Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an improved process for obtaining phosphates by extraction of a suspension of a phosphate-containing raw material with carbon dioxide and to a process plant with which this process can be carried out.
  • Raw phosphate is a non-renewable, fossil resource. Estimates of how long these resources can meet our needs are very different. The deposits are limited to a few countries or regions. Most countries are almost completely dependent on imports, which leads to risks in terms of security of supply and susceptibility to price fluctuations. Alternative sources of phosphate have to be found, and the recovery of phosphates from sewage sludge has proven promising in the recent past.
  • DE 10 2009 020 745 itself relates to a process for the recovery of valuable substances, in particular phosphate, from sewage sludge products by extraction of an aqueous, alcoholic or aqueous-alcoholic suspension of the sewage sludge product with gaseous or supercritical carbon dioxide. This process can be roughly divided into three process steps: extraction with carbon dioxide, solid / liquid separation and phosphate precipitation.
  • sewage sludge is contacted with gaseous carbon dioxide at elevated pressure.
  • the pH is ideally between about pH 4 and pH 6, since the phosphates bound to the sewage sludge matrix can best dissolve in this area.
  • the sludge particles are separated from the liquid phase, and the carbon dioxide exits the sludge water freed of sewage sludge particles under normal pressure is recovered and returned to the process.
  • the sludge water freed from the sewage sludge particles and the carbon dioxide is finally fed to the third process step, the phosphate precipitation. In this case, the dissolved phosphates are precipitated, so that they can then be supplied for further use.
  • the object of the present invention was to provide an improved process for the carbon dioxide extraction of phosphates from raw materials, in which the expected or even higher yields are achieved.
  • This object is achieved by a process for obtaining phosphate from a raw material by extraction with carbon dioxide, in which one
  • step (D) from the liquid obtained in step c) precipitated therein phosphates and separated from the liquid, characterized in that the steps (a) and (b) are carried out in a continuously operated reactor until the pH of the suspension ⁇ 6.9.
  • raw materials from which phosphates can be obtained in the sense of the present invention, refers here to those which extractable phosphorus or extractable phosphorus. phate included.
  • this includes sewage sludge, sewage sludge ash, sewage sludge, sewage sludge, digestate, residues from the fermentation of biomass, compost, farmyard manure, liquid manure, animal fat, animal meal, meat bone meal, biowaste, garden waste, Bonderschlämme, phosphate-containing technical waste solutions, phosphate-containing wastewater, by-products of food production including casein, cheese dust, meat and fish wastes and presscakes remaining in the production of edible oil.
  • phosphate or "phosphates” is understood to mean all salts and esters of orthophosphoric acid (H3PO4) and salts and esters of orthophosphoric acid condensates (for example pyrophosphates, triphosphates, polyphosphates and metaphosphates).
  • H3PO4 orthophosphoric acid
  • salts and esters of orthophosphoric acid condensates for example pyrophosphates, triphosphates, polyphosphates and metaphosphates.
  • the term "continuously operated” is to be understood as follows: In continuous operation, the reactor is continuously filled with new starting materials at one point, and elsewhere the reaction mass is continuously withdrawn with the products formed from the reactants In contrast, in batch operation, a reactor is charged once with the reactants, and after completion of the reaction, the reaction mass is removed once with the resulting products and the remaining reactants.
  • the inventively proposed implementation of the method for obtaining phosphate from a raw material by extraction with carbon dioxide in a continuously operated reactor offers the advantage that, unlike the method described in DE 10 2009 020 745 A1 in a batch stirred tank much better mixing and Thus, a more homogeneous adjustment of the pH required for the carbon dioxide extraction is achieved. This ultimately leads to the fact that a significantly higher yield can be achieved with the continuously operated reactor of the invention than with the discontinuously operated stirred tank known from the prior art (in particular DE 10 2009 020 745 A1).
  • a significant advantage that arises in the execution of the extraction process according to the present invention is a more homogeneous lowering of the pH, which is still at about pH 7 in the untreated starting suspension. Particularly advantageous is the better mobilization of phosphate, which can be observed from a pH of ⁇ 6.9. If the pH is in the suspension at s 6.9, relatively good phosphate yields are already achieved. Even more preferred is a pH in the suspension of ⁇ 6.5. Particularly preferred is a pH in the range of 5.0 to 6.0.
  • the aforementioned advantage is achieved, in particular, by carrying out steps (a) and (b) of the process according to the invention in a continuously operated reactor. The use of a tube reactor has proven particularly suitable in this respect.
  • tube reactor in the context of the present invention refers to a tubular reactor operating according to the "plug-flow" principle, in which the reaction mass flows from one end (proximal end) of the tube to raw material suspension in the reactor which has not yet been treated with carbon dioxide At the other end (distal end) of the tube, at which carbon dioxide-treated raw material suspension is removed from the reactor, is transported, where the material conversions take place along the transport path through the reactor tube Reactor space whose length is much larger than its diameter.
