摘要
A coagulation-flocculation treatment has been applied to a slaughterhouse liquid effluent, using ferric sulphate as coagulant and activated silica, powdered activated carbon, cationic polyacrylamide, polyvinyl alcohol, polyacrylic acid and anionic polyacrylamide as coagulant aids in order to improve the settling time. Once the optimal conditions had been established (speed and time of stirring during flocculation step, pH, coagulant and coagulant aid doses), the efficiency of the coagulation-flocculation process was studied by comparing the particle size distribution before and after the addition of the coagulant. When ferric sulphate was used without the coagulant aids, particle removal efficiency varied with size, although overall efficiency was quite substantial (87%). The use of coagulant aids improved the removal efficiency, except in the case of activated silica, when it fell to 78%. In all other cases removal efficiency values between 93% (for polyvinyl alcohol) and 99% (for anionic polyacrylamide) were reached. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
