Advanced Oxidation Treatment of Papermaking Wastewater by Homogeneous Fenton Reaction
The quality of water from traditional two-stage biochemical treatment process of papermaking wastewater cannot meet the pollutants discharge standard of paper industry,therefore it is necessary to develop new advanced treatment processes to further treat the effluent. This paper adopts the homogeneous Fenton oxidation technology to treat the effluent from a secondary sedimentation tank of a papermaking factory by batch experiments. The optimum reaction conditions are H2O2dosage 6.54mmol/L, FeSO4.7H2O dosage 200mg/L, pH=3, t=1.5h and of all the experiments the dosage of polyacrylamide is 3ppm. The COD of the treated water is under 50mg/L and its removal rate can reach as high as 75.4%, the chroma almost falls to zero, the effluent meets the first grade of the national wastewater discharge standard. Therefore, the homogeneous Fenton is an effective alternative for papermaking wastewater advanced treatment, due to its high effect.
