Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of electronic-grade sulfuric acid preparation and electronic waste liquid recycling, specifically relating to a production system for efficiently preparing high-purity electronic-grade sulfuric acid from waste sulfuric acid. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the global consumption of electronic-grade sulfuric acid has reached 1.5 million tons. After being used with SPM solution, the amount reaches more than 1.8 million tons. As chip manufacturing processes gradually improve from 28nm to 14nm and 7nm, the amount of waste sulfuric acid discharged is increasing year by year. Due to its high treatment difficulty and environmental protection requirements, its treatment cost is increasing, which increases the environmental and production and operation burden on enterprises.
[0003] Currently, semiconductor factories typically neutralize waste sulfuric acid with acid before outsourcing its disposal to specialized organizations. This process is not only costly and difficult but also results in a significant waste of non-metallic sulfur resources. At present, electronic-grade waste sulfuric acid is transferred to qualified organizations for disposal at a cost of additional payment for transportation and disposal fees. However, achieving high purity and removing metal ions are difficult in existing electronic-grade sulfuric acid production processes. Therefore, a high-efficiency production system for producing high-purity electronic-grade sulfuric acid from waste sulfuric acid is needed to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0021] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1 The sulfuric acid production system shown includes
[0022] Waste acid storage tank 1 is connected in sequence to filter device 2, oxidation tank 3 and incinerator 5 via pipelines;
[0023] The incinerator 5 is connected to the flue gas treatment system 4, heat exchanger 6 and scrubbing tower 7 via pipelines;
[0024] The washing tower 7 is connected in sequence to the catalytic oxidation tower 8, SO3 absorption tower 9, concentration tower 10, distillation tower 11, condenser 12, ion exchanger 13, ultrafiltration device 14 and high-purity sulfuric acid storage tank 15 via pipelines.
[0025] Specifically, the filter device 2 uses a ceramic filter element or a polytetrafluoroethylene membrane.
[0026] Specifically, flue gas treatment system 4 is a wet scrubbing tower.
[0027] Specifically, the catalyst in catalytic oxidation tower 8 is V2O5.
[0028] Specifically, the inner lining of the concentration tower 10 is made of graphite or tetrafluoroethylene.

[0030] Specifically, the filtration pore size of the ultrafiltration device 14 is 0.1 μm.
[0031] This efficient production system for producing high-purity electronic-grade sulfuric acid from waste sulfuric acid collects waste sulfuric acid (containing 70%-98% H2SO4, organic impurities, metal ions, etc.) from the semiconductor, chemical, and metallurgical industries and stores it in waste acid storage tank 1. The acid then flows through pipelines to filtration device 2 (coarse filtration), where ceramic filter elements or PTFE membranes remove large particulate solids. After filtration, the acid enters oxidation tank 3 (aeration oxidation, 60-80℃), where oxygen or ozone is introduced to oxidize organic impurities, reducing color and organic pollution. Next, it enters incinerator 5 (850-1100℃), where natural gas or coke oven gas is used to burn the waste acid, decomposing H2SO4. During combustion, heat exchanger 6 recovers some of the combustion heat, improving energy efficiency. Flue gas treatment system 4 (wet scrubbing tower, 50-70℃) removes dust and residual impurities generated during combustion. Finally, the acid enters scrubbing tower 7 (30-50℃, packed tower), where water or dilute sulfuric acid is sprayed to remove HF, Cl2, and NO. x After the acidic impurity gases are removed, they enter the catalytic oxidation tower 8 (V2O5 catalyst, 400-450℃) to convert SO2 into SO3, improving the subsequent sulfuric acid absorption efficiency. The mixture then proceeds to the SO3 absorption tower 9 (98-99% H2SO4, atmospheric pressure, packed tower), where SO3 is absorbed by concentrated sulfuric acid, increasing the sulfuric acid concentration. The mixture then passes through the concentration tower 10 (120-200℃, negative pressure) to evaporate moisture, further increasing the sulfuric acid concentration to >99%. The concentration tower 10 is lined with acid-resistant materials such as graphite or PTFE. The mixture then enters the distillation tower 11 (low pressure, silica gel packing) for further impurity separation, removing trace amounts of moisture, nitrogen oxides, silicates, etc. The distillation temperature is controlled at approximately 300℃ to prevent decomposition. The high-purity sulfuric acid is cooled by the condenser 12 (quartz cooling tube, 0-10℃) to reduce evaporation losses. Finally, trace metal ions, such as Fe, are removed by the ion exchanger 13 (resin column, pH 1-2). 3+ Cu 2+ Al 3+ To improve electronic-grade purity, an ultrafiltration device 14 (nanofiltration, 0.1μm) removes particulate impurities, ultimately yielding ultra-high purity sulfuric acid, which is stored in a high-purity sulfuric acid storage tank 15 (PTFE-lined, 316L stainless steel).
