For once-diluted brine, what should be done if the ammonium content in the raw salt is high? What are the solutions?
Does sodium hypochlorite oxidize ammonia to nitrogen?
Is there an ammonia removal process in the primary brine treatment? Sodium hypochlorite is added, and then a blower is used to remove ammonia
No, the reaction equation does not produce nitrogen; it produces monochloramine and dichloramine
What are monochloramine and dichloramine?
In saline solution, inorganic ammonium reacts with sodium hypochlorite at pH > 9 to form readily decomposable compounds NH2Cl and NHCl2; the reaction equations are as follows: NH3 + Cl2 → NH2Cl + HCl, NH3 + 2Cl2 → NHCl2 + 2HCl.
These two are easier to decompose; what do they end up turning into?
:Lol can potentially cause evaporation; the effect is even better!
Without an ammonium removal process, the NH4+ content in the salts is as high as 1.15%; even by adding sodium hypochlorite followed by blowing, it is unlikely that the levels can be reduced to the required standard.
