Application of NaCl Plant Extracts to Decrease the Costs of Microfiltration for Winery Wastewater Treatment
The present study aimed, for the first time, to evaluate the production and application of NaCl plant extracts in a coagulation–flocculation–decantation process (CFD process) for the optimization of the microfiltration process (MF process) for the treatment of winery wastewater (WW). To evaluate the...

| description | The present study aimed, for the first time, to evaluate the production and application of NaCl plant extracts in a coagulation–flocculation–decantation process (CFD process) for the optimization of the microfiltration process (MF process) for the treatment of winery wastewater (WW). To evaluate the efficiency of the NaCl extracts, aluminum sulfate (10%) was applied as a comparison. The CFD process was optimized by varying the WW pH, coagulant dosage, agitation, type and dosage of flocculants before the microfiltration process. The application of <i>Chelidonium majus</i> L. (seeds) achieved 29.7, 99.7 and 95.3% total organic carbon, turbidity and total suspended solids removal, respectively, with 108 mg of filter consumption. In conclusion, NaCl plant extracts are a promising technology for WW treatment. |
