Preparation of Cationic Rice Husk Flocculant and its Flocculating Characteristics
Abstract:
Natural polymer cationic flocculant was prepared by introducing quaternary ammonium group into the rice husk molecules, using potassium permanganate as initiator. The influence of synthetic conditions affecting flocculation was studied, such as reaction temperature, reaction time, dosage of initiator, concentration of sulfuric acid and material ratio. The flocculent experiment of diatomite was chosen to evaluate the capability of flocculant. The results show that the flocculant has good flocculent capacity, the removal of turbidity can reach above 90% for simulated wastewater under the optimistic conditions of synthetic process as follows: etherification temperature, 50°C; etherification time, 3h; initiator concentration, 3 mmol/L; sulfuric acid concentration, 1.8 mmol/L; ratio of rice husk to OTAC, 2: 3.
