Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of wastewater treatment technology, specifically relating to a method and apparatus for reusing chlorinated benzene wastewater from solution polymerization of rubber. Background Technology

[0002] Chlorobenzene is commonly used as an intermediate and solvent in dyes, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, and organic synthesis. It is a colorless, transparent, volatile liquid with an almond-like odor and is toxic to the environment and human health. Wastewater containing chlorobenzene can pollute water bodies, soil, and the atmosphere. However, due to its excellent properties, it is often used as an additive or solvent in rubber production for solution polymerization. Even after chlorobenzene recovery, some still transfers to rubber wastewater, with concentrations reaching over 200 mg / L. This chlorobenzene-containing wastewater must undergo environmentally friendly treatment, and the environmental impact of chlorobenzene gas emissions must be considered.

[0003] In rubber production processes, solution polymerization and emulsion polymerization are common. Compared to emulsion polymerization, which uses more additives and involves the addition of acids, alkalis, or salts during latex coagulation, leads to greater difficulty in treating the organic matter in the wastewater. The wastewater often has a high salt content and contains latex and rubber particles. Generally, after removing residual rubber particles via flotation, the wastewater is mixed with other wastewater in a wastewater treatment plant and treated with activated sludge for reuse. Solution polymerization typically uses fewer acids, alkalis, and salts, resulting in relatively lower salt content and the absence of latex. Reuse after removing organic matter is relatively easier. However, the presence of rubber particles increases the difficulty of reuse.

[0004] If chlorobenzene-containing wastewater is directly discharged into a wastewater treatment plant, it will inevitably affect the activated sludge, leading to substandard wastewater discharge. Although activated sludge capable of degrading chlorobenzene can be cultivated over time, the chlorobenzene concentration becomes unstable during production fluctuations, further impacting the wastewater treatment plant sludge. Therefore, chlorobenzene-containing wastewater must undergo separate treatment to remove its toxicity to microorganisms before being discharged into the wastewater treatment plant. Consequently, it is difficult to comprehensively consider the reuse of chlorobenzene-containing wastewater after wastewater treatment.

[0005] When chlorobenzene in wastewater is difficult to treat directly by physical and biological methods, advanced oxidation technologies such as Fenton oxidation, photocatalytic oxidation, and high-temperature wet catalytic oxidation are used. These technologies can pre-treat or deeply treat chlorobenzene-containing wastewater, but the treatment cost is usually high.

[0006] Patent CN101774736B discloses a deep treatment process for chloroprene rubber industrial wastewater. It mainly includes four steps: coagulation and sedimentation, multi-media filtration, ultrafiltration, and reverse osmosis. The advantages of this invention are: it can effectively remove the adverse effects of pollutants in chloroprene rubber industrial wastewater on ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis membranes at a relatively low cost, enabling the wastewater to meet the reverse osmosis feed water quality requirements and undergo desalination via reverse osmosis. The deeply treated wastewater can then be reused as high-quality industrial water for boiler feedwater, process water, etc., ensuring the stable, continuous, and reliable industrial operation of the deep treatment and reuse system, achieving a win-win situation for both the economy and the environment. This invention uses coagulation and sedimentation to treat suspended solids. However, in actual rubber wastewater treatment, it has been found that low concentrations of flocculants and coagulants have poor flocculation effects, even with high concentrations. Most of the colloidal particles cannot be removed by coagulation and sedimentation, resulting in severe clogging of subsequent multi-media and ultrafiltration processes. The added reagents themselves also have a clogging effect on subsequent ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis. At the same time, this invention lacks organic matter removal facilities, which will also cause fouling and clogging of subsequent reverse osmosis processes, which is not conducive to stable operation.

[0007] Patent CN102358650B discloses a method and apparatus for the deep purification and reuse of recalcitrant organic industrial wastewater. This invention targets water discharged after conventional biochemical treatment of recalcitrant organic industrial wastewater such as coking wastewater and dyeing wastewater. It combines advanced oxidation technology, membrane technology, and industrial water treatment technology to provide a method and apparatus for the deep treatment and reuse of recalcitrant organic industrial wastewater after conventional biochemical treatment, achieving zero discharge of industrial wastewater. The treatment method and apparatus include the following steps: 1) media filtration; 2) self-cleaning filtration; 3) COD decomposer; 4) visible light photocatalytic oxidation; 5) ultrafiltration membrane section; 6) reverse osmosis membrane section; ultimately producing high-quality water that can be reused in production to replace fresh water. Although the patent provides a reuse process that does not require biological treatment, the direct use of media filtration and self-cleaning is not suitable for wastewater containing rubber particles. This leads to the clumping of filter media and sticking of filter discs, resulting in a significant decrease in filtration efficiency. In addition, the COD decomposer has a low oxidation effect, and the visible light catalytic oxidation uses a honeycomb titanium dioxide catalyst, which is expensive and loses its catalytic effect after the surface is contaminated. Therefore, it is not suitable for reuse in treating rubber wastewater containing rubber particles.

