Abstract
The proposed invention uses a classical chemical equation where carbon dioxide CO2 is reacted with quick lime Ca(OH)2 to produce soda carb NaHCCh and concentrating it to 6% using advanced membrane and resin technology. The invention requires three chemicals CO2, Ca(OH)2, and sodium chloride NaCl to produce NaHCθ3. The output of many industrial processes lacks waste heat and in many instances CO2 and the present invention combines a solid waste processing unit to the above processes which allows the production of solid products or high % liquors. Availability of waste heat sources can lead to high efficiency in NaHCθ3, Na2COj, and NaOH production. The process is not chloro-alkali electrochemical or Solvay column ammonia processing technique. Advanced membrane uses technologies of reverse osmosis and nanofiltration systems while resin technology uses ion exchange systems. Therefore, we conveniently call it the solid waste-quicklime membrane SWQM process.
Technical field and Background information
Using brine water and advanced membrane and resin technology in solid waste processing and the production of soda carb NaHCO3.
The present invention uses a classical equation where CO2 is reacted with quicklime Ca(OH)2 to produce clear solution of calcium bicarbonate Ca(HCO3)2 such that:
Ca(OH)2 + 2CO2 → Ca(HCO3)2
Calcium bicarbonate (500 to 1000 ppm) is then processed by a cation exchange system to produce soda carb (500 to 1000 ppm) such that:
Ca(HCO3)2 + 2R-Na+ → 2NaHCO3 + R-Ca++
Presence of brine water with a salinity of 8 to 12 % is crucial because it is used to regenerate the cation exchanger such that:
R-Ca++ + 2NaCl → 2R-Na+ + CaC12
Soda carb liquor produced is of low percentage ie 0.05 to 0.1% and need to be concentrated to ~6%. The concentration process is performed using reverse osmosis system where the soda carb liquor is taken through multiple passes until the final concentrate output is around 6%. Industrially a concentration of 6% is low to extract the solid economically a major setback for membrane technology. The difficulty in soing above 6% with membrane technology is the high pressure that deteriorates the membrane. Even if recompression evaporation is used around IMW is required to produce one ton of solid product. In the present invention the most obvious heat source is the heat emitted by solid waste incineration.
Description of how the invention addresses a technical problem
Solid waste, brine water waste, and CO2 waste are major problems faced by human communities worldwide. The proposed invention attempts to bring these three waste problems in one industrial process to bring about a green solution while making a financial benefit The green solution is fulfilled by large elimination of the various wastes stated above. The financial benefit comes from selling the soda commodity chemicals as byproduct of the combined processes. In a sense the SWQM process is an alternative to the classical Solvay process that is used worldwide to produce soda carb NaHCO3 and soda ash Na2CO3. The Solvay process uses poisonous ammonia gas with a complex column system to extract the said products. In the Solvay process mined calcium carbonate is heated in a kiln at 12000C for conversion into lime stone CaO and CO2. From lime stone CaO quicklime Ca(OH)2 is produced while CO2 is used in the production of soda carb NaHCO3. The SWQM process is very different in that it does not use ammonia gas and substitutes the quicklime RONFIE system [separate patent] instead of the complex column system. In a Solvay process CO2 has to be pure and released from CaCO3 kilns in order to react it with ammonia gas and brine solution under precise conditions of the Solvay column. The SWQM process requires a sparging reactor to bubble flue gas, which contain CO2, from a nearby industry or solid waste plant. It does not mean that CaCO3 kilns cannot be used if the heat from incinerators can be harnessed to convert CaCO3 to CaO. Magnitude of heat released from incinerators depends on the quantity of carbon based material CBM (i.e. paper, cardboard, wood, plastics, rubber,.... etc.) present at a dump site. The greater is the availability of CBM more chemical or physical processes can be performed to make SWQM a self contained process.
Detailed description of your invention
A typical schematic for a solid waste steam production unit is shown below:
Figure imgf000003_0001
Figure-1 Schematic of a solid waste incinerator.
