Abstract

Furfural production generates wastewater characterized by high concentration, strong acidity, and poor biodegradability, necessitating treatment before discharge. The Fenton process, known for its cost-effectiveness, is widely used for industrial wastewater treatment. However, it has limitations such as a narrow pH operating range and significant secondary pollution. To optimize this, researchers have explored combining Fenton with other processes, yet few have studied its synergy with O₃. This study investigates the advantages of O₃/Fenton coupling in treating furfural wastewater, comparing the capabilities of O₃, O₃/H₂O₂, Fenton, and O₃/Fenton processes. Results show that ozone-Fenton coupling exhibits superior industrial treatment performance. Post-treatment, the wastewater's B/C ratio reached 0.43, TOC removal rate was 33.6%, and ozone utilization efficiency was 74.6%, surpassing other methods. UV absorption spectra analysis indicated enhanced degradation of aromatic compounds, transforming them into smaller organic molecules. This study highlights ozone-Fenton coupling as a low-cost, effective enhancement for furfural wastewater treatment, offering significant guidance for future research in this field.

臭氧-芬顿耦合强化法处理糠醛废水的实验研究

糠醛生产产生的废水具有高浓度、强酸性和生物降解性差的特点，需要在排放前进行处理。Fenton 工艺以其成本效益著称，被广泛用于工业废水处理。然而，它也有其局限性，如 pH 值操作范围窄和二次污染严重。为了优化这一问题，研究人员探索了 Fenton 与其他工艺的结合，但很少有人研究它与 O3 的协同作用。本研究通过比较 O3、O3/H2O2、Fenton 和 O3/Fenton 工艺的能力，探讨了 O3/Fenton 联用在处理糠醛废水中的优势。结果表明，臭氧-芬顿耦合工艺具有更优越的工业处理性能。处理后，废水的 B/C 比达到 0.43，TOC 去除率为 33.6%，臭氧利用率为 74.6%，超过了其他方法。紫外吸收光谱分析表明，芳香族化合物的降解能力增强，并转化为更小的有机分子。这项研究强调了臭氧-Fenton 耦合技术是一种低成本、有效的糠醛废水处理增强技术，为该领域的未来研究提供了重要指导。
