ABSTRACT
The treatment cost for Cl- removal by Friedel's salt precipitation depended significantly on utilization rate of the precipitant aluminate. In this study, effects of Ca/Al molar ratio, reaction time, temperature and Al/Cl molar ratio were investigated to maximize Al utilization rate for Cl- removal from flue gas desulfurization wastewater. Batch results showed that the maximum Al utilization rate of 55.8-60.3% was obtained at Ca/Al ratio of 3.00, reaction time of 90 min, temperature of 35 °C and Al/Cl ratio of 0.50 regardless of the initial Cl- concentration. The precipitate obtained at the highest Al utilization rate had the highest interlayer spacing, the best crystal integrity, and the strongest binding energy of the Al-OH bond. The optimized condition made ion exchange between Cl- and OH- easier, and obtained more stable Friedel's salt structure to adsorb Cl-. Pilot-scale results showed that maximizing Al utilization rate with low dosages of precipitants had insignificant effects on the removal of Mg2+, Ca2+ and sulfate compared to the strategy to maximize Cl-, but enhanced Al utilization rate from 38.2% to 56.4%. Economic analysis showed that enhancing Al utilization rate greatly reduced treatment cost of the Friedel's salt precipitation method by 30.5%, and made the two-stage desalination process more feasible and worth popularizing.
