Effects of addition sequence and rapid mixing conditions on use of dual coagulants.

The performance of dual coagulants in clay suspension was investigated in this study using aluminium chloride and the cationic polymer as coagulants. According to the study results, the performance of dual coagulants was affected by dosage of aluminium chloride. Beneficial effect by use of dual coagulants were only noted when aluminium chloride was underdosed. The addition sequence of coagulants was important for the performance of dual coagulants. Simultaneous addition resulted in the best performance, while addition of the polymer first resulted in the worst performance. Addition of aluminium chloride first resulted in the similar performance as single use of aluminium chloride. Although sulphate ion improved the floc characteristics, similar results were obtained. The effectiveness of rapid mixing depended on dosage of aluminium chloride. Extending rapid mixing (6 min) was beneficial when aluminium chloride was underdosed so that coagulation occurred at the combination region. However, such benefit was not observed at the optimum condition, which belonged to the sweep coagulation region. Different floc formation caused the difference. Extended rapid mixing would be beneficial when collision between clay particles and Al(III) was necessary. However, such benefit would disappear at the optimum condition because rapid mixing could break up the floc already formed.     

给水厂污泥减量化及性能改善研究

随着给水厂排泥水直排河道的方法不再可行,水处理过程中产生的污泥量和污泥性能将直接影响整个水厂的造价及运行费用。试验在水处理工艺流程相同的条件下,分别投加硫酸铝、氯化铁、聚铝(PAC)、聚铁(PFS)、聚铝铁(PAFC)、高效聚双酸铝铁(PAFCS)等不同混凝剂,以达到减少絮凝沉淀后排泥水的污泥量及改善排泥水的沉降和脱水性能的效果,并探讨了其作用机理。     

强化混凝技术处理南淝河污染水的效果

选用聚合氯化铁(PFC)、聚合硫酸铁(PFS)、聚合氯化铝(PAC)和聚合氯化铝铁(PAFC)作为混凝剂;选用阳离子型聚丙烯酰胺(CPAM)、阴离子型聚丙烯酰胺(APAM)和非离子型聚丙烯酰胺(NPAM)作为助凝剂,通过室内试验对比研究强化混凝技术中多种混凝剂单用及其和助凝剂联用对南淝河污染水的除浊和去污效果,并用于南淝河现场构建的混凝沉淀系统。结果表明,4种混凝剂单用时,PAFC对浊度、TP去除效果最优,对CODMn有良好的去除效果,且不影响原水的p H值,而PFC和PFS单用时可明显降低原水p H值,4种混凝剂单用时对TN均没有明显去除效果;PAFC与CPAM联用时对浊度的去除效果最佳,明显优于PAFC与APAM和NPAM联用和PAFC单用的效果;混凝剂与CPAM联用提高了其除浊和去除TP的能力,但不能明显改善其去除CODMn的效果,对原水p H和TN的影响与单用时相同。选取"PAFC+CPAM"作为南淝河示范工程的混凝剂和助凝剂,现场混凝沉淀出水水质稳定,浊度和TP的去除效果较好,去除率分别达到90%和80%,对CODMn的去除率约为52%,而对TN的去除效果有限,去除率约为22.4%。     

Influence of type and dose of coagulants on effectiveness of PAH removal in coagulation water treatment

This study evaluated the influence of the type and dose of coagulants on the removal of 16 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the coagulation process. The effects of coagulant type and dose in reducing water turbidity, colour, and the total content of organic compounds were also assessed. The surface water samples had the turbidity of 9.3–11.2 NTU and colour of 25–35 mg/L. The content of organic compounds determined with total organic carbon (TOC) was 9.2–12.5 mg/L. For the coagulation process, pre-hydrolyzed polyaluminium chloride (PACl) coagulants with basicity values of 41%, 65%, and 85% were used. This shows that water purification performance increased as the basicity of the coagulant increased. When the coagulant with the highest basicity and a dose of 3 mg Al per litre was used, a removal efficiency of 83% in the concentration of benzo(a)pyrene was achieved, and efficiencies for the remaining 15 PAHs ranged from 80% to 91%. These values were 4%–9% higher than those achieved using other coagulants. The removal efficiencies of turbidity, colour, and TOC were 80%, 60%, and 35%, respectively. The water purification performance, including PAH removal, was improved with the increased coagulant dose. Increasing the coagulant dose had more pronounced effects on PAH removal than on the reduction of turbidity and TOC.     

The transformation of aluminium species in the processes of coagulation, sedimentation and filtration.

