Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of industrial wastewater treatment technology, and in particular to a method and apparatus for dehardening, desulfurizing and dechlorinating high-salt wastewater using carbide slag. Background Technology
[0002] With increasingly stringent environmental standards, industrial enterprises are placing higher demands on achieving near-zero discharge of high-salinity wastewater. High-salinity wastewater, particularly from power plants and the chemical industry, typically contains large amounts of calcium. 2+ Mg 2+ SO4 2- With Cl - Plasma components not only lead to high water hardness, but may also cause severe scaling and corrosion during subsequent membrane treatment and thermal concentration processes, affecting equipment operational stability and reuse efficiency.
[0003] Several hardening and desalination technologies have been proposed. For example, Chinese invention patent CN119143314A provides a method for hardening using a combination of sodium carbonate and magnesium chloride solutions. This method can effectively precipitate calcium ions, but its removal efficiency for magnesium ions is limited; and although magnesium chloride can accelerate the formation of calcium sulfate precipitation under alkaline conditions, incomplete precipitation still exists. Furthermore, the formed magnesium carbonate colloid interferes with the ion reaction process, making the precipitate difficult to separate or recover, thus limiting its applicability to complex wastewater systems with high loads and high hardness.
[0004] To reduce processing costs, Chinese patent CN117700017A attempted to use low-cost sodium sulfate to replace part of the sodium carbonate to remove calcium ions. While this method is somewhat economical, it is limited to removing hardness and cannot effectively remove SO4. 2- and Cl - Plasmatic components. In high-salinity wastewater, the presence of these anions will severely limit the wastewater concentration ratio and the depth of reuse.
[0005] For SO4 2- and Cl - Currently, SO4 removal mainly relies on membrane concentration followed by evaporation and crystallization, but this process requires high investment and consumes a lot of energy, limiting its industrial-scale application. In addition, while ion exchange and electrochemical technologies can remove SO4, they are not the only methods available. 2- and Cl - However, it has problems such as high operating costs and frequent replacement of resin or electrodes.
[0006] In recent years, studies have proposed the "ultra-high lime-alumina method" for removing Cl. - Anion removal methods, such as those described in patent CN112429877A, involve reacting sodium aluminate with Ca(OH)₂ under high pH conditions to form Freund's salt precipitate, thereby removing chloride ions. However, this method suffers from insufficient sulfate pretreatment, and SO₄²⁻...2- The residue will significantly inhibit the subsequent precipitation reaction of chloride ions. In addition, most of these methods use conventional reagents such as lime and sodium carbonate, which are still costly, and the precipitates are difficult to utilize as resources.
[0007] To address the aforementioned issues, this application optimizes and upgrades the traditional dual-alkali process, proposing a method and apparatus for the overall dehardening, desulfurization, and dechlorination of high-salinity wastewater using an ultra-high lime-aluminate process with calcium carbide slag. This method removes key pollutants such as heavy metals, magnesium ions, sulfate ions, chloride ions, and calcium ions sequentially through a staged reaction. During the reaction, calcium carbide slag replaces traditional lime, significantly reducing treatment costs; a two-stage calcium carbide slag-sodium aluminate reaction unit is introduced to reduce SO4 levels. 2- The calcium ions react with C1 to form ettringite and Fraunhofer salt precipitates, effectively avoiding reaction inhibition. CO2 gas is introduced at the end, supplemented with Na2CO3 for adjustment, to achieve complete removal of calcium ions, while simultaneously reducing the system pH and conductivity, thus lessening the burden on subsequent treatment. This method also achieves solid-liquid separation through plate and frame filtration or centrifugation. The resulting ettringite and Fraunhofer salt precipitates can be used as components of cementitious materials or for the stabilization treatment of heavy metal / salt pollutants, demonstrating good economic and environmental performance. It is particularly suitable for the deep treatment and zero-discharge transformation of high-salinity wastewater in power plants, coal chemical industries, and other fields. Utility Model Content

