Description

Device and method for recycling magnesium sulfate solution and reacting with lime
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of metallurgical chemical industry, and relates to a device and a method for recycling magnesium sulfate solution and reacting with lime.
Background
In the nonferrous metallurgy industry, in particular to a sulfuric acid roasting process for treating Baotou mixed rare earth minerals by a sulfuric acid roasting method, magnesium oxide is needed to neutralize excessive sulfuric acid in roasting ore leaching liquid, and the generated magnesium sulfate and rare earth solution enter an extraction separation process together, so that finally produced sulfuric acid rare earth extraction separation wastewater contains more magnesium sulfate. The magnesium sulfate wastewater is generally precipitated into mixed slag of magnesium hydroxide and calcium sulfate by lime, and the solution after press filtration is reused for leaching the sulfuric acid roasting ore, and the mixed slag is treated as waste slag. The process only carries out the cyclic utilization of water, and calcium and magnesium completely enter mixed waste residues, so that great waste and environmental pollution are caused.
The calcium sulfate-magnesium hydroxide mixed slag can be recycled for neutralizing the sulfuric acid roasting ore leaching liquid in theory, but if the calcium sulfate enters the acid leaching slag, the acid leaching slag amount is increased, and the treatment is difficult. In addition, because of the high content of magnesium hydroxide, the calcium sulfate-magnesium hydroxide slag is difficult to apply to the fields of cement, building materials and the like.
Calcium sulfate has a high tendency to supersaturate, which characteristic makes it prone to exist in solution, is not prone to spontaneous nucleation, and can grow into larger particles in the presence of seed crystals; magnesium hydroxide tends to precipitate finer particles. Thus, in the presence of more calcium sulfate seeds, the crystallization of the supersaturated solution of calcium sulfate can be promoted, and the two precipitates can be subjected to sedimentation or sieving separation by utilizing the difference in particle size properties of calcium sulfate and magnesium hydroxide.
Chinese patent application 201210562657.8 discloses a method for preparing magnesium hydroxide from magnesium sulfate solution, in the presence of calcium sulfate seed crystal, lime milk is added into the magnesium sulfate solution to make the generated calcium sulfate form crystal grains, and after the generated calcium sulfate and magnesium hydroxide form larger grain size difference, the purpose of separating calcium and magnesium is achieved by screening through a rotary screen.
Chinese patent application 201610318207.2 discloses a method for treating magnesium sulfate and magnesium sulfite wastewater by a lime method, which comprises the technical steps of sedimentation impurity removal, aeration oxidation, reaction crystallization separation, overflow liquid filtration, washing and drying, kettle bottom slurry washing and separation, and filtration mother liquor recycling. The purified and oxidized wastewater and lime slurry are respectively and continuously added into a reaction crystallizer, sulfate ions and calcium ions are combined to form calcium sulfate dihydrate crystals with larger particle size by controlling reaction crystallization conditions and are settled to the bottom of the reaction crystallizer, magnesium ions and hydroxide ions are combined to form magnesium hydroxide with smaller particle size, and the magnesium hydroxide continuously overflows from an overflow port of the reaction crystallizer.
The reaction process of lime and magnesium sulfate can be divided into two steps: the first step is that lime is dissolved in water to form calcium hydroxide solution; the second step is that calcium hydroxide solution and magnesium sulfate solution are respectively formed into calcium sulfate dihydrate and magnesium hydroxide in the presence of calcium sulfate seed crystal.
The solution reaction can also be regarded as that calcium hydroxide is dissolved and ionized into calcium ions and hydroxide radicals, the calcium ions react with sulfate radicals to generate calcium sulfate precipitates, and magnesium ions react with the hydroxide radicals to generate magnesium hydroxide precipitates.
In the prior art, lime or lime milk, magnesium sulfate and calcium sulfate seed crystal are directly added into the same reactor, and besides the reaction carried out by a solution phase, the possibility that calcium hydroxide solid is directly contacted with the magnesium sulfate solution and reacts on the surface of the solid exists under the condition, and the magnesium hydroxide and the calcium sulfate are easily adsorbed on the surface of the calcium hydroxide to block the continuous reaction, so that the calcium content in the product magnesium hydroxide and the magnesium content in the calcium sulfate are increased, and the subsequent application is influenced.
