Investigating an advanced method of surface runoff treatment in the city of Sochi

Summary

The results of investigating storm water treatment technologies under the conditions of Sochi are presented. A pilot treatment plant is described, the operation of the basic units – lamella settler and filters – is considered. The kinetics of surface runoff suspended solids sedimentation is investigated. The performance characteristics of the lamella module during chemical sedimentation: downward clarified water flow rate in cavities, upward flow in plate spacing, and water surface loading were determined. The efficiency of using fibrous filter for storm water treatment was theoretically substantiated and studied. The service adhesive capacity of the filter was determined. The methods of the treatment unit regeneration are suggested.

Estimation of the effectiveness of using sodium-cation exchange resins in the process of water softening for the operation of heat producing plants

Summary

The results of estimating the effectiveness of removing hardness salts from water by the ion exchange method using various sodium-cation exchange resins with the aim of using softened water to feed heat producing plants are presented. The studies were carried out in an ion exchange pilot plant using a single-stage flow scheme of sodium cationization in laminar conditions. The experiments involved determining the dependence of the softening efficiency on the water flow rate until the resource exhaustion of each of the resins with the subsequent regeneration and repeated studies of the effectiveness at different flow rates. It was established that sodium-cation resins provided for a high degree of removing hardness salts. At the same time, higher results in terms of the softening efficiency and degree of regeneration were obtained with Purolite C100E and Tokem-150 resins. Based on the results of the studies using these trademarks of resin for water softening as part of multi-stage water treatment plants at thermal power plants and boiler houses was proposed.

Improving the technology of strong sulfide wastewater treatment

Summary

The theoretically justified ways of improving the technology of deactivation of sulfide-alkaline wastewater generated in the tannery process cycle, during gas production, oil refining etc. are suggested. The development of ferro-catalytic sulfide oxidation with atmospheric oxygen regeneration of iron hydroxide that is circulating in the wastewater treatment process is a perspective direction in the management of recycled technology potential that ensures complete elimination of industrial emissions of hydrogen sulfide to the environment.
