Abstract
Mechanical peat dewatering is an alternative to the traditional sun and wind drying method. However, a pretreatment of the peat is necessary to enhance the separation of the solid and liquid phases. The most promising method so far is the combination of pH lowering and addition of a polymer. The aim of the present study was to find a cheap, fast, and easy way to optimize the polymer dosage that is independent of peat type and mechanical treatment as stirring time, grinding, etc. The particle size distribution and the surface charge for a number of different peat types are tested
