Valenzuela L., Valverde Flores J., 2018, Reduction of Lead and Silicon in Wastewater from Gas Scrubbing of a Company using Micronanobubbles of Air-Ozone, Chemical Engineering Transactions, 67, 517-522.
The research’s goal was to reduce the concentration of Lead and Silicon through the application of air-ozone micro-bubbles in gas scrubbing’s wastewater of a company. The micronanobubbles generator was used to reduce heavy metals. A preliminary analysis of wastewater was carried out to confirm Lead concentration of 32.26 mg/L and Silicon of 70.49 mg/L. Then the treatment with micronanobubbles generator was carried out for three times of 8, 16 and 24 minutes, with a pH of 6, 8 and 10 until achieving a Lead reduction of 0.088 mg/L, with a reduction percentage of 99.7% and of silicon of 12.97 mg/L, with a percentage of reduction to 81.6% of residual water.
