The Method to Deal with the Discharge Pollution of Starch Processing Wastewater

Due to the traditional starch processing mode in rural areas, the starch production method is extensive and backward, the starch processing equipment used is low in automation, the production consumes a lot of water but the starch extraction rate is low and the quality is poor, and the discharge of starch wastewater is huge.

Every year in the peak season of starch processing, about 1.8 million tons of high-concentration starch wastewater is directly discharged into rivers without any sewage treatment measures. However, starch wastewater contains a large number of organic pollutants, such as protein, sugar, soluble starch, fine fiber, etc., which will cause serious water pollution and waste of resources directly discharged. So what is the method to deal with the discharge pollution of starch processing wastewater?

How to deal with starch processing wastewater?

1. Strengthen wastewater treatment. The enterprises need to strengthen wastewater treatment, which can be treated by physical, chemical, and biological methods, such as precipitation, filtration, adsorption, oxidation, biodegradation, etc., to degrade organic substances in starch wastewater into harmless substances.

2. Optimize the processing technology. Some farmer-type and workshop-type starch processing plants adopt more starch traditional processing methods, and the technology is relatively backward. There are a lot of organic substances in the wastewater produced, and some pipeline leakage will occur at the same time. If the processing technology can be optimized and the amount of wastewater produced can be reduced, it will help reduce the difficulty and cost of wastewater treatment.

3. Promote wastewater recycling. Starch wastewater contains a certain amount of organic substances such as starch and protein, which can be converted into biomass energy or chemical raw materials through proper treatment and purification to realize the utilization of waste resources. This can not only reduce the pollution of wastewater to the environment but also improve the economic benefits of enterprises.

4. Strengthen management and supervision. Enterprises should strengthen management and supervision, establish a sound environmental protection system and management system, and ensure that the discharge of wastewater meets national and local environmental protection standards.
