The invention belongs to the technical field of
iodine removal of light salt brine, and particularly relates to a method for removing high-valence
iodine in ionic membrane caustic soda light salt brine. Comprising the following steps: (1) adding a pH
regulator and
sodium sulfite into light salt brine, regulating the pH to 1-3, stirring until the reaction is completed, and carrying out primary adsorption deiodination by adopting a composite adsorbent to obtain light salt brine 1; and (2) adding a pH
regulator and
hydrogen peroxide into the light salt brine 1, regulating the pH value to 1-2, stirring until the reaction is completed, and carrying out secondary adsorption by adopting a composite adsorbent to remove
iodine, thereby obtaining the deiodinated light salt brine. According to the removal method disclosed by the invention, high-valence iodine such as
periodate and
iodate in the light salt brine is converted into low-valence iodine such as
iodate and
iodide ions by utilizing the reducibility of
sodium sulfite and the oxidation-reduction property of
hydrogen peroxide in the coexistence of
iodide ions and
iodate, and then is further converted into simple substance iodine, and the simple substance iodine is efficiently removed by utilizing a composite adsorbent; the process is simple, the cost is low, the removal rate is high, and the removal effect is good.
