Technical Field

Background
At present, the exploitation of nitrate ore and the production of sodium sulfate mainly use solid nitrate ore as raw material, and the nitrate ore is mined and transported to a factory area, and is subjected to hot melting, purification and recrystallization to produce anhydrous sodium sulfate (anhydrous sodium sulfate). A plurality of mine pits are left in the original mining area, and sand hills are piled up in the factory area, so that the environment is damaged. As for the general law of salt lake evolution, salt and saltpeter are the symbiotic relationships. Sodium sulfate has the property of having a particularly low solubility at low temperatures. Accordingly, the modern saltpeter industry makes extensive use of saltpeter ponds to freeze saltpeter to extract or remove sodium sulfate from mixed brines.
However, the problem of freezing the saltpeter in the saltpeter pool is that heat exchange between brine and cold air only occurs on a gas-liquid contact surface in winter, total energy exchange is limited, the heat capacity of the brine in the whole pool is large, and the freezing and crystallizing process of sodium sulfate is a heating process, so that the temperature of the brine in the whole pool can be reduced in winter, the total amount of sodium sulfate frozen and separated out in each year is limited, the accumulation of the frozen saltpeter for many years can be used for achieving economic exploitation amount, and a large amount of sandy soil precipitated in other seasons is contained in a frozen saltpeter interlayer formed every year, so that the cost is increased for exploitation and utilization of the frozen saltpeter. In addition, because the temperature of the whole nitre solution can not be reduced to the minimum, the content of sodium sulfate in the nitre solution is still quite high, which is not beneficial to the subsequent utilization of the mother solution, such as the operation of solar salt drying. The operation of evaporating, crystallizing and separating the brine of saltpeter by using temperature change is a mature scheme of the current industry. Through search, the China light International engineering Co., ltd Peng Saijun and the like disclose in the invention patent with the application number CN 201811472718.5: the invention discloses a process for producing salt nitrate by evaporating brine of a salt nitrate system, and provides a device for carrying out evaporation separation operation on salt nitrate brine by taking the brine of the salt nitrate system as a raw material and utilizing different evaporation devices and a process method using the device. However, the invention needs more process steps and corresponding devices, the operation flow needs to consume steam, the larger industrial production energy correspondingly needs larger device structure and larger energy consumption, the unit economic value of the produced main and auxiliary products is not too high, the possibility of large-scale quantitative production is restricted in industrial practical application, and the economic risk of the actual industrial production is improved. Therefore, the mature industrial market puts forward the actual demands for large-scale processing of mass production raw materials, reduction of various related costs, reduction of energy consumption in the process flow by utilizing natural force and more automatic and intelligent completion of industrial quantitative production in the field of salt and sodium sulfate production.

nitrate-containing formations often contain a large amount of symbiotic other salts, especially sodium chloride, and the surface water or well water of a mining area used for leaching and leaching product brine are mixed solutions of sodium sulfate and sodium chloride, so that pure single salt products cannot be produced by direct evaporation crystallization. The process of the invention completely separates the sodium sulfate in the mixed brine in a solid form by freezing the nitrate at low temperature. Because the solubility of sodium chloride is reduced little along with the temperature and can not be frozen and crystallized, the quality of frozen saltpeter can not be influenced, and the freezing temperature of mother liquor is reduced in the process of separating the slope saltpeter crystal, so that the freezing temperature is lower, the content of sodium sulfate in the obtained mother liquor is lower, and the comprehensive utilization value of the mother liquor is higher.
Although the invention is mainly designed for freezing saltpeter, the invention can also be applied to the elution of other substances with similar physicochemical conditions, such as the remediation engineering of polluted soil, and the polluted substances eluted by steam or hot water are directly separated by a slope crystallization device.
