Removal of High-Concentration Sulfate Ions from the Sodium Alkali FGD Wastewater Using Ettringite Precipitation Method: Factor Assessment, Feasibility, and Prospect

The feasibility of removal of sulfate ions from the sodium alkali FGD wastewater using the ettringite precipitation method was evaluated. Factors affecting the removal of sulfate ions, such as NaAlO 2 dosage, Ca(OH) 2 dosage, solution temperature, anions (Cl − , NO 3 − and F − ), and heavy metal ions (Mg 2+ and Mn 2+ ), were investigated, and the optimal experimental conditions for the removal of sulfate ions were determined.
