge, a heat exchanger, a cooling evaporation device, a second centrifuge, a condensed water tank and a vacuum pump. The dissolving tank is provided with an oxidant feeding port and a mixed salt liquid feeding port. The oxidant is used to eliminate organic matter in the mixed salt, while ensuring that the system is in a supersaturated state, and the undissolved salt is sodium sulfate. Therefore, the system takes into account the problem that the presence of organic matter in the mixed salt will affect the quality of the crystallized salt. By adding an oxidant, the organic matter is oxidized while the mixed salt is dissolved, and no impurity ions are introduced, thereby completing the recovery of sodium sulfate. The sodium sulfate and the mother liquor are separated by a first centrifuge, and the mother liquor is then sent to a heat exchanger to complete heat exchange and cooling with condensed water. The cooled mother liquor is evaporated at a negative pressure and low temperature in a cooling evaporator. After sodium chloride is precipitated, the sodium chloride and the tail liquid are separated by a second centrifuge, and the tail liquid can be sent to a dissolving tank for further treatment. Therefore, this system utilizes the solubility characteristics of the sodium chloride-sodium sulfate-water ternary system at different temperatures to sequentially recover the resources of sodium sulfate and sodium chloride, and utilizes a heat exchanger to realize heat recovery of the mother liquor, and uses the heat to heat the water in the dissolving tank, thereby reducing energy consumption and realizing low-energy consumption and low-cost resource recovery.
