Treatment Technologies for Reduction of Color, AOX, and Resin & Fatty Acids, 1992 Environmental Conference Proceedings
This study is part of the elaborate Toxicity Reduction Evaluation (TRE) studies that Louisiana-Pacific Corporation, Samoa, CA and Simpson Paper Company, Fairhaven, CA, were required to conduct in order to address very rigorous chronic toxicity effluent limitations. Treatability testing of various in-plant and whole mill effluent streams was conducted using a number of physical/chemical treatment technologies, as well as biological treatment. This toxicity testing work also included the collection of data on the reduction of color, adsorbable organic halogens (AOX), and resin & fatty acids (RFAs). Reported in this paper are measured color, AOX, and RFA removal potentials for various treatment technologies, including chemical precipitation, ultra-filtration, activated carbon adsorption, ozonation, ozone-peroxide oxidation, foam flotation, and acti-vated sludge biological treatment, when used to treat various bleached kraft process streams.
