Characteristic of a Novel Composite Inorganic Polymer Coagulant-PAZF Prepared from Industrial Wastes
A new composite coagulant polymeric aluminum zinc ferric (PAZF) was synthesized from industrial wastes. The structure and morphology of the coagulant was characterized by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Infrared Spectroscopy (IR) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and the coagulation performances were evaluated by dyeing-printing wastewater treatment. The results show that new complex compounds are formed in PAZF. Compared with poly aluminum chloride (PAC), the contents of ionic polymerized bonds and the cross-copolymerization among Fe (III), Al (III) and Zn (II) hydroxyl polymerized bonds are increase obviously, and the surface morphology of PAZF presents a net-like structure with the longer molecular chain. Coagulation experiments indicate that PAZF exhibits better coagulation performance in removing turbidity, COD and chromaticity.
