Problems solved by technology

People such as Zhao Sufen reported the experimental research of zero-valent iron treatment of uranium-containing wastewater in "Zerovalent Iron Treatment of Wastewater Containing Uranium", "Industrial Water Treatment", 7 (31), (2011). First, hydrochloric acid and Sodium hydroxide adjusts the pH of the uranium-containing wastewater to be treated, and the introduction of chloride ions will corrode the equipment and adversely affect the solution treatment
Zhou Quanyu and others reported that sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB) and zero valent iron (ZVI) The potential of synergistically removing pollutants such as uranium and sulfate in wastewater has achieved good results. This process not only uses hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide to adjust the pH of the solution, but also needs to domesticate and cultivate sulfate-reducing bacteria flora. The process is complicated and greatly increased cost

Abstract

The invention relates to a treatment method of uranium-containing waste water. The treatment method comprises steps such as pH value adjusting, adding of iron powder, and filtering. According to the treatment method, uranium factory raffinate is used for adjusting pH value of uranium-containing waste water, and iron powder high in zero-valent iron content is used, uranium removing efficiency of uranium-containing waste water is increased obviously, cost is reduced, environment protection is realized, and industrialized application prospect is promising.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of hydrometallurgy. More specifically, the present invention relates to a treatment method for uranium-containing wastewater. 【Background technique】 [0002] With the rapid development of the global atomic energy industry and the wide application of nuclear fuel cycle and nuclear technology, the amount and types of radioactive waste water produced are increasing, and its sources are also very wide. Applications (such as uranium mining, uranium smelting, reactor operation, reactor fuel reprocessing, production and use of radioisotopes, etc.) emit large amounts of radioactive wastewater. In addition, in uranium production plants, in addition to the uranium process flow, the raffinate produced from the supernatant obtained by dissolving uranium chemical concentrates after extraction treatment also contains a relatively high concentration of uranium, which cannot be directly discharged and is used for uranium...
