Abstract:The deep removal of complex nickel from wastewater by using magnetic flocculation coupled with an independent synthetic highly-efficient heavy metal chelating agent EDTC was investigated. CA-Ni (citric acid, CA), TA-Ni (tartaric acid, TA) and SP-Ni (pyrophosphate, SP) were dissolved in deionized water as the simulated wastewater. Important investigated parameters included EDTC dosage, magnetic seeding dosage, initial pH and sedimentation time. The magnetic flocculation mechanism involved in the reaction was also explored. Residual Ni concentration could be less than 0.1mg/L from the initial concentration of 50mg/L, under the conditions of 100mg/L magnetic seeds (350r/min, 2min), MEDTC/MNi=10 (250r/min, 2min), PAM 1mg/L (50r/min,3min) and 5min sedimentation time with unregulated pH. The results of Zeta potential illustrated the magnetic seeds were firmly combined with flocs when pH=6.5~7.5, and it was the same with magnetic seeds and EDTC when pH<7.Majority of magnetic flocswas integrated with the magnetic seeds, which served as a nucleus to enhance the flocculation property and reduce 20% of EDTC dosages. The particle size analysis and fractal dimension presented that it would decrease the micro flocs, increase the floc volume and density by loading the magnetic seeds.
