Description

Flocculation treatment method of uranium purification waste liquid
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of waste liquid treatment, and particularly relates to a flocculation treatment method of uranium purification waste liquid.
Background
The raffinate produced by the uranium purification process is acidic uranium-containing waste liquid, the concentration of H + is about 1.5mol/L, the concentration of uranium is less than 100mg/L, and the uranium-containing waste liquid contains Fe, cr, ni, mo, ca and other various metal impurities, and also comprises ore particles or impurities which are insoluble in nitric acid and suspended matters formed by mud carried in slag in the waste liquid. Wherein the main components of the mud component which is symbiotic with the ore are SiO 2 and silicate, and the waste liquid forms colloid after being dispersed.
In the existing uranium purification process, the volume reduction treatment of acidic uranium-containing waste liquid and the recycling and multiplexing of nitric acid are realized by adopting a decompression rectification technology. However, because the composition of the uranium purification waste liquid is complex, the scale formation and even the blockage of a reboiler tube array are easy to cause, and the waste liquid treatment capacity of the uranium purification production line is seriously affected. Aiming at a heterogeneous system of uranium purification waste liquid, an effective and feasible treatment method is not available.
It is therefore desirable to devise a flocculation treatment method for uranium purification waste liquid to solve the above problems.
Disclosure of Invention

Step 2: primary mixing waste liquid and flocculant
Temporary storage is carried out on acid uranium-containing waste liquid generated by a uranium purification production line in a waste liquid receiving tank, the waste liquid is conveyed to a mixer by a shielding pump A, a flocculating agent is conveyed to the mixer by a metering pump, and primary mixing is realized in the mixer;
step 3: mixing the waste liquid and the flocculant again
The waste liquid after primary mixing and the flocculating agent enter a three-stage pipeline mixer for further mixing, so that uniform mixing is ensured, and flocculate is prevented from being crushed again;
step 4: flocculation separation
The flocculate and the clear liquid are clarified and split in a clarifier, so that a clear interface is formed between the flocculate and the clear liquid.
The polymer flocculant solid in the step 1 is cationic polyacrylamide, polyvinyl alcohol, sodium polyacrylate or polyaluminium chloride.
The mass concentration of the flocculant prepared in the step 1 is 0.3-0.8%.
In the step 1, 10m 3/h of compressed air is introduced into the flocculant preparation tank to realize bubbling stirring so as to be fully and uniformly mixed.
In step 2, the ratio of the flocculant to the waste liquid stream mixed at one time is 1 (1-60).
In the step 3, the time of the liquid passing through the three-stage pipeline mixer is controlled within 0.5-6 s.
In the step 4, the retention time of the liquid in the clarifier is 50-300 s when the phase separation is clarified.
In step 4, the volume content of polyacrylamide (cation type) in the supernatant after clarification is less than 0.01%, the content of suspended matters is less than 20mg/L, and the COD content is less than 300mg/L.
In the step 4, the supernatant flows to the waste liquid middle tank from the overflow port, and is subsequently sent to the rectification system through the shielding pump B for the rectification process.
In step 4, the flocs are discharged from the bottom of the clarifier to a soil storage tank and then pumped to temporary storage by a soil transfer pump.
