Three typical photovoltaic wastewater treatment technologies were described. Chemical precipitation is preferred for treating fluorine-rich wastewater. Biological method is the main treatment process of nitrogen-rich wastewater. The removal method and sequence of pollutants in mixed wastewater need attention.
Summary of actual PV wastewater treatment cases and methods (Note: TN in this table is mainly composed of NH 4+ -N and NO 3− -N; Comprehensive wastewater* refers to the mixed wastewater rich in fluoride and nitrate; Comprehensive wastewater** refers to the mixed wastewater of the three.).
Following the recent booming in high technology industries, mixtures of substances, such as polyethylene glycols (PEGs), lactic acids, and other salts, have been identified in the polishing wastewater generated by photovoltaic cell plants .
In conclusion, current research on PV cell production wastewater remains in its exploratory stage. For fluorine-rich PV wastewater, the combination of chemical precipitation and coagulation sedimentation processes is still the predominant approach. However, more research efforts are needed in CaF 2 resource recovery.
Both EC technology and chemical precipitation have high fluoride removal efficiency, and can be used for primary treatment of PV wastewater. However, when used alone, the effluent fluoride concentration is difficult to meet the standard.
If low-cost environmentally friendly catalysts can be found, the application of photocatalysis technology in PV wastewater could be promising. In short, of all the above methods, biological treatment is the most economically feasible and the primary choice for treating ammonia-rich and nitrate-rich wastewater.
