Evaluation of Dairy Waste Treatability by Gel-Chromatography

Year: 1977
Type: article
Abstract: Eeauents from dairy processing create some of the most diMcult industrial pollution problems.To minimize water usage and waste load it is often worthwhile to renovate and recycle the waste water.A serious obstacle in selecting the proper renovation technique is the lack of information concerning the treatability of the constituents of dairy waste by biological and/or physicochemical methods.Thus in the present paper a gel chromatographic technique was applied to evaiuate the treatability of the dairy eMuents according to their elution characteristics.The elution characteristics of the water fraction evinces effective removal by bioiogical treatment.Compounds which absorb in UV are selectively removed by coagulation and adsorption, In the case of concentrated eflliuents, it is proposed that biological treatment in combination with coagulation and adsorption is reguired for effective waste renovation, However, for dilute effluents coagulation and adsorption are sufficient to produce water with an acceptable quality for reuse in dairy processing.used to reduce the COD of cheese whey wastewater.Anderson5) discussed coagulation with Al,(SO,),, FeCl, and Ca(OH),.Coagulation of eMuents having
