Definitions

  • the invention is a method for clarifying industrial waste water or paper furnish with an effective amount of at least one dispersion of a water soluble cationic polymer flocculant wherein the improvement comprises the addition of said polymer which has a concentration of at least twenty five percent to said waste water or paper furnish.
  • the industrial waste is preferably food processing waste water, oily waste water, paper mill waste water and inorganic contaminated waste water.
  • the paper furnish may be an aqueous cellulosic suspension.
  • This invention relates to polymers that are of particular value as flocculants for suspensions of organic matter of a proteinaceous or cellulosic nature such as are to be found in sewage and industrial plant treatment effluents or in paper mills.
  • Ca ' tionically charged water soluble or water dispersible polymers are utilized in a variety of processes that involve the separation of solids or immiscible liquids dispersed or suspended in water from water, and the dewatering of solids containing water.
  • These types of polymers which may be natural or synthetic, are broadly termed coagulants and flocculants.
  • These polymers can be utilized in such diverse processes as emulsion breaking, sludge dewatering, raw water clarification, drainage and retention aids in the manufacture of pulp and paper, flotation aids in mining processing and color removal.
  • Polymers of this type generally work by neutralizing the anionic charge of the suspended solids, or liquids, which are to be removed. These solids or liquids may be waste which must be removed from water, or desirable products which are recovered from aqueous systems, such as coal fines, which can be coagulated or flocculated and sold as fuel.
  • suspended solids are removed from water by a variety of processes, including sedimentation, straining, flotation, filtration, coagulation, flocculation, and emulsion breaking among others. Additionally, after suspended solids are removed from the water they must often be dewatered so that they may be further treated or properly disposed of. Liquids treated for solids removal often have as little as several parts per billion of suspended solids or dispersed oils, or may contain large amounts of suspended solids or oils. Solids being dewatered may contain anywhere from 0.25 weight percent solids, to 40 or 50 weight percent solids material.
  • Solids/liquid or liquid/liquid separation processes are designed to remove solids from liquids, or liquids from liquids .
  • particles in nature have either a cationic or anionic charge. Accordingly, these particles often are removed by a water soluble coagulant or flocculant polymer having a charge opposite to that of the particles.
  • a water soluble coagulant or flocculant polymer having a charge opposite to that of the particles.
  • This is referred to as a polyelectrolyte enhanced solids/liquid separation process, wherein a water soluble or dispersionable ionically charged polymer is added to neutralize the charged particles or emulsion droplets to be separated.
  • the dosage of these polymers is critical to the performance of the process. Too little ionically charged polymer, and the suspended particles will not be charge neutralized and will thus still repel each other.
