Description

A phosphogypsum recycling system

[0001] This application claims priority to Chinese patent application 2024226753707, filed on November 4, 2024. The entire contents of the aforementioned Chinese patent application are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0002] This invention relates to a phosphogypsum recycling system. Background Technology

[0003] Phosphogypsum is an industrial waste produced during the production of phosphate fertilizers. Its main component is calcium sulfate dihydrate (CaSO4·2H2O). The wet process production of 1 ton of phosphoric acid (calculated as P2O5) generates approximately 5 tons of phosphogypsum. Currently, the world's annual phosphogypsum emissions are approximately 200 million tons, while my country's annual emissions exceed 20 million tons, with stockpiles exceeding 300 million tons. The utilization rate is only 30%. Besides occupying a large amount of land, phosphogypsum stockpiles also cause environmental problems such as dust, groundwater, and soil pollution.

[0004] With the continuous expansion of the wet-process phosphoric acid processing industry both domestically and internationally, the comprehensive utilization of phosphogypsum has become a common issue for the sustainable development of the industry. The main ways to comprehensively utilize phosphogypsum in my country are to replace natural gypsum in the production of cement retarders, the preparation of building materials, the production of soil conditioners, and the co-production of acid and cement.

[0005] While these methods are currently used industrially, they are insufficient to solve the comprehensive utilization of phosphogypsum. For example, although effective in producing cement retarders, their application is limited by the scale of cement production and the number of manufacturers using phosphogypsum to replace natural gypsum. The use of phosphogypsum in building materials is also limited due to the high impurity content affecting material performance. Phosphogypsum can be used to produce soil conditioners for saline-alkali land and soil structure improvement, but its widespread adoption still has a long way to go. The co-production of acid and cement from phosphogypsum is still in its early stages, requiring highly precise instruments and equipment for raw material preparation. The operation and control of rotary kilns are challenging due to the narrow decomposition range of gypsum and numerous side reactions. Therefore, the process of co-producing acid and cement from phosphogypsum still requires innovation and improvement in both technology and operation. Summary of the Invention

[0036] In this embodiment, the raw material inlets include a phosphogypsum inlet and a dilute acid inlet. In this embodiment, the pickling tank V-101 is equipped with a stirring device. In this embodiment, the height of the pickling slurry outlet is lower than the height of the pickling clear liquid outlet.

The acid gas outlet can be located at the top of the reactor R-101, and the product outlet can be located at the bottom of the reactor R-101. In this invention, the furnace chamber of the reactor R-101 is lined with refractory bricks.

[0037] In this embodiment, the pickling solution outlet is also connected to the pickling solution treatment unit, which includes a pickling solution collection tank V-102 and a slurry filter F-102. The pickling solution collection tank V-102 is provided with a clear solution inlet, a treatment agent inlet, and a slurry outlet.

In this embodiment, the slurry filter F-102 is a plate and frame filter.

[0038] In this embodiment, an acid pickling slurry treatment unit may be provided between the pickling slurry outlet and the coarse product inlet. The acid pickling slurry treatment unit includes an acid pickling slurry filter F-101 and a dryer D-101. The acid pickling slurry filter F-101 has an acid pickling slurry inlet, an acid pickling filtrate outlet, and an acid pickling filter cake outlet. The dryer D-101 has an acid pickling filter cake inlet, a coarse product outlet, and a tail gas outlet. The acid pickling slurry inlet is connected to the acid pickling slurry outlet, the acid pickling filter cake outlet is connected to the acid pickling filter cake inlet, the coarse product outlet is connected to the coarse product inlet, and the acid pickling filtrate outlet is connected to the clear liquid inlet. In this embodiment, the dryer D-101 is a drum dryer.

