Problems solved by technology

However, the current research on three-dimensional electrode technology is mostly aimed at high-concentration organic pollutants (hundreds to several thousand mg / L), and the reaction process of trace emerging pollutants and high-concentration organic substances in the three-dimensional electrode system may be different, such as When the electrode reaches the adsorption equilibrium, the adsorption and electrosorption of the target pollutants have negligible effects on the removal rate of high-concentration organic pollutants, but have a greater impact on the removal rate of trace pollutants; in addition, existing research still exists Particle electrodes have problems such as low catalytic activity, easy deactivation, unstable operation, and high energy consumption. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a three-dimensional electrode treatment technology suitable for trace emerging pollutants.

[0061] Example 2: The treatment effect of the three-dimensional electrode treatment system proposed by the present invention on trace estrogen in reclaimed water

[0062] Using the loaded composite catalyst activated carbon prepared in Example 1 as the particle electrode, the diamond-doped boron electrode as the anode, and the stainless steel as the cathode, a continuous-flow three-dimensional electrode system was constructed to treat the estrogens containing five estrogens (E1, E2, E3, EE2 and BPA). The regenerated water was treated, and the initial concentration of estrogen in the regenerated water was respectively 1000 μg / L. When the applied current density is 2.0mA / cm 2 , the aeration rate is 0, and when the hydraulic retention time (5-20min) is changed, the removal rate of the system for the five estrogens in the reclaimed water is shown in the attached Figure 5shown. The electrolysis process was sampled for 4 hours, and samples were taken at certain time intervals to ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for treating trace estrogen in reclaimed water by using a bipolar three-dimensional electrode technology. A bipolar three-dimensional electrode system is technically characterized in that an activated carbon-based tin-antimony-titanium multi-component composite catalyst particle electrode is prepared aiming at trace estrogen with extremely low concentration, and a diamond boron-doped electrode with the highest electrocatalytic activity and the best stability is used as an anode material. The generation of electrogenerated oxidants such as hydroxyl free radicals and sulfate free radicals can be greatly promoted, so that the treatment effect on the target trace estrogen is enhanced. The technical characteristics further comprise that the system energy consumption can be effectively saved by changing the power supply mode; and meanwhile, the particle electrode serving as an adsorbent is regenerated in situ in the electrochemical oxidation process, and the system can operate continuously and stably. A more efficient and more stable multi-component composite catalyst electro-catalysis particle electrode and an anode material are adopted, the generation amount of an electrogenerated oxidant can be remarkably increased, target trace estrogen can be efficiently removed, and the effluent quality is stable.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of water treatment, in particular to a system and method for electrocatalytically treating trace estrogen in regenerated water. Background technique [0002] The regeneration and reuse of urban sewage is an effective solution to alleviate the shortage of water resources and improve the quality of water environment in countries all over the world. In recent years, some trace emerging pollutants (ng / L-μg / L) have been frequently detected in the secondary effluent of urban sewage plants, among which the detection rate of estrogen is relatively high, which seriously threatens the water quality safety of reclaimed water. The existing urban sewage treatment process is designed for traditional pollution indicators and cannot effectively remove emerging pollutants. It is necessary to develop new and efficient removal technologies suitable for trace emerging pollutants to ensure the water quality safety of reclaimed w...
