Učinkovita obrada vode flotacijom otopljenog zraka (DAF) za recikliranje plastike

Wondering how to make your plastic recycling operation even better? Meet Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) systems! These are a fantastic tool in modern recycling, offering a super efficient and wallet-friendly way to treat wastewater. By skillfully removing contaminants like tiny solids (TSS), oils & grease (FOG), fats, and even biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), DAF systems help make your recycling process greener, cleaner, and more cost-effective. Let’s dive in!

What Exactly is Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF)?

Think of Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) as a clever water cleaning process. Its main job is to clarify wastewater by getting rid of suspended stuff like oils, solids, and other gunk. How does it work its magic? Air is dissolved into the water under pressure, like fizz in a soda bottle. Then, this air-water mix is released into a special flotation tank at normal atmospheric pressure. Presto! The released air forms countless tiny bubbles. These bubbles act like little lifters, attaching themselves to the suspended particles and floating them gently to the surface. This layer of floated material is then simply skimmed off, leaving behind beautifully clear water, free from pollutants.

Why Use DAF in Plastic Recycling? It’s a Smart Choice!

Plastic recycling plants, while doing great work, naturally generate wastewater. This water can contain microplastics, oils, leftover chemicals, and other residues. If released untreated, it can harm our environment and lead to hefty disposal fees. Bringing a DAF system into your plant tackles these environmental worries head-on. Plus, it helps you save water by allowing reuse, which in turn cuts down on operational costs. It’s a win-win!

Where Else Do DAF Systems Shine? Key Applications:

While DAF is a star player in plastic recycling, its talents are recognized across many industries! Here’s where else you might find these versatile systems hard at work:

• → Paper Mills: Recovering valuable fibers and cleaning up wastewater.
• → Printing & Dyeing: Separating out stubborn dyes and pigments.
• → Electroplating Facilities: Removing tricky heavy metal ions.
• → Industrial Sites (Oily Water): Separating oils and grease like a champ.
• → Tanneries: Dealing with fats, hair, and chemicals from leather processing.
• → Chemical Plants: Helping separate out various chemical contaminants.
• → Prerada hrane: Tackling fats, oils, and grease (FOG) like a pro.
• → Biological Treatment Plants: Assisting in the separation of biological sludge.
• → Obrada površinske vode: Removing algae and other natural contaminants efficiently.

How DAF Works Its Magic in Plastic Recycling

So, how does the DAF system specifically help in a plastic recycling setup? It typically involves dissolving compressed air into the incoming wastewater. This “charged” water then flows into the flotation tank. As the pressure drops, microbubbles bloom and attach to the suspended plastic particles, oils, and other bits. These buoyant clusters rise to the surface, forming a sludge layer. A mechanical scraper then gently sweeps this layer away, leaving you with much cleaner water – often ready to be reused right back in your recycling line!

Stručni savjet: To make this process even more effective, we often add helpful chemicals known as coagulants (like Poly Aluminium Chloride, or PAC) and flocculants (like Polyacrylamide, or PAM). These act like magnets, helping smaller particles clump together into larger groups (flocs), making it much easier for the air bubbles to grab them and lift them away.
