1. The role of industrial glucose in wastewater treatment: During the commissioning of industrial glucose wastewater treatment, industrial glucose is added to provide a carbon source. This is done to better cultivate bacteria, improve the biodegradability of the wastewater, and effectively enhance the affinity of the sludge. This process is faster and more effective than using urea. If the COD and BOD levels in the operating system are insufficient to support the growth and reproduction of the microbial population, additional glucose needs to be added to prevent sludge aging and reduce biological activity.
2. Industrial-grade glucose leather is used in industrial applications for treating leather products such as shoe soles and luggage leather, enhancing their softness and serving as a reducing agent in chrome tanning.
3. Industrial-grade glucose is used as a cleaning agent for steel surfaces: When steel surfaces require plating with tin, chromium, zinc, or nickel for specific applications, such as manufacturing tinplate or galvanized sheets, or for surface chromium plating, the steel billets must undergo thorough cleaning to ensure a strong bond between the coating and the steel surface. Adding sodium gluconate to the cleaning agent will achieve excellent results in these processes.
4. Industrial-grade glucose can be used as a cement additive: Adding a certain amount of gluconic acid to cement can increase the workability and strength of concrete, and it also has a retarding effect, delaying the initial and final setting times of the concrete. For example, adding 0.15% gluconic acid can extend the initial setting time of concrete by more than ten times, effectively increasing the workable time of the concrete from a few hours to several days without affecting its strength.
5. Industrial-grade glucose can be used in various industrial applications, including electroplating and film manufacturing.
6. Formulate a specialized cleaning agent for glass bottles: A specialized cleaning agent for glass bottles, with sodium gluconate as its main ingredient, can effectively address the following common issues: insufficient cleaning power, leading to clogging of spray nozzles and pipelines in bottle washing machines; unsatisfactory removal of labels and rust on bottle necks; undesirable trace residues after washing, affecting food safety (e.g., phosphate residues); and environmental pollution caused by the discharge of wastewater.
