Description

Ultraviolet irradiation device and method for removing urea in solution
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of water treatment, and particularly relates to an ultraviolet irradiation device and method for removing urea in water.
Background
At present, countries in the world face severe water resource shortage, water environment pollution and other problems, and the utilization of reclaimed water is an important way for solving the water resource problem.
The semiconductor manufacturing industry is a high water consumption industry, and has large demand on ultrapure water and high water quality requirement. The amount of fresh water resources required by the station for power accumulation is reported to reach 160 hundred million meters per year 3 The amount of water resources required for producing ultrapure water is very large. With the attention on the independent production of the chips and the great investment, the chip manufacturing industry has huge demand on water resources in the future, and the traditional water resources are difficult to meet the demand of the ultra-pure water which is rapidly increased. Semiconductor manufacturing enterprises are gradually exploring to use urban reclaimed water for preparing electronic-grade ultrapure water, and under the condition of facing severe water problems such as water resource shortage, water environment pollution and the like, the application of non-traditional water sources (urban reclaimed water, polluted surface water and the like) in the preparation of the electronic-grade ultrapure water is an important support for high-quality development of the electronic industry.
The concentration of the urea in the regenerated water is 2-5 times higher than that of the urea in the tap water after reverse osmosis treatment, and research results obtained by using an ultrapure water pilot system show that the existing ultrapure water production process can not completely remove the urea, about 20% of the urea in the inlet water passes through the whole ultrapure water production process and contributes about 25% of total organic carbon in the ultrapure water. The method can effectively remove urea, and becomes a key problem of applying the reclaimed water to the electronic grade ultrapure water production.
Existing urea removal technologies include biodegradation, physical adsorption, chemical oxidation, and the like. The biodegradation technology relying on microbial activity is not suitable for removing low-concentration organic matters, the physical adsorption has poor adsorption effect on hydrophilic and non-electrical urea, particularly low-concentration urea, and new problems can be caused by replacement of an adsorbent, desorption of pollutants or dissolution of impurities.

However, this method has the disadvantages of low efficiency, limitation of the concentration of the urea in the feed water and complicated process, and is not suitable for removing low concentration urea.

<Second aspect of the invention>
A second aspect of the invention provides a method of removing urea from a solution comprising the steps of:
an acidification step, namely, carrying out acidification treatment on the urea solution by using an acidification reagent to obtain an acidification product;
a mixing step, mixing an oxidizing reagent and an acidification product to obtain a mixed product;
an irradiation step, namely irradiating the mixed product by using an ultraviolet irradiation device to enable urea to generate chemical reaction to obtain a reaction product; wherein,
the ultraviolet irradiation apparatus is the ultraviolet irradiation apparatus according to the first aspect of the present invention.
Acidification step
According to the invention, an acidification reagent is used for carrying out acidification treatment on the urea solution to obtain an acidified product. The acidification process has two functions, namely, the chlorine molecules and the urea have better reaction effect in order to form more chlorine molecules by the chlorine-containing oxidizing reagent subsequently, and the urea is protonated, so that the urea can react with free radicals generated in the irradiation process more easily.
In some specific embodiments, after the acidification treatment, the pH of the acidified product is between 2 and 3.5, for example: 2.2, 2.5, 2.8, 3, 3.2, etc. Furthermore, a water quality analyzer can be adopted to carry out real-time pH monitoring in the acidification treatment process, so that the pH value is controlled. Specifically, the reaction solution may be mixed uniformly into a homogeneous system by continuously stirring with a magnetic stirrer. And continuously adding an acidifying agent until the real-time pH value monitoring result shows that the reaction solution can stop when the pH value is stabilized at 2-3.5, so as to obtain an acidified product.
The acidifying agent is not particularly limited in the present invention, and may be one commonly used in the art. Specifically, the acidifying agent comprises an inorganic acid or an organic acid; preferably, the inorganic acid comprises one or a combination of more than two of sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid and phosphoric acid, and the organic acid comprises one or a combination of more than two of oxalic acid, acetic acid, formic acid and succinic acid. Preferably, the present invention preferably uses an inorganic acid as the acidifying agent, considering that an organic acid may generate an unnecessary product under photoreaction and that an organic acid is more costly than an inorganic acid.
Mixing step
The invention mixes the oxidizing reagent and the acidification product to obtain the mixed product. In the mixing process, the oxidation reagent and the urea can generate substitution reaction to generate a small amount of substituted urea products, and the urea and the free radicals are in full contact reaction in the irradiation process after being fully mixed. When using a chloroxidizing agent, the chloroxidizing agent reacts with the urea to produce a small amount of a chlorine-substituted urea product that can be effectively removed under ultraviolet conditions.
In some specific embodiments, the oxidizing agent used in the present invention is preferably a chlorine-containing oxidizing agent, which is the most widely used agent in the field of disinfection, bleaching, etc., and can generate a large amount of oxidizing radicals under ultraviolet irradiation, so that the oxidizing agent has a good reaction effect, and the chlorine-containing oxidizing agent and urea undergo a substitution reaction to generate a chlorine-substituted urea product.
The amount of the chlorine-containing oxidizing agent to be used is not particularly limited in the present invention, and may be added as needed. Preferably, in the chlorine-containing oxidizing agent, the ratio of the mass concentration of the active chlorine to the mass concentration of urea is 2.5 or more, preferably 5 or more, in terms of active chlorine, for example: 3. 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, 7, 7.5, 8, 8.5,9. 9.5, 10, 11, etc., and the ratio of the mass concentration to the mass concentration of urea is usually preferably 7 to 10. For example: for urea solution with concentration of 1mg/L, the active chlorine content in sodium hypochlorite solution added after acidification is preferably 5mg-Cl 2 More than/L. When the ratio of the mass concentration of the active chlorine to the mass concentration of urea is 2.5 or more, particularly 5 or more, it is more advantageous to remove urea.
Further, in the mixing step, the reaction solution needs to be rapidly mixed by a magnetic stirring meter under dark and normal temperature conditions to simulate the actual application scenario and reduce the loss of the oxidizing reagent under light.
The chlorine-containing oxidizing agent is not particularly limited in the present invention, and may be one commonly used in the art. For example: hypochlorite, chlorite, chlorate, and the like. Specifically, the chlorine-containing oxidizing agent may be one or a combination of two or more of sodium hypochlorite, potassium hypochlorite, magnesium hypochlorite, sodium chlorite, potassium chlorite, magnesium chlorite, sodium chlorate, potassium chlorate, magnesium chlorate, and the like.
Irradiation step
The invention uses the ultraviolet irradiation device to perform irradiation treatment on the mixed product, so that urea generates chemical reaction to obtain a reaction product; wherein the ultraviolet irradiation apparatus is the ultraviolet irradiation apparatus according to the first aspect of the present invention.
The ultraviolet rays include at least a radiation wave having a wavelength of 185nm and a radiation wave having a wavelength of 254 nm. Before use, air is removed by introducing nitrogen gas through the gas-guide tube, so as to reduce the loss of 185nm ultraviolet rays caused by the absorption of oxygen in the air. After the air is exhausted, the power supply is turned on, the ultraviolet light source 1 is turned on, and ultraviolet irradiation can be carried out when the power of the light source is stable. During the irradiation, the ultraviolet rays emitted by the ultraviolet light source 1 generate parallel light in the light guide device 5, and the parallel light can pass through the light guide device 5 and act on the urea-containing solution in the reaction vessel 9 to remove urea.
