Coagulant and flocculant effect of Opuntia ficus-indica in water treatment

ABSTRACT: One of the most relevant processes in potable and wastewater treatment plants is coagulation-flocculation,which gives rise to the destabilization of dissolving solids, for the subsequent generation of flocs using a coagulating agent. Aluminum sulfate (Al2(SO4)3) is the most used coagulant...

description ABSTRACT: One of the most relevant processes in potable and wastewater treatment plants is coagulation-flocculation,which gives rise to the destabilization of dissolving solids, for the subsequent generation of flocs using a coagulating agent. Aluminum sulfate (Al2(SO4)3) is the most used coagulant internationally, due to its efficiency and low cost. However, its utilization can leave a residue of aluminum in water and bring with it a variety of health problems due to its bioaccumu- lative characteristics, implying both the deterioration of ecosystems and problems for human health. In this regard, it is necessary to establish alternatives that avoid the permanence of this heavy metal in water, so that the mucilage of Opuntia ficus-indica becomes a natural coagulant of great interest. Likewise, it is a sustainable alternative for water treatment, given its characteristics of biodegradability, low toxicity, commercial cost, relative abundance, renewability, and high efficiency, allowing a low generation of sludge, which can be degraded through a fair treatment with a high valuation spectrum.

El sulfato de aluminio (Al2(SO4)3) es el coagulante más utilizado a nivel internacional, debido a su eficiencia y bajo costo. Sin embargo, su uso puede dejar un remanente de aluminio en el agua y traer consigo una variedad de problemas sanitarios debido a sus características bioacumulativas, implicando tanto el deterioro de los ecosistemas, como problemas para la salud del ser humano. En este sentido, se hace necesario establecer alternativas que eviten la permanencia de este metal pesado en el agua, de modo que el mucílago de Opuntia ficus-indica se convierte en un coagulante natural de gran interés. De igual manera, es una alternativa sostenible de tratamiento de las aguas, dadas sus características de biodegradabilidad, baja toxicidad, costo comercial, abundancia relativa, renovabilidad y alta eficiencia, permitiendo una baja generación de lodos, los cuales pueden ser biodegradados a través de un tratamiento asequible con un alto espectro de valorización.RESUM: Un dels processos més rellevants a les depuradores d’aigües potables i residuals és la coagulació-floculació, que dóna lloc a la desestabilització de sòlids en dissolució, per a la posterior generació de flocs mitjançant l’ús d’un agent coagulant. El sulfat d’alumini (Al2(SO4)3) és el coagulant més utilitzat a nivell internacional, per la seva eficiència i baix cost. No obstant això, el seu ús pot deixar una resta d’alumini a l’aigua i comportar una varietat de problemes de salut a causa de les seves característiques bioacumulables, que implica tant el deteriorament dels ecosistemes com problemes per a la salut humana. En aquest sentit, cal establir alternatives que evitin la permanència d’aquest metall pesat a l’ai-gua, de manera que el mucílag d’Opuntia ficus-indica esdevingui un coagulant natural de gran interès. Així mateix, és una alternativa sostenible per al tractament de l’aigua, donades les seves característiques de bio-degradabilitat, baixa toxicitat, cost comercial, relativa abundància, renovabilitat i alta eficiència, permetent una baixa generació de fangs, que poden ser biode-gradats mitjançant un tractament just i amb una alta valoració. espectre.COL000805811 páginasapplication/pdfengAsociación de Químicos e Ingenieros del Instituto Químico de SarriáBarcelona, Españahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/2.5/co/https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2Coagulant and flocculant effect of Opuntia ficus-indica in water treatmentEfecto coagulante y floculante de Opuntia ficus-indica en el tratamiento del aguaArtículo de investigaciónhttp://purl.org/coar/resource_type/c_2df8fbb1https://purl.org/redcol/resource_type/ARThttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAluminum sulfateCoagulation-flocculationMucilageOpuntia ficus-indicaWater resourceAfinidad12260211281AfinidadPublicationORIGINALRubioAinhoa_2024_Coagulant_Flocculant.pdfRubioAinhoa_2024_Coagulant_Flocculant.pdfArtículo de investigaciónapplication/pdf413036https://bibliotecadigital.udea.edu.co/bitstreams/42b5b99f-f77f-4601-84bd-13a5e722754c/downloadfad66dde9664e7b1c6318777a2f7edf5MD51trueAnonymousREADCC-LICENSElicense_rdflicense_rdfapplication/rdf+xml;
