The effectiveness and kinetics of petrolim refinery wastewater treatment using potassim ferrate as an oxidant and coagulant.

Potassium ferrate remains a multi-functional green substance aimed at refinery wastewater action by substantial combined effectiveness in oxidization, disinfection, and coagulation, creating environment approachable Ferric end-products throughout the reactions. This scheme is required toward the kinetics of the potassium ferrate (K₂FeO₄) oxidation of organic content in oily wastewater and to investigate the effects of Potassium ferrate concentration, pH, and temperature on the reaction. The reaction remained active at squat temperature, higher pH, and larger concentration of ferrate in a basic condition. Central Composite Design and Response Surface Methodology were useful aimed at modeling and optimizing the decontamination process. The conventionality of untried and predicted data (R² = 0.9165, Radj² = 0.8498) were verified using Variance Analysis. potassium ferrate by CCD/RSM allowable to reduce COD by 88.5, through using 80 ppm potassium ferrate, 4 min oxidation time, 200 rpm oxidation, 50 rpm coagulation, at pH=9.5 within 30 min coagulation time.Efficient removal of organic by potassium ferrate preoxidation is believed to be a consequence of several process mechanisms. The coagulation was also improved by increasing particle concentration in water, because of the formation of the intermediate forms of precipitant iron species during preoxidation. In addition, it was also observed that ferrate preoxidation caused algae agglomerate formation before the addition of coagulant, the subsequent application of alum resulted in further coagulation.
