The invention relates to a production technology of
sponge iron for a water purifying agent. The production technology comprises steps as follows: (1), a dried and finely ground iron-containing
raw material is mixed uniformly with a carbonaceous material, a pore-forming auxiliary and binder components, and a mixture is pressed into balls; (2), green balls are dried and mixed uniformly with a
reducing agent and a desulfurizing agent, preheating, reducing and cooling are performed in a
coal shaft furnace, and a
sponge iron mixture is obtained; (3), after the
sponge iron mixture is subjected to magnetic separating, sponge iron metallized
pellets and residual
coal are obtained; sponge iron particles obtained after crushing and screening of the sponge iron metallized
pellets are used as the water purifying agent. The production technology has the remarkable advantages of being advanced, reliable, stable in product quality, low in production cost, high in production efficiency and
environmentally friendly, and large-scale production can be realized; the produced sponge iron water purifying agent has the advantages of large specific surface area, high
specific surface energy, higher electrochemical enrichment, physical absorption and
flocculation precipitation and the like, and can be widely used for treating various kinds of
wastewater with difficulty in biochemical degradation.
