Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of wastewater treatment technology, specifically to a method for treating wastewater from slaughterhouses and a water treatment agent. Background Technology

[0002] The main source of slaughterhouse wastewater is the series of wastewater discharged during the slaughtering process. This wastewater contains large amounts of blood, fat, meat scraps, and fur, and is high in organic pollutants and animal fats, especially CODcr and animal fats. High CODcr levels in slaughterhouse wastewater indicate excessive organic matter in the water, leading to water pollution after discharge. High CODcr levels also have toxic effects on aquatic organisms, causing them to die or migrate. Furthermore, animal fats are difficult to degrade in water, easily accumulating and leading to eutrophication, which affects the survival of aquatic life. Therefore, effective slaughterhouse wastewater treatment measures must be implemented to reduce CODcr and animal fat levels in the wastewater to protect the environment and human health.

[0003] In the process of treating slaughterhouse wastewater, water treatment agents are usually added to remove organic pollutants. However, the removal efficiency of currently used water treatment agents for organic matter in slaughterhouse wastewater needs improvement. Therefore, developing a water treatment agent that can effectively remove CODcr and animal fats from slaughterhouse wastewater is of great significance. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention proposes a method for treating slaughterhouse wastewater and a water treatment agent, which solves the problem that water treatment agents in related technologies have poor removal effects on CODcr and animal fat in slaughterhouse wastewater.

[0005] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0006] This invention proposes a water treatment agent, the raw materials of which include the following components in parts by weight:

[0007] Chitosan 40-50 parts, activated carbon 20-40 parts, sodium polystyrene sulfonate 18-26 parts, polyethyleneimine 4-18 parts, inorganic polymer flocculant 15-25 parts.

[0008] As a further technical solution, the weight ratio of sodium polystyrene sulfonate to polyethyleneimine is 2~4:1.

[0009] In this invention, when the weight ratio of sodium polystyrene sulfonate to polyethyleneimine is 2 to 4:1, the removal effect of water treatment agents on CODcr and animal fat in slaughterhouse wastewater can be further enhanced.

[0010] As a further technical solution, the activated carbon is modified activated carbon, and the raw materials of the modified activated carbon include activated carbon and ethyl hydroxynicotinic acid compounds.

[0011] In this invention, activated carbon is modified using ethyl hydroxynicotinate compounds. On the one hand, this makes the activated carbon easier to combine with other components in the water treatment agent to form a more stable water treatment agent. On the other hand, it enhances the adsorption activity of the activated carbon, enabling it to effectively capture and remove organic pollutants in slaughterhouse wastewater, and further enhances the removal effect of the water treatment agent on CODcr and animal fat in slaughterhouse wastewater.

[0012] As a further technical solution, the hydroxynicotinic acid ethyl ester compound is one or two of 2,4-dihydroxy-6-methylnicotinic acid ethyl ester and 4,6-dihydroxynicotinic acid ethyl ester, preferably 2,4-dihydroxy-6-methylnicotinic acid ethyl ester.

[0013] As a further technical solution, the weight ratio of activated carbon to ethyl hydroxynicotinic acid compound is 5~29:1.

[0014] When the weight ratio of activated carbon to ethyl hydroxynicotinate compounds is 5~29:1, the removal effect of water treatment agents on CODcr and animal fat in slaughterhouse wastewater can be further enhanced.

[0015] As a further technical solution, the preparation method of the modified activated carbon includes the following steps: dispersing the activated carbon evenly in dimethylformamide, adding the ethyl hydroxynicotinic acid compound, stirring, and drying to obtain the modified activated carbon.

[0016] As a further technical solution, the raw material for the modified activated carbon also includes sodium sulfite; the weight ratio of the ethyl hydroxynicotinate compound and the sodium sulfite is 1~5:1.

[0017] The inventors also discovered that introducing sodium sulfite during the modification of activated carbon using ethyl hydroxynicotinamide compounds, and then using both sodium sulfite and ethyl hydroxynicotinamide compounds to modify the activated carbon, can further enhance the removal efficiency of water treatment agents on CODcr and animal fats in slaughterhouse wastewater. The optimal removal efficiency is achieved only when the weight ratio of ethyl hydroxynicotinamide compounds to sodium sulfite is 1–5:1. The speculated reason is that the presence of sodium sulfite further enhances the binding effect between activated carbon and ethyl hydroxynicotinamide compounds, making it easier for them to bind with animal fats and other organic pollutants in slaughterhouse wastewater, thereby further enhancing the removal efficiency of water treatment agents on CODcr and animal fats in slaughterhouse wastewater.

[0018] As a further technical solution, the preparation method of the modified activated carbon includes the following steps:

[0019] A1. Dissolve the sodium sulfite in water to obtain a sodium sulfite solution, add the activated carbon to the sodium sulfite solution, stir evenly, and dry to obtain sodium sulfite modified activated carbon.

[0020] A2. Disperse the sodium sulfite-modified activated carbon evenly in dimethylformamide, and add the ethyl hydroxynicotinic acid compound to obtain modified activated carbon.

[0021] As a further technical solution, in step A1, the mass fraction of the sodium sulfite solution is 20%~27%.

[0022] As a further technical solution, the activated carbon is one or both of coconut shell activated carbon and wood activated carbon.

[0023] As a further technical solution, the inorganic polymeric flocculant is one or more of polyaluminum sulfate, polyaluminum chloride, and polyaluminum ferric silicate.

[0024] The present invention also proposes a method for preparing a water treatment agent, comprising the following steps: mixing the chitosan, activated carbon, sodium polystyrene sulfonate, polyethyleneimine, and inorganic polymeric flocculant in proportion to weight to obtain the water treatment agent.

[0025] The present invention also proposes a method for treating slaughterhouse wastewater, comprising the following steps: adding the aforementioned water treatment agent to the slaughterhouse wastewater and mixing it evenly.

[0026] The working principle and beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0027] In this invention, the raw materials for the water treatment agent include chitosan, activated carbon, sodium polystyrene sulfonate, polyethyleneimine, and inorganic polymeric flocculants. Through the effective combination of these components, a structurally stable water treatment agent can be prepared. When used for slaughterhouse wastewater treatment, it can effectively reduce the CODcr and animal fat content in the wastewater. Specifically, the introduction of sodium polystyrene sulfonate and polyethyleneimine into the raw materials of the water treatment agent demonstrates their synergistic effect. By rationally controlling their weight ratio, they can effectively adsorb organic pollutants in slaughterhouse wastewater, effectively remove CODcr and animal fat content, and ultimately enhance the treatment effect of the water treatment agent on slaughterhouse wastewater.
