Abstract:To address the processing demands and characteristics of municipal sewage, the effect and mechanism of selfmade aluminum and iron/potassium permanganate compound coagulant for advanced treatment of municipal sewage was researched, and the best combination was put forward. The results indicate that the removal rate of turbidity is 95%, the removal rate of CODcr is 75% and the removal rate of TP is 98% when 90 mg·L-1 of coagulant dosage, 15 min of flocculating time,120 r·min-1 of mixing force and 30 min of settling time. In addition, to make the effluent quality meet the reuse standard, relation between dosage of coagulant and COD removal rate of different influent was researched, and the linear relationship between them is obtained, the cost of coagulant is about 0.03~0.07 RMByuan·m-3.
