TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of wastewater treatment, and relates to a treatment method for dimethyl sulfoxide-containing rectification wastewater. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the rapid development of industrialization, especially in the production process of high-end materials such as carbon fiber, dimethyl sulfoxide is widely used as an important solvent. Effective recovery of dimethyl sulfoxide in production wastewater is an important measure for enterprises to reduce costs and increase efficiency and clean production. When the solvent is recovered, flake alkali is usually added to keep the system alkaline, effectively inhibiting the decomposition of dimethyl sulfoxide, thereby improving the yield of rectification products. However, the rectification water inevitably contains residual dimethyl sulfoxide. Since the reverse osmosis membrane used in the water reuse system is mostly aromatic polyamide, dimethyl sulfoxide as a universal solvent will cause irreversible damage to the reverse osmosis membrane, resulting in a decrease in the quality of the produced water. The main method for treating difficult-to-degrade organic wastewater at present is the advanced oxidation process, such as Fenton oxidation, photocatalytic oxidation and electrochemical oxidation, which mainly uses the generated hydroxyl radicals to oxidize organic matter, but waste gas is generated during the treatment process, which requires a waste gas treatment device, and the volatile organic compounds remaining in the water body are enriched and accumulated in the air during the reverse osmosis concentration stage of the water reuse, which endangers the health of employees.
[0003] Dielectric barrier discharge is a kind of electrochemical oxidation, which is a low-temperature plasma technology, also known as silent discharge, usually driven by a sinusoidal alternating current power supply. With the increase of voltage, the gas in the discharge system gradually discharges from the insulating state to the completely discharged state. Due to the presence of insulating medium, no sparks or arcs are generated during the discharge process, reducing energy loss. Dielectric barrier discharge can be divided into gas phase discharge and liquid phase discharge, the main difference being the environment in which the discharge region is located. When the discharge region is in the liquid phase, the energy utilization rate decreases because the heating of the water body to form water vapor consumes a large amount of energy. When the discharge region is in the air, the initiation difficulty is low, the energy utilization rate is high, the high-voltage electrode does not directly contact the water, no short-circuit current is generated, the electrode is protected, and it is almost not affected by water quality. However, the gas-liquid mass transfer area is small, and the active substances such as hydroxyl radicals with short life have a lower utilization rate than in the liquid phase. The technical difficulty of dielectric barrier discharge lies in the efficient utilization of active substances, that is, it is necessary to improve the gas-liquid mass transfer efficiency and prolong the reaction time.
[0004] Micro-nano bubbles refer to bubbles with a particle size of 10 nm to 100 pm, which have some unique properties: (1) larger specific surface area and internal pressure, which directly increases the gas-liquid phase interface area and improves the mass transfer efficiency for gas-liquid two-phase reaction process; (2) longer residence time in water, as the bubble rising speed is proportional to the bubble size according to Stokes equation, so the micro-nano bubbles have a smaller rising speed in water, and thus have a longer residence time in water; (3) can generate hydroxyl radicals, in the contraction process of micro-nano bubbles, the charge density of the double electric layer increases rapidly, and due to the rapid change of the disappearance of the gas-liquid interface, the high-concentration ions accumulated on the interface can release the accumulated chemical energy instantaneously, and the strong oxidation of hydroxyl radicals can be used to degrade organic pollutants. In the process of treating wastewater by dielectric barrier discharge, micro-nano bubbles are introduced to effectively improve the mass transfer efficiency and strengthen the discharge oxidation effect.
[0005] Chinese patent application CN118619441A discloses a kind of liquid under dielectric barrier discharge plasma coupling micro-nano bubble advanced oxidation device and method, using active gas generated by plasma as the gas source of micro-nano bubble generator, integrated equipment uses high-efficiency active substance in situ, when gas volume is large, bubble carries volatile substances in water and discharges into atmosphere. However, although this method realizes the purification of water body, the generated waste gas needs to be further treated by another device. SUMMARY

This method uses micro-bubbles in conjunction with dielectric barrier discharge to treat the effluent from the dimethyl sulfoxide rectification recovery system, i.e., dimethyl sulfoxide-containing rectification wastewater, simultaneously treating the wastewater and waste gas without secondary pollution, without the need for a supporting waste gas treatment device, and can be used as the influent for a water reuse system.

[0012] Further, in step (1), the concentration of dimethyl sulfoxide in the rectified wastewater is 100-1000 mg / L, and the pH is 9.0-10.5.

[0021] (2) The present application sets up a waste gas reprocessing process, the volatile organic compounds such as dimethyl sulfide and dimethyl disulfide generated by the oxidation and decomposition of dimethyl sulfoxide have an odor, which are adsorbed and concentrated by the activated carbon plate. The adsorbed volatile organic compounds are desorbed after being heated by steam, and then connected to the wastewater again as the gas source of the micro-nano bubble generator, and oxidized and decomposed in the discharge oxidation process, realizing waste gas treatment.
[0022] (3)The carbon dioxide generated by the oxidation reaction of volatile organic matters can react with sodium hydroxide originally existing in the wastewater, maintain the balance of air pressure inside and outside the device, reduce the pH of the water body to 7.0-8.5, and the effluent can be directly used as the influent of the reverse osmosis concentration stage in the subsequent reclaimed water reuse system, without adjusting the pH of the influent, avoiding affecting the reverse osmosis membrane and reducing the desalination rate, and without causing waste gas enrichment and endangering the health of employees.
