The reduction of wet desulfurization wastewater is one of the important tasks of coal-fired power plants, and it is important for achieving “zero emissions.” Evaporation and concentration (E&C) with waste heat is an effective way to reduce wastewater. Here, two typical types of industrial desulfurization wastewater are used to study the change rule of pH and total dissolved solids during wastewater concentration in a circulating evaporation tower. The results indicate that with the increase of concentration ratio, the pH of desulfurization wastewater is decreased rapidly and then is gradually stabilized at 2–3 when SO₂ or SO₃ is contained in flue gas, and the increase in conductivity is less for wastewater with higher SO₄²⁻ content. The characteristics of various ions are also analyzed, and the composition and microscopic morphology of the precipitates are characterized during concentration. The growth pattern of Ca²⁺ concentration is dependent on the ratio of Ca²⁺ and SO₄²⁻ in raw wastewater. When the concentration ratio is 7.21, the insoluble and slightly soluble substances undergo precipitation and the solid content is approximately 20%, which can help realize the concentration and reduction of desulfurization wastewater.
