The invention relates to a treating agent for papermaking sewage. The treating agent is prepared from polymaleic anhydride, ethylenediamine tetramethylenephosphonic acid, polyhydric alcohol phosphate ester, oxidized alkylamine polyoxyethylene ether, myristyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride, potassium chlorate, trichloroisocyanuric acid, triclosan, lithopone, coal ash, nanometer copper oxide, urea, bentonite, glucose, carbon black, zinc oxide powder, corn starch, sucrose, hexamethylenetetramine,beta-mercaptoethanol, acetic acid, tert-butyl cellosolve, tetrabutyl titanate, hydroxyethyl cellulose, diisobutyl phthalate, isophorone, butyl carbitol, triethanolamine oleic soap, dichlorotetrafluoroethane, disodium mono(polyoxyethylene alkyl)sulfosuccinate and deionized water. The reaction speed is high, no toxic or harmful gas is produced in the process, the reacted product is stable and will not be decomposed to be toxic matter, and the treating agent is efficient, nontoxic and safe to the human body before and after reaction, produces no corrosion to objects, and is high in sewage treating efficiency.
