A coagulation-anaerobic hydrolysis-aeration process was used to treat the waste cutting fluid which was discharged from a metalworking plant, and the operating conditions of each unit were optimized in this paper. The results showed that 9 g/L polyaluminum chloride and 0.3 g/L cationic polyacrylamide were added in the coagulation stage, the TOC was removed by 78.94% and the BOD5/COD of the waste cutting fluid increased from 0.046 to 0.312 before and after coagulation; The coagulation effluent was further treated by anaerobic hydrolysis-aeration, and the TOC removal efficiencies of the biological process and the whole chemical-biological process were 92.77% and 98.48% respectively; Adding glucose as a cosubstrate into the anaerobic hydrolysis can improve the TOC removal efficiency, when the TOC content ratio of coagulation effluent to glucose solution was 7:3, the TOC removal efficiencies of the biological process and the chemical-biological process reached 97.16% and 99.40%, and the total oil removal efficiency of the whole process reached 99.99%; The effluent quality parameters of the coagulation-anaerobic hydrolysis (with cosubstrate glucose)-aeration process met the Class C limits specified in the Wastewater Quality Standards for Discharge to Municipal Sewers (GB/T 31962-2015); that is, the effluent COD, TN, TP and total oil were below 300 mg/L, 25 mg/L, 5 mg/L and 110 mg/L respectively, and the effluent pH was between 6.5–9.5.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
