The invention provides a method for producing
iron oxide yellow and
iron oxide red by using a waste
hydrochloric acid solution. The method comprises the following steps: 1, purifying the waste
hydrochloric acid solution: taking a steel waste acid solution, adjusting the pH value, adding a certain amount of waste sheet iron, carrying out controlled temperature
hydrolysis for 18-24h, adding a flocculating agent, standing for above 24h, and taking the obtained supernatant; 2, preparing
crystal seeds: adding the solution obtained in step 1, liquid alkali and water into a
crystal seed tank, controlling the temperature and the pH value, and carrying out a preliminary oxidation reaction on
ferrous chloride to generate a small amount of
iron oxide nuclei; 3, carrying out an oxidation reaction: pumping the nuclei into an oxidation tank, adding sheet iron and water, and introducing
compressed air to fully oxidize in order to generate iron
oxide crystals on the nuclei; 4,
processing byproducts; and 5, carrying out purifying post-treatment. A
raw material used in the invention is the steel cleaning
hydrochloric acid waste liquid, and is processed to generate useful products comprising iron
oxide red and
iron oxide yellow, so the waste is changed to valuables. Pigments produced through the method have the advantages of good
staining degree, pure and right color, and good
client feedback.