The aluminium toxicity is closely related to aluminium species. In this work aluminium was fractionated into seven forms: Al(T), Al(Sus), Al(C + S), Al(S), Al(C), Al(O) and Al(I). Four Al-based coagulants and simulated raw water were used in the laboratory to investigate the aluminium transformation in coagulation, sedimentation and filtration processes. It is the use of Al-based coagulants that contributes more to the increase of the residual aluminium for the low-turbidity raw water, while the Al-based coagulants, especially the polymeric aluminium coagulants, work to remove the aluminium from the high-turbidity raw water. In the case of traditional coagulants, the increase of the turbidity or the dissolved organic carbon (DOC) concentration in the raw water results in a high concentration of Al(C + S). The removal rate of aluminium species in the filtration process is not only related to its size: RAl(Sus) > RAl(C+S), RAl(C) > RAl(S), but also to the physicochemical properties of aluminium species and filter. For the kaolin-polyaluminium chloride system, a lower removal rate of aluminium species results is due to the complexation of humic acid and aluminium species.     

新型中置式高密度沉淀池优化投药试验研究

通过小试和生产性试验对新型中置式高密度沉淀池的投药系统(包括回流污泥、混凝剂及助凝剂PAM的投加)进行了详细研究.小试研究表明回流污泥和混凝剂投加量的增大降低了上清液浊度,PAM的投加略微降低了上清液出水浊度,但影响不大.生产性试验研究结果表明,实际生产运行中可灵活利用回流污泥来提高絮凝效果,在合理的范围内回流污泥投加量越大,絮凝效果越好;沉淀池随着混凝剂投加量的增大,出水浊度逐渐降低,同时,不同的回流污泥投加量条件下混凝剂投加对沉淀池出水浊度的影响表现出不同特性;增大PAM投加量对直接提高沉淀池的絮凝效果以及降低出水浊度的贡献不明显,PAM投加量的增大间接引起回流污泥投加量变大是导致出水浊度变小的原因.     

Treatment of biologically treated leachate by oxidation and coagulation

This work aims to investigate removal efficiency of oxidation and coagulation/flocculation processes, to provide an effective method for the treatment of biologically pre-treated leachate. Leachate containing 985 mg L(-1) COD was treated by using three treatment schemes, i.e. oxidation, coagulation/flocculation and the combined process of coagulation/flocculation followed by oxidation. The application of single oxidation resulted in the effective removal of COD and color up to 80.4 and 83.2%, respectively. However, residual COD values lower than 200 mg L(-1) could only be achieved under intensive experimental conditions (high dosage of Ca(ClO)(2) and prolonged oxidation time). Coagulation/flocculation yielded residual COD values higher than 200 mg L(-1) even at the optimum coagulation conditions. The combined treatment by coagulation/flocculation followed by oxidation yielded final COD lower than 100 mg L(-1) at the following conditions: pre-coagulation with 250 mg L(-1) PFS (poly-ferric sulfate) and over 30-min post-oxidation, or pre-coagulation with 300 mg L(-1) PFS and over 20-min post-oxidation. Hence, pre-coagulation with PFS followed by oxidation with Ca(ClO)(2) was recommended for advanced treatment of biologically treated leachate.     

Temperature effects on flocculation, using different coagulants.

Temperature is known to affect flocculation and filter performance. Jar tests have been conducted in the laboratory, using a photometric dispersion analyser (PDA) to assess the effects of temperature on floc formation, breakage and reformation. Alum, ferric sulphate and three polyaluminium chloride (PACI) coagulants have been investigated for temperatures ranging between 6 and 29 degrees C for a suspension of kaolin clay in London tap water. Results confirm that floc formation is slower at lower temperatures for all coagulants. A commercial PACl product, PAX XL 19, produces the largest flocs for all temperatures; and alum the smallest. Increasing the shear rate results in floc breakage in all cases and the flocs never reform to their original size. This effect is most notable for temperatures around 15 degrees C. Breakage, in terms of floc size reduction, is greater for higher temperatures, suggesting a weaker floc. Recovery after increased shear is greater at lower temperatures implying that floc break-up is more reversible for lower temperatures.     

The effectiveness of humic acids coagulation with the use of cationic polyacrylamides

The chemical coagulation process is a popular method for eliminating the precursors of disinfection by-products. This study presents the results of a laboratory experiment which investigates the use of cationic polyacrylamide copolymers (CPAMs) as primary coagulants in the purification of solutions containing humic acids (HA). A number of polymers with various molecular weight and charge density were tested. The optimal doses were determined by colloidal titration. The effectiveness of coagulation-flocculation was determined by jar test method. The post-coagulation suspension was separated by filtration through cellulose filter paper. The experiment showed that charge neutralization destabilizes organic colloidal particles. An inversely proportional relationship was observed between the optimal dose and polymer charge density. The effectiveness of UV254 reduction (52-81%) and colour removal (51-88%) was determined by the effectiveness of filtration in removing post-coagulation turbidity, as well as by the type of applied polymer. The results of the study suggest that the use of CPAMs with high charge density and low molecular weight enables effective removal of humic acids from water in the coagulation and filtration process.     