[0008] In summary, the following technical problems exist in the current reuse of wastewater from solution-polymerized chlorinated benzene rubber:

[0009] 1. Wastewater is toxic to microorganisms and should not be directly discharged into the sewage treatment plant. It should be treated with activated sludge and then reused after comprehensive consideration.

[0010] 2. Chlorobenzene volatilizes during the wastewater treatment process, requiring a separate waste gas treatment facility.

[0011] 3. The wastewater treatment process is lengthy, involves many types of chemicals, requires large dosages, results in high operating costs, increases the salt content of the wastewater, makes reuse more difficult, and is also prone to fouling the reverse osmosis membrane.

[0012] 4. The wastewater contains additives and colloidal particles, which are prone to clumping and are difficult to reuse. Traditional air flotation methods are not thorough in removing colloidal particles and cause chlorobenzene to leak out, increasing the burden on subsequent tail gas treatment.

[0013] 5. The colloidal particles in the water contain chlorobenzene, which poses a health risk to the personnel handling the process.

[0014] 6. Organic matter in the reused concentrated wastewater must be treated at a wastewater treatment plant or a new concentrated wastewater treatment facility must be built to meet the standards. Summary of the Invention

[0038] The UV generator consists of a power supply, a UV lamp, and a reaction tube. The UV lamp in the primary UV generator is capable of producing UV light with a wavelength of 200–400 nm; a medium-voltage UV lamp is preferred, and the preferred installation power is 300–3000 W / m. 3 The secondary UV generator uses a UV lamp capable of producing ultraviolet light with a wavelength less than 200nm.

[0042] The reverse osmosis unit is a conventional wastewater reuse reverse osmosis unit, designed according to conventional methods, with an optimal water production rate of 75% to 85%.

[0043] Specifically, the method for reusing chlorinated benzene wastewater from solution polymerization of rubber includes the following steps:

[0044] (1) Homogenization: Wastewater enters the homogenizing tank of the present invention. The upper part of the homogenizing tank is provided with a one-way air inlet and a waste gas outlet pipeline, and the lower part is provided with a water outlet. The purpose of this step is to homogenize the wastewater and ensure that no chlorinated benzene waste gas escapes from the homogenizing tank.

[0045] (2) Oxidative Flotation: After the effluent from the homogenizing tank and the effluent from the bottom outlet of the oxidation tank are mixed, an oxidant is added and then mixed with the chlorobenzene waste gas from the top of the homogenizing tank before entering a two-stage UV generator for oxidation treatment. At a certain temperature, the organic matter in the wastewater of the first-stage UV generator is in an oxidized and excited state after being irradiated by high-intensity ultraviolet light. In particular, chlorobenzene can be photolyzed. At the same time, the oxidant is decomposed by high-intensity ultraviolet light to produce hydroxyl radicals and nascent oxygen, which oxidizes and decomposes organic matter such as chlorobenzene in both the gas phase and the water phase, thus purifying the waste gas and wastewater. Simultaneously, suspended solids in the wastewater adhere together with the nascent oxygen microbubbles generated by the oxidant and the carbon dioxide microbubbles generated by the oxidation of organic matter, eliminating the stability of the suspended solids and making them easy to remove by flotation. The low-intensity ultraviolet light of the second-stage UV generator further converts the nascent oxygen generated by the first-stage UV reactor into ozone, which improves the oxidizing power and further degrades organic matter, and further promotes the adhesion of small bubbles to the suspended solids. The oxidation effect of the two-stage UV generator and the adhered bubbles also perform surface oxidation on the suspended solids, making them less prone to agglomeration and gelation. The effluent from the secondary UV generator enters the oxidation tank, where, under the synergistic effect of ultrasound, the oxidant, strong free radicals, and ozone in the water thoroughly degrade organic matter. Simultaneously, suspended solids are removed through efficient flotation caused by the adhesion of small bubbles, ultrasonic cavitation, and the release of purified exhaust gas pressure. The oxidant dosage is controlled, and the water is circulated through the UV generator to ensure effective treatment of chlorobenzene and other organic matter.

