Resumo Português:
O uso de coagulantes à base de plantas (coagulante natural) em tratamentos de efluentes tem potencial contra coagulantes inorgânicos utilizados comercialmente. Este trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar os coagulantes orgânicos hemiceluloses catiônicas (CH) - sintetizadas a partir da casca de amendoim - associadas ao tanino catiônico (TSG) - comercial - para coagulação/floculação como tratamento primário, seguido de separação sólido-líquido via sedimentação/flotação por ar (DAF). O ensaio foi realizado em jar test em efluente de uma indústria multinacional do setor de beneficiamento de grãos, localizada na cidade de Uberlândia-MG. Os diagramas de coagulação foram determinados pelo método de interpolação espacial de dados do modelo de regressão de Kringing e o teste de Tukey foi utilizado para avaliar a diferença nos resultados obtidos. Os pontos ótimos de eficiência de remoção de turbidez (TRE), superiores a 98%, foram alcançados para a associação TSG/CH com 200 mg L-1 (pH 10,72), 350 mg L-1 (pH 9,72), 500 mg L-1 (pH 9,56) na sedimentação. Para a separação por DAF, a associação de TSG/CH resultou em valores de TRE superiores a 95% nas dosagens de 350 mg L-1 (pH 9,59) e 500 mg L-1 (pH 7,92). Além disso, os resultados obtidos indicam que o uso associado de TSG/CH como auxiliar de coagulação, favoreceu o acoplamento bolha-partícula, resultando em menor volume de lodo, além disso, o CH expandiu a ação do TSG para a região básica.

Resumo Inglês:
The use of plant-based coagulants (natural coagulants) in wastewater treatments has potential advantages over the inorganic coagulants used commercially. This study evaluated organic coagulants cationic hemicelluloses (CH) synthesized from peanut shell and associated with commercial cationic tannin (TSG) for use as the primary coagulation/flocculation treatment, followed by solid-liquid separation via sedimentation/flotation by dissolved air (DAF). The assay was carried out in a jar test on effluent from a multinational industry in the grain processing sector, located in the city of Uberlândia-MG. Coagulation diagrams were determined using the data spatial interpolation method of the Kringing regression model and the Tukey test was used to assess the difference in the results obtained. The optimum removal points of turbidity removal efficiency (TRE), greater than 98%, were achieved for the TSG/CH association with 200 mg L-1 (pH 10.72), 350 mg L-1 (pH 9.72), 500 mg L-1 (pH 9.56) in sedimentation. For the separation by DAF, the association of TSG/CH resulted in TRE values greater than 95% at dosages of 350 mg L-1 (pH 9.59) and 500 mg L-1 (pH 7.92). Furthermore, the results indicate that the associated use of TSG/CH, a coagulation aid, favored the coupling of the DAF bubble-particle, resulting in a smaller volume of sludge. In addition, CH expanded the action of TSG to the basic region.
