Electrokinetic phenomena accompanying treatment of soy milk production wastewater by agent based on electric arc furnace dust

Abstract

The electrokinetic phenomena were studied on model systems represented by finely dispersed water emulsions imitating the wastewater of soy milk production. The study has shown the presence of a suspension effect and its dependence on various factors. The results have proven that the coagulating suspension on the basis of electric arc furnace (EAF) dust is an effective way to treat soy milk production wastewater. The interaction of system components is stipulated by opposite charges of the particles in coagulating suspension and emulsion.
