Title: Flocculation of coal flotation refuse with polyethyleneoxide

Journal Article · · Sov. J. Water Chem. Technol.; (United States)
OSTI ID:6911023

The adsorption of high MW polyethylene oxide by negatively charged particles of flotation refuse from a coal washing plant and its effect on refuse flocculation have been investigated. A close correlation was demonstrated between the quantity of adsorbed polymer per unit of particle surface, the change in the particle zeta potential, and the degree of clarification of the suspension.
