The invention relates to an environment-friendly aluminum
alloy cleaning agent, which comprises the following components in percentage by weight: 3.0 to 8.0 percent of biodegradable chelating agent, 8 to 16 percent of
carbonate or
bicarbonate, 2 to 6 percent of
organic acid salt, 0.1 to 3.0 percent of anionic surfactant and the balance of water, the pH value of the
cleaning agent is 7.5 to 9.5. The invention further claims to protect an aluminum
alloy cleaning method using the environment-friendly aluminum
alloy cleaning agent. The aluminum alloy cleaning method comprises the following steps: heating the cleaning agent; immersing the aluminum alloy product into the cleaning agent; keeping contact; and washing with clear water and
drying. The aluminum alloy cleaning waste liquid treatment method comprises the steps that waste liquid is collected; adding an acidic
regulator to regulate the pH value to 6.0-7.0; adding a flocculating agent and stirring; standing and precipitating; and separating supernate and
sediment. The formula is flexible, and the waste liquid can be discharged after reaching the standard after being simply treated; and the device is particularly suitable for industrial application and small-batch cleaning operation of an aluminum alloy profile
extrusion production line. The cleaning agent is high in cleaning efficiency, free of
corrosion to aluminum alloy base materials and excellent in
environmental protection performance.
