First, the characteristics of the electronic industry wastewater
Complex components: the electronic industry wastewater mainly from the circuit board etching, cleaning, developing, stripping and other processes, which contains heavy metal ions (such as copper, nickel, lead, cadmium, chromium, etc.), fluoride, ammonia and nitrogen, organic solvents (such as alcohols, ketones, halogenated hydrocarbons, etc.), surfactants, as well as high-concentration acids and alkalis and other pollutants, the composition of the complexity and the concentration of different.
Toxic and harmful: many heavy metal ions and organic pollutants in the electronic industry wastewater are persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic; if not properly treated and discharged directly, they will seriously harm the ecological environment and human health.
pH value fluctuations: The electronics industry's production process uses more acid and alkali chemicals, resulting in a wide range of changes in the pH value of the wastewater, which has made wastewater treatment somewhat difficult.
Second, the electronic industry wastewater treatment process
Physicochemical treatment: First, through the grid, precipitation, air flotation, and other ways to remove suspended solids and large particles in the wastewater. For heavy metal ions, the general use of chemical precipitation or ion exchange methods, such as adding precipitants to form heavy metal hydroxide or sulfide precipitation or the use of ion exchange resin adsorption of heavy metal ions. Acid and alkali wastewater are adjusted to pH values using the neutralization method.
Biological treatment: Biological treatment technologies, such as activated sludge and biological contact oxidation, can degrade organic matter using microbial metabolism in wastewater containing organic pollutants.
Advanced oxidation technology: For some organic pollutants that are difficult to biodegrade, advanced oxidation technology such as Fenton oxidation, ozone oxidation, electrochemical oxidation, etc., can be used to convert organic pollutants into low-toxic or non-toxic small molecules and to improve the biochemistry of wastewater.
Membrane separation technology: Ultrafiltration, reverse osmosis, nanofiltration, and other membrane separation technologies can effectively remove tiny particles, colloids, and dissolved organic matter from wastewater to achieve deep purification.
Resource Recovery and Comprehensive Utilization: Due to the electronics industry, some wastewater contains precious metals, such as copper, gold, silver, etc. Electrolysis, extraction, adsorption, and other methods can be used to recover and utilize these valuable resources.
