Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of flocculant technology, and in particular relates to a wastewater treatment flocculant and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] Flocculation technology is one of the most widely used and cost-effective solid-liquid separation technologies in the water treatment field. Its core lies in using flocculants to aggregate suspended colloidal particles and fine suspended solids in water into large flocs, thereby accelerating the sedimentation or filtration separation process. The selection and performance of flocculants directly determine the water treatment effect, treatment cost, and effluent quality; therefore, flocculant research and development has always been a research hotspot in the water treatment field.
[0003] With the increasing complexity of industrial wastewater composition, single-type flocculants often fall short of meeting the demands for efficient treatment, leading to widespread attention on the research and application of composite flocculants. By compounding different types of flocculants or introducing multiple functional groups into the same molecule through chemical modification, the synergistic effect between components can be fully utilized, significantly improving flocculation performance. For example, multi-ion composite flocculants prepared using coal gasification slag contain iron, aluminum, and calcium ions simultaneously. When treating complex wastewater, the synergistic effect of these multiple ions effectively improves the coagulation performance of the flocculant.
[0004] Furthermore, chemical modification can endow flocculants with special responsive properties. For example, by synthesizing temperature-sensitive starch and pH-responsive etherifying agents, flocculants with unidirectional temperature memory function can be prepared. These flocculants can achieve temperature-triggered dye-directed flocculation, and after flocculation, their unique unidirectional temperature memory ability enables irreversible fixation of the floc conformation, effectively avoiding the re-electrostatic restabilization phenomenon of colloidal particles caused by reversible dissolution of flocculants, and significantly reducing the residual amount of flocculants in recycled water.
[0005] Despite significant progress in flocculant research, several pressing issues remain: the secondary pollution risk of traditional flocculants, the stability of natural polymeric flocculants, the industrialization cost of microbial flocculants, and the synergistic mechanism of composite flocculants. Therefore, developing novel, environmentally friendly, efficient, economical, and stable flocculants, conducting in-depth research on their mechanisms of action, and exploring targeted design strategies for specific pollutants are of significant scientific and practical value for achieving efficient industrial wastewater treatment, sustainable resource utilization, protecting the water environment, and reducing environmental pollution. Summary of the Invention
[0006] To address the above problems, this application provides a wastewater treatment flocculant and its preparation method.

[0008] 1) Precursor A was prepared by reacting guar gum with isopropylacrylamide; Precursor B was prepared by reacting guar gum with sodium methacrylate.
[0009] 2) Take deionized water, precursor A, precursor B, and dextran-derived polymer, mix them evenly, then add monomers and initiators, photo-initiate the reaction, purify and dry to obtain the final product.
[0010] Furthermore, in step 1), the mass ratio of guar gum to sodium methacrylate is 1:(1-1.5).
[0011] Furthermore, in step 1), the mass ratio of guar gum to isopropylacrylamide is 1:(0.75-1).
[0012] Furthermore, in step 2), the monomers are acrylamide monomer and acryloyloxyethyltrimethylammonium chloride, and the initiator is azobisisobutyramidine hydrochloride.
[0013] Furthermore, in step 2), the dextran-derived polymer is prepared using the following steps:
[0014] S1: Sodium caseinate and dextran were dissolved in deionized water and stirred overnight. Then, the mixture was freeze-dried. The resulting freeze-dried powder was spread in a glass dish and kept moist with potassium bromide solution. The temperature was controlled at 55-65℃ to react and obtain dextran derivatives.
[0015] S2: Dissolve zein in an ethanol solution, add sodium thiocate and stir until homogeneous to obtain a base solution; dissolve the dextran derivative in deionized water to obtain an aqueous solution of the dextran derivative; slowly disperse the base solution into the dextran derivative solution, stir thoroughly, evaporate to remove ethanol, and freeze-dry to obtain the final product.
[0016] Furthermore, in step S1, the mass ratio of sodium caseinate to dextran is 1:(1.5-2.5).
[0017] Furthermore, in step S2, the mass concentration of zein in the base solution is 2-3.5%.
[0018] Furthermore, in step S2, the volume ratio of the base liquid to the dextran derivative solution is 1:(4-6).

[0020] This application also provides a wastewater treatment flocculant, which is prepared by the above-described preparation method.
[0021] Compared with the prior art, this application has the following beneficial effects:
[0022] This application utilizes guar gum, a natural polysaccharide, grafted with two monomers to prepare a pH- and temperature-responsive polymeric flocculant. This material exhibits high solubility in wastewater systems, particularly in complex wastewater environments where it undergoes a phase transition. It captures micro- and nano-particles and oily substances through charge neutralization, while the hydrophobic chains provide adsorption, effectively enhancing the capture of hydrophobic particles and demonstrating superior flocculation and removal performance. Furthermore, the dextran-derived polymer enhances the regeneration performance of the flocs through coiling and stretching transformations, significantly improving the overall removal efficiency of pollutants in the wastewater system. Additionally, the dextran-derived polymer, as an unreacted base chain, can intercalate within the guar gum grafted structure, forming a more stable network structure within the system. This enhances bridging and trapping efficiency, resists the physicochemical impacts of complex water bodies, and improves the overall flocculation effect. Attached Figure Description