[0039] In this embodiment, the waste phosphogypsum generated during the phosphate fertilizer production process is recycled and reused to generate products such as calcium oxide and acidic gas containing SO2. This involves the following four processing steps:

[0040] 1. Acid hydrolysis of phosphogypsum with dilute sulfuric acid: The phosphogypsum entering through the feed inlet is mainly composed of dihydrate gypsum (CaSO4·2H2O), and also contains small amounts of phosphoric acid, silicon, fluorine, magnesium, iron, aluminum, and organic impurities. The Fe in the phosphogypsum... 3+ Al 3+ F - Na + K +Metal ions are stirred in pickling tank V-101 to achieve more complete dissolution and more effective removal of impurities, resulting in higher purity calcium oxide. Most of these impurity ions dissolve in dilute sulfuric acid (25wt%-30wt%) introduced from the dilute acid inlet. The mass ratio of phosphogypsum to dilute sulfuric acid is 1:(1.5-3). After pickling, the pH of the phosphogypsum is controlled between 5 and 6. The dilute acid removes approximately 95%-98% of the phosphorus, 50%-60% of silicon, 50%-60% of iron, 70%-80% of fluorine, and 65%-75% of potassium. Small amounts of silicon, fluorine, aluminum, and iron remain after pickling. The washing liquid from the phosphogypsum pickling is fed into clarifier T-101. This liquid, a liquid-solid mixture, settles in clarifier T-101, separating into two layers: a lower slurry layer and an upper clear liquid layer. The clarifier T-101 operates at room temperature and a pressure of approximately 0.3 MPaG.

[0041] 2. Solid filtration, drying and pulverization: The pickling slurry in the lower layer of the clarifier T-101 enters the pickling slurry filter F-101 for filtration. The filtered pickling liquid is then passed into the pickling liquid collection tank V-102. The filtered pickling filter cake enters the dryer D-101 for drying at a temperature of 150-160℃ to obtain a crude product. The generated tail gas is sent to the acid tail washing tower.

[0042] 3. Calcination: The crude product enters reactor R-101 and reacts with the coal gas introduced through the fuel inlet. This reaction requires high temperature to ensure complete reaction and reduce the occurrence of side reactions. Reactor R-101 operates at atmospheric pressure, and the reaction temperature is 1350-1450℃. The main reactions occurring here are:

[0043] CaSO4 + CO = SO2 + CaO + CO2

[0044] CaSO4 + H2 = SO2 + CaO + H2O

[0045] After a series of processing steps, the main component of phosphogypsum, CaSO4, reacts with coal gas to produce solid CaO, which flows to the product outlet. Because the reaction occurs in excess coal gas, the subsequent calcination yields not only CaO and SO2, but also CO2 and CO as byproducts. This gas can be used as syngas in the wet sulfuric acid production unit.

[0046] 4. Deep Treatment of Waste Liquid: The pickling liquid from the upper layer of clarifier T-101 and the pickling slurry obtained from filter F-101 enter the pickling liquid collection tank V-102. CaO is added through the feed inlet of the treatment agent, and a reaction occurs to form CaF2 precipitate. The main reactions occurring here are:

[0047] 2F -+CaO(s)+H2O→CaF2(s)+2OH -

[0048] The obtained slurry is filtered by the slurry filter F-102, and the resulting reflux filtrate is fed into the pickling tank V-101 for washing and recycling. The resulting CaF2 solid is collected and stored.

[0054] In this embodiment, the dryer D-101 is a drum dryer. The drum of the drum dryer is slightly tilted and can rotate.

The drum of the drum dryer is equipped with forward lifting plates, which continuously lift and sprinkle the material during the rotation of the drum, so that it can fully contact the hot airflow, thereby improving the drying efficiency and moving the material forward.

[0055] In this embodiment, the acid gas outlet and the product outlet are also connected to the product processing unit.

The second product outlet and the product outlet are connected to the inlet of the silo V-103. The outlet of the silo V-103 is also connected to the inlet of the product crusher X-104.

[0056] In this embodiment, the main components of phosphogypsum are: approximately 86.7 wt% CaSO4·2H2O, approximately 8.8 wt% SiO2, approximately 2.4 wt% Ca3P2O8, and trace amounts of MgO, CaF2, and Fe2(SO4)3. The total phosphogypsum volume is 2026 kg / h, and the treatment process is as follows:

[0057] The phosphogypsum entering from the raw material feed inlet and the 30 wt% dilute sulfuric acid entering from the dilute acid feed inlet are dissolved with stirring in the pickling tank V-101 at a mass ratio of 1:2, generating a variety of sulfate solutions and a precipitate mixture. The obtained solid-liquid mixture is pumped into the clarification tower T-101 by the washing liquid pump P-101 and settles in the clarification tower T-101 into two layers, namely the lower slurry layer and the upper clear liquid layer.
