title: [Treatment of sulfanilamide production wastewater by resin adsorption technique].
abstract: According to the character of sulfanilamide production wastewater, in this paper, the recovery process of sulfanilamide, sodium nitrate in wastewater resulting from manufacturing sulfanilamide was developed by using macro porous resin. The conditions of the resin adsorption and desorption capacity were investigated and the optimal parameters were determined. The results of experiment indicated that this technique was suitable for removal of sulfanilamide from wastewater. About 86% COD removal was obtained under the optimized adsorption conditions, about 86% sulfanilamide and 95% sodium nitrate were recovered from wastewater for possible recycling to the manufacturing process and the recovered sulfanilamide's purity reached 99.8%. The adsorption capacity of resin remained constant during the repetition process of adsorption and desorption. This technique not only eliminates the environmental pollution but also obtain distinct economic benefit.
