Neste, observa-se a presen?a de corantes, tensoativos, amido, alco?is, ?cido ac?tico e outros constituintes, provenientes das v?rias etapas de processamento do material t?xtil. Diante disto, o tratamento destes efluentes ? necess?rio antes de lan??-los nos corpos de ?gua, pois podem causar altera??es f?sicoqu?micas desastrosas para o meio ambiente. Os tensoativos s?o subst?ncias muito utilizadas nos processos de separa??o e, neste trabalho, foram utilizados no tratamento de efluentes t?xteis, aplicando a extra??o por ponto de nuvem e a extra??o por flocula??o i?nica. Na extra??o de corante reativo por ponto de nuvem foi utilizado o tensoativo nonilfenol, com grau de etoxila??o 9,5. A avalia??o do processo foi realizada em termos da temperatura, concentra??o de tensoativo e de corante. Neste processo, a remo??o de corante alcan?ou 91%. A flocula??o i?nica ocorre devido ? presen?a de c?lcio, que reage com tensoativo ani?nico e forma tensoativos insol?veis, capazes de atrair a mat?ria org?nica atrav?s da adsor??o. Neste trabalho, a flocula??o i?nica, utilizando sab?o base, foi aplicada ao tratamento de efluente sint?tico contendo corantes pertencentes a tr?s classes: os diretos, reativos e dispersos. A avalia??o do processo foi realizada pela influ?ncia dos seguintes par?metros: concentra??o de tensoativo e de eletr?litos, velocidade de agita??o, tempo de repouso, temperatura e pH. A flocula??o do tensoativo foi realizada de dois modos: formando o floco no pr?prio efluente e formando o floco antes de mistur?-lo ao efluente. A remo??o do corante direto e reativo, quando o floco ? formado dentro do efluente t?xtil, foi de 97% e 87%, respectivamente. No caso em que o floco ? formado antes de adicion?-lo ao efluente a remo??o de corante direto e disperso alcan?ou 92% e 87%, respectivamente. Estes resultados mostram que os processos avaliados foram eficientes para remo??o de corantes em efluentes t?xteis. / The textile sector is one of the main contributors to the generation of industrial wastewaters due to the use of large volumes of water, which has a high organic load content. In these, it is observed to the presence of dyes, surfactants, starch, alcohols, acetic acid and other constituents, from the various processing steps of the textiles. Hence, the treatment of textile wastewater becomes fundamental before releasing it into water bodies, where they can cause disastrous physical-chemical changes for the environment. Surfactants are substances widely used in separation processes and their use for treating textile wastewaters was evaluated in this research by applying the cloud point extraction and the ionic flocculation. In the cloud point extraction was used as surfactant nonylphenol with 9.5 ethoxylation degree to remove reactive dye. The process evaluation was performed in terms of temperature, surfactant and dye concentrations. The dye removal reached 91%. The ionic flocculation occurs due to the presence of calcium, which reacts with anionic surfactant to form insoluble surfactants capable of attracting the organic matter by adsorption. In this work the ionic flocculation using base soap was applied to the treatment of synthetic wastewater containing dyes belonging to three classes: direct, reactive, and disperse. It was evaluated by the influence of the following parameters: surfactant and electrolyte concentrations, stirring speed, equilibrium time, temperature, and pH. The flocculation of the surfactant was carried out in two ways: forming the floc in the effluent itself and forming the floc before mixing it to the effluent. Removal of reactive and direct dye, when the floc is formed into textile effluent was 97% and 87%, respectively. In the case where the floc is formed prior to adding it to the effluent, the removal to direct and disperse dye reached 92% and 87%, respectively. These results show the efficience of the evaluated processes for dye removal from textile wastewaters.