In the treatment process of rare earth sulfate, a small amount of rare earth chloride solution is used for washing an organic phase during extraction and separation, so that chloride ions with a certain concentration exist in a circulating solution. In the presence of chloride ions, the solution reaction can still be regarded as that calcium hydroxide is dissolved and ionized into calcium ions and hydroxide radicals, the calcium ions react with sulfate radicals to generate calcium sulfate, and the magnesium ions react with the hydroxide radicals to generate magnesium hydroxide.
Chinese patent application 201810342090.0 discloses a device and a method for recycling magnesium sulfate wastewater, wherein quicklime is added into the magnesium sulfate wastewater, an internal circulation system based on calcium ion reflux is established to achieve the effect of classifying and precipitating precipitates, and magnesium sulfate is classified and precipitated in the form of calcium sulfate and magnesium hydroxide, so that the purpose of recycling is achieved. The process adds solution such as calcium chloride to form soluble calcium solution to precipitate sulfate radical to generate magnesium chloride solution, and then uses lime to precipitate the magnesium chloride solution to generate magnesium hydroxide. The process adopts liquid/liquid reaction in the process of precipitating calcium sulfate, so that the quality of a calcium sulfate product can be ensured, but the possibility of direct solid-liquid reaction still exists in the reaction process of lime and magnesium. In addition, the process comprises a first mixing reactor, a first sedimentation tank, a first centrifugal machine, a second mixing reactor, a second sedimentation tank, a second centrifugal machine, an adjusting tank and the like, so that the solid-liquid separation amount of the internal circulation of the calcium ion reflux is large, and a certain operation difficulty exists.
Disclosure of Invention
The primary purpose of the invention is to provide a device for recycling magnesium sulfate solution and reacting lime, which can be used for inhibiting solid-liquid direct reaction in the magnesium sulfate-lime reaction process by controlling operation conditions, thereby improving the reaction participation rate of magnesium sulfate, improving the respective yields of magnesium hydroxide and calcium sulfate, and reducing the impurity component content in each product.
To achieve the object, in a basic embodiment, the invention provides a device for recycling magnesium sulfate solution and reacting with lime, the device comprises a first mixing chamber, a second mixing chamber, a sedimentation chamber, a first stirrer, a second stirrer, a movable partition plate of the mixing chamber, an adjustable communication port of the mixing chamber, a movable partition plate of the sedimentation chamber, an adjustable communication port of the sedimentation chamber and a slurry outlet,
The first mixing chamber and the second mixing chamber are separated by the movable partition board of the mixing chamber with adjustable opening, so that an adjustable communication opening of the mixing chamber with adjustable opening and closing is formed between the first mixing chamber and the second mixing chamber;
The first mixing chamber and the sedimentation chamber are separated by the sedimentation chamber movable partition plate with adjustable opening, so that an adjustable communication opening of the sedimentation chamber with adjustable opening and closing is formed between the first mixing chamber and the sedimentation chamber;
the first stirrer is arranged in the first mixing chamber and is used for stirring and mixing the slurry in the first mixing chamber;
the second stirrer is arranged in the second mixing chamber and is used for stirring and mixing the slurry in the second mixing chamber;
the slurry outlet is arranged at the top of the settling chamber, and the slurry in the settling chamber overflows from the settling chamber after exceeding the slurry outlet.
The related principle of the invention is as follows:
The invention designs a reaction device of lime-magnesium sulfate solution, which is divided into two mixing chambers and a settling chamber, wherein an adjustable communication hole of the two mixing chambers is formed between the mixing chambers by a movable plugboard, and an adjustable communication hole between the mixing chambers is formed between the settling chamber and the first mixing chamber by the movable plugboard.
