Abstract

The polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) wastewater was pretreated by the process of flocculation-Fenton oxidation. Raw wastewater was treated by the different flocculants first. The results showed that when the flocculant FeSO4 was used, its effect was better than Fe2(SO4)3 and PAC, the dosage of it was 10g/L, under which COD removal efficiency reached 61.72%. The effects of FeSO4 and H2O2 addition and pH on treatment effect were studied in the follow-up Fenton oxidation. The results showed that when the addition of FeSO4 was 20g/L, the dosage of H2O2 was 250mL/L, pH was 4, the removal efficiency of COD reached over 90%. The experiments of fractionated adding the reagents showed that the removal rate of COD was significantly higher in the situation of fractionated adding FeSO4 required in the flocculation and Fenton oxidation process than one-time added. The removal rate of COD changed little when the H2O2 fractionated addition in the process of Fenton oxidation.
