Description

Process for the production of gypsum from sulphuric acid containing waste streams
This invention relates to the production of gypsum from waste streams containing sulphuric acid, in particular a process for the production of high purity gypsum from industrial waste streams containing sulphuric acid.
The production of gypsum from acidic waste streams containing sulphuric acid is normally carried out using a one or two step process, the key difference between the two processes being the pH at which the precipitation of the gypsum occurs. In the one step process, the pH of the acid stream is raised, typically to the range of 4 to 6, and the gypsum recovered by a range of separation and/or filtration processes. Resultant gypsum has a low gypsum content, typically less than 90%, and not uncommonly less than 80% . The gypsum produced also has a small crystal size. Both of these factors make it unsuitable for use in the manufacture of plaster or other higher value products. The gypsum from this process is commonly used for soil rehabilitation or as a setting control agent for cement.
In the two step process gypsum is recovered from the sulphuric acid waste stream via precipitation at two different pH levels. Typically the gypsum is initially recovered by the addition of lime to the acid stream, increasing the pH to the range 2 to 2.4. The precipitated gypsum is generally of high purity, typically greater than 90% , and has an acceptable particle size distribution for use in manufacturing processes. This method is presently being used to recover gypsum from waste acid streams generated during the production of titanium oxide. The gypsum produced is of sufficient purity to be useful in the production of plasterboard.
After the first precipitation step, the pH is again raised by the addition of lime to bring the stream to a pH of about 6. The gypsum precipitated at this pH is of low purity, containing significant amounts of iron and other impurities which are also present in the acid stream. The product of this second precipitation step is commonly referred to as "red gypsum" and is mainly used for soil rehabilitation or as a cement additive. It is an object of the present .invention to overcome or alleviate one or more of the disadvantages of the prior art processes, and to provide improved recovery of high purity gypsum from sulfuric acid containing waste streams.
Accordingly the invention provides a process for the production of gypsum from a waste stream containing sulphuric acid including:
(A) adding calcium containing basic material to said waste stream to bring pH within the range of from about 2.0 to 2.7 to precipitate gypsum, and recovering the precipitated gypsum from the waste stream, and
(B) adding basic material to the waste stream to bring pH within the range of from about 3.0 to 3.4 to precipitate impurities, and removing the precipitated impurities from the waste stream, and
(C) adding calcium containing basic material to said waste stream to bring pH within the range of from about 4 to 6 to precipitate gypsum, and recovering the precipitated gypsum from the waste stream.
The process according to the invention allows the recovery of highly pure gypsum at two stages by including an intermediate precipitation step in which impurities are removed. Such impurities include Fe and Al. The gypsum recovered at both stages may also have an acceptable particle size to be useful in various manufacturing processes, such as the manufacture of plasterboard and plaster-based products, or as an additive for cement.
As used herein, the term "basic material" refers to any alkaline material capable of neutralizing sulphuric acid. Examples of suitable basic materials include alkali metal hydroxides, such as NaOH and KOH, alkaline earth metal hydroxides such as Mg(OH)2 and Ca(OH)2, basic oxides such as Na2O, MgO and CaO, and carbonates and hydrogen carbonates, such as Na2CO3, NaHCO3 and CaCO3. As used herein the term "calcium containing basic material" refers to a basic material as defined above which includes calcium atoms or cations. Examples of suitable calcium containing base materials include Ca(OH)2, CaCO3, CaO, and lime, including slaked lime and quicklime. Preferably the calcium containing basic material is Ca(OH)2 or lime.
As used herein the term "waste stream containing sulphuric acid" refers to a waste stream resulting from any industrial process which uses or produces sulphuric acid, such that excess or waste sulphuric acid is contained in the waste stream. Such industrial processes include the production of titanium dioxide, activated bentonite clay, tapioca starch, citric, lactic and tartaric acids and the production of kevlar.
As used herein the terms "high purity" and "highly pure" as used in relation to recovered gypsum means having a purity of greater than 85% .
In step A of the process it is preferred that the pH of the waste acid stream is brought within the range of 2 to 2.4. To maximise the yield while maintaining high purity it is preferred that the pH is brought to about 2.4.
To ensure maximum recovery of pure gypsum it is preferred that the residence time of the calcium containing basic material in the waste acid stream is between 30 minutes and 2 hours. It is also possible to 'seed' the precipitation of the gypsum by adding gypsum to the waste acid stream. Seeding in this way may increase the weight of precipitation of the gypsum or alter the crystal size, or both.
In order to provide for better crystal growth and to increase the particle size of the gypsum it is preferred that the basic material and/or calcium containing basic material is highly dispersed. This may be achieved by any suitable means including grinding or dissolution. The gypsum may be recovered from the waste acid stream using methods known to the art, such as by filtration, clarification or centπtugation
In step B the pH of the waste acid stream is brought to within the range of trom about 3 0 to 3 4, preferably about 3 0 A higher pH can be chosen, however this will decrease the total yield of gypsum In some situations it may be beneficial to use a higher pH to remove unwanted contaminants In this regard the 'red gypsum' produced from the sulphuric acid waste stream of the titanium dioxide process otten contains significant amounts of radioactive materials In order to remove these radioactive impurities the pH of the waste stream in step B may need to be higher than 3 4 In some other circumstances it may also be beneficial to use a higher pH to remove unwanted contaminants, although the higher the pH the lower the yield of gypsum in step C
The impurities precipitated in step B may be removed using any suitable means known to the art. In a preferred method a flocculant is used The flocculant may cationic, anionic or non- lonic Examples of suitable flocculants include acrylamide polymers, polyaminoacrylate polymers and sulphonated polystyrene Preferably the flocculant is anionic A preferred anionic flocculant is Nalco Optimer® 9960 from Nalco Chemical Company. Other methods for removing the impurities, such as centrifuge separation, are also possible. The impurities removed from the acid waste stream may be useful as landfill. If a calcium containing basic material is used in step B then the product will contain gypsum as well as other impurities Vigorous stirring and/or deration may also be used to promote oxidation of Fe and other impurities, thereby assisting removal of these impurities
In step C the pH of the acid waste stream is brought within the range of from about 4 to 6, preferably about 6 To ensure maximum yield a residence time of between about two and four hours may be required As with step A, "seeding" of the precipitation with gypsum can be used to increase the yield and/or modify the crystal size produced As with the product of step N the gypsum recovered in step C is of a high purity and has a suitable particle size distribution for manufacturing processes The process of the present invention allows the production of gypsum from waste sulphuric acid streams which is of high purity and acceptable particle size for use in the manufacturing processes In this regard the gypsum recovered from steps A and C of the process may have the purity of greater than 85%, preferably greater than 90%, and most preferably greater than 92% The highly pure gypsum produced according to the present invention may also have an acceptable particle size making it suitable for use in manufacturing processes In this regard the gypsum particles may an average size of between 20 and 120 microns, preferably above 40 and 120 microns and most preferably above 60 and 120 microns
