DISCUSSION
A+B C+D
it must obey the equation
[C][D]
[A][B] = K ; where K is a constant
For a given system of chemical substances that have reacted to the point of
equilibrium, the mathematical result of multiplying the products, each expressed
as moles per liter, divided by the mathematical product of the reactants, is always
the same number. Consequently, in order to not change the value of K, an increase
in either A or B will shift the equilibrium to the right, causing a corresponding
decrease in B or A, respectively. Likewise, removal of some or all of either C or D
will shift the equilibrium to the right, causing decreases in both A and B. It
follows, then, that if substance A is a pollutant, substance B will react with A to
produce an insoluble precipitate (C or D), and because precipitation constitutes
removal from solution, then substance B can be added until substance A has
essentially disappeared.
The procedure that can be used to develop an effective and efficient
treatment technology is as follows: First, identify one or more insoluble
compounds of the target pollutant. The second step, identify one or more soluble
compounds that are inexpensive sources of the remaining substances in the
insoluble compound. After that, perform experiments in the laboratory to confirm
the technical and financial feasibility of each treatment.
Lyophillic Colloids
The principal stabilizing factor in the case of lyophillic sols is the
solvating force exerted on the particles (not on the ions in the diffuse double
layer) by the suspending medium. Two methods can be employed to desolvate
lyophillic colloids. In the first method, a liquid can be added to the system that is
both a poor solvent for the suspended particle and highly miscible with the
suspending medium. When this is done the colloid is no longer able to form bonds
with the medium that are stronger than the internal bonds between elements of the
medium, and the principal stabilizing factor is removed. This process is called
coacervation. The other method is to add a substance, such as a sulfate salt,
which can form stronger solvation bonds with the solvent than the solvent can
with the suspended colloids. When this is done, the added salt effectively pulls the
hydrated water layer from the surface of the colloid, again, destroying the
principal stabilizing factor. This process is known as salting out.
It may then be necessary to neutralize the hydrochloric acid by one of the usual
methods. Additional methods of oxidizing hydrogen sulfide to either sulfate ion or
elemental sulfur (both odor free) include the following:
1. Raising the level of dissolved oxygen (beyond the level of saturation at
atmospheric pressure) by adding oxygen under pressure.
2. Adding hydrogen peroxide.
3. Adding potassium permanganate
Co-Precipitation
co-precipitation often brought about as a result of chemical treatment to produce
an insoluble substance of another target pollutant. For the example is both arsenic
and cadmium are effectively co-precipitated with aluminum or iron. If there is
dissolved iron and arsenic and/or cadmium in an industrial wastewater, oxygen
can be added to form insoluble ferric oxide, which then builds a rather loose
crystal lattice structure. This precipitate exists in the wastewater medium as a
suspension of particulate matter. As these particles are building, arsenic and/or
cadmium ions, which are relatively hydrophobic, adsorb to them, effectively
removing them from solution. As the particles settle to the bottom of the reaction
vessel, and the resulting sludge is removed, the treatment process is completed
Solvent Extraction
Solvent extraction operates on the principle of differential solubilities. When a
solute substance is dissolved in one solvent, and a solvent in which that substance
is more soluble than it is in the first solvent is added, and the two solvents that are
not miscible with each other (not soluble in one another) are mixed vigorously
together, the dissolved substance will pass from the first solvent into the second.
Thermal Oxidation
Thermal oxidation has often been used to remediate contaminated soil. The
mechanism and products of thermal oxidation are the same as for chemical
oxidation with oxygen. The mechanism is electrophyllic attack, and the products
are carbon dioxide, water, and oxidized ions and molecules such as sulfate, sulfur
oxides, and nitrogen oxides
Catalytic Oxidation
There are two way to overcome the defiency when the energy of activation
required for oxygen, or another oxidizing agent, to react with a certain organic
substance is too great for the reaction to proceed under normal conditions (1) to
add heat to supply the energy of activation (thermal oxidation), and (2) to add a
catalyst, which reduces the energy of activation (catalytic oxidation).
CHAPTER III
CONCLUSION
3.1 Conclusion
Wastewater treatment using chemical method depend on the
chemical characteristics of the pollutants, their tendency to react with
chemical compound, and the chemical characteristics of reaction between
pollutants and chemical compound, their solubilities, volatilities, and the
other properties. In general, there are six chemical processes can be used
to remove substances from wastewater, they are Reaction to produce an
insoluble solid, reaction to produce an insoluble gas, reduction of surface
change to produce coagulation of a colloidal suspension, reaction to
produce a biologically degradable substance from a nonbiodegradable
substance, reaction to destroy or otherwise deastive a chelating agent, and
then oxidation or reduction to produce a non-objectinable substance or a
substance that canbe removed more easily by one of the prvious method.
3.2 Suggestion
There are may chemical method to applied in wastewater treatment
technology, so we need to choose the best method to minimize cost and to
get effectively and efficiency.
