Keywords: The coagulation-dissolved air flotation for removal of sodium oleate (NaOL) from synthetic manganese leaching
Coagulation-dissolved air flotation solution was focused in this study. It indicates that partially hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (HPAM), NaOL dosage
Sodium oleate and pH have a multiple effect on the removal efficiency of NaOL. The results represents a significant removal
Solution chemistry calculation efficiency of 97.6% NaOL was achieved under the optimal conditions of coagulation-dissolved air flotation by

dosage of 20 mg/L HPAM and 30 mg/L NaOL, pH 8.0. Solution pH has a significant effect on the distribution of
oleate species and Mn2+ species. The addition of HPAM facilitates the formation of OL− micelle and the de-
crease of critical micelle concentration (CMC). Oleate species primarily exist, containing Mn(OL)2(s), OL− and
HOL(aq). HPAM could cause the Zeta potential of NaOL to shift negatively. HPAM could decrease CMC of NaOL
and lead to a transition from three dimensional network structure to lamellar structure. NaOL can be removed by
coagulation-dissolved air flotation through the adsorption and bridge effect of HPAM chains on the floating
bubble surface.
