Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of phosphoric acid post-processing technology, and in particular to an industrial-grade phosphoric acid post-processing device. Background Technology
[0002] Phosphoric acid has a wide range of applications, spanning chemical, agricultural, food, pharmaceutical, and new energy fields. Based on raw material sources, process conditions, and product quality, phosphoric acid is mainly produced through two processes: thermal and wet processes. Thermal phosphoric acid produces higher purity and is an important raw material for the preparation of fine phosphates; however, its high input costs and energy consumption make it unaffordable for most companies. In contrast, wet-process phosphoric acid, with its advantages of low energy consumption and low cost, has gradually replaced the thermal process. By 2024, the capacity share of wet-process phosphoric acid had reached 76.5% (3.48 million tons / total capacity 4.55 million tons); this proportion is expected to further increase in 2025. Currently, energy consumption optimization in the wet-process phosphoric acid mainly focuses on the post-concentration processing stage.
[0003] Currently, energy consumption optimization in wet-process phosphoric acid mainly focuses on the post-concentration treatment stage. However, existing wet-process phosphoric acid post-treatment processes still have three shortcomings: firstly, the single-effect pre-concentration efficiency is low; secondly, the secondary steam generated during defluorination is only condensed through cooling circulating water, without coupling and reuse, resulting in energy waste; and thirdly, the bleaching unit is located at the end of the post-treatment process, making it difficult to stably control the product acid concentration. To address these issues, this application proposes a wet-process purified phosphoric acid post-treatment device. This device, by fully utilizing secondary steam, optimizing the bleaching unit layout, and improving the deep purification capacity for impurities such as fluorine, significantly reduces energy consumption while ensuring product quality. This will contribute to the long-term stable development of my country's phosphoric acid chemical industry. Utility Model Content

[0048] The apparatus of this invention is used for the post-processing of industrial-grade phosphoric acid: Back-extracted acid with a phosphoric acid concentration of 35% is used as raw material. Using defluorination secondary steam as a heat source, it is pre-concentrated to 75% through a double-effect process. The 75% pre-concentrated acid is then decolorized and bleached before entering a defluorination tower for defluorination. The defluorinated acid is then finally concentrated to 85% of the final product acid. The fluorine content, TOC, and color of the final product acid meet the requirements for food-grade phosphoric acid. The specific process flow is as follows:
[0049] (1) Dual-effect pre-concentration
[0050] The 50°C back-extraction acid (35% H3PO4, all acid concentrations below are calculated as H3PO4) from outside the boundary is heated to 65°C through heat exchange between the back-extraction acid preheater 1 and the defluorinated acidic condensate from the pre-concentration I-effect heater 201. It then enters the pre-concentration I-effect circulating pump 203 inlet of the pre-concentration I-effect component 2, where it is forcibly circulated and heated by the external heater of the pre-concentration I-effect flash chamber 202 (the heat source for the pre-concentration I-effect heater 201 comes from the secondary defluorination steam at the top of defluorination tower 6) and concentrated. The concentrated 47% back-extraction acid overflows from the pre-concentration I-effect flash chamber 202 to the pre-concentration II-effect circulating pump 203 inlet of the pre-concentration II-effect component 3, where it is forcibly circulated and heated by the external heater of the pre-concentration II-effect flash chamber 302. (The heat source for the pre-concentration II effect heater 301 comes from the secondary steam in the pre-concentration I effect flash chamber 202.) Evaporation and concentration are performed, and the concentration of the pre-concentrated acid reaches 75%. The acid overflows from the pre-concentration II effect flash chamber 302 to the pre-concentration acid tank 10 for buffering. The vacuum degree of the pre-concentration II effect flash chamber 302 is controlled at 90 kPa. The secondary steam from the pre-concentration II effect flash chamber 302 undergoes direct heat exchange and condensation with the acidic circulating water in the pre-concentration condenser 18. The vacuum non-condensable gas exiting from the top of the pre-concentration condenser 18 is separated from the entrained acidic water by the vacuum air-liquid separator 16. The vacuum non-condensable gas is then evacuated by the vacuum pump 17 and discharged to the external tail gas scrubbing system for washing and compliant discharge. The acidic circulating water return from the bottom of the pre-concentration condenser 18 flows by gravity to the external acidic circulating water station for cooling and recycling.
