Abstract
In order to rapid treatment of first flush rainwater, a new flocculation-magnetic microsphere was prepared. And magnetic microspheres were prepared using the modified Stöber method. Magnetite (Fe3O4)-silica (SiO2) core-shell microspheres have superparamagnetism verified by using XRD, FTIR and VSM analysis. Also, Fe3O4/SiO2 (FS) microspheres have no significant reduction after at least reused five times. The optimal feeding order and conditions were flocculant, magnetic powder and PAM, reaction temperature 25 °C, static sedimentation time 30 min, and pH=7. Under the optimized condition, 62% of COD and 98% of turbidity were removed. Especially, Fe3O4/SiO2 microspheres can effectively adsorb heavy metal ion.
