Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of waste acid regeneration, in particular to a system for producing high-purity ferrous chloride by utilizing desiliconization to purify waste acid. Background Art
[0002] The main components of waste acid generated during the pickling process in the cold rolling industry are water, FeCl2, HCl, trace metal ions such as manganese, aluminum, copper, calcium, and sodium that are soluble in the acid, and trace impurities such as silicon and phosphate that are insoluble in the acid. For environmental protection and resource recycling, the cold rolling pickling process must be equipped with an acid regeneration unit. Currently, the mainstream waste acid regeneration process generally uses spray roasting or fluidized bed roasting to produce HCl gas and red iron oxide through a high-temperature chemical reaction in the waste acid. The HCl gas is absorbed by water to form regenerated acid for use in the pickling process, and the red iron oxide is sold as a by-product. The red iron oxide produced as a by-product of waste acid regeneration is an important raw material for the magnetic materials industry. To obtain high-quality red iron oxide, the waste acid must be purified to remove harmful impurities. Only by producing qualified purified waste acid can high-quality red iron oxide be produced as a by-product during the acid regeneration process for use in the soft magnetic industry.
[0003] However, due to the multi-variety characteristics of cold-rolled steel grades, during the pickling process, the content of silicon, copper, manganese, etc. in the waste acid is much higher than the design value of the steel grade in the original process due to changes in the steel grade; at the same time, in order to reduce costs, the steel production process often requires the use of secondary water, which brings impurities such as calcium, sodium, and magnesium into the waste acid. Impurities such as silicon, copper, and aluminum can generate SiO2, Cu(OH)2, and Al(OH)3 that are difficult to dissolve in water in the ordinary desiliconization process, and are thus removed in the form of precipitation. However, impurities such as manganese, calcium, and sodium that are soluble in water cannot be removed during the neutralization flocculation precipitation desiliconization waste acid purification process, which leads to serious excess of impurities such as manganese, calcium, sodium, and magnesium in the iron oxide red produced by acid regeneration, which cannot meet the use requirements of the soft magnetic industry.
[0004] In view of this, the present utility model is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0024] Example 1
[0025] Combine Figure 1 As shown, the system for producing high-purity ferrous chloride by desiliconization purification of waste acid in this embodiment includes a purification system and a purification system, the purification system includes a neutralization tower 1, a reaction tank 4, a mixing tank 8, a settling tank 9 and a purified waste acid tank 13 arranged in sequence, the purification system includes an evaporator 15, a centrifugal separator 16, a stirring and dissolving tank 17 and a ferrous chloride storage tank 18 arranged in sequence, and the inlet of the evaporator 15 is connected to the outlet of the purified waste acid tank 13.
[0026] The purification system is primarily used to purify waste acid to produce purified waste acid. It consists of a neutralization tower 1, a reaction tank 4, a mixing tank 8, a settling tank 9, and a purified waste acid tank 13. Neutralization tower 1 is equipped with a waste acid inlet, a shredded steel bar inlet, and a waste acid outlet. A heating heat exchanger 2 is installed at the waste acid inlet for heating the waste acid, and an electromagnetic hoist 11 is installed at the shredded steel bar inlet for hoisting shredded steel bars 12 into the neutralization tower 1. After being heated by the heating heat exchanger 2, the waste acid reacts with the shredded steel bars 12 in the neutralization tower 1. This reaction removes most of the free hydrochloric acid. The waste acid after reaction in the neutralization tower 1 then enters the reaction tank 4.
[0027] The reaction tank 4 is provided with a waste acid inlet, an ammonia water inlet, a compressed air inlet, and a waste acid outlet. A cooling heat exchanger 3 for cooling the waste acid is provided at the inlet end of the waste acid inlet, and the ammonia water inlet is connected to the ammonia water tank 5. The waste acid after the reaction in the neutralization tower 1 is cooled by the cooling heat exchanger 3 and then enters the reaction tank 4. At the same time, the ammonia water in the ammonia water tank 5 enters the reaction tank 4 through the ammonia water inlet. The pH value of the waste acid is adjusted by the ammonia water to generate a small amount of Fe(OH)2. Compressed air is then introduced into the reaction tank 4 through the compressed air inlet to oxidize the Fe(OH)2 into Fe(OH)3. Fe(OH)3 has a stable flocculent structure. The characteristics of the Fe(OH)3 flocculent structure are used to adsorb acid-insoluble impurities such as silicon in the waste acid. At the same time, in the process of adjusting the pH value with ammonia water, metal ions such as Cu and Al in the waste acid will form hydroxide precipitates. The above two effects can achieve the purpose of removing impurities in the waste acid.
