Abstract:

In order to solve the problem of environmental pollution caused by polyester alcoholysis solution, the electrocoagulation was used to decolorize the solution. An aluminum electrode and a copper electrode were used as the anode and cathode of the electroflocculation reaction system, respectively. The influences of electrolysis voltage, electrolyte concentration, initial pH value and initial dye concentration on the decolorization rate during electroflocculation were studied. The electrodes and flocs were tested, the main decolorization mechanism of the electrocoagulation process was discussed, and the kinetic equation of the decolorization was established. The results show that the optimal process parameters include a voltage of 20 V, an initial pH value of 8, an electrolyte concentration of 0.80 g/L and an initial concentration of 60 mg/L, and the decolorization rate is high than 95% after electrolyzing for 80 min. The electrocoagulation process of polyester alcoholysis solution with an aluminum electrode conforms to the second-order kinetic model.

Key words: waste polyester, alcoholysis solution, electrocoagulation, decolorization rate, polyester recycling and utilization
