Abstract
Petroleum compounds appear in the surface and underground water in increasing concentrations. This is due to the emergence of new risks associated with the production, transport, use, and disposal of hazardous waste substances. These pollutants have a strong toxic impact on the organism, hence they should be removed using the most effective methods. This paper deals with the removal of petroleum compounds from water using a combination of classical and membrane methods. Coagulation and reverse osmosis were applied. The study used model water, i.e. distilled water enriched with a mixture of diesel fuel and gasoline. The aim of the study was to determine the possibility of petroleum removal during the hybrid process. The model water was subject to the coagulation process using Al2(SO4)3·18H2O, then filtered and subjected to the reverse osmosis process. Determination of petroleum hydrocarbons in the model water was made after coagulation and reverse osmosis.