A magnesium sulfate solution was added to the first mixing chamber. And adding the Mg 2+ solution above the first mixing chamber, stirring and mixing with the high-pH Ca 2+ -containing solution, reducing the pH, and gradually reducing the concentration of Mg 2+ from top to bottom. The pH value in the first mixing chamber is lower than that in the second mixing chamber but higher than that of Mg 2+ precipitate, and the main reaction in the mixing chamber is magnesium hydroxide precipitate, and the supersaturated solution of calcium sulfate is crystallized under the action of seed crystal. The first mixing chamber solution in the vicinity of the communication hole of the lower partition plate in the first mixing chamber is in a low Mg 2+ state, and this solution and a small amount of solid slurry enter the second mixing chamber through the communication hole, and the slurry in the second mixing chamber can also enter the first mixing chamber through the communication hole.
Lime powder or lime slurry is added above the second mixing chamber, the pH value of the solution is higher, the magnesium ion content in the solution is lower, the probability of the added calcium hydroxide solid directly reacting with magnesium ions can be reduced, and the main process is that calcium hydroxide is dissolved in the solution to ionize to form calcium ions. The mixing is that the proportion of solid lime is gradually reduced from top to bottom, the vicinity of the communicating hole of the lower partition board in the second mixing chamber is in a solution state mainly containing Ca 2+ ions, and the Ca 2+ solution with high pH and a small amount of solid slurry enter the first mixing chamber through the communicating hole to precipitate Mg 2+.
The calcium in the slurry entering the first mixing chamber from the second mixing chamber mainly exists in an ionic state, and at the moment, the concentration of Ca 2+ can exceed the theoretical calculation value of the saturated solubility due to the fact that the calcium sulfate has a large supersaturation degree and impurity anions exist, so that the circulation of water and the dissolution of newly added lime solids are realized. The calcium solution with high outflow alkalinity of the second mixing chamber reacts with the magnesium sulfate solution in the first mixing chamber to generate calcium sulfate precipitate and magnesium hydroxide precipitate.
The first mixing chamber is connected with the sedimentation chamber through an adjustable communication hole. In the sedimentation chamber, the rising speed of calcium sulfate crystals with higher sedimentation speed is slower, and part of calcium sulfate crystals return to the mixing chamber, so that the purpose of calcium sulfate seed crystal circulation is realized; and most of the magnesium hydroxide with slower sedimentation velocity overflows out of the reaction device and enters the subsequent sedimentation separation treatment. The size of the adjustable communication hole between the first mixing chamber and the sedimentation chamber can be adjusted, and the stirring intensity transferred from the first mixing chamber to the sedimentation chamber can be simultaneously adjusted, so that the proportion of calcium sulfate flowing back to the overflow device can be adjusted.
In summary, in the first mixing chamber, the main reaction occurs in which calcium ions and sulfate radicals in the solution form a crystalline precipitate of hydrated calcium sulfate under the action of calcium sulfate seeds:
Ca2++SO4 2-+nH2O=CaSO4(H2O)n (1)
magnesium ions form magnesium hydroxide precipitates with hydroxide in solution:
Mg2++2OH-=Mg(OH)2 (2)
In the second mixing chamber, the main reaction is that calcium hydroxide is dissolved in the solution and ionized into calcium ions and hydroxide ions:
Ca(OH)2=Ca2++2OH- (3)
The two mixing chambers are connected by an adjustable communication orifice, and the mixed slurry has a certain rate of exchange. Thus, in the first mixing chamber, there is still a small amount of reaction (3) to further dissolve the calcium hydroxide which is not completely dissolved in the second mixing chamber. In the second mixing chamber, there is also reaction (2) with a small amount of reaction (1), the magnesium ions and sulfate ions which are not fully reacted in the first mixing chamber, reaction (3) still being present. The main reaction of the second mixing chamber is lime solid dissolution, but after the equilibrium steady state is reached, the calcium sulfate seed crystal gradually increases, so that the amount of calcium sulfate crystals generated by the second mixing chamber also gradually increases.

A second object of the present invention is to provide a method for performing a reaction of magnesium sulfate with lime using the aforementioned apparatus, so that the solid-liquid direct reaction during the magnesium sulfate-lime reaction can be suppressed by controlling the operation conditions, thereby improving the reaction participation rate of magnesium sulfate, improving the respective yields of magnesium hydroxide and calcium sulfate, and reducing the impurity component content in each.
