Abstract
Treating wastewater from the soda industry is a complicated and lengthy process, requiring a great deal of labor and financial resources. No method has yet been developed to eliminate the environmental damage caused by the soda industry entirely. The leakage of highly contaminated soda production wastewater into soils, groundwater, and surface water can cause corrosion of water infrastructure and deterioration of water quality for both drinking and agricultural use. Soil contamination from post-production wastewater leads to erosion and adversely affects vegetation. The work focused on the removal of chloride, sulfate, calcium, and sodium from soda production wastewater by precipitation using organic solvents such as isopropylamine (IPA), diisopropylamine (DIPA), propylamine (PA) and ethylamine (EA) in various proportions. Statistical modelling through Bayesian beta regression was used to select the amine most effectively removing the tested ions in precipitate form. The effect of precipitating agent dosage on the pH and conductivity of the solution was also investigated. Samples of wastewater obtained from the soda industry were characterized by high values of pH (up to 11.9), specific electrolytic conductivity (up to 128 mS cm−1), and high concentrations of sodium (up to 13 g L−1), chloride (up to 60 g L−1) and calcium (up to 24 g L−1) ions. Solvent-based precipitation showed that organic solvents are effective in precipitating salts from wastewater from the soda industry. Sulfate and chloride removal efficiencies of 85.1 and 34 %, respectively, were observed. Statistical analysis showed that isopropylamine was the most effective amine for ion removal.

Water Resources and Industry moves research to innovation by focusing on the role industry plays in the exploitation, management and treatment of water resources. Different industries use radically different water resources in their production processes, while they produce, treat and dispose a wide variety of wastewater qualities. Depending on the geographical location of the facilities, the impact on the local resources will vary, pre-empting the applicability of one single approach. The aims and scope of the journal include: -Industrial water footprint assessment - an evaluation of tools and methodologies -What constitutes good corporate governance and policy and how to evaluate water-related risk -What constitutes good stakeholder collaboration and engagement -New technologies enabling companies to better manage water resources -Integration of water and energy and of water treatment and production processes in industry