[0046] The effluent from which organic matter and suspended solids have been removed enters the subsequent steps through the upper outlet of the oxidation tank. A sludge scraper is installed at the top of the oxidation tank; sludge and effluent enter a basket filter for separation. The scum is disposed of using standard methods, while the effluent meets discharge standards. Purified exhaust gas is discharged from the top of the oxidation tank after meeting discharge standards. The purpose of this step is to purify waste gas, remove organic matter such as chlorobenzene from wastewater, remove suspended solids, and remove organic matter from the concentrated wastewater for subsequent reuse, creating conditions for reuse and ensuring that the discharged wastewater meets standards.

[0047] (3) Clarification and buffering: The effluent from the oxidation tank enters the buffer tank, which serves as a buffer for subsequent reuse.

[0048] (4) Reuse Pretreatment: The effluent from the buffer tank enters a conventional multi-media filter to further remove the trace amounts of suspended solids carried over with the effluent from the oxidation tank. The multi-media effluent then enters a conventional ultrafiltration unit, and the multi-media backwash water enters a homogenization tank. Ultrafiltration further removes particulate matter from the multi-media effluent, and the ultrafiltration backwash water is returned to the buffer tank. This step serves as pretreatment for subsequent reverse osmosis. The backwash water from both the multi-media filter and ultrafiltration is returned to this invention and not discharged externally to improve the water production rate. The treatment process controls the residue of the oxidant without the need for additional bactericides.

[0049] (5) Reuse treatment: After adding a reducing agent to remove residual oxidant, the ultrafiltration effluent enters the conventional reverse osmosis unit for reuse, and the concentrate enters the front end of the first-stage UV reactor of this invention for treatment.

[0050] The wastewater recycling device for solution-polymerized rubber containing chlorinated benzene of the present invention is implemented as follows:

[0051] Wastewater first enters a homogenizing tank for buffering. The effluent from the homogenizing tank is mixed with the effluent from the bottom of the oxidation tank, then an oxidant is added. This mixture is then mixed with chlorobenzene exhaust gas from the top of the homogenizing tank before entering a two-stage UV generator for oxidation treatment. In the first-stage UV generator, organic matter such as chlorobenzene in both the gaseous and aqueous phases is oxidized and decomposed. Simultaneously, suspended solids adhere to the microbubbles generated by the reaction, making them easily removable by flotation. In the second-stage UV generator, low-intensity ultraviolet light further converts the nascent oxygen in the effluent from the first-stage UV reactor into ozone, increasing oxidizing power and further degrading organic matter. It also further enhances the adhesion and oxidation of suspended solids through microbubble adhesion, preventing clumping and agglomeration. The effluent from the second-stage UV generator enters the oxidation tank, where, under the synergistic effect of ultrasound, the oxidant, strong oxidizing free radicals, and ozone in the effluent continue to efficiently degrade organic matter. Simultaneously, suspended solids are removed through efficient flotation due to the adhesion of microbubbles, ultrasonic cavitation, and the release of purified exhaust gas pressure. The influent and effluent from the two-stage UV generator circulate in the lower part of the oxidation tank, continuously degrading organic matter. The purified exhaust gas is discharged from the top; scum generated by air flotation in the oxidation tank enters a basket filter along with the scum water. The filtered scum is disposed of conventionally, and the effluent meets organic matter discharge standards. The effluent from the oxidation tank is discharged from the upper middle part into a buffer tank. Residual suspended solids in the buffer tank are further removed by a multi-media filter before entering the ultrafiltration unit. The effluent from the ultrafiltration unit undergoes reverse osmosis desalination treatment; the desalinated permeate is reused, and the concentrate is returned to the primary UV reactor of this invention. Backwash water from the multi-media unit is returned to the homogenizing tank, and backwash water from the ultrafiltration unit is returned to the buffer tank to improve the wastewater reuse rate.

[0052] This invention employs a two-stage UV generator. The first-stage UV generator uses high-intensity ultraviolet light emitted from a medium-pressure UV fan. This light causes pollutants to absorb the ultraviolet light and enter a form that is easily degradable. Simultaneously, it catalyzes hydrogen peroxide to generate hydroxyl radicals. The second-stage UV generator further utilizes the nascent oxygen in the effluent from the first-stage UV generator to produce ozone, thus efficiently degrading pollutants.

