Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of two-stage decomposition in alumina production, and particularly relates to a fine seed slurry concentration device and method.
Background
With the increasing awareness of environmental protection and the demand of energy conservation, the sand-shaped alumina with a plurality of advantages gradually replaces powdery alumina and intermediate alumina and becomes the preferred raw material of an electrolytic aluminum plant. At present, two decomposition processes, namely a one-stage method and a two-stage method, are used for producing alumina at home and abroad. The bauxite adopted by the existing alumina plant in China is mostly hard-soluble diaspore, the decomposition process adopts a one-stage decomposition process, and the product quality hardly meets the index requirement of sandy alumina. The two-stage decomposition process can improve the crystallization process of the aluminum hydroxide, improve the strength and granularity of the product aluminum oxide and is suitable for being used as a technical scheme for producing sandy aluminum oxide.
The most common flow of two-stage decomposition is: the aluminum hydroxide slurry in the decomposition end tank is subjected to primary classification through a primary hydrocyclone, underflow coarse aluminum hydroxide particles serving as finished products enter a flat disc filter and overflow to a secondary hydrocyclone for further classification; and the overflow of the secondary hydrocyclone is concentrated by a settling tank and then filtered by a vertical disc filter or a horizontal belt filter to obtain fine seeds, and the underflow of the hydrocyclone and the residual slurry discharged from the seed precipitation tank are mixed and filtered together to obtain coarse seeds. The fine seeds and the coarse seeds are respectively used as seed crystal particles for decomposing agglomeration sections and growing sections, and the sodium aluminate solution is continuously decomposed to obtain the aluminum hydroxide product.
Generally, the solid content of the overflow of the secondary hydrocyclone containing fine aluminum hydroxide particles is 100-200 g/L, which cannot be directly processed by a vertical disc filter, and the horizontal belt filter occupies a large area and has small capacity, which is not suitable for the fine seed filtering process of a large-scale alumina plant, so the overflow of the secondary hydrocyclone must be sent to a concentration device to generate concentrated slurry with the solid content of more than 200g/L, which is suitable for being sent to the vertical disc filter, and overflow mother liquor with the solid content of less than or equal to 1g/L is obtained. The fine seed settling tank is used as a concentration device in the grading process and is widely applied to two-stage decomposition. As the particles with the diameter of below-45 mu m in the fine seed slurry reach 20-60 percent, the sedimentation speed is low, and meanwhile, in order to obtain clear mother liquor with the solid content of less than or equal to 1g/L, the area required by a fine seed sedimentation tank is still large under the condition of adding a hydrate flocculating agent, a single line 100 million tons of alumina factories are generally required to be provided with not less than 3 sedimentation tanks with the diameter of 40m, and each sedimentation tank is provided with 4 rake motors with the power of 7.5 kW. The large diameter fine seed settling tank takes up large land, high investment, high operating costs, and the equipment is very sensitive to fine seed slurry flow and solids variation, often resulting in production interruptions due to rake system overload trips.

By adding the hydraulic clarifier, the problem that the underflow of a secondary cyclone arranged at a high position in the original flow enters a settling tank for concentration and needs to be returned to a vertical disc filter positioned at the high position by an underflow pump, namely the potential energy of slurry is lost, is avoided. Thereby saving electric energy and reducing the operation cost.
3. The fine seed settling tank is eliminated, so that an organic flocculant added into the settling tank for accelerating the settling of fine seed particles is eliminated, and the phenomenon that extra organic carbon enters the flow to pollute products and seed precipitation mother liquor is avoided.
4. The strength of the fine particles growing at low temperature in the decomposition tank is not high, the dendritic branches are easy to grow, the overflow fine seed slurry of the secondary hydrocyclone flows at high speed along the outer wall in the cyclone of the hydraulic clarifier, compared with the free sedimentation in the sedimentation tank, more dendritic crystals are broken into fine seed particles with finer granularity and higher strength after violent impact, the decomposition and agglomeration process is facilitated, and the product quality is improved.