Contamination with dyes and the presences of substances that are toxic to the environment characterize this difficult treatment effluent. Several processes have already been evaluated to remove and even degrade such pollutants are examples: coagulation-flocculation, biological treatment and advanced oxidative processes, but not yet sufficient to enable the recovery of dye or at least of the recovery agent. An alternative to this problem is the cloud point extraction that involves the application of nonionic surfactants at temperatures above the cloud point, making the water a weak solvent to the surfactant, providing the agglomeration of those molecules around the dyes molecules by affinity with the organic phase. After that, the formation of two phases occurred: the diluted one, poor in dye and surfactant, and the other one, coacervate, with higher concentrations of dye and surfactants than the other one. The later use of the coacervate as a dye and surfactant recycle shows the technical and economic viability of this process. In this paper, the cloud point extraction is used to remove the dye Reactive Blue from the water, using nonionic surfactant nonyl phenol with 9,5 etoxilations. The aim is to solubilize the dye molecules in surfactant, varying the concentration and temperature to study its effects. Evaluating the dye concentration in dilute phase after extraction, it is possible to analyze thermodynamic variables, build Langmuir isotherms, determine the behavior of the coacervate volume for a surfactant concentration and temperature, the distribution coefficient and the dye removal efficiency. The concentration of surfactant proved itself to be crucial to the success of the treatment. The results of removal efficiency reached values of 91,38%, 90,69%, 89,58%, 87,22% and 84,18% to temperatures of 65,0, 67,5, 70,0, 72,5 and 75,0?C, respectively, showing that the cloud point extraction is an efficient alternative for the treatment of wastewater containing Reactive Blue / A gera??o de efluente proveniente do processo de acabamento na industria t?xtil ? um grave problema ambiental e se transformou em objeto de estudo em diversos trabalhos cient?ficos. A contamina??o por corantes e a presen?a de subst?ncias que s?o t?xicas ao meio ambiente caracterizam este efluente de dif?cil tratamento. V?rios processos j? foram avaliados para remover e at? degradar tais poluentes s?o exemplos: a coagula??o-flocula??o, tratamento biol?gico e processos oxidativos avan?ados, mas ainda n?o foram suficientes para possibilitar a recupera??o do corante ou pelo menos do agente separador. Uma alternativa para este problema ? a extra??o por ponto nuvem que envolve a aplica??o de tensoativos n?o i?nicos a temperaturas acima do ponto de nuvem, tornando a ?gua um solvente fraco para o tensoativo, proporcionando a aglomera??o destas mol?culas ao redor do corante por afinidade a fase org?nica. Depois disso ocorre a forma??o de duas fases: uma chamada de dilu?da pobre em corante e tensoativo e a coacervato com concentra??o de corante e tensoativo bem maior que a outra fase. A utiliza??o posterior do coacervato como reciclo de corante e tensoativo mostra a viabilidade t?cnica e econ?mica do processo. Neste trabalho a extra??o por ponto nuvem ? utilizada para remover o corante Reactive Blue da ?gua utilizando tensoativo n?o-i?nico nonil fenol com 9,5 etoxila??es. O objetivo ? solubilizar as mol?culas de corante no tensoativo, variando-se a concentra??o deste e a temperatura para estudar seus efeitos. Avaliando a concentra??o de corante na fase dilu?da ap?s a extra??o ? poss?vel analisar vari?veis termodin?micas, construir isotermas de Langmuir, determinar o comportamento do volume de coacervato para uma concentra??o de tensoativo e temperatura, o coeficiente de distribui??o e a efici?ncia de remo??o de corante. A concentra??o de tensoativo mostrou-se fundamental para o sucesso do tratamento. Os resultados de efici?ncia de remo??o alcan?aram valores de 91,38%, 90,69%, 89,58%, 87,22% e 84,18% para temperaturas de 65,0, 67,5, 70,0, 72,5 e 75,0?C, respectivamente, mostrando que a extra??o por ponto nuvem ? uma alternativa eficiente para o tratamento de efluentes contendo Reactive Blue

