摘要
Sodium carboxymethylcellulose(CMCNa) is an anionic water soluble polyelectrolyte widely used in many industrial sectors including food,textiles,papers,adhesives,paints,pharmaceuticals,cosmetics and mineral processing.CMCNa was produced by chemical modification of cellulose,and represents many advantages:natural,renewable,non-toxic and biodegradable.In this study,different kinds of CMCNa,prepared from an agricultural waste date palm rachis,were tested as eco-friendly flocculants for drinking water treatment and their performances as flocculants in turbidity removal enhancement were assessed.The prepared materials were characterized by the degree of substitution(DS) and polymerisation(DP) .The study of the effect of some experimental parameters on the coagulation-flocculation performance,using the prepared materials combined with aluminium sulphate(as coagulant) ,showed that the best conditions for turbidity treatment were given for pH 8,coagulant dose 20 mg/L,flocculant concentration of 100 mg/L and stirring velocity(during the flocculation step) of 30 r/min.Under the optimum conditions,the turbidity removal using CMCNa,prepared from raw material,was about 95%.A comparison study between the flocculation performance of a commercial anionic flocculant(A100PWG:polyacrylamide) and that of the prepared CMCNa showed that the performance of the waste-based flocculant with a DS of 1.17 and a DP of 480 was 10%better than that achieved by the commercial one.
