Sodium hypochlorite is an effective chemical reagent widely used in the field of sewage treatment, especially in the removal of organic pollutants.1. The principle of sodium hypochlorite to remove organic pollutantsSodium hypochlorite (NaClO) decomposes in water to produce hypochlorous acid (HClO), which is a strong oxidant with broad-spectrum bactericidal and strong oxidizing ability. It can destroy the structure of organic matter through oxidation and convert it into a low-toxic or easy-to-handle form. Specifically, hypochlorous acid can react with unsaturated bonds, aromatic rings, etc. in organic matter, causing the decomposition of organic matter, thereby reducing its concentration and potential harm to the environment.2. Application methods of sodium hypochlorite to remove organic pollutantsStatic addition: Add the sodium hypochlorite solution directly to the appropriate location of the sewage treatment system, such as the sewage inflow or mixing tank. This method is simple and direct, and is suitable for sewage with small treatment volume or low organic concentration.Dynamic dosing: Use a proportional pump or special dosing equipment to accurately control the dosage of sodium hypochlorite according to actual needs and link it with the sewage flow. This method is more accurate and suitable for sewage with large treatment volume or high organic concentration.Mixed dosing: Mix the sodium hypochlorite solution with the sewage in advance, and then send the mixture into the treatment system. This method can ensure that the sodium hypochlorite is in full contact with the organic matter and improve the removal efficiency.Dosage control: Dosage control is a key link in sodium hypochlorite sewage treatment. The dosage should be adjusted according to the specific sewage characteristics, treatment objectives and water quality requirements. Too high or too low dosage may affect the treatment effect. During the dosing process, it is necessary to pay close attention to the water quality of the sewage, the target disinfection effect and the oxidation demand to ensure the accuracy of the dosage.pH adjustment: Under neutral or weakly acidic conditions, the disinfection and oxidation effects of hypochlorous acid are better. Therefore, when adding sodium hypochlorite, it is necessary to pay attention to controlling the pH value within an appropriate range. The pH value of sewage can be adjusted by adding acid or alkali to ensure that sodium hypochlorite can fully exert its oxidizing effect.3. Advantages of sodium hypochlorite in removing organic pollutantsHigh efficiency: sodium hypochlorite has strong oxidizing properties and can quickly oxidize and decompose organic matter to reduce its concentration.Broad spectrum: sodium hypochlorite can kill a variety of bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms, while removing organic odorous substances and improving water quality and odor.Easy to operate: The dosing method of sodium hypochlorite is flexible and diverse, and static dosing, dynamic dosing or mixed dosing can be selected according to actual needs.Environmental protection: sodium hypochlorite does not produce harmful by-products during use and is environmentally friendly.In summary, sodium hypochlorite is an efficient, broad-spectrum, easy-to-operate and environmentally friendly organic pollutant remover. It has broad application prospects in the field of sewage treatment. Through reasonable dosing methods, dosing control and pH value adjustment, the oxidizing effect of sodium hypochlorite can be fully exerted to effectively remove organic pollutants in sewage.
