Toxic organic wastewater treatment through solid phase transformation with re-use potential

A novel treatment of wastewater generated in the production of dinitrobenzene was examined. The method involves solid phase transformation of the wastewater by slaking with lime, followed by removal of the organics contained in the lime in a muffle furnace. The regenerated lime may be re-used, e.g.,...

Summary:A novel treatment of wastewater generated in the production of dinitrobenzene was examined. The method involves solid phase transformation of the wastewater by slaking with lime, followed by removal of the organics contained in the lime in a muffle furnace. The regenerated lime may be re-used, e.g., for the neutralization of acidic wastewaters resulting from the manufacture of m-aminophenol. A flowsheet for the integrated treatment of dinitrobenzene and m-aminophenol plant wastewaters is proposed.