Heat from solid waste incineration can do the following:
1-Heat can boil sea water to produce brine water ranging from 6 to 10% and steam. The same brine water can be used in soda 6% solution generation while the steam is used for concentration or drying. From this point, the present invention can be dedicated to solid waste processing only where the products obtained are potable water and commodity soda chemicals.
2-Heat can boil natural water for steam generation and the steam is used for concentration or drying. Note: One ton of steam at -1500C boils off 10 ton of water.
As indicated in point (1) above large scale solid waste incineration can be harnessed to generate CO2, brine water, and heat for the SWQM process.
Figure imgf000004_0001
Figure-2 Schematic of Sodium bicarbonate production unit using a solid waste, sea water, and quicklime.
The process essentially relies on advanced membrane technology systems to produce sodium bicarbonate NaHCO3. Therefore, it is very different from classical Solvay process that uses ammonia gas to do the conversion. The schematic shown below depicts the various stages in the process:
Reactor design: Carbon dioxide gas is sparged through quick limewater Ca(OH)2 in a reactor to form calcium hydrogen carbonate Ca(HCO3)2 liquor. The latter is then subjected to further filtration to remove impurity particulates then passed to a complex membrane system.
Complex membrane system: The low % liquor gets converted and concentrated to 7% sodium hydrogen carbonate liquor. Complex membrane system operate as follows:
1-An ion exchange(IE)/ reverse osmosis (RO) system: where ion exchange unit transforms the Ca(HCOs)2 liquor to NaHC03 liquor. Multiple RO cartridges are cascaded to concentrate die sodium hydrogen carbonate liquor from ~0.1% to ~ 7%. An Excel worksheet is provided that give detailed mass balance analysis of the entire process, Refer to pages 8 and 9.
2-A reverse osmosis (RO) unit where three RO cartridges are cascaded to concentrate the calcium hydrogen carbonate liquor from -0.25% to ~ 8%. The RO unit is followed by a reactor mixer where ~8% Ca(HCO3)2 is mixed with 8 to 10% NaCl to initiate the precipitation of NaHCO3 where part of the solution is boiled to concentrate the liquor. An Excel worksheet is provided that give detailed mass balance analysis of the entire process, Refer to pages 8 and 9.
Waste heat that is provided by the solid waste processing unit can convert water into steam of 120 to 150 0C having a boiler above the solid waste incinerator. The steam can be used to convert the 7% sodium hydrogen carbonate liquor to dry sodium hydrogen carbonate by evaporating half the volume. If waste heat is above 2200C then the 7% sodium hydrogen carbonate liquor can be dried and converted to soda ash Na2CO3.
Ion exchangers mat are used in this process are regenerated from either processed seawater or produced brine water. In the above schematic, if brine water concentration C is >10% salinity men the complex membrane and heat exchanger system is not needed. If brine water concentration 6% < C < 9% salinity then the complex membrane is not needed and the heat exchanger system can be used to raise its concentration to 10% or if it is cheaper NaCl is added to bring C up to 10%. If only seawater is available then the complex membrane and heat exchanger system is used to isolate and increase concentration from 3.5% to 10% saline NaCl.
One important aspect about this process is the circulation of RO permeate which save on pure water production and chemicals supply. There are waste products such as calcium chloride and magnesium chloride that can be diluted with the pure water produced from the complex membrane and heat exchanger system and returned back to the sea without harming the marine environment. The net production of potable water is difficult to estimate at this stage and depends on the government tolerance level of Ca++, Mg++ salts after dilution.
Examples of intended use and other methods of industrial use
The SWQM process is most convenient for industries that emit brine water (i.e. salinity between 6 to 16%) and lack any waste heat and CO2 sources. However, it can also work on industries that emit a limited amount of CO2 where the combined amounts from an industrial plant and the solid waste plant can be harnessed in CO2 sequestration and soda chemical production. A solid waste process can operate on a large scale where solid waste incineration can be harnessed to generate CO2, brine water, and heat for the SWQM process.
