Description

Method for recovering waste liquid from washing polyester fabric Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of waste fabric recycling and relates to a method for recycling polyester fabric elution waste liquid. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of my country's textile industry, the recycling and reuse of polyester fabrics has gradually received attention from the society. Using an eluent to extract dyes from colored polyester fabrics to decolorize polyester fabrics is a key process in the recycling and utilization of polyester fabrics. Since commonly used polyester fabric dyes are azo dyes and anthraquinone dyes, the theoretical principle of the current polyester fabric decolorization process is to use the principle of similar solubility parameters, the principle of similar polarity compatibility, or the principle of solvation to select eluents with similar chemical properties to azo and anthraquinones, so that the dyes are separated from the polyester fabric and then merged with the eluent.

[0003] Based on the aforementioned decolorization principle, after colored polyester fabric is decolorized with a detergent, a waste polyester elution solution containing azo or anthraquinone dyes will inevitably be produced. These dyes still retain their dyeing properties. Therefore, reusing this waste polyester elution solution can easily cause cross-dyeing, while directly discharging it can cause environmental pollution and waste resources.

[0004] Therefore, it is urgent to provide a method for treating polyester fabric elution wastewater to separate the azo or anthraquinone substances and the eluent contained therein, that is, to separate the "purified" eluent and realize the reuse of the eluent.

[0005] Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides a method for recovering polyester fabric elution wastewater. The method involves reacting azo or anthraquinone dyes extracted from polyester fabric and dissolved in the polyester fabric elution wastewater with a catalyst to form a precipitate, which is then separated from the eluent, thereby achieving the purpose of recycling the polyester fabric elution wastewater. To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention employs the following technical solutions:

[0007] A method for recovering polyester fabric elution waste liquid comprises mixing the polyester fabric elution waste liquid with a catalyst, performing a dye curing reaction under a hydrogen atmosphere, and separating the resulting liquid to obtain a polyester fabric elution agent.

[0008] The catalyst is generated by in-situ reaction of a metal salt compound with an organic ligand containing N (nitrogen element) or P (phosphorus element);

[0009] Polyester fabric refers to waste polyester fabric, which includes pre-consumer waste fabric (waste scraps, waste silk, waste yarn, waste blocks, etc.) and post-consumer old fabric (old clothing such as old clothes, old uniforms, old school uniforms, old work, old home textiles such as bed sheets, quilt covers, curtains, industrial textiles, etc.); polyester involves pure polyester, polyester-cotton, polyester-nylon, polyester-spandex and polyester-blend products, etc., of which the polyester mass accounts for 65% to 99%.

[0010] Further, the metal salt compound includes Fe(OAc)2, FeCl2, Co(OAc)2, CoCl2, Ni(OAc)2, NiCl2, Cu(OAc)2 or CuCl;

[0011] Among them, OAc group refers to acetoxy or acetate, which is CH3COO - Abbreviation for group.

[0012] Furthermore, the organic ligand containing N or P includes

[0013] Furthermore, the molar ratio of the metal salt compound to the organic ligand containing N or P in the catalyst is 1:1.5-2.

[0014] Furthermore, the hydrogen atmosphere condition is to introduce 10 to 20 atm (standard atmospheric pressure) of hydrogen and react at 100 to 110° C. for 10 to 60 minutes.

[0015] Furthermore, the weight ratio of the catalyst to the polyester fabric elution waste liquid is 0.1wt% to 1wt%:1.

[0016] Furthermore, the polyester fabric elution waste liquid is a liquid obtained by mixing polyester fabric with an eluent and eluting the mixture;

[0017] The weight ratio of the polyester fabric to the eluting agent is 1:10-20.

[0018] Furthermore, the eluent is at least one of ethylene glycol, N,N-dimethylformamide and dimethyl sulfoxide.

[0019] Furthermore, the elution condition is heating at 120-150° C. for 10-30 minutes.

[0020] The present invention also provides an application of a method for recovering polyester fabric elution waste liquid, which is used for recovering and reusing polyester fabric elution waste liquid containing azo dyes and anthraquinone dyes.

[0021] The principle of the present invention is:

[0022] The present invention utilizes the CH bond of the chromogenic group of the dye to undergo a cross-coupling reaction in the presence of a catalyst to generate a new non-colorogenic group. Simultaneously, the dye undergoes a polymerization reaction to generate a cross-linked polymer, polymerizing small molecules into macromolecules, which are precipitated from the polyester fabric elution waste liquid containing a decolorizing agent, thereby realizing the separation of the dye and the eluent.

[0023] The specific reaction principle is as follows:

[0024] The hydrogen used in the present invention reduces the catalyst to a low-valent metal catalytic active center M;

[0025] For azo dyes: The N=N double bond of the dye is used to guide the oxidation-addition reaction between the low-valent metal catalytic active center M and the aromatic hydrocarbon C-H bond to form a metal-containing heterocyclic compound. Under heating conditions, the metal-containing heterocyclic compound further undergoes a series of complex chemical reactions including C-C coupling and N=N bond reduction to form a complex polymer. The reaction is as follows:

[0026] For anthraquinone dyes: Using the guiding effect of the C=O carbonyl group of the dye, an oxidation-addition reaction similar to the above occurs to generate a complex polymer. The reaction is as follows:

[0027] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the present invention has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art:

[0028] (1) In the method for recovering polyester fabric elution waste liquid proposed by the present invention, a catalyst generated in situ by a metal salt compound and an organic ligand containing N or P can react with the chromophore of the dye to form a colorless group. At the same time, the dye also undergoes polymerization to form a cross-linked polymer, which is precipitated from the polyester fabric elution waste liquid. This achieves the purpose of separating the dye extracted from the polyester fabric and dissolved in the polyester fabric elution waste liquid from the eluent, realizes the rapid separation of the dye and the eluent, and the recycling of the eluent, which has important economic value and environmental protection significance.

[0029] (2) The method for recovering polyester fabric elution waste liquid proposed by the present invention can effectively remove azo dyes and anthraquinone dyes from the polyester fabric elution waste liquid, and the decolorization rate of the recovered eluent on polyester fabric reaches 99%;

[0030] (3) The method for recovering waste liquid from polyester fabric washing proposed in the present invention can be used for decolorizing waste polyester fabrics of consumer products such as automobile interiors, home textiles, clothing, building materials and industrial products.

The K / S value-wavelength graph of the experimental group is shown in Figure 1, and the K / S value-wavelength graph of the control group is shown in Figure 2. The decolorization rate was calculated as follows: △K / S = (K / S value before decolorization - K / S value after decolorization) / K / S value before decolorization × 100%
