The application relates to the technical field of
wastewater treatment, in particular to a
system and method for increasing the
sodium sulfate crystallization particle size of
coal chemical
wastewater. The
system comprises an
evaporator, a crystallizer connected to the downstream of the
evaporator, a
heat exchanger in
closed loop communication with the crystallizer, a thickener, the upper part of which is in
closed loop communication with the crystallizer, the thickener is internally provided with a stirrer, and a centrifugal
dewatering machine connected to the bottom of the thickener. After the high-concentration brine is treated by the crystallizer,
crystal slurry is obtained, when the concentration of the
crystal slurry reaches a predetermined concentration, the
crystal slurry is sent into the thickener, the stirrer in the thickener can prolong the
residence time of the crystal slurry in the thickener, so as to increase the crystal particle size of the
crystallization in the thickener. Compared with the
wastewater treatment mode in the background art, in the same time,
solid salt with larger particle size can be obtained, and a larger crystallizer and a circulating
system are not needed, so that the feeding and equipment operation become more difficult.
