Abstract:

A continuous ultrasonic reactor coupling with an aerated bio-packing tower was adopted to treat the firstorder dyeing effluent, and the removals of chemical oxygen demand (CODcr) and ehroma with different combined technologies were then analyzed and compared. The results show that the combined technology of biotreatment- ( ultrasonic + active carbon) -biotreatment is most effective in the treatment of dyeing effluent, and that, after being sequentially processed with a biological treatment for 7 h, an ultrasonic + active carbon treatment combining four ultrasonic frequencies of 60, 80, 100 and 125 kHz for 2h, and a biological re-treatment for 20h, the effluent with an initial CODcr of 600 - 1000 mg/L and an initial chroma of 320 meets the first-grade discharge standard of GB 4287-- 1992, with a COOcr removal of about 90% and a chroma removal of about 95%