[0082] The principles involved in this application are explained as follows:
[0083] 1. Principle of heavy metal removal:
[0084] Heavy metal ions in high-salinity wastewater can harm the ecological environment and corrode equipment. This application achieves efficient removal of heavy metals through a two-step reaction:
[0085] (1) Alkali precipitation of carbide slag: The carbide slag dissolves and releases OH, causing heavy metals to form hydroxide precipitates. The reaction formula for this process is shown in (1):
[0086] M 2+ +2OH - →M(OH)2↓ (1)
[0087] Where M 2+ Represents heavy metal ions.
[0088] (2) TMT-15 sulfide precipitation: The organic sulfur reagent TMT-15 reacts with residual heavy metal ions to form a more stable sulfide precipitate. The reaction formula for this process is shown in (2):
[0089] M 2+ +(TMT15)→MS↓+(Other products) (2)
[0090] 2. Principle of magnesium ion removal:
[0091] The wastewater after heavy metal removal enters the magnesium precipitation tank, where calcium carbide slag is added to achieve magnesium precipitation. 2+ Remove:
[0092] The main reaction is the formation of magnesium hydroxide precipitate, and the reaction equation for this process is shown in (3):
[0093] Mg 2+ +Ca(OH)₂→Mg(OH)₂↓+Ca 2+ (3)
[0094] At room temperature, Ksp[Mg(OH)2] = 1.2 × 10⁻⁶ -11 < <Ksp[Ca(OH)2]=5.5×10 -6 Ksp is the solubility; therefore, Mg(OH)2 can be removed from wastewater through solid-liquid separation.
[0095] Simultaneous removal of some carbonate and sulfate ions, the reaction equations for this process are shown in (4), (5), and (6):
[0096] HCO 3- +OH - →CO3 2- +H2O (4)
[0097] Ca 2+ +CO3 2- →CaCO3↓ (5)
[0098] Ca 2+ +SO4 2- →CaSO4↓ (6)
[0099] 3. Desulfurization and dechlorination principle:
[0100] (1) Utilizing calcium carbide slag to provide Ca 2+ and OH - Sodium aluminate provides Al 3+ The process involves the stepwise formation of ettringite and Freund's salt.
[0101] Sodium aluminate undergoes hydrolysis, and the reaction equations for this process are shown in (7) and (8):
[0102] 2NaAlO2+4H2O→2Al(OH)3+2NaOH (7)
[0103] Al(OH)3+OH - →Al(OH)4 - (8)
[0104] (2) First stage desulfurization and dechlorination: priority is given to desulfurization, and chlorination is removed simultaneously. SO4 2- Competitive inhibition Cl - Removed, but still produces a small amount of Freund's salt; SO4 2- With Ca 2+ Al(OH)4 - Erythrite (Ca6Al2(SO4)3(OH) is formed. 12 The reaction equation for this process is shown in (9):
[0105] 6Ca 2+ +2Al(OH)4 - +3SO4 2- +4OH - →Ca6Al2(SO4)3(OH) 12 ↓ (9)
[0106] (3) Second stage deep dechlorination: Excessive addition of reagents causes Cl to... - Freund's salt (Ca4Al2Cl2(OH)) is formed. 12 The reaction equation for this process is shown in (10):
[0107] 4Ca 2+ +2Al(OH)4 - +2Cl - +4OH - →Ca4Al2Cl2(OH) 12 ↓ (10)
[0108] 4. Principle of calcium ion removal
[0109] Wastewater containing excessive Ca after deep dechlorination 2+ Carbonization precipitation method is used to remove:
[0110] (1) CO2 acidification and conversion, the reaction equations for this process are shown in (11), (12), and (13):
[0111] CO2 + H2O → H2CO3 (11)
[0112] H2CO3→HCO3 - +H + (12)
[0113] HCO3 - +OH - →CO3 2- +H2O (13)
[0114] (2) CaCO3 precipitate is formed. The reaction equation for this process is shown in (14):
[0115] Ca 2+ +CO3 2- →CaCO3↓ (14)
[0116] (3) Enhanced calcium removal: When CO2 carbonization is insufficient, adding Na2CO3 directly provides CO3. 2- The reaction equation for this process is shown in (15):
[0117] Ca 2+ +Na₂CO₃→CaCO₃↓+2Na + (15)

[0139] The beneficial effects of using the embodiments of this application are as follows:
[0140] (1) This application utilizes the alkaline conditions provided by carbide slag in a neutralization tank in conjunction with TMT-15 organic sulfur reagent to achieve synergistic precipitation and removal of heavy metal ions from high-salt wastewater. This combination effectively reduces heavy metal residues, minimizes the corrosion risk of subsequent treatment systems, and improves the stability and safety of the overall treatment process.

The system has strong stability and is easy to operate.
