Study on the Treatment of Wastewater from Bio-CMP Process of Poplar Heartwood by Flocculation Combined with Biological Aeration Filter
In this study,poplar heart-wood were pretreated with the white-rot fungus Trametes sp.48424.The integrated wastewater generat-ed during chemical-mechanical pulping was treated by combining flocculation and precipitation with a biological aeration filter(BAF),to study the effect of wastewater reuse on biochemical-mechanical pulping and BAF,and to explore the feasibility of reuse of treated wastewater.The results showed that the use of white-rot fungus pretreatment technology could offset the CODCr produced by adding NaOH of 2%(relative to raw material oven dry weight).The maximum removal rate of CODCr after treatment was 49.9%.the maximum removal rate of CODCr treated by BAF was up to 91.8%.The effluent CODCr was reduced to 39.8 mg/L,which met the standards for reuse and discharge of pulping wastewa-ter.Wastewater reuse would reduce the overall efficiency of the BAF,and the treated wastewater was reused in the pulping system,which would also result in a certain impact on the paper performance.After reuse once,the effluent CODCr rised to 76.3 mg/L,so the treated waste-water could only be reused once.
