Dairy Waste Water Treatment by Combining Ozonation and Nanofiltration

Abstract The aim of this investigation was to examine the applicability of the membrane technique and the effect of preozonation in dairy waste water treatment technology. The best degree of surfactant removal from model anionic surfactant solution by nanofiltration was achieved at 20°C and 40 bar. Investigations on the effects of ozone treatment of the waste water indicated that preozonation decreased the flux and increased the chemical oxygen demand and surfactant removal efficiency. Ozone treatment enhanced the biodegradability of the retentate from 68.8% to 96.4%.
