Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of textile wastewater treatment, and in particular relates to a method for efficiently treating and recovering textile wastewater catalyzed by self-generated copper phthalocyanine. Background Art

[0002] The textile industry is a vital component of the national economy, but the treatment of wastewater generated during its production process is an increasingly serious problem. This wastewater often contains high concentrations of pollutants such as synthetic dyes, auxiliaries, and metal organic pigments. These wastewaters are characterized by complex composition, high chroma, high toxicity, and resistance to degradation. Direct discharge of these wastewaters can cause severe pollution to the aquatic environment. Among these pollutants, copper phthalocyanine (CuPc), a key metal organic pigment, is widely used in the textile printing and dyeing industry due to its excellent stability and catalytic properties. However, traditional treatment methods often struggle to recycle these high-value-added substances, resulting in significant resource waste.

[0003] Currently, treatment technologies for textile wastewater primarily fall into three categories: physical, chemical, and biological. While physical methods such as adsorption and membrane separation are simple to operate, they only achieve phase transfer of pollutants and cannot fundamentally resolve the pollution problem. Advanced oxidation technologies within chemical methods have garnered widespread attention due to their high degradation efficiency, but they rely on the properties of strong oxidizing free radicals, which, while degrading pollutants, also destroy valuable wastewater substances like CuPc. Biological methods are limited by long treatment cycles and low removal efficiency for recalcitrant organic matter. These traditional technologies share a common flaw: an excessive focus on pollutant removal efficiency while neglecting the recovery and utilization of high-value-added components in the wastewater, resulting in wasted resources and an increased risk of secondary pollution.

[0004] In actual engineering applications, existing technologies still face many challenges: on the one hand, the non-selective attack of strong oxidizing free radicals in traditional oxidation processes can lead to structural damage of valuable substances such as CuPc, making them lose their recovery value; on the other hand, the introduction of external catalysts not only increases the treatment cost, but also faces technical difficulties in their recycling and reuse. In addition, the complex components in wastewater often significantly interfere with the treatment effect, and most processes have relatively stringent requirements on operating conditions such as pH and temperature, which limits their applicability in actual wastewater treatment. The existence of these problems makes it difficult for textile wastewater treatment to achieve the dual goals of "pollution control" and "resource recovery", and there is an urgent need to develop a treatment technology to break through this bottleneck. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the defects of the prior art and provide a method for preparing aluminum titanate nanofibers.

[0006] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions: A method for efficiently treating and recovering textile wastewater catalyzed by self-generated copper phthalocyanine comprises the following steps: A1. Adjust the mixed dye wastewater containing copper phthalocyanine pigment and synthetic dye to an appropriate reaction pH value (3.0-11.0), and show good degradation and recovery performance within the pH range; A2. Add an oxidant to the mixed dye wastewater to carry out an oxidation reaction. After the reaction is completed, the dye is removed; A3. Use centrifugation or filtration to recover copper phthalocyanine. The recovered copper phthalocyanine can be recycled after washing with deionized water.

[0007] Optionally, the concentration of the copper phthalocyanine is 0.1-0.4 g / L.

[0008] Optionally, the synthetic dye is one or more of rhodamine B, crystal violet, methyl orange, reactive black 5, malachite green and methylene blue.

[0009] Optionally, the oxidant is one of peroxymonosulfate and peroxydisulfate; wherein the added concentration of peroxymonosulfate is 0.5-3.0 mM; the added concentration of peroxydisulfate is 0.1-1.0 mM.

[0010] Optionally, the oxidation reaction temperature is 20-30° C., and the time is 20-40 min.

[0011] The present invention treats wastewater by using copper phthalocyanine in wastewater as a catalyst to in situ excite an oxidant to generate singlet oxygen ( 1 O2), and in the process of oxidation, it selectively reacts with the dye in the wastewater to complete the dye removal; and because copper phthalocyanine has a stable structure, it can be separated by simple physical methods such as filtration or centrifugation.

[0012] While avoiding damage to the CuPc structure, the present invention achieves efficient degradation of multiple synthetic dye pollutants and simultaneous high-purity recovery of the CuPc catalyst, breaking through the technical bottleneck of traditional wastewater treatment that only focuses on pollutant removal and ignores the recovery of high-value-added resources. It has good environmental adaptability, system stability and engineering application potential.

[0013] Beneficial effects of the present invention: Advantage 1: Achieve selective and efficient degradation of pollutants The present invention utilizes the existing copper phthalocyanine in wastewater to activate the oxidant in situ, generating singlet oxygen with mild oxidation potential and high selectivity, and can achieve broad-spectrum and high-efficiency degradation and decolorization of various synthetic dyes at room temperature and pressure; Advantage 2: Synchronous high-purity recovery of catalyst resources The system of the present invention avoids the destruction of the CuPc structure by free radicals, and the CuPc maintains a stable structure during the reaction process, and can be recovered in high purity by simple physical means such as filtration; Advantage 3: Easy operation and mild reaction conditions The reaction can be carried out directly using naturally occurring CuPc in wastewater without the need for complex catalyst preparation and functional modification. The system has a mild reaction (room temperature, normal pressure, and no strict pH control required), making the treatment process environmentally friendly and easy to implement and scale up. Advantage 4: Strong adaptability to the system environment The catalytic system can operate stably under a wide range of conditions from pH 3.0 to 11.0 and has a high sensitivity to Cl - 、NO3 - 、SO4 2- It shows good resistance to interference from common anions and humic acid, and has good resistance to complex matrices, and is suitable for actual dye wastewater treatment under different sources and water quality conditions; Advantage 5: Reduce costs, improve economy and sustainability The "autogenous catalysis" strategy avoids the addition of precious metals or multi-step synthesis catalysts, improves resource utilization, reduces wastewater treatment costs, and complies with the concept of green, low-carbon, and sustainable development; Advantage 6: Breaking through the traditional technical limitations of “focusing on degradation and neglecting recycling” This invention, for the first time, achieves the coordinated unification of "pollutant degradation" and "catalyst resource recovery" in the same reaction system, establishing a new water treatment technology model that integrates pollution control and resource utilization. It provides an innovative paradigm for resolving the contradiction between the recovery of high-value-added components and pollution control in complex industrial wastewater. In summary, the present invention not only improves the environmental performance and economic benefits of dye wastewater treatment, but also provides a theoretical basis and technical support for the resource treatment of industrial pigment / dye wastewater, and has broad application prospects and industrial promotion value.