Removal of boron (B) from waste liquors.

This paper explores the use of electrocoagulation to remove boron from waste effluent in comparison with alum coagulation. In treating model test wastes, greater boron removals were achieved with electrocoagulation at low doses than conventional alum coagulation when reaction was undertaken for the same conditions (pH 8.5, and initial boron concentration was 500 mg/L). Al electrocoagulation can achieve good boron removal performance (68.3%) at a dose of 2.1 (as molar ratio of Al:B, and for current density of 62.1 A/m2), while alum coagulation can only achieve the maximum boron removal of 56% at a dose of 2.4. Also, Al electrocoagulation can remove 15-20% more boron than alum coagulation for the same dose compared in the treatment of both model test wastes and industry effluent. The estimation of running costs shows that to achieve 75% boron removal from industry waste effluent, i.e. removing 150 g of boron from 1 m3 of effluent, electrocoagulation was 6.2 times cheaper than alum coagulation. The economic advantage of electrocoagulation in the treatment of boron-containing waste effluent is thus significant.     

Colloidal silica removal in coagulation processes for wastewater reuse in a high-tech industrial park.

Four experiments of coagulation and flocculation were conducted to investigate the characteristics of colloidal silica removal in a high-tech industrial wastewater treatment plant for reclamation and reuse of the effluent. Experimental results illustrated that poly-aluminium chloride (PACl) showed higher performances on colloidal silica removal than alum. Interestingly, the two coagulants demonstrated the same capacity on silica removal. The specific silica removal capacity was approximately 0.135 mg SiO2/mg Al2O3 when the dosage of coagulants was in the range 30-150 mg/L Al2O3. In addition, the silica was reduced significantly at the condition of pH above 8. Experimental data implied that precipitation of aluminium flocs was the major mechanism for colloid silica removal in PACl and alum coagulation, besides, charge adsorption was also important for improving removal efficiency. Moreover, the addition of polyacrylic acid (PAA) as a flocculant could slightly advance silica removal in the PACl coagulation. The combined PACl/PAA/flocs coagulation was effective for the removal of colloidal silica, soluble COD, and turbidity and also suitable as a pretreatment unit in wastewater reclamation and reuse processes.     

Optimization of Fenton's reagent coupled to Dissolved Air Flotation to remove cyanobacterial odorous metabolites and suspended solids from raw surface water

Ferrous salts are commonly used as coagulants in Water Treatment Plants (WTPs). When these salts are combined with hydrogen peroxide in acidic conditions - besides coagulation - an additional Advanced Oxidation Process (Fenton's reagent) can take place. Using a response surface methodology, this paper presents the optimization of a novel treatment system constituted by Fenton's reagent (FE) and Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) for removing 2-Methylisoborneol (MIB), geosmin and Total Suspended Solids (TSS) from raw water. FE was proven able to remove completely both micro pollutants found in the influent of a drinking water treatment plant. Moreover, higher clarification rate was achieved by coupling FE-DAF with respect FE-Sedimentation.     

聚合铝盐混凝剂混凝除藻机理与强化除藻措施

针对微污染水处理中藻细胞的去除,研究聚合氯化铝形态分布对混凝除藻效率的影响。结果表明,混凝剂水解产物中,中等聚合物含量影响混凝过程中藻细胞去除率。中等聚合物含量越大,藻细胞去除率越高;在一定条件下,藻细胞去除率与中等聚合物含量线性相关,混凝出水中残铝含量与单体和低聚物含量线性相关。对聚合氯化铝,中等聚合物含量与碱化度线性相关。适量加聚磷酸根、硅酸根可以提高混凝除藻效率,并能显著降低混凝出水中残铝含量,所阐述的混凝除藻机理可以较好地解释实验现象。     

Flocculation morphology: effect of particulate shape and coagulant species on flocculation.

Flocculation morphology is a new concept that investigates the morphological characteristics of colloidal particles and coagulants in water during the flocculation process, and the influence that these characteristics have on flocculation process efficiency. This paper is a summary of advances in research on this topic over several years. Morphological characteristics of colloids in natural waters and different kinds of hydrolysed coagulants are investigated, and their effect on colloid stability, flocculation kinetics and efficiency is analysed. It is confirmed that the traditional theory has some deviations in coagulation of nonspherical particles, and these deviations are revised by the flocculation morphology model. Flocculation morphology can not only promote research about flocculation theory, but also instruct the production, application and flocculation control. It can be foreseen that more progress will be made in research and application of flocculation morphology in the near future.     

