Technological processes and human activities generate large amounts of waste, including streams of hazardous waste. This type of waste is a serious threat to the natural environment, therefore it is important to choose the right recovery process or disposal of this type of waste. The article presents legal aspects concerning the management of hazardous waste, methods of disposal and the structure of hazardous waste management in Poland. The criteria for the selection of technology have been presented as well as te...

The article presents the proposition of numerical simulation of the sedimentation process in sedimentation devices, including the method of defining and validating the numerical model of the suspension. The proposal includes a proposal to define a suspension in numerical simulation as a multiphase system with a polydisperse grain composition. The article contains information on the method of defining a multi-phase system based on grain composition of a suspension. A proposal for verification of the numerical model...

In many industrial processes, it is necessary to separate the solid phase from water or an aqueous solution. Gravitational methods are often used for this purpose (beneficial energetically), e.g. a sedimentation process. However, due to the low efficiency of the classical sedimentation process, it is necessary to intensify this process, e.g. by means of a coagulation process or flocculation process. The effectiveness of the coagulation process depends on a number of factors: dose and type of coagulant, type and co...
