Abstract
In this study, wet oxidation of an industrial high concentration caprolactam organic wastewater using oxygen gas as an oxidant was investigated. Different experiments were conducted to discuss the effects of the reaction temperature, time, the initial oxygen pressure and dilution ration of raw wastewater, using a batch reactor with COD removal rate as a standard for assessing. Results show that the highest removal rate of COD, 76.6%, was obtained at 250 °C for 30 min with the oxygen pressure 1.7 MPa and dilution ration 10. The biodegradability of the wastewater improved greatly after the wet oxidation process. These results illustrated that wet oxidation with oxygen gas as an oxidant displayed effectively for the pretreatment of high concentration caprolactam organic wastewater.
