Colloidal Chemistry in Water Treatment : The Effect of Ca2+ on the Interaction between Humic Acid and Poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDADMAC)

The complexation of humic acid (HA), as a major component of natural organic matter (NOM) in raw water, with polycations is a key step in the water treatment process. At sufficiently high addition of a polycation, it leads to neutralization of the formed complexes and precipitation. In this work, we...

520 |a The complexation of humic acid (HA), as a major component of natural organic matter (NOM) in raw water, with polycations is a key step in the water treatment process. At sufficiently high addition of a polycation, it leads to neutralization of the formed complexes and precipitation. In this work, we studied the effect of the presence of Ca2+ ions on this process, with poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDADMAC) as a polycation. This was done by determining the phase behavior and characterizing the structures in solution by light scattering and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). We observe that with increasing Ca2+ concentration, the phase boundaries of the precipitation region shift to a lower PDADMAC concentration, which coincides well with a shift of the ζ-potential of the aggregates in solution. Light scattering shows the formation of aggregates of a 120-150 nm radius, and SANS shows that Ca2+ addition promotes a compaction in the size range of 10-50 nm within these aggregates. This agrees well with the observation of more densely packed precipitates by confocal microscopy in the presence of Ca2+. Following the precipitation kinetics by turbidimetry shows a marked speeding up of the process already in the presence of rather small Ca2+ concentrations of 1 mg/L. It can be stated that the presence of Ca2+ during the complexation process of HA with a polycation has a marked effect on phase behavior and precipitation kinetics of the formed aggregates. In general, the presence of Ca2+ facilitates the process largely already at rather low concentrations, and this appears to be linked to a compaction of the formed structures in the mesoscopic size range of about 10-50 nm. These findings should be of significant importance for tailoring the flocculation process in water treatment, which is a highly important process in delivering drinking water of sufficient quality to humans
