Removal of NH₃ in Air Released from Rubber Latex Process Using Skim Serum Absorbent

Abstract:

The treatment of NH₃ releasing concentrated rubber latex to air was studied using skim serum in laboratory scale of bubble absorption reactor. The skim serum (pH 2.5 to 3) is a liquid waste from concentrated rubber latex. The concentration of NH₃ in air (300 to 1500 ppmv) and air flow rate (0.5 to 1.5 l/min) feeding into the reactor were measured for the effect of the treatment efficiency. At lower NH₃ concentration and air flow rate have resulted to higher NH₃ removal efficiency. Bubble absorption reactor can be effectively used and applied to remove NH₃ releasing from the concentrated rubber latex process to the air without any plugging of the skim rubber in the system. Skim serum waste liquid has the result in higher efficiency in NH₃ removal comparing to pure water usage. This study would be practically used as a guidance for the further design and operate to minimize waste and emission control in rubber industrial-scale system.
