| Abstract |
The applicability to municipal wastes of the recently discovered magnesium carbonate-lime water treatment process has been investigated. A sixteen-month laboratory study was conducted and was followed by an eight-month pilot plant study. Four wastewaters with COD values varying from 200 to 1,500 mg/l were examined. Bench-scale coagulation studies designed to compare the effect of added MgCO3 with treatment by lime only showed a 0%-30% greater reduction in effluent COD residuals. Color and turbidity reduction by the magnesium-plus-lime process averaged 50%-85% greater when compared to treatment by lime only. A series of 72-hour pilot plant runs was conducted with the magnesium precipitated increased after each three day period. Effluent characteristics improved as the amount of magnesium precipitated was increased. Influent and filter effluent samples were collected every four hours and analyzed for COD, TOC, total phosphorus, alkalinity, hardness, calcium, and magnesium. Values for BOD were determined from composited samples. |
