To address the issues of low adsorption efficiency of activated carbon in dyeing wastewater treatment, a dynamic adsorption process using activated carbon for wastewater treatment was proposed. A hydrocyclone was used as the carrier, and the adsorbent separation process was integrated into the same single device. Methylene blue (MB) was used to simulate printing and dyeing wastewater. The effects of initial concentration of MB solution, ratio of activated carbon quality to wastewater flow, and adsorption temperature on the adsorption efficiency were investigated. The results showed that the optimal adsorption efficiency of MB by activated carbon was 95.2 % when the initial concentration of MB solution was 12 mg/L, the ratio of activated carbon quality to wastewater flow was 0.5 mg/mL, and the adsorption temperature of MB solution was 44.5 °C. In addition, compared with the water bath oscillation method, the removal efficiency of MB was increased by 731 % under the same adsorption conditions. The research shows that it is feasible to treat printing and dyeing wastewater by using a hydrocyclone to enhance activated carbon adsorption. The research aims to provide a practical basis for future optimization of the structure and operation parameters of hydrocyclone and to reveal their wide application prospects.
