ABSTRACT
Magnetic sorption process is applied to real wastewater effluents from a Wastewater Treatment Plant. The complex media sorption is done by using different types of magnetic particles (resin and polymeric covered magnetite) giving good results for removing detergents, phosphates and COD and moderate results for the sorption of nitrogen and several heavy metals. Important kinetic parameters were obtained by data fitting for the pseudo first and second order, and for simplified Elovich models. Regeneration and reuse of the magnetic particles using a chemical-free method was also tested, as well as the effect of the concentration of the particles in the removal efficiency (which proved to be relevant).
