Abstract

Evaluation of a chemical treatment through coagulant and flocculants addition with the objective of diminishing the polluting load of products elaboration from boneless pig meat wastewaters. The tests were made in a Jar Test equipment, where the products aluminum polichloride (PAC) and ferric chloride were evaluated with four commercial flocculants. Removal efficiency was followed by total suspended solids determination, according to (APHA-AWWA-WEF, 2017) standard method The optimal operational parameters were determined for chemical treatment with PAC and ferric chloride, obtaining a suspended matter removal greater than 99% and larger than 85% for chemical oxygen demand for the selected coagulant/ flocculants couples.
