-The use of electroflotation in emulsified oil wastes was studied. A rectangular electroflotation cell was designed and constructed in acrylic with stainless steel cathode and DSA ® anode with a nominal composition of Ti/Ru 0.34 Ti 0.66 O 2 . The variables studied in the present work were current density and oil, flocculant and electrolyte (NaCl) concentrations. The experiments were carried out in accordance with 2 4 full factorial experimental designs with two center points. The STATISTICA 5.5 software was used for calculations in order to relate experimental data to a statistical model. The best results, yielded 99.71% oil removal were obtained from 1050ppm of emulsified oil feed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
