Abstract

A water reclamation method on the basis of integrated use of magnetic resin adsorption and electrosorption is provided. It belongs to the water reclamation field, including the following steps: pump the biotreated effluent into a reactor that is filled with magnetic resin particles so that the chromaticity, organic pollutants, total nitrogen, total phosphorus contained in the wastewater can be effectively reduced; channel the fully reacted mixture into a precipitation tank for separation; part of the separated magnetic resin is pumped back into the reactor while the rest of the separated magnetic resin flows into a regeneration tank; the wastewater treated by magnetic resin adsorption then flows into an electrosorption unit for a desalting process; the remaining organic pollutants and inorganic pollutants are further removed.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A water reclamation method based on integrated use of magnetic resin adsorption and electrosorption, comprising the following steps:
(1) pumping a biotreated effluent for further advanced treatment into a reactor that is filled with magnetic resin particles; maintaining a temperature at 10˜60° C. and making sure the contact reaction between the magnetic resin and the biotreated effluent is carried out;
(2) channelling a wastewater that has undergone sufficient mixing and reaction with the magnetic resin in the reactor into a precipitation tank for precipitation; separating the precipitated magnetic resin from the wastewater through filtration; pumping 60%˜80% of the precipitated magnetic resin back into the reactor and a remainder portion of the precipitated magnetic resin is regenerated into a regeneration tank, wherein the precipitated magnetic resin is regenerated and then sent back to the reactor for reuse;
(3) channelling the wastewater that has undergone the filtration mentioned in step (2) into an electrosorption unit so that a double-layer capacitance generated on a surface of an electrosorptive electrode by operating voltage can be utilized on a basis of electrostatic adsorption to adsorb charged ions contained in the wastewater that has been treated by magnetic resin and undergone the filtration mentioned in step (2); after completion of the whole process of wastewater treatment, turning off the operating voltage, channeling 2-5 L tap water into the electrosorption unit to desorb the electrode under a short circuit condition.

2. The water reclamation method based on integrated use of magnetic resin adsorption and electrosorption as defined in claim 1 , wherein the magnetic resin used in said step (1) is magnetic strong base anion exchange resin with a polyacrylic matrix.

3. The water reclamation method based on integrated use of magnetic resin adsorption and electrosorption as defined in said claim 1 , wherein in step (1) the volume ratio between said magnetic resin and the wastewater is 1:100˜300.

4. The water reclamation method based on integrated use of magnetic resin adsorption and electrosorption as defined in claim 1 , wherein in said step (1) a hydraulic retention time of the wastewater within the resin reactor is 10˜60 min, and a liquid-solid contact is realized through mechanical or pneumatic stirring.

5. The water reclamation method based on integrated use of magnetic resin adsorption and electrosorption as defined in claim 1 , wherein in said step (2), 5%˜20% by mass NaCl solution is added as regeneration agent into the regeneration tank, and the wastewater generated in a resin desorption process is then treated with coagulation or membrane techniques.

6. The water reclamation method based on integrated use of magnetic resin adsorption and electrosorption as defined in claim 1 , wherein in said step (3) the electrode of the electrosorption unit is made from activated carbon, carbon black and polytetrafluoroethylene in the ratio of 5-16:2-3:2.

7. The water reclamation method based on integrated use of magnetic resin adsorption and electrosorption as defined in claim 6 , wherein in said step (3) the electrode is supplied with an operating voltage of 1.5˜2.0 v.

8. The water reclamation method based on integrated use of magnetic resin adsorption and electrosorption as defined in claim 5 , wherein a concentration of major quality indicators in the original biotreated effluent is: a critical chemical oxygen demand (CODcr) lower than 150 ppm, a chromaticity lower than 100°, and a total salt lower than 5000 ppm.
