Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of wastewater treatment, in particular to a method for treating electrolytic manganese wastewater by using a carbon-based electrode and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] In 2022, China's manganese ore reserves will reach 280 million tons, accounting for 16.5% of the world's total, and its reserves rank second in the world. my country's electrolytic manganese production accounts for 98% of the world's electrolytic manganese production, making it the world's largest electrolytic manganese producer.

[0003] The rapid development of the electrolytic manganese industry can promote economic growth, but it also causes serious environmental pollution. The main manifestation is that the wastewater produced by electrolytic manganese contains substances that threaten human health and the ecological environment, and has a high content of suspended matter and significant color. According to the survey, in the manganese-containing wastewater produced by electrolytic manganese metal production enterprises, Mn 2+ The concentration is usually as high as 10-15g / L, or even higher. At present, the main methods for treating manganese-containing wastewater are precipitation, oxidation, biological and electrolytic methods. Among them: precipitation is to use flocculants to precipitate pollutants in electrolytic manganese wastewater. The operation is simple, but it produces a large amount of sludge that is difficult to handle; biological method is a treatment method that uses microorganisms to convert pollutants in electrolytic manganese wastewater into harmless substances. The treatment effect is good, but the technical requirements are high; oxidation is a method of using strong oxidants to oxidize and decompose pollutants in wastewater to purify wastewater, but oxidants are difficult to store and transport, and are easy to interfere with operations; and electrolytic method has the advantages of fast processing speed and easy control.

[0004] The concentration of ammonia nitrogen in the wastewater produced by electrolytic manganese is relatively high. Traditional methods for removing ammonia nitrogen include biological methods, gas stripping methods, breakpoint chlorination methods, chemical precipitation methods (such as struvite) and ion exchange methods, depending on the nitrogen concentration. Among them: when the ammonia concentration is in the range of tens to hundreds of mg / L, the biological method is the most effective. However, due to the tolerance level of microorganisms, when the ammonia nitrogen concentration is at a higher level, the treatment effect of this method is poor; for wastewater with ammonia concentrations as high as thousands or even tens of thousands of mg / L, the gas stripping method can transfer ammonia from the liquid phase to the gas phase to achieve ammonia recovery, but it has the disadvantage of poor economic efficiency when used to treat low-concentration ammonia; the ion exchange method has the disadvantages of limited exchange capacity, easy to cause secondary pollution, and complex regeneration process, which is not suitable for large-scale industrial applications; the cost of the reagents used in the breakpoint chlorination method is too high, and the additional alkali generated during the treatment process needs to be neutralized, thereby increasing the content of total dissolved solids. At the same time, the by-products such as chloramines and chlorinated organic matter will also cause secondary pollution; the chemical precipitation method is still in the laboratory stage, and the actual application needs further development.

[0005] At present, there are almost no special facilities for treating ammonia nitrogen in wastewater in my country's electrolytic manganese enterprises, and most of them discharge directly, so measures need to be taken to control ammonia nitrogen wastewater. In recent years, electrochemical advanced oxidation technology (EAOP) has been widely used in water environment remediation and has shown great potential in treating ammonia nitrogen wastewater. Research on electrochemical technology for electrolytic manganese wastewater is of great significance for the efficient, green and harmless treatment of electrolytic manganese wastewater.