[0051] (2) Decolorization and bleaching
[0052] The pre-concentrated acid from the pre-concentrated acid tank 10 is pumped by the pre-concentrated acid pump 11 to the pre-concentrated acid preheater 4. After being heated to 125°C by low-pressure steam, it enters the decolorization and bleaching tower 5. At this time, 27.5% hydrogen peroxide from the hydrogen peroxide tank 12 enters the decolorization and bleaching tower 5 through the hydrogen peroxide metering pump 13 with proportional control of the hydrogen peroxide flow rate. The organic matter in the pre-concentrated acid is removed by the quantitative addition of hydrogen peroxide. The tail gas from the top of the decolorization and bleaching tower 5 enters the bleaching gas-liquid separator 16, where the acidic liquid entrained in the bleaching tail gas is separated. Then, it is transported by the bleaching tail gas fan 17 to the external tail gas scrubbing system for washing and discharge after meeting emission standards. The pre-concentrated acid after decolorization and bleaching overflows from the top of the decolorization and bleaching tower 5 into the bleaching acid tank 14 for buffering. By adjusting the amount of hydrogen peroxide added to the bleaching tower, the total organic carbon (TOC) in the bleaching acid is controlled below 50 ppm, and the color is less than 16 black.
[0053] (3) Defluorination
[0054] Bleaching acid from bleaching acid tank 14 is fed to the upper part of defluorination tower 6 via bleaching acid pump 15. It comes into full contact with the low-pressure steam entering from the bottom of defluorination tower 6 and strips off the fluorides in the bleaching acid. The defluorination secondary steam from the top of defluorination tower 6 is connected to the pre-concentration first-effect heater 201 as the heat source for heating, evaporating and concentrating the pre-concentration first-effect flash chamber 202, so as to realize the recovery and utilization of defluorination secondary steam. The fluorine content (calculated as F) in the defluorinated acid after stripping at the bottom of defluorination tower 6 is controlled below 8 ppm.
[0055] (4) Final concentration
[0056] The defluorinated acid at the bottom of the defluorination tower 6 is pumped by the defluorinated acid pump 7 to the outlet of the final concentration heater 81 and enters the final concentration assembly 8. It then enters the final concentration flash chamber 82, where it is circulated and heated by the final concentration circulation pump 83 and the final concentration heater 81, resulting in 85% final concentrated acid. The acid overflows from the final concentration flash chamber 82 to the final concentrated acid tank 23 for buffering, and is then pumped by the final concentrated acid pump 24 to the product acid cooler 9 for cooling before being stored in the off-site product acid tank area. The vacuum degree of the final concentration flash chamber 82 is controlled at 90 kPa. The secondary steam at the top of its evaporation chamber is condensed by direct heat exchange with the acidic circulating water in the final concentration condenser 19. The vacuum non-condensable gas exiting the top of the condenser is separated from the entrained acidic water by the vacuum air-liquid separator 20. The vacuum non-condensable gas is then evacuated by the vacuum pump 21 and discharged to the off-site tail gas scrubbing system for washing and compliant discharge. The acidic circulating water at the bottom of the final concentration condenser 19 flows by gravity to the off-site acidic circulating water station for cooling and recycling. The acidic condensate discharged from the vacuum air-liquid separator 20, the back-extraction acid preheater 201, and the pre-concentration II-effect heater 301 enters the acidic condensate tank 22 for buffering and is then pumped to the outside for recycling as washing water.
[0057] This invention employs a double-effect pre-concentration process using defluorination secondary steam, hydrogen peroxide decolorization and bleaching, steam stripping defluorination, and final concentration to obtain a phosphoric acid product with a fluorine content (calculated as F) of 5-9 ppm, a total organic carbon (TOC) of 30-55 ppm, and a color of 15-20 black. The three post-processing indicators meet the standard requirements of GB1886.304-2020, "Food Additive Phosphoric Acid (Wet Process)".
