摘要
A laboratory investigation was carried out to determine the applicability of a foam separation process to remove organic pollutants from waste water. The effect of the operating variables namely air flow rate, surfactant flow rate, pressure, pH and concentration of the solid adsorbent were studied for different feed streams. It was found that foam separation alone could achieve 98% removal of oil from a waste stream containing emulsified oil in water. The three phase fluidized bed adsorption process yielded 98% reduction of organics in the two industrial waste waters tested. The results of a cost study carried out to establish the feasibility of using a similar process on an industrial scale are also presented. © 1979.
