A comparative study of biopolymers and alum in the separation and recovery of pulp fibres from paper mill effluent by flocculation
Recovery of cellulose fibres from paper mill effluent has been studied using common polysaccharides or biopolymers such as Guar gum, Xanthan gum and Locust bean gum as flocculent. Guar gum is commonly used in sizing paper and routinely used in paper making. The results have been compared with the pe...
