Description

Treatment method of phenol-containing wastewater
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of wastewater treatment, and particularly relates to a treatment method of phenol-containing wastewater.
Background
The phenol-containing wastewater is wastewater containing phenolic organic matters generated in industrial production such as coking, pharmacy, papermaking, pigments, petrochemical industry and the like, and is one of common industrial wastewater, the phenol-containing wastewater not only belongs to toxic and harmful pollutants, but also is extremely difficult to degrade, and can bring huge pollution and harm to the environment once being discharged without treatment, the content of phenol in factory drainage specified in the comprehensive wastewater discharge standard of China is less than 2.0 mg/L, and the national primary discharge standard is that the content of phenol is less than 0.5 mg/L.
At present, the phenol-containing wastewater is researched more at home and abroad, and the treatment method is various and generally divided into a physical method, a chemical method, a biological degradation method and the like. The biodegradation method has the lowest cost, but the phenolic compounds have toxicity, and the degradation of microorganisms can be inhibited by overhigh concentration, so the method is mainly suitable for the low-concentration phenolic wastewater.
The physical extraction method and the adsorption method are industrially applied more, but the extraction method has the problems of complex process, large investment, high treatment cost and the like, for example, phenolic wastewater is generally alkaline, and phenol removal by extraction needs to be carried out under an acidic condition, so a large amount of acid is needed during extraction, the extraction method needs a certain temperature, secondary pollution is easily generated, and high energy consumption is needed for recovering an extracting agent; the activated carbon adsorption method has the defects of easy saturation and difficult analysis, and has high regeneration cost and easy secondary pollution.
The choice of dephenolizing extractant is of the greatest importance using physical extraction methods. As phenolic hydroxyl is partially hydrolyzed into phenolic oxygen anions in water, the phenolic oxygen anions have larger polarity and larger solubility in water. Therefore, the effect of extracting phenolic substances from wastewater by using a conventional solvent is poor, and even if the pH value of wastewater is adjusted to an acidic range to inhibit the hydrolysis of phenolic hydroxyl groups, complete extraction is difficult. In the published literature, most of the extractants or complex extractants with higher cost are used, such as organic amine as an extractant, wherein the organic amine is a weak base, has a greater affinity with a weakly acidic phenolic hydroxyl group, is beneficial to extracting phenolic substances from a water phase to an organic phase, and the organic quaternary ammonium salt also has a similar effect. Patent application CN 108069484a uses organic amines such as triallylamine, trioctylamine and organic solvents (such as toluene, kerosene) as complex extractant. Patent application CN 109384346a uses eucalyptol as extractant. Patent application CN 108558054a discloses a method for treating high-content phenol-containing wastewater, which comprises the steps of (1) pretreatment: extracting the phenol-containing wastewater for multiple times by using an organic solvent, and reducing the phenol content in the wastewater; (2) adding a catalyst filler into the pretreated wastewater, adding hydrogen peroxide under an acidic condition to catalyze the degradation of the oxidized phenol, and repeating the step for multiple times; (3) soaking the catalyst filler in an organic solvent for regeneration; (4) and (4) recovering the organic solvent in the steps (1) and (3). In the method, the step (2) is repeated for 3-5 times, and the concentration of phenol in the wastewater can meet the requirement of standard discharge. Patent application CN 107399779a discloses a method for treating phenol-containing wastewater, which is to add organic quaternary ammonium salt compounds as phenol removing agents (such as trioctylmethylammonium chloride, trioctylmethylammonium carbonate, trioctylmethylammonium sulfate, trinonylmethylammonium chloride or trinonylmethylammonium carbonate) into phenol-containing wastewater, stir and extract, and stand for layering. The regenerant of the remover is a carbonate-containing salt solution, or a sulfate-containing salt solution, or a chloride-containing salt solution. The treated waste water contains about 10ppm of phenol and does not meet the requirement of standard discharge.
It is also reported in the literature that the aqueous two-phase principle is used to extract contaminants from wastewater, as in the literature: the chemical research and application, 2009,21(7): 1064-. Although the extraction efficiency of the phenols is better, the organic phase recovery problem generally exists in the double aqueous phase treatment process. That is, during the distillation recovery or regeneration treatment of the organic phase, phenolic substances (especially volatile phenol) can be accumulated in the organic phase, which affects the treatment effect, and finally, the wastewater treatment process cannot be continuously carried out.
In summary, when the extracting agent is used for extracting and dephenolizing volatile phenol in the prior art, the extraction dephenolizing rate is low; when the high-efficiency extracting agent is adopted, the cost of the special solvent is high, the solubility of the solvent in water is high, the energy consumption for recovering the solvent is high, the loss is large, and the process cost is high.
