The wastewater was from the caustic wash process of a metallurgy plant in China, where the fluorine concentration was around 150 mg/l and the pH was 9~10. The main composition of the wastewater was: F-152.68 mg/l, Na + < 500 mg/l, and SO 4 2− < 400 mg/l. In this work, sodium fluoride and deionized water were used to prepare …

The sludge was obtained from a domestic wastewater treatment plant and the concentration of mixed liquor volatile suspended solids (MLVSS) was kept at around 15 g L −1. For GC/MS analysis, samples were extracted using CH 2 Cl 2 into neutral, basic and acid phases and then dried by the drying agent sodium sulfite and filtered using 0.45 μm ...

Figure 1. 3D modeling of mechanical bar screen. A safety sensor is used to cut off the energy of gearbox, and level sensor is used to operate the system, which is. activated according to a certain ...

The system serves approximately 20,500 acres, 70% of the total land area of Boston. The City is served by two types of wastewater collection systems: separated and combined. A separated sewer system is comprised of sanitary sewers and storm drains. Sanitary sewers are designed to transport only sanitary flow, whereas storm drains are …

The use of the following chemicals will address Alkalinity adjustment issues in your plants. Magnesium Hydroxide, Lime Slurry. Soda Ash. Caustic Soda. With so many options for alkalinity adjustment, there are three main options that are typically represented in the marketplace for Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTP) when faced with this question ...
