TY - JOUR N2 - Five cosmetics wastewater samples were treated by Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) assisted by coagulation. Different aluminum based coagulants were used: (Al2(SO4)3, Al 1019, Al 3010, Al 3030, Al 3035, PAX 16 and PAX 19). The raw wastewater COD values were in the range 285-2124 mg/l. The efficiency of DAF depended on different coagulants and production profi le of factory. COD removal was varied from 11.1 to 77.7%. The efficiency of coagulants was similar during treatment of particular sample. The best results were obtained with Al2(SO4)3 and for sample 5 - lotions and shampoos production. The wastewater from UV fi lter creams production (sample 4) was resistant to treatment by DAF regardless of used coagulant. HS-SPME-GC-MS analysis can be a confirmation of DAF effectiveness L1 - http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/102500/PDF/aep-2017-0018.pdf L2 - http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/102500 PY - 2017 IS - No 2 DO - 10.1515/aep-2017-0018 KW - wastewater treatment KW - GC-MS KW - gas chromatography KW - cosmetic wastewater KW - dissolved air flotation KW - PPCPs A1 - Bogacki, Jan Paweł A1 - Marcinowski, Piotr A1 - Naumczyk, Jeremi A1 - Wiliński, Piotr PB - Polish Academy of Sciences VL - vol. 43 DA - 2017.06.30 T1 - Cosmetic wastewater treatment using dissolved air flotation UR - http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/dlibra/publication/edition/102500 T2 - Archives of Environmental Protection ER -
