Abstract

Abstract. One of the most important environmental problems is the purification of industrial wastewater from heavy metal ions. Various methods are used to solve this problem: chemical, physico-chemical, sorption, but the most promising method for cleaning industrial wastewater containing heavy metal ions, namely copper, nickel and zinc, is the galvanocoagulation method. However, the literature does not sufficiently cover the processes of cementation of heavy metals on cathode loading. A physico-chemical approach to this process is necessary to confirm the process of separation of heavy metal ions from wastewater in the form of sediment and the creation of new industrial wastewater treatment schemes. The composition of the loading is essential in galvanocoagulation neutralization, therefore, in order to determine the effect of the type of active loading, a carbon mineral sorbent (SGN) obtained from ores of cryptocrystalline graphite (Noginsky deposit of the Krasnoyarsk Territory) was used. The studies were carried out in a galvanocoagulation module by passing wastewater through a loading consisting of a mixture of iron shavings and granules of carbon mineral sorbent based on ores of cryptocrystalline graphite (SGN). At the same time, the air dispersed in the lower part of the device was bubbled through the loading. As a result of the operation of the Fe-SGN short-circuited galvanic cell, iron scrap was dissolved and its intensive oxidation to Fe3+ by air oxygen. The article considers the mechanism of galvanocoagulation neutralization of wastewater based on thermodynamic analysis of redox reactions occurring during galvanocoagulation wastewater treatment.
 Subject of the study: both model and real wastewater from the production of electroplating coatings containing copper, zinc and nickel ions with the following concentrations were used: =60 mg/dm3; =15 mg/dm3; =20 mg/dm3
 Materials and methods: galvanocoagulation neutralization using a short-circuited Fe-SGN galvanic cell (carbon mineral sorbent)
 Results: the physico-chemical patterns of the galvanocoagulation process of wastewater treatment have been studied and the thermodynamic parameters of heavy metal ion reduction reactions have been determined
 Conclusions. It has been experimentally established that it is possible to intensify the process of galvanocoagulation of wastewater containing heavy metal ions by using a carbon mineral sorbent as a cathode loading, which reduces the processing time with a high purification effect and a difficult-to-dissolve precipitate is formed.