[0028] After the reaction in reactor 4, the spent acid then enters mixing tank 8, which is equipped with a flocculant inlet, a spent acid inlet, and a spent acid outlet. The flocculant inlet is connected to flocculant storage tank 7. Flocculant storage tank 7 is connected to flocculant dissolution tank 6, which is equipped with a flocculant outlet and a desalted water inlet. In mixing tank 8, the spent acid is mixed with the flocculant, and impurities such as the precipitate and flocs formed by the reaction are flocculated and precipitated through flocculation and precipitation.
[0029] The flocculated waste acid then enters the sedimentation tank 9 for sedimentation. The sedimentation tank 9 is equipped with a mixed liquid inlet, a purified waste acid outlet, and a sediment outlet. The mixed liquid inlet is connected to the mixing tank 8, the purified waste acid outlet is connected to the purified waste acid tank 13, and the sediment outlet is connected to the filter press 10. The filter press 10 is equipped with a filtrate outlet and a filter cake outlet, and the filtrate outlet is connected to the sedimentation tank 9. The purified waste acid formed by sedimentation in the sedimentation tank 9 is sent to the purified waste acid tank 13. The sediment then enters the filter press 10 for filtration. The filtrate returns to the sedimentation tank 9, and the filter cake is shipped out.
[0030] The purified waste acid tank 13 is provided with a purified waste acid inlet, a hydrochloric acid inlet, and a purified waste acid outlet. The purified waste acid outlet is connected to an evaporator 15 via a heat exchanger 14. The purified waste acid in the purified waste acid tank 13 then enters the evaporator 15 for OSLO energy-saving evaporation and recrystallization. The evaporator 15 is provided with a purified waste acid inlet, a steam inlet, and an outlet for ferrous chloride crystals. The outlet for ferrous chloride crystals is connected to a centrifugal separator 16. After evaporation and recrystallization, high-purity ferrous chloride is generated, and soluble impurity ions such as manganese, calcium, sodium, and magnesium are removed.
[0031] The high-purity ferrous chloride then enters the stirring and dissolving tank 17 for dissolution. The stirring and dissolving tank is provided with a ferrous chloride crystal inlet, a desalted water inlet and a ferrous chloride solution outlet. The ferrous chloride solution outlet is connected to the ferrous chloride storage tank 18. The stirring and dissolving tank prepares the high-purity ferrous chloride into a ferrous chloride solution of appropriate concentration and then performs acid regeneration.
[0032] Furthermore, a spray roasting device (not shown) is provided at the outlet end of the ferrous chloride storage tank 18, and the ferrous chloride storage tank 18 in the ferrous chloride storage tank 18 is spray roasted by the spray roasting device to produce high-purity iron oxide red.
[0033] The system of this embodiment removes most of the free hydrochloric acid in the waste acid through the neutralization tower 1, and produces ferric hydroxide through the reaction tank 4. The flocculent structure of the ferric hydroxide is used to adsorb acid-insoluble impurities such as silicon in the waste acid. At the same time, by adjusting the pH value, metal ions such as Cu and Al in the waste acid are formed into hydroxide precipitates. Then, a flocculant is added through the mixing tank 8, and the formed precipitates, floccules and other impurities are removed by flocculation and precipitation, thereby forming purified waste acid. In addition, the purified waste acid is evaporated and crystallized through the evaporator 15 to produce pure ferrous chloride crystals, thereby leaving soluble impurities such as manganese, calcium, sodium, and magnesium in the mother liquor. The ferrous chloride is dissolved by the stirring and dissolving tank 17 to produce a high-purity ferrous chloride solution. The high-purity ferrous chloride solution can produce a high-quality iron oxide red product that meets the standards through acid regeneration spray roasting. The system can adapt to the pickling of various steel grades in cold rolling pickling, which is beneficial to providing high-quality iron oxide red raw materials for the magnetic material industry.