During this step, which has a strong biological aspect, it is necessary to introduce oxygen supply for the maintenance of metabolic activity of the bacteria through the aerators. Aeration devices are responsible for most of the energy consumption in this stage. In this background, the influence of three aeration intensities (atmospheric air flow 3.5, 7.0 and 10.5 L.min-1) and the concentration of dissolved oxygen (DO) on the dimension of activated sludge flocs as well as on the efficiency of organic matter removal were assessed using a traditional activated sludge system which was fed with synthetic domestic wastewater. Samples were taken weekly from the three units that make up the system feed, aeration and storage tank in order to verify the Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD). It was established the process efficiency through a comparison between the initial and final COD. Besides the parameters already mentioned, this monitoring work on activated sludge batch system was also observed by Mixed Liquor Suspend Solids (MLSS), Volatile Suspend Solids (VSS), pH and temperature measures. The results have showed a maximum removal efficiency around 75% in the first aeration sequence and approximately 85% for the second and third one. For the first aeration, the DO concentration remained higher than 3.0 mg.L-1 and a diameter range from 10 to 60 μm was observed. In the second e third sequence, the DO concentration remained higher than 4.0 mg.L-1 with a diameter range of 10 until 200 μm. Although the sequence 1 and 2 have presented similar performances for organic matter removal, the sequence 2 promoted a regular floc size distribution and with lower values of Sludge Volumetric Index (SVI) meaning a better flocculating ability. In addition, the results reaffirmed what the literature has reported: higher DO concentrations produce flocs with greater dimensions / No tratamento de ?guas residu?rias, os sistemas de lodos ativados t?m sido uma tecnologia largamente aplicada como tratamento secund?rio. Durante essa etapa, a qual possui uma caracter?stica fortemente biol?gica, ? necess?rio o fornecimento de oxig?nio para a manuten??o da atividade metab?lica das bact?rias atrav?s de aeradores. Os dispositivos de aera??o s?o respons?veis pela maior parte do consumo de energia ao longo dessa fase. Nesse contexto, a influ?ncia de tr?s intensidades de aera??o (vaz?o de ar atmosf?rico de 3,5, 7,0 e 10, 5 L.min-1) e a concentra??o de oxig?nio dissolvido (OD) sobre a dimens?o de flocos de lodo ativado, e bem como sobre a efici?ncia de remo??o foram avaliadas utilizando um sistema tradicional de lodos ativados alimentado com efluente dom?stico sint?tico. Amostras foram retiradas semanalmente das tr?s unidades que compunham o sistema tanque de alimenta??o, de aera??o e de armazenamento para verificar a Demanda Qu?mica de Oxig?nio (DQO). A efici?ncia do processo foi estabelecida atrav?s da compara??o entre a DQO inicial e final. Al?m dos par?metros j? mencionados, este trabalho de monitoramento do sistema de lodos ativados de bancada foi observado tamb?m por meio de medi??es de S?lidos em Suspens?o Totais (SST) e Vol?teis (SSV), pH e temperatura. Os resultados mostraram uma efici?ncia m?xima de remo??o de quase 75% na primeira sequ?ncia de aera??o e aproximadamente 85% para a segunda e terceira sequ?ncias. Para a primeira aera??o, a concentra??o de OD manteve-se maior que 3,0 mg.L-1 e uma faixa de di?metro de 10 a 60 μm foi observada, enquanto que na segunda e terceira sequ?ncia, a concentra??o de OD permaneceu superior a 4,0 mg.L-1 com uma faixa de di?metro de 10 a 200 μm. Embora a sequ?ncia 2 e 3 tenham apresentado, ambas, desempenhos similares para remo??o de mat?ria org?nica, a sequ?ncia 3 promoveu uma distribui??o de tamanho de flocos mais regular e com baixos valores de ?ndices Volum?tricos do Lodo (IVL), configurando em uma melhor habilidade de sedimenta??o. Em adi??o, os resultados reafirmam o que literatura tem relatado, maiores concentra??es de OD produzem flocos com maiores dimens?es
