| Summary: | The purpose of the work is to study the wastewater treatment of a cardboard and paper factory in the Khmelnytskyi region using physicochemical methods, namely coagulation and oxidation, to increase the efficiency of removing organic pollutants according to COD and BOD indicators. The use of coagulation and chlorination methods, before biological treatment in aeration tanks, was proposed. Alumofloc 18 % was used as a coagulant, PAA was used as a flocculant and sodium hydroxide was used as an alkalizing reagent. The study was conducted on a mixture of industrial and sewage wastewater with COD and BOD5 – 3200 and 1575 mg L–1, respectively, and on industrial wastewater with COD and BOD5 – 4480 and 1960 mg L–1, respectively. The effects of reducing COD and BOD5 indicators in the first case after coagulation were 30 and 40 %, after chlorination – 37.82 and 43.18 %, respectively, and in the second after coagulation – 28.58 and 47.25 %, respectively. The effects of wastewater treatment of a cardboard and paper factory using coagulation and oxidation methods will allow for a reduction in the concentration of organic substances according to COD and BOD indicators before the biological treatment of wastewater in aeration tanks and also will ensure an increase in the efficiency of biological treatment. |
