Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of water treatment, in particular to a composition for treating circulating water, and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] The main challenges faced by circulating cooling water during operation include corrosion, fouling and microbial growth. Among them, microorganisms are mainly controlled by bactericides. Corrosion and fouling are two key problems that are interrelated and have opposite trends, and mastering the balance between the two is crucial to solving these problems. Therefore, composite agents are usually used to control corrosion and fouling, and there is a synergistic effect between the components in these agents, which can more effectively play a role in corrosion and scale inhibition.

[0003] At present, the composite agents commonly used in circulating water treatment are mainly organic phosphonic acid as the main corrosion inhibitor, and phosphate needs to be added to enhance the corrosion inhibition effect when the water quality is corrosive. Even if zinc salt which can quickly form a precipitate film is used, due to its soft and easily damaged film, it still needs to be used in combination with phosphorus-containing agents. However, due to the discharge of phosphorus which can cause water eutrophication, the use of high-phosphorus agent formulations is increasingly restricted. Therefore, the development of low-phosphorus or non-phosphorus corrosion and scale inhibition formulations has become an important direction for water treatment agent research and development. Before the start of the circulating cooling water system, the system needs to be cleaned and pre-filmed. Pre-filming refers to the process of adding a pre-filming agent to the system to generate a protective film with corrosion resistance on the clean metal surface through physical and chemical action. The pre-filming scheme can be divided into two categories: one is a special formula pre-filming scheme, which has no direct relationship between its composition and the composition of the formula after daily operation, and after pre-filming, the system needs to be replaced by increasing the amount of water replacement, which is more complicated to operate and manage. At present, the special formula pre-filming scheme widely used in China is mainly a composite formula of polyphosphate and zinc salt. Although the pre-filming effect is good, the dosage of the agent is large, and the phosphorus and zinc content in the waste water after pre-filming is high, which has potential pollution risk to the environment water body. The other is a pre-filming scheme with high concentration, which is characterized by a close relationship between the composition of the pre-filming formula and the composition of the normal operation formula. After pre-filming is completed, the pre-filming agent is naturally replaced during operation, and only a low concentration of corrosion inhibitor is needed during normal operation to maintain and repair the protective film, which is relatively simple in operation and management.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a low-phosphorus and high-efficiency corrosion and scale inhibition solution. SUMMARY

[0005] Therefore, the present application provides a composition for treating circulating water, and a preparation method and application thereof, to solve the problem of how to improve the corrosion and scale inhibition performance of the composition for treating circulating water.

[0015] In a fourth aspect, the present application provides a circulating water treatment method, comprising adding the composition for circulating water treatment into circulating water, so that the concentration of the composition in the circulating water is 20-100 mg / L.

[0016] The present application has the following beneficial effects: The composition of the present application is completely free of phosphorus and environmentally sensitive substances, and is environmentally friendly. The ternary system of the present application effectively improves the corrosion and scale inhibition performance of the circulating water treatment composition through the synergistic effect of quaternary ammonium chitosan, anionic corrosion inhibitor and plant polyphenol.
