AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies are inefficient at removing heavy metals from ink wastewater, and the treatment costs are high. They also fail to achieve resource recovery. Traditional coagulants have limited effectiveness, commercial adsorbents are expensive, membrane fouling is severe, and sludge production is large.
A metal composite coagulant was prepared using iron-copper slag, and combined with an ink sludge-based adsorbent and a catechol-modified polyethersulfone membrane. Through coagulation, adsorption, and membrane filtration, the ink wastewater was thoroughly purified and heavy metal resources were recovered.
It improves the efficiency of ink wastewater treatment, reduces costs, achieves efficient removal and resource recovery of heavy metals, extends membrane lifespan, and reduces sludge production.
