The Application of Polyferric Chloride in Micro-flocculation Deep Bed Filtration
聚合氯化铁在微絮凝-深床过滤工艺中的应用

Compared with polyaluminium chloride (PAC), the application efficiency of polyferric chloride (PFC) were investigated by pilot micro-flocculation deep bed filtration. The results show that, under the condition of lower dosage (Fe:Al = 3:5), the headloss cycle of PFC was 63 h, and its output in a cycle was 1504 m3/m2, but PAC headloss cycle was 53 h with its output 1266 m3/m2. It is concluded that PFC was benefit to prolong operation cycle and improve output. The research on particle removal mechanism shows that PFC could enhance the floc growth, and the PFC flocs could be effectively entrapped and dehydrated. Therefore PFC is more suitable for the micro-flocculation deep bed filtration process than PAC.
