Abstract EN
Oily wastewater is one of the most dangerous forms of environmental pollution, it is large amount of water that is wasted petrochemical industries, oily waste water contains oil, suspended solids, and dissolved solids.
The study investigates the treatment of real oily waste water that was collected from al-Dura refinery (Iraq) /Middle Refineries Company from oil and suspended solid contamination for re-use and environmental consideration using coagulation and flocculation processes.
Coagulation /flocculation is a common method used as primary purification processes to oily wastewater treatment due to its usability, performance, and low cost.
Coagulation experiments were completed by the Jar Test device.
The additives coagulants of ferric sulfate and aluminum sulfate were in a range about (10- 25) ppm, as well as polyelectrolyte- (polyacrylamide) as an additional flocculent in the range (1-4) ppm.
The results show that ferric sulfate was more efficient in removing turbidity than Aluminum sulfate under the same conditions, with the best removal of turbidity at dose concentration 20 ppm of Ferric sulfate and a flocculent dose concentration of 3 ppm of polyacrylamide, also with oil content decreasing from 288 ppm to 14.4 ppm and the turbidity removal from 187 to 8.5 NTU.
