Description

[0002] In the steel smelting industry, vanadium and chromium have significant harmfulness. Dust or smoke generated by vanadium compounds in the smelting process can cause respiratory diseases after inhalation, and even lead to pulmonary fibrosis after long-term exposure. Skin contact can also cause dermatitis. In addition, compounds formed by vanadium at high temperatures can accelerate equipment corrosion and increase maintenance costs. The main harm of chromium comes from hexavalent chromium, which has strong oxidizing properties and poses a serious threat to human health, and can cause lung cancer, skin ulcers and other diseases. Hexavalent chromium is easily dissolved in water and difficult to degrade after polluting the environment. Vanadium and chromium accumulate in the environment, which can pollute soil and water and destroy the ecological balance. Therefore, in the steel smelting process, the use and discharge of vanadium and chromium need to be strictly controlled.

[0003] The traditional vanadium pentoxide industrial wastewater treatment process only detoxifies toxic substances in acidic wastewater, i.e. reduces and neutralizes vanadium and chromium, but does not stepwise recover and utilize valuable metals vanadium and chromium. Moreover, the large amount of calcium and chromium waste residue formed by precipitation has high water content, which is not easy to store and reprocess, and external discharge will cause secondary pollution. Therefore, a vanadium precipitation wastewater treatment system is needed that can stepwise recover and utilize vanadium and chromium, and at the same time better meet environmental protection requirements.
