Experimental Study On A Closed-Cycle Humidification And Dehumidification System For Treating Wastewater Containing High Concentrations Of Inorganic Salts And Organic Matter

Industrial wastewater contains high concentrations of inorganic salts and organic matter. This experiment studied a system for treating wastewater containing high concentrations of inorganic salts and organic matter. The setup consists of a closed-cycle humidification and dehumidification system and a filter press. Chemical wastewater was used as the treatment solution, and the treatment performance of the system was tested and analyzed. The system effectively reduced the chemical oxygen demand (COD), electric conductivity (EC), total nitrogen (TN), and ammonia nitrogen (NH4-N) in the wastewater and, at the same time, dehydrated sludge was obtained through a filter press. The system maintains a stable removal rate of each index (COD, EC, TN, and NH4-N) in wastewater and can remove inorganic salts and organic matter from wastewater. The system can successfully treat industrial wastewater containing high concentrations of inorganic salts and organic matter.
