The present work investigates the conjugation of flotation and photo-Fenton techniques on oil removal performance from oilfield produced water. The experiments were conducted in a column flotation and annular lamp reactor for induced air flotation and photodegradation steps, respectively. A nonionic surfactant was used as a flotation agent. The flotation experimental data were analyzed in terms...

Proses pengolahan limbah pada Instalasi air di Kawasan Industri Intiland salah satunya menggunakan sistem DAF (Dissolved Air Flotation) yang berfungsi untuk memisahkan partikel tersuspensi sulit dipisahkan seperti minyak dan lemak dengan limbah, dimana rangkaian proses unit ini terlebih dahulu harus melalui pretreatment koagulasi-flokulasi sehingga terbentuk gumpalan flok akan dipisahkan. Tujua...

New chemicals, based on the synergistic effect between inorganic polyaluminium salts and organic cationic polyelectrolytes, have been tested for the chemical optimization of a dissolved air flotation (DAF) unit, used as internal treatment of process waters in a paper mill based on 100% recovered paper. Laboratory tests have demonstrated that polyamine modifications of the aluminium salts are th...

In this study, Chlorella zofingiensis harvesting by dissolved air flotation (DAF) was critically evaluated with regard to algal concentration, culture conditions, type and dosage of coagulants, and recycle ratio. Harvesting efficiency increased with coagulant dosage and leveled off at 81%, 86%, 91%, and 87% when chitosan, Al(3+) , Fe(3+) , and cetyl trimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) were used at...

Introduction Petroleum refining utilize large quantities of water for desalting, distillation, thermal cracking, catalytic and treatment processes to produce useful products [liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), gasoline, jet fuel, diesel, asphalt and petrochemical feedstock] 1-3. Refining process generates wastewater (0.4-1.6 times the volume of crude oil processed)4. Discharge of untreated petroleu...

Palm oil is one of the most important agroindustries in Malaysia. Huge quantities of palm oil mill effluent (POME) pose a great threat to aqueous environment due to its very high COD. To make full use of discharged wastes, the integrated "zero discharge" pilot-scale industrial plant comprising "pretreatment-anaerobic and aerobic process-membrane separation" was continuously operated for 1 year....

Flotation deinking of old newsprint (ONP) using polydiallyldimethylammonium chloride (polyDADMAC) as the only deinking agent was studied. The results demonstrate that polyDADMAC can neutralize dissolved anionics to form small particles. These small particles, together with ink, filler, and fines, strongly adsorbed onto air bubble surfaces and functioned as particle foaming agents. Therefore, no...

The aim of this project was to remove chloride ions from Eshidiya industrial waste water to be reused in the flotation cells. The industrial wastewater was treated by passing it through ion exchange column. During the experiments, two types of resins were used: anion resin and mixed resin (cation / anion).The selectivity coefficient and the separation factor were calculated in those experiments...
