The invention relates to a method for treating
chromium-containing waste water by utilizing banana
skin. Banana
skin powder is washed and dried and then is mixed with a solidified liquid, and a Cacl2 solution is added to form a mixture, so as to prepare particles; the particles are added into the Cacl2 solution, standing is carried out for 12 hours, the particles are taken out and washed for twice, filtering and
drying are carried out, the prepared reduction adsorbent is uniformly mixed with the
chromium-containing waste water, wherein the
mass ratio of
hexavalent chromium to the reduction adsorbent in the waste water is 1:200, the pH value is regulated to 4, and reaction is carried out for 4-6 hours; reacted waste water is fed into a centrifugal
machine; the concentration of
hexavalent chromium ions in centrifuged supernate is less than 0.5mg / L, the total
chromium ion concentration is less than 1.5mg / L, the precipitate after
centrifugation is uniformly mixed with
hydrochloric acid, the mixture is fed into an oscillator,
desorption is carried out for 4-6 hours, the desorbed
mixed solution is fed into the centrifugal
machine, and separation is carried out to obtain a trivalent chromium
ion solution and a waste reduction adsorbent. The method provided by the invention has the advantages of low cost, good
treatment effect, simple process, mild reaction condition, capability of recycling trivalent chromium, less secondary
pollution, and the like.
