Description

Purification, refining and crystallization method of titanium dioxide byproduct ferrous sulfate
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of crystallization in chemical engineering industry, and particularly relates to a purification, refining and crystallization method of titanium dioxide byproduct ferrous sulfate.
Background
Ferrous sulfate heptahydrate (CAS: 7782-63-0), which is also called copperas, is an important byproduct in the production process of titanium dioxide, and widely exists in the fields of chemical industry, metallurgy and the like. Based on the calculation of about 3 tons of ferrous sulfate per 1 ton of titanium pigment produced, approximately 250 ten thousand tons of ferrous sulfate heptahydrate will be produced each year. In order to improve the resource utilization rate, the ferrous sulfate can also be used for preparing an iron source material of lithium iron phosphate serving as a positive electrode material of the lithium ion battery by a liquid phase method. However, the titanium white byproduct ferrous sulfate has high impurity content and low purity, and the direct use of the titanium white byproduct ferrous sulfate in preparing battery grade ferrous oxalate can greatly influence the performance of the subsequent lithium iron phosphate anode material. Therefore, the by-product ferrous sulfate needs to be purified before comprehensive utilization.
At present, the crystallization method is widely applied to the fields of food, pharmacy, fine chemical industry and the like as an important separation and purification method, but the systematic research on purifying the byproduct ferrous sulfate by the crystallization method is still very little. The crystallization method has the advantages of low cost, clean production, high separation efficiency and the like, and is particularly suitable for purifying ferrous sulfate. Therefore, the battery grade ferrous oxalate is prepared from the titanium white byproduct ferrous sulfate through treatment, so that the problem of serious stockpiling of the byproduct ferrous sulfate is solved, and the development requirement of the battery industry can be met.
At present, various researches are less in continuous research on the ferrous sulfate heptahydrate refining process, more researches focus on the removal rule, removal effect and the like of impurities (such as Ti, mg and Mn), but for industrial amplification experiments, the project goal can be reached only by continuously carrying out the whole process, and the research is conducted on key parameters and process optimization of ferrous sulfate heptahydrate continuous production.
Disclosure of Invention

The technical scheme of the invention is as follows:

Saturated solution), and it can be seen that the required standard, namely, the Mg content is 450ppm (after cleaning), can be achieved.
The prepared ferrous sulfate heptahydrate product has uniform particle size, good inhibition of coalescence, and the average particle size of the product is about 240 microns.
Comparative example 1:
the only difference from example 1 is that the initial concentration of the solution is 2.5mg/ml.
The obtained product has serious agglomeration condition, nonuniform particle size, wide CSD distribution and 1500ppm of Mg content after secondary crystallization.
Comparative example 2:
the only difference from example 1 is that the residence time per stage is 30min.
Too little residence time results in insufficient time for crystal growth, the average particle size of the product particles is smaller, 150 microns, a great amount of nucleation occurs in the excessive supersaturation, the aggregation phenomenon is obvious, and the Mg content after secondary crystallization is 1200ppm.
Comparative example 3:
the only difference from example 1 is that the temperature of the intermediate one of the three-stage crystallizers is 28 ℃.
The obtained product has serious agglomeration condition, nonuniform particle size, wide CSD distribution and 850ppm of Mg content after secondary crystallization. .
Comparative example 4:
the only difference from example 1 is that the amount of seed added is 1/5 of the product.
The supersaturation degree generated by the solution remains after the growth of the crystals, resulting in secondary nucleation of the solution, which leads to coalescence, and the Mg content of the secondary crystallized product is 900ppm.
Comparative example 5:
the only difference from example 1 is that the seed amount added had a particle size of 100 microns.
Too small particle size affects the solubility of the crystals, deviates from the thermodynamics originally measured, and is partially dissolved after the addition of seed crystals, resulting in subsequent supersaturation being consumed after crystal growth and remaining, resulting in secondary nucleation of the solution, resulting in coalescence, the Mg content of the secondary crystallized product being 760ppm
Comparative example 6:
the only difference from example 1 is that the end temperature of the tertiary crystallizer is 10 ℃.
The purity of the product can meet the requirement, but for industrial production, the temperature of 10 ℃ is relatively low, a large amount of steam is consumed for reducing the temperature to such low temperature in the process of scale-up production, and meanwhile, the scaling problem is easy to occur, so that the temperature of the last set of the three-stage crystallizer is set to be more than 20 ℃ in view of heat exchange and economy.
As is apparent from comparison of example 1 and comparative example 1, when the initial concentration of the solution is lower than the limit range of the present invention, since the partition coefficient of the solvent is constant, a certain amount of the solvent cannot handle a larger amount of Mg impurities, so Mg is more present in the product, and thus the amount of feed cannot be increased in order to pursue an excessively high yield.
From a comparison of example 1 and comparative example 2, it is understood that when the residence time of the solution in each stage of the crystallizer is not within the limit of the present invention, the crystal grain size is caused to be small, resulting in supersaturation for nucleation rather than growth or unnecessary residence time to increase the process cost.
As is evident from example 1 and comparative example 3, when the temperature of each stage of the crystallizer is not within the limit of the present invention, the agglomeration of the product is serious, the particle size is not uniform, the CSD distribution is wide, and the impurity content of the product is high.
As is apparent from comparison of example 1 and comparative examples 4 and 5, when the amount of seed crystals added or the particle diameter of seed crystals is out of the limit of the present invention, supersaturation caused by the solution is consumed for crystal growth and remains, resulting in secondary nucleation of the solution, thereby causing coalescence, and thus high impurity content of the product.
As is clear from a comparison of example 1 and comparative example 6, the temperature of 10℃is relatively too low for industrial production, a large amount of steam is consumed for lowering the temperature to such low temperature during the scale-up production, and the problem of scaling is liable to occur, so that the temperature of the last set of the three-stage crystallizer is set to 20℃or more for heat exchange and economic consideration.
The invention discloses and provides a novel technology for purifying, refining and crystallizing titanium dioxide byproduct ferrous sulfate, which can be realized by appropriately changing links such as initial concentration, residence time of each stage of crystallizer, temperature of each crystallizer, stirring rate, rotary steaming percentage, seed crystal adding amount, particle size and the like by referring to the content of the technical proposal. While the method of the present invention has been described in terms of preferred embodiments, it will be apparent to those skilled in the relevant art that variations and combinations of the methods and products described herein can be made to practice the present technology without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. It is expressly noted that all such similar substitutes and modifications apparent to those skilled in the art are deemed to be included within the spirit, scope and content of the invention.