常规混凝沉淀工艺对阴离子表面活性剂的去除研究

随着阴离子表面活性剂(LAS)在民用和工业上的广泛应用,由此带来的水污染问题也日益加剧,对供水安全造成了很大威胁。针对目前大部分水厂仍采用混凝沉淀常规水处理工艺,考察了常规混凝沉淀工艺对LAS的去除效果。以Al2(SO4)3,PAC,FeCl3,PFS为混凝剂,非离子PAM为助凝剂进行了试验,结果表明混凝沉淀对LAS有一定的去除效果,而且有机物和LAS的去除有一定相关关系。但浊度与LAS的去除相关性较差。试验条件下对于LAS去除最佳混凝方案是投加量为40 mg/L的FeCl3。相同水质条件下铁盐混凝剂在除浊、除有机物和除LAS方面优于铝盐混凝剂。pH和水温对LAS的去除有一定影响,较低的pH和较高的水温均有利于LAS的去除。     

九龙江流域水厂生产废水回用条件的初步研究

以九龙江原水为研究对象,从改善低浊水混凝条件优化净水工艺角度,对生产废水的回用条件和作用规律进行了研究。研究认为:回用具有适当含固率的生产废水可以改善水处理过程的混凝条件,节省投药量,节药率一般为10%～40%;存在改善混凝条件、节省投药量的最佳含固率和最佳混合水浊度范围,最佳含固率为0.1%～0.7%,最佳混合水浊度为60～400NTU;原水浊度是显著影响最佳含固率的因素。当原水浊度小于60NTU时,最佳含固率随原水浊度的升高而增加,当原水浊度大于60NTU时.最佳含固率随原水浊度的升高而降低,最佳混合水浊度表现出相同的规律;在生产过程中,建议以最佳混合水浊度控制生产废水的回用。     

PDM复合混凝剂处理春季嘉陵江水的应用研究

通过小试考察了聚二甲基二烯丙基氯化铵(PDM)复配硫酸铝(AS)、氯化高铁(FC)、聚氯化铝(PAC)和聚硫酸铁(PFS)以及单独采用PAC处理某水厂春季嘉陵江水源水的效果,选择了复配比例为1:100的PAC-PDM复合混凝剂处理该时期原水。通过对矾花与沉降性能的研究,发现复配比例越低,投药量越少,矾花粒径越小。当矾花粒径达到0.5 mm以上时,矾花的沉降性能较好,且矾花的沉降性能还与矾花的密实程度有很大关系。通过对PAC和PAC-PDM连续生产对比试验研究,在出厂水满足《生活饮用水卫生标准》(GB 5749—2006)要求的情况下,PAC-PDM和PAC的平均投药量分别约为8mg/L和14.3mg/L,在春季该水厂采用PAC-PDM处理嘉陵江原水较单独采用PAC约节省30%混凝剂费用。     

Boosting nitrification by membrane-attached biofilm.

Nitrification is a key step for reliable biological nitrogen removal. In order to enhance nitrification in the activated sludge (AS) process, membrane-attached biofilm (MAB) was incorporated in a conventional activated sludge tank. Simultaneous organic carbon removal and nitrification of the MAB incorporated activated sludge (AS + MAB) process was investigated with continuous wastewater treatment. The effluent TOC concentration of AS and the AS + MAB processes were about 6.3 mg/L and 7.9 mg/L, respectively. The TOC removal efficiency of both AS and AS + MAB were above 95% during the wastewater treatment, indicating excellent organic carbon removal performance in both processes. Little nitrification occurred in the AS process. On the contrary, successful nitrification was obtained with the AS + MAB process with nitrification efficiency of about 90%. The volumetric and surface nitrification rates were about 0.14 g/Ld and 6.5 g/m2d, respectively. The results clearly demonstrated that nitrification in the conventional AS process was boosted by MAB. Furthermore, the microfaunal population in the AS + MAB process was different from that in the AS process. The high concentration of rotifers in the AS + MAB process was expected to decrease the generation of excess sludge in the process.     

不同混凝剂改善超滤膜通量的效果

采用凝胶色谱考察黄浦江原水的相对分子质量分布以及比较3种混凝剂作为预处理去除有机物改善通量的效果.研究表明,黄浦江原水按照相对分子质量的大小可分为3部分.第一部分由相对分子质量在25 000的亲水性有机物构成;第二部分由相对分子质量在3 000～6 000的有机物所构成,这部分的有机物主要为腐殖酸和富里酸所组成;第三部分由相对分子质量在500左右的亲水性有机物构成.尽管相对分子质量较大的亲水性有机物所占比例较小,但对超滤膜通量的下降有较大的影响.采用混凝作为超滤膜的预处理,可以减缓通量的下降.不同的混凝剂,对通量改善的效果不同.试验结果表明,聚氯化铝较三氯化铁和聚硅硫酸铝,能更有效改善通量,这是由于聚氯化铝可有效去除大分子的亲水性有机物的缘故.
