Method and apparatus for processing acidic sea water

Abstract

A method and an apparatus for processing acidic seawater is disclosed, wherein the acidic seawater is firstly mixed with alkaline seawater, and neutralizing seawater after mixing is transferred into an aeration vessel to be aerated. The volume R of the used aeration vessel and the amount of neutralizing seawater which needs to be processed satisfy a measure relationship: R=(0.008−0.3)L, and the amount of the air brown into the aeration vessel Q, R, and L satisfy a measure relationship: Q=(25−85)L/R. The method and apparatus can be used for processing acidic seawater which rinsed the exhaust of the internal combustion engine, and they are particularly suitable for but not limited to ships, well drilling, floating factories and other offshore platforms.
