Removal of Solid Impurities from Coal Gasification Wastewater by Sand Filtration

Coal gasification wastewater has complex pollutant components and high COD value, and contains a variety of toxic and harmful substances. The treatment of coal gasification wastewater has always been one of the important problems in the development of coal gasification industry in China. In this paper, aiming at the removal of fine particle pollution in coal gasification wastewater, the sand filtration method was used to explore the changes of parameters such as solid content removal, separation accuracy, grade efficiency under the conditions of separating different bed thicknesses. With this separation method, the fine particle pollutants in coal gasification wastewater can be effectively removed by more than 95%, the separation accuracy can reach 0.46 mu m. The operation conditions are optimized for further industrial application.
