Abstract:
The performance of flocculants used in the solid-liquid separation of red mud is often compromised by the methods used to mix the fast acting polymers into the slurry. A simple model of the relationship between flocculant performance and intensity of mixing is proposed and a device for mixing flocculant and slurry has been developed on the basis of the model.The intensity of mixing at the point of distributing the flocculant into the slurry is arguably the most important variable influencing the final flocculant performance. This relationship is established using data from flocculation tests i

Abstract:
Polyacrylamide is widely used as a flocculant but the influence of the molecular mass distribution upon flocculant activity is poorly understood. This thesis outlines the successful characterisation of ultrahigh molecular mass polyacrylamide solutions in terms of discrete solvated polymer coils and coil agglomerates. These features were correlated with the observed flocculation, demonstrating a number of solution state features required to improve flocculation activity.Aqueous solutions of polyacrylamide exhibit time-dependant behaviour affecting viscosity and polymer agglomeration.

The effect of pH, temperature, and ionic strength on the molecular conformation of five industrial polyacrylamide-based flocculants was investigated by determining intrinsic viscosities on dilute flocculant solutions. The Fedors equation was found to be most suitable for all flocculants for determining the intrinsic viscosity. The results indicated that the flocculants are fully extended in distilled water at natural pH and at 25°C as evidenced by the high intrinsic viscosities. The data pointed to the strong dependence of the intrinsic viscosity on the presence of salts as a result of the shi

The particles are electrostatically and in most cases also sterically stabilized by cationic polyelectrolytes. The size of the particles is usually in the range of 0.5-2 µm in diameter. The idea of having cationic particles is that they are supposed to be deposited onto the negatively charged fiber su

The hydrodynamic behaviour of fine suspended aqueous sediments, and stability of the bedforms they create once settled, are governed by the physical properties (e.g., size, shape, porosity and density) of the flocculated particles in suspension (flocs). Consequently, accurate prediction of the transport and fate of sediments and of the nutrients and pollutants they carry depends on our ability to characterise aqueous flocs.

Abstract:
El presente trabajo analiza una propuesta de reutilización de agua proveniente del concreto fresco retornado a las plantas de premezclado. Esta propuesta es dada mediante productos floculantes, los cuales ayudarán a la clarificación del agua concentrada en las pozas de las industrias de premezclado. Asimismo, el agua recuperada tendrá similares características que el agua convencional utilizada, y que posteriormente ingresará al nuevo diseño de concreto, en donde aportará en un 5% en la resistencia del concreto adicional. Por otro lado, se analizó la posibilidad de reutilizar los finos acumula

Abstract:
This is an experimental study into the permeability and compressibility properties of bagasse pulp pads. Three experimental rigs were custom-built for this project. The experimental work is complemented by modelling work. Both the steady-state and dynamic behaviour of pulp pads are evaluated in the experimental and modelling components of this project. Bagasse, the fibrous residue that remains after sugar is extracted from sugarcane, is normally burnt in Australia to generate steam and electricity for the sugar factory. A study into bagasse pulp was motivated by the possibility of making highl

Abstract:
Sludge treatment and disposal are one of the most important parts of sewage treatment. These are economically challenging parts, and therefore emphasis is placed on effective dosing. The dose should be as small as possible but also the highest dry matter output. The main target of this diploma thesis is therefore to show that it is possible to achieve the same or better degree of drainage of the sludge if different flocculant/coagulant ratio is applied to the sludge. Diploma thesis deals with determination of the optimal combination of chemical doses during sludge dewatering. The thesis contai

Abstract:
Polímeros e copolímeros hidrossolúveis a base de acrilamida e seus derivados são sintetizados e aplicados principalmente como floculantes, auxiliando na remoção de sólidos finos presentes em águas residuais e industriais. As poliacrilamidas, como são assim chamadas, podem se apresentar em sua forma neutra ou contendo diferentes cargas iônicas (positivas ou negativas) em sua composição em função do tipo de aplicação específica. As poliacrilamidas são sintetizadas, em sua grande maioria, através de emulsões inversas via polimerização radicalar, visando à elevada massa molar do polímero formado.

Die Querstrom-Mikrofiltration mit Kapillarmembranen kommt zunehmend in den Bereichen Lebensmittel-, Pharma-, Chemieindustrie sowie in der Umwelttechnik zum Einsatz. Eine vollständige Beschreibung der Deckschichtbildung innerhalb der Membrananlage ist jedoch noch nicht gelungen. Der erste Teil dieser Arbeit widmet sich der Kuchenbildung in einer Kapillarmembran. Dabei werden sowohl Änderungen der Strömungsverhältnisse entlang der Kapillarlänge als auch Klassiereffekte bei der Querstrom-Mikrofiltration von polydispersen Stoffsystemen berücksichtigt.