[0053] This invention utilizes the synergistic oxidation effects of ultrasound, hydrogen peroxide, ozone, and hydroxyl radicals to efficiently remove organic matter, significantly reducing the organic matter content in the influent of the reuse unit, ensuring the operating efficiency of the reuse unit, and guaranteeing that the discharged water meets standards. No catalysts or flocculants such as iron or aluminum salts are added during the organic matter removal process, avoiding contamination of subsequent reverse osmosis processes by these agents.

[0054] The solution polymerization rubber chlorinated benzene wastewater reuse method of this invention does not increase the salt content of the wastewater during the treatment process, except for a small amount of reducing agent. The residual oxidant and ozone from the oxidation process have bactericidal effects, eliminating the need to add chlorine-containing bactericides before ultrafiltration and thus not increasing the subsequent desalination burden. The concentrated wastewater undergoes organic matter treatment within this invention, eliminating the need for additional organic matter treatment facilities.

[0055] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0056] (1) In the method of the present invention, the waste gas is introduced into the wastewater treatment pipeline, and the wastewater and waste gas are treated by the same device, which saves the investment in waste gas and land occupation, and ensures that no harmful gas escapes during the reuse process; the invention process is compact and occupies a small area; the reused concentrated water is treated to meet the standards in the present invention, and no new concentrated water treatment facilities are required.

[0057] (2) This invention uses high-intensity ultraviolet light, low-intensity ultraviolet light in conjunction with oxidant, ozone and ultrasound, resulting in high advanced oxidation efficiency, thorough removal of chlorobenzene characteristic pollutants, ensuring efficient removal of concentrated organic matter in water, and ensuring that the organic matter in the effluent meets the standards.

[0058] (3) The present invention uses microbubbles generated in the two-stage UV generator to make the suspended matter in a state that is easy to be removed by air flotation and is not easy to agglomerate and gel. The purified waste gas, the decomposed oxidant, and the ozone generated by the secondary UV generator produce a synergistic and efficient air flotation effect under the use of ultrasound, effectively removing suspended particles, ensuring the removal rate of particles and other suspended matter in wastewater, and further ensuring the operating efficiency of the reuse device.

[0059] (4) This invention does not add catalysts or flocculants such as iron salts and aluminum salts during the removal of organic matter, thus avoiding the contamination of subsequent reverse osmosis by such agents.

[0060] (5) The oxidant of the present invention does not increase the salt content of wastewater, does not require an acid or alkaline pH environment, and does not increase the salt content of wastewater except for a small amount of reducing agent during the treatment process. The oxidant not consumed in the oxidation process has a bactericidal effect. There is no need to add chlorine-containing bactericides before ultrafiltration, and it does not increase the subsequent desalination burden.

[0061] (6) The oxidation cost of chlorinated benzene wastewater treatment process is high. After treatment, it is not discharged but reused. The method of the present invention improves the water resource utilization rate and improves the economic efficiency of wastewater operation costs.

[0062] (7) The recycled concentrated water is treated in this invention, and the organic matter in the wastewater meets the standards; the scum discharged from the oxidation tank does not contain chlorobenzene, and the treatment process is more environmentally friendly. Attached Figure Description

[0079] Example 1

[0080] The wastewater from a certain rubber plant has a chlorobenzene concentration of 200–350 mg / L, a COD of 300–500 mg / L, a suspended solids concentration of 500–1000 mg / L, and a conductivity of 150–300 μS / cm. The operating parameters are as follows.

Ultrasonic waves are not installed inside the oxidation tank, but a slag scraper is still installed. The operating parameters are as follows.

[0118] Homogenizing tank: Hydraulic retention time is preferably 10 hours;

[0119] Oxidation tank: The oxidant is hydrogen peroxide, the ratio of dry basis dosage to influent COD is 5:1, the hydraulic retention time is preferably 4h, the reaction temperature is 50℃, the effluent flow rate is 10 times the flow rate of the booster pump, and the gas-water ratio of waste gas to wastewater in the gas-water mixing pump is preferably 1:20.

[0129] Compared with Example 1, without the ultrasonic action of the present invention, even with the subsequent addition of dissolved air flotation, the suspended solids in the buffer tank still increased, resulting in a decrease in the operating efficiency of the recycling device. At the same time, the large amount of hydrogen peroxide remaining in the buffer tank led to an increase in the subsequent addition of reducing agent. The hydrogen peroxide was not effectively utilized, resulting in the need for further treatment of the wastewater organic matter before discharge.

The present invention is also not limited to the above examples, and all equivalent changes and improvements made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the present invention should fall within the patent coverage of the present invention.
